MIDRANGE POWERHOUSE

Following the launch of Vivo v30, Vivo has launched a successor catering to the mid-range segment. below Rs 30,000 with the v30e. Available in two striking variants – Silk Blue and Velvet Red – the device boasts impressive specifications.

For the review, we received the 8GB Silk Blue version with 256GB Storage weighing at 179gms. The Velvet Red version carries a slightly heavier weight of 188gms.

From the moment you lay eyes on it, the Vivo v30e captivates with its design and feel. Featuring a dual-tone back panel with 75% matte finish and rest with a glossy surface, it effectively resists fingerprint smudges while enhancing aesthetics. Emulating high-end devices, the v30e flaunts a curved screen, with a USB-C port and dual-SIM card slot positioned at the bottom and speakers flanking its sides. The power and volume buttons reside conveniently on the right side.

Vivo includes a 44W charger, along with a screen guard and a transparent mobile cover. Unfortunately, the screen guard proved to be flimsy, peeling off within the first week.

The device sports a generous 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a crisp 2,400x1,080 pixel resolution. Its in-display fingerprint sensor stands out for its swift responsiveness, a feature rarely seen in devices within this range. The screen is complemented by a peak brightness of 1,300 nits for comfortable outdoor viewing.
