The design is not strange, even used on other mid-range products
The first impression of this V23e is that it has a very eye-catching color scheme when there is a mix of pink tones that turn blue depending on the direction the light is reflected in. However, if you’ve been following the phone market in recent years, you probably won’t find anything strange with this color scheme anymore.
I agree that this combination makes the product look more impressive every time you take it out of your pocket or bring it to your ear to listen to a call, but I still hope that vivo has a breakthrough and new.
For people who have the opportunity to touch many phones like me, this clearly hasn’t created a real “wow” effect. But on the other hand, this is a product that costs less than 10 million dong, so we can’t ask for more anyway.
The frame of the device is made of plastic, the details are handled very carefully by the production team, so it feels good to hold, no need to touch the hand as well as when combined with the color-changing back, makes it more luxurious. .
The device is only 7.39mm thin and weighs only 172g, which can be considered as one of the thinnest and lightest smartphones in the segment.
The camera cluster continues to inherit its V series, with a rectangular shape and 3 vertically placed lenses.
From the writer’s point of view, this is one of the most delicately designed camera modules in the smartphone market today: it’s not too rough, still has highlights and especially the protective glass is covered with black so it looks “stable” instead of 3 big circles like black sugar pearls.
vivo V23e is equipped with a 6.44-inch AMOLED screen on the front, Full HD + resolution with 20: 9 display ratio. Unfortunately, this screen does not have a high 90Hz refresh rate, in return the machine is still equipped with an optical fingerprint sensor below the screen, so it is somewhat comforting.
Through a quick experience, this screen has a pretty good display quality, especially with high brightness so that I can use it outdoors in the sun easily. One point not satisfied is that this screen has a rather outdated waterdrop design, but because the selfie camera in this product is 50MP, the manufacturer may have no other way. So is putting a 50MP selfie camera in to make the screen have a water drop really worth it? Below are the answers.
The bright spot is on the front camera
Standing in the mid-range segment with a lot of competition, manufacturers always have to find ways to make their products stand out more, from youthful appearance to cameras to fully serve the needs. vivo is no exception when it comes to integrating 3 rear cameras for V23e, namely 64MP wide angle, 8MP ultrawide camera and 2MP macro camera.
Of course, vivo also understands that these numbers are still not convincing enough, so their strength lies in two other weapons: internal imaging technologies and the ability to selfie. Talking about photography technology in advance, vivo V23e is carefully invested to bring a good user experience. More specifically, although this is a mid-range product, vivo still focuses on integrating image stabilization as well as multi-frame noise reduction, so that shooting in low light conditions is better.
A few photos taken at night, most of which I took with the x2 zoom and even though it’s only a digital zoom, the image quality is very good and not blurred, especially the ability to focus in this low light condition. Very fast and accurate.
Not only that, vivo V23e also has a set of color filters, which I personally think is very impressive, some filters have an old-fashioned or burnt-out film effect that looks quite nostalgic. This can be considered a commendable point, helping users not need to spend more time editing in 3rd applications anymore.
Some more photos taken from the rear camera of the V23e:
Moving on to the selfie camera part, this turned out to be the bright spot for the whole device. Don’t take a look at the selfies, let’s take a look at the two pairs of photos below taken with the front and rear cameras, you will see that the 50MP quality in the V23e is not “on paper”:
Rear camera photo (left) and front camera photo (right).
Rear camera photo (left) and front camera photo (right).
Obviously, the quality of the front camera of this V23e is not inferior to the rear camera, if so, is it possible that the colors are lighter and if you zoom in deeply, you will see less detail. Anyway, from the writer’s point of view, the reproduction of images, contrast or dynamic range in a mid-range selfie camera like this is quite “terrible”.
In addition to the 50MP sensor, this vivo V23e also has the ability to focus on eyes instead of faces, so accuracy is increased. It can be said that in mid-range products, vivo V23e has achieved impressive results when it has both a high-resolution sensor of up to 50MP, but also integrates the ability to focus on eyes.
Sufficient performance, smooth gameplay, 44W fast charging
vivo V23e is equipped with a relatively powerful hardware in the segment, including MediaTek Helio G96 processor, an upgraded version of Helio G95, 8GB RAM (expandable to 12GB thanks to expandable RAM technology), with 128GB storage memory.
Tried through Asphalt 9 and Lien Quan Mobile, vivo V23e gives very smooth results and almost no lag occurs, even in the explosive effect phases when racing. It is quite unfortunate that the device has not turned on the High FPS mode in Lien Lien Mobile at the present time (maybe because the developer has not updated or optimized for this new device), but at the image setting level. High image, the machine still responds well, fps is stable at 30 during the game.
The performance manager when playing games with very intuitive display parameters so that users can know whether to increase performance or need to rebalance to save existing battery.
Despite its compact body, the V23e is still equipped with a 4,050mAh battery and it can maintain the “life” of the device within 1 day. In addition, if you forget to recharge the battery at night before going to bed, you don’t have to worry much because this phone supports fast charging up to 44W, so just plug in the charger and go brush your teeth, change clothes. everything will be ready before you step out of the house.
In general, vivo V23e is not really a comprehensive phone, but inside a product with this price range of about 8 million, there are still many commendable points, especially the extremely impressive front camera, which is not Not a single product in this segment can do it. If you are not bored by its “paint”, try once to touch the “soul” of this machine, maybe it will make you think differently and maybe be on the list worth buying on this occasion. end of this year.
