Vivo has introduced the V25 series in the Philippines, and it contains three devices: the V25, V25e, and the V25 Pro. Although the three phones’ specifications range slightly from one another, they all boast impressive photography capabilities and offer solid performance and a sleek design. For this review, we’ll be focusing on the entry-level vivo V25. Despite the lack of “Pro” in the device’s name, it’s still quite a powerful gadget. Color-changing design, excellent camera, and lengthy battery life. Now that the holidays are near, though, does that sound impressive enough to warrant consideration as a possible gift? Here are the top reasons why we know you’ll love this phone!
Unique Design
The V25’s ability to change color with its built-in Photochromic 2.0 technology is a standout feature. Its standard color scheme, Sunrise Gold, is a warm yellow. The rear of the phone is black, but it turns a bright orange-red when exposed to sunshine or ultraviolet radiation. Covering a portion of it and placing it in direct sunlight can also result in interesting designs. This is a temporary color change. Once you wait a few minutes, the phone will revert to its original gold hue.
Premium-Looking HD Display
The display measures in at 6.44 inches. It has a premium design that should appeal to many consumers. Display-wise, the vivo V25 has an AMOLED panel with Full HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. The AMOLED display makes the V25 a perfect companion for marathon viewing sessions, as it produces both vivid colors and deep blacks.
Powerful Processor
The V25 has 8GB of RAM and a MediaTek Dimensity 900 CPU. In addition, the processor is 5G-ready, allowing users to take advantage of increased mobile data rates and decreased latency in 5G-enabled areas. The V25 is a great device for playing games. Popular multiplayer online battle arena games like Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and Wild Rift work smoothly at higher settings on the phone, with no lag.
Camera Capabilities
The V25 has 64MP primary, 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro rear cameras and a 50MP front camera. The 64MP main camera captures vivid daytime photographs. Night Mode helps the phone’s main camera perform at night. Its optical and visual image stabilization improves low-light photographs and Ultra Stabilization works even better. The phone’s ultrawide camera takes good daytime photos. The 2MP macro takes good daytime photos but blurry indoor ones. Finally, a 50MP selfie camera. It takes excellent selfies.
Battery Life
The 4,500mAh battery inside this phone is large enough to endure through a full day of use and then some. The V25 also supports a quick 44W charge in case you forget to charge your phone the night before. As a result, it takes only about 30 minutes to charge the phone from zero to sixty percent. Given the size of the battery, a full charge shouldn’t take too long.
Final Verdict
The vivo V25 doesn’t just boast impressive specifications; it also delivers in practice. The phones stand out for their color-changing design, but they also deliver in terms of speed and battery life. Its biggest feature, though, is its high-quality cameras. The front-facing camera in particular takes stunning stills and smooth videos.
If you’re in the market for a new Android phone this Christmas and its price tag of PHP 23,999 appeals to you, the vivo V25 is a wonderful option to consider if you care about aesthetics and have a high standard for your front-facing camera.
