Recently, Vivo launched its X80 series in India. You have two new phones up for grabs – the VivoX80 and Vivo X80 Pro. VivoX80 and VivoX80 Pro claim to deliver best-in-class photography experience along with premium specs and features. The phone is priced above Rs 50k and comes with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, 4700mAh battery, quad camera setup and more.

But how does it perform? Is this smartphone worth its price? By answering all these questions, today I have brought a review of Vivo X80 Pro smartphone for all of you, in which I am going to tell you all the advantages, disadvantages of the smartphone as well as what is special about this smartphone, so let’s start. Today’s review…..

attractive design factor
In terms of design, the X80 Pro carries on the legacy of its predecessor with its strong build quality and attractive design factor.
It has a design that attracts you from the very first glance. The smartphone comes in a single Cosmic Black color variant and has a matte finish on the back with AG fluorite coating. This coating helps the phone not to get dirty even in the summer season when your hands are sweaty.

There is a slight disappointment when you hold the smartphone in hand as the weight of the smartphone is 219 grams and it feels quite heavy in the hand. It has a thickness of 9.1mm which doesn’t make it greasy, so it feels thick in your hand.

• The right and left side frames are curvy while the top and bottom are flat frames. The right side houses a power button and volume rocker while the bottom edge houses a USB Type-C port, primary microphone, dual SIM slot and primary loudspeaker.
  There is a small selfie camera cutout on the front side at the top of the 6.78-inch OLED display panel.
• VivoX80 Pro is IP68 rated for underwater resistance of up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes, so one need not worry if the smartphone falls in a bucket of water. If the appliance gets wet, wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth.

AMOLED LTPO Display Panel

• Vivo X80 Pro sports a 6.78-inch Quad HD+ E5 10-bit AMOLED LTPO display panel. Large screen size provides good viewing angles and large views.
• The 120Hz refresh rate makes scrolling smooth but I found them a bit rough compared to Samsung’s S22 series displays.
• It supports touch sampling rate of 300Hz which means it is ultra-responsive to touch. Vivo has added Gorilla Glass 6 protection on top of the screen to protect it from damage.
• There is an in-display 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor which is fast and efficient.

special thing in the room

• Vivo X80 Pro has a quad-camera setup on the back. This includes a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 48MP ultrawide camera, a 12MP 2x portrait lens, and an 8MP periscope lens with LED flash.
  The camera of Vivo phone is one of its main features as the company markets this series for its photography prowess. The main camera of the smartphone captures amazing pictures. The dynamic range of the image is good and shooting in direct sunlight gives clear images.
• 48MP ultrawide sensor covers a huge area and gives good visual shots. The 5x zoom works well in capturing detailed images. It can zoom up to 60x but it won’t be much useful. The lens has autofocus which means you can click good close-up shots. Vivo X80 Pro has the best low-light photography performance in the segment.
  Vivo X80 Pro has a 32MP camera on the front for selfie. Selfie Lens takes with many filters and effects to make your skin look extra beautiful and glowing.

Full charge in 40 minutes

• In terms of battery life, the Vivo X80 Pro gets an upgrade over the X70 series. It packs a 4700mAh battery, which means an additional 200mAh. This was needed as the latest chipsets also require an increased battery.
• The battery gives a runtime of around 12 hours. The 80 Pro comes with an 80W Flash Charge adapter. It takes about 40 minutes for the phone to charge from 0 to 100%.
  There is also a provision of 50W wireless charging which can charge the device from 0 to 100% in 1 hour.

Should you buy Vivo X80 Pro?
The Vivo X80 Pro is a phone for those who require best-in-class camera capabilities. If you are a premium user looking for a great camera experience, fast processor and fast charging, this one can meet all your needs. Although, it has bloatware and is expensive but it is for those who want to show off their premium smartphone and are ready to pay a big price for it.
