Vivo V50 5G : Two Android for twoNot long after the world’s fastest man broke the world record in 2009, being link with the latest smartphones has become one of life’s certainties.
It doesn’t shout for attention, you won’t pick it up and put it down, but you’ll like holding it when you do pick it up.
It has a crisp display, a sleek design, support for 5G and a camera system that’s smarter than you’d think in this price range, making the V50 5G classic Vivo — stylish yet useful.
But is there enough here to help it break free from the pack? Let’s break it down.
Chic Styles for Exchanging Vows in Style
Design The Vivo V50 5G is a looker, first and foremost. Vivo seems to have found a new route for understated elegance.
The glass back glistens without being gaudy and the cupped shape is comfortable to hold for extended periods.
And it’s genuinely lightweight, unlike the bricks that we’ve seen from a number of other handsets in recent times.
The camera module on the back is neatly tucked away in the top corner too, not shouting for attention — just super clean, balanced and well-considered.
The device is available in two elegant colours including Midnight Black and Ice Blue, catering to working professionals and trendsetters.
Eye-Care Display That Reads Like Paper Want to read more?
V50 5G comes with a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution that has a 120Hz refresh rate. And yes, I can tell you, it lives up to the hype.
Whether you’re binge-watching your favorite series, scrolling through Instagram, or just surfing the web, the display feels rich, vibrant and easy on the eyes.
The color accuracy here is good, brightness gets impressive even in the day light, and they’ve managed to minimize the bezels so you have more screen to enjoy. Vivo has clearly focused on the quality of the screen here, and that’s evident.
Performance: Smooth, Quick and Smart
Under the hood, it is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip, coupled with up to 8GB RAM and 128/256GB storage.
This isn’t going to be a powerhouse for hardcore gamers, but it’ll easily tackle day-to-day tasks.
Multitasking, app-switching or even lightweight gaming — it all flies. The 5G compatibility means you get faster downloads and some future-proofing.
The show is run by FunTouch OS based on Android 14 and though it still comes with some bloatware, it has been polished more and is a more smooth and easy to use interface.
Camera That’s Better Than You Think
It clicks some impressively good images both in daylight and indoors thanks to its 64MP primary sensor paired with a 2MP depth sensor.
Vivo has also fine-tuned its image processing to showcase vibrant colors without going too far.
Where the Z1 does shine is the camera: portrait mode is great, edge detection is solid and low light shots are okay with Vivo’s AI-boosted Night mode.
The 16MP front camera does a great job of capturing your image in a clear and more natural-looking way, ideal for video calling or quick updates to your Instagram feed.
It is not pretending to be a professional camera replacement — but for most users, it is more than that.
Battery That Keeps You Going
A massive 5,000mAh battery ensures you can easily get through a day and a half with normal usage. Streaming, browsing and using social media shouldn’t drain it too quickly.
And on those occasions when you need to top it off, 44W fast charging will get you from 0 to 50% in approximately 30 minutes.
That’s a serious win for users who are frequently on the go.
