OnePlus Ace 3

In a bid to keep up with the competition, OnePlus has launched its latest mid-range offering, the Ace 3, powered by the Snapdragon Agent 2 processor. The phone's design may look familiar, but it boasts some notable upgrades over its predecessor. With a focus on delivering a smoother gaming experience and improved display quality, the Ace 3 seems to have taken inspiration from other brands in the same price range. But does it finally deliver what we've been expecting? Let's dive in and find out.

vivo V40 5G

The Vivo V40 5G is a solid mid-range smartphone with a sleek design and impressive battery life. The device features a 6.44-inch AMOLED display, a dual-camera setup with a 50MP primary sensor, and a quad-core processor. The camera system produces excellent images, particularly in bright lighting conditions, with the Zeiss natural mode offering a more realistic tone. The phone's performance is smooth, thanks to its energy-efficient Snapdragon chipset, and the battery life is outstanding, easily lasting a full weekend on a single charge. Charging is quick, too, with 80W wired charging available. The camera app offers various modes, including a 50MP ultra-wide-angle shooter and a dedicated macro mode. However, the phone's design is a bit of a mixed bag. While it looks good, it feels plasticky and lacks the premium feel that some users might expect from a mid-range device. Additionally, the absence of wireless charging and IP68 water resistance might be a drawback for some. The FunTouch OS 11, Vivo's custom interface, can take getting used to, but overall, the V40 5G is an excellent value proposition. With its long battery life, decent camera performance, and snappy performance, it's a great option for those looking for a reliable mid-range smartphone without breaking the bank. Overall, the Vivo V40 5G is a solid choice for anyone seeking a reliable and feature-rich mid-range device. Its impressive battery life, good camera performance, and smooth performance make it a worthwhile consideration in its price segment.
