The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 boasts several upgrades over its predecessor, including a more powerful chipset and improved cameras. The phone's main camera features a 50-megapixel sensor with dual-pixel autofocus, while the telephoto zoom offers a 10-megapixel sensor with three times magnification. The ultra-wide-angle lens remains unchanged from the previous model. Image quality is generally good during the day, with pleasing results and plenty of detail. Portrait mode performs well, especially when using the main camera, which offers excellent subject separation. However, shadows can appear darker in night shots, but automatic night mode processing helps to improve this issue. Video recording capabilities are also enhanced, with the ability to capture 8K resolution footage at 24 frames per second. However, 4K video is a more practical and storage-efficient option, which delivers good detail and plenty of sharpening. Electronic stabilization is available in all resolutions and performs well, smoothing out camera shake. Other notable features include a wider cover screen, faster charging capabilities (up to 15W wirelessly), and the ability to reverse-charge other devices. The phone's price tag may be steep, but it remains one of the most cutting-edge foldable phones on the market, with no direct competitors in the global market. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 is a solid upgrade over its predecessor, offering improved cameras, faster charging, and a more powerful chipset. While not perfect, it's a worthwhile investment for those seeking the latest and greatest in foldable technology.
The Vivo V40E is a mid-range smartphone that boasts an impressive 5500 mAh battery capacity and 80W super fast charging capabilities. In this test review, we put the phone's charging speed to the test. With a fully dead battery (1% charge), we connected the phone to its 80W charger and let it run for 15 minutes, after which it reached 46%. The charging speed was remarkably fast, considering the phone's size and capacity. At 25 minutes, the battery had reached 67%, and by 35 minutes, it had climbed to 87%. The phone continued to charge quickly, hitting 96% by the 40-minute mark. After a further three minutes, the battery finally hit 100%. The entire charging process took just 43 minutes, a testament to the power of Vivo's 80W super fast charging technology. In our test conditions (21°C room temperature), the phone's charging speed was impressive, and we would expect similar results in everyday use. While the battery size is substantial, the phone's overall design is still sleek, with a glass back and plastic frame, featuring dual cameras and a 50MP primary sensor. While this review focused solely on the battery charging test, it's clear that the Vivo V40E has plenty to offer, including its speedy charging capabilities. If you're in the market for a mid-range smartphone with impressive specs, the Vivo V40E is definitely worth considering.
