vivo V23 5G

The Vivo V23 5G is a mid-range smartphone that excels in the selfie department, with a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and two dual-tone LEDs for spotlights. Selfie shots are captured at 12.5MP by default and look fantastic, with great detail, dynamic range, and colors. The wider selfie camera is also respectable but less impressive in low light. The phone's rear cameras, on the other hand, are a different story. The 64MP main camera captures good photos during the day, but sharpness is not great due to excessive sharpening. The ultrawide camera is barely decent, and the macro cam has decent detail for its small resolution. Low-light performance is also disappointing. The phone's video capabilities are solid, with the main camera capable of shooting 4K at 30fps. However, two-time zoom videos are disappointing due to over-sharpening. The ultrawide camera can capture videos in 1080p, but they're soft and dynamic range isn't stellar. The Vivo V23 5G starts at a more sensible price point than its pro sibling, but lacks features like stereo speakers and ingress protection found on other competitors. However, it has more appeal than the pro version, making it worth considering for those looking for a good mid-ranger with great looks and selfie prowess.
