The Vivo V29 5G is a mid-range smartphone that boasts an intriguing design, stunning AMOLED display, extended battery life, and quick charging options. The phone's glass front and back are complemented by a metal frame, with a vibrant green color effect on the back.

vivo Y29 5G

I recently got my hands on the Vivo Y29 5G, a smartphone that promises a lot but delivers little. With a starting price of around Rs 15,000, I expected more from this device. The phone's design is decent, with a diamond-black finish and a sleek aluminum frame, but things take a turn for the worse when it comes to performance. The processor feels slow, even for basic tasks like browsing and social media, and the camera is underwhelming, producing average photos that don't impress.
