Pros and Cons

vivo X70

Strengths

The Vivo X70 Pro has a premium and rather compact design that feels lightweight and easy to wield.
It features an excellent curved AMOLED screen with a fast 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support, and impressive max brightness of up to 1000 nits.
The phone has an extensive camera setup with a gimbal-stabilized 50MP main cam, two telephotos (12MP x2 zoom and 8MP x5 periscope), and a 12MP ultra-wide cam.
The phone's battery life is excellent, scoring 123 hours of endurance rating, much more than the Pro Plus model.
The phone has a fast and reliable under-display fingerprint reader for biometric authentication.
The camera takes great still photos with impressive dynamic range, contrast, and detail, especially in good lighting conditions.

Weaknesses

The phone lacks waterproofing (IP68 rating) compared to the Pro Plus model.
It has a single speaker instead of stereo speakers, which earned a score of 'good' on loudness chart but lacked bass and mids.
The chipset is a MediaTek Dimensity C1200, which provides high-level performance but isn't quite flagship-grade, and can struggle to keep up with flagships in benchmarks.
Low-light photos from the telephoto cameras are soft and noisy, even with night mode enabled.
Selfies from the 32MP front-facing cam are disappointing, being soft and a bit noisy.
4K video quality is disappointing, with poor contrast and excessive brightness, but stabilized by the gimbal.

Oppo A80 5G

Strengths

At $369, the Oppo A80 5G is a bargain, particularly when you consider that it is technically drop proof.
The phone has a robust build with a 360-degree damage-proof armor body, which can withstand drops of up to 1.4M on every side and corner.
It has a fast refresh rate (120Hz) and high brightness level (up to 1000 nits), making the user interface seem smoother and scrolling faster.
The phone's battery life is impressive, with a capacity that will last for at least four years, retaining up to 80% of its charge over time.
It supports Oppo's Super VOOC charging up to 45W, although the fast charger is not included in the box.

Weaknesses

The phone has a relatively low-quality camera with AI editing functions that are not great and can even introduce new issues (e.g., adding unwanted objects).
It only comes with a 720p display, which is expected given its budget price point.
The processor is on the lower end in terms of performance, and it's actually a bit worse than the A79 in CPU benchmarks.
You don't get the fast charger in the box, which feels like an unnecessary extra cost.
It only comes with 2 years of operating system updates, which seems short given its robust build and long-lasting battery life.

vivo X70

The Vivo X70 Pro is a premium mid-ranger that offers a unique blend of features at an affordable price. While it may not match the flagship model's specifications, this phone has its own strengths and weaknesses. In terms of design, the X70 Pro feels premium with its frosted glass-like back made of fluoride. It's lightweight and easy to wield, but lacks ingress protection. The display is a curved 6.56-inch AMOLED with a 1080p resolution and fast 120Hz refresh rate, which provides smooth swiping and scrolling. The camera setup is the phone's most impressive feature, featuring a gimbal-stabilized 50MP main cam, two telephotos (12MP x2 zoom and 8MP x5 periscope zoom), and a 12MP ultra-wide cam. Photos from the main camera are excellent with balanced color rendition, natural foliage, and good dynamic range. However, they can be softer than some competitors. The phone's performance is also commendable, thanks to its Mediatek Dimensity C1200 chipset, which provides high-level performance despite not being flagship-grade. Battery life is excellent, with the 4,450mAh battery lasting up to 123 hours in our tests. However, there are some trade-offs to consider. The phone lacks stereo speakers and waterproofing, and its audio quality lags behind competitors. Video recording capabilities also leave much to be desired, with only the main camera capable of shooting 4K resolution at 60fps. Despite these shortcomings, the Vivo X70 Pro is still a compelling option for those seeking a camera-centric mid-ranger at an affordable price. Its excellent battery life, versatile camera setup, and premium design make it worth considering for anyone looking for a good deal in this category.

Oppo A80 5G

The Oppo A80 5G is a budget-friendly smartphone that boasts an impressive robust build and solid battery life. With its 360-degree damage-proof armor body, this phone can withstand drops from up to 1.4 meters on every side and corner. Priced at $369, it offers good value for those seeking a reliable device without breaking the bank. However, its camera capabilities and performance may not be as impressive, particularly with AI editing features that fall short of expectations.
