vivo X90 Pro+

The Vivo X90 Pro+ is an exceptional flagship smartphone that boasts impressive features. One notable aspect is its battery life, which has seen significant improvement over last year's model. The phone also comes with incredibly fast charging capabilities, making it a standout in this department. Camera performance is another area where the Vivo X90 Pro+ excels.

However, its ability to produce vivid colors and a high level of detail makes up for this lack of refresh rate adjustment. While some competitors may have higher zoom levels than the Vivo X90 Pro+, its 2x telephoto camera still delivers excellent results.

While some minor drawbacks exist, such as limited refresh rate adjustment and lower zoom levels, they do not detract significantly from the overall experience.
