The Vivo Y21T is the latest addition to the Y series lineup, boasting a 6.51-inch LCD screen, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chipset, and a massive 5,000mAh battery. As a budget gaming phone, it's designed for casual gaming enthusiasts. Design-wise, the Y21T has a slim body made of glossy polycarbonate material that changes colors when moved towards different angles. The device features a triple-camera setup at the top left corner, a slightly broad chin on the front, and a notch at the top with a call speaker. The phone's design looks premium but is prone to fingerprint smudges. The display is good for casual use, with vivid and accurate color reproduction. However, audio quality is compromised due to single downward-firing speakers that distort at maximum volume. Under the hood, the Y21T runs on Funtouch OS 12 based on Android 11, offering a customizable interface with some bloatware. The phone has a Jovi Home Ultra Game Mode and an eSport mode for enhanced gaming experience. Performance-wise, the device handles basic tasks well but stutters when switching apps. Gaming performance is decent, with minimal stutters in lighter games like Asphalt 9, but some details in graphics are grainy. Battery life is impressive, lasting a day or two on moderate usage, and charging takes about an hour and 30 minutes. The cameras are a triple setup of 50MP main, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensors, producing decent images with good lighting, but subpar low-light shots. Overall, the Vivo Y21T offers good battery life, trendy design, and average performance for an entry-level phone. While it's challenging to recommend at its price point of PHP 10,199, it's a solid daily driver if budget isn't an issue.
The Vivo V30 Lite is a mid-range smartphone that promises to deliver a smooth and fast performance with a stunning display and camera. After putting the device through its paces, I can confidently say that it lives up to the hype. The phone's design is sleek and elegant, featuring a glass front and back, and a plastic frame in two colors: Crystal Black and Leather Purple. The phone is IP54-rated, making it dust and splash resistant. The 6.67-inch AMOLED display is bright and vibrant, with excellent contrast and color accuracy. Performance-wise, the Vivo V30 Lite is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 5G chipset, an octa-core processor with a clock speed of 2.2 GHz. Paired with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage, this phone can handle multitasking, gaming, and 5G connectivity with ease. The camera setup on the back features a 50 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultra-wide lens, and a depth sensor. While the main camera takes decent photos in good lighting conditions, low-light performance could be better. The ultra-wide lens is useful for capturing expansive landscapes, but video recording is limited to 1080p at 30 fps. The phone's battery life is also commendable, with a 5,000 mAh battery that can last a full day of moderate usage. Fast charging capabilities enable the phone to go from 0-100% in just 30 minutes. Overall, the Vivo V30 Lite is a great mid-range smartphone with premium features, including a stunning display and camera, smooth performance, and decent battery life. If you're looking for a premium experience at an affordable price, this phone is definitely worth considering.
