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.

Oppo Reno12 Pro

The Oppo Reno12 Pro is a formidable smartphone that boasts impressive upgrades over its predecessors. A stunning display, a very capable camera system, and a relatively powerful chipset come together to create a compelling package. The addition of stereo speakers further enhances the overall experience. While design preferences may vary, this phone is certainly worth considering for those in the market for a new device. Its long battery life, decent performance, and excellent cameras make it a strong contender in the smartphone landscape.
