What we don't like about vivo V27e (12GB + 256GB)

  • Underpowered Helio G99 chipset struggles with heavy gaming and occasional stuttering

Verdict

The Vivo V27e (12GB + 256GB) is a mid-range smartphone built around its portrait photography capabilities, featuring a 64MP OIS main rear camera with a unique Aura Light ring flash and a 32MP front camera. It is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 4G processor and boasts a slim, eye-catching design with a 6.62-inch 120Hz Sunlight AMOLED display for a smooth visual experience. Key pros include a premium, slim build with an IP54 dust and water resistance rating, the vivid 120Hz AMOLED display, the reliable 4,600mAh battery with rapid 66W FlashCharge support, and the decent performance for general use. Primary drawbacks are the lack of 5G connectivity, the absence of a headphone jack and stereo speakers, the limited utility of the secondary 2MP cameras, and the potential for a choppy 120Hz refresh rate due to the processor's limitations.
