Third-party reviews

What we like about vivo V40e (8GB + 256GB)

  • Sleek and premium 3D curved design that is exceptionally slim (7.49mm) and lightweight (183g)
  • Vibrant 6.77-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with high peak brightness for good outdoor visibility
  • Impressive 5,500mAh battery life that easily lasts over a full day of moderate-to-heavy use
  • Fast 80W charging capable of reaching a full charge in under 50 minutes
  • Strong primary camera performance in daylight and high-quality 50MP selfie camera
  • Innovative 'Aura Light' ring that provides adjustable soft lighting for better nighttime portraits
  • IP64 rating for decent dust and water splash resistance

What we don't like about vivo V40e (8GB + 256GB)

  • Software comes with significant pre-installed bloatware and frequent unwanted notifications
  • MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset offers average performance compared to more powerful competitors in this price segment
  • Lacks a dedicated telephoto/zoom lens, relying on digital cropping instead
  • 8MP ultrawide camera produces noticeably lower quality and less detailed images than the main sensor
  • The curved display can lead to occasional accidental touch inputs
  • Plastic frame and back panel are prone to scratches and fingerprints
  • No NFC support in some regional variants

Verdict

The vivo V40e 5G (8GB + 256GB) is a mid-range smartphone featuring a 6.77-inch, 120Hz curved AMOLED display and a slim, lightweight design with an IP64 rating for dust and water resistance. It is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor and a substantial 5,500mAh battery with 80W FlashCharge support. Photography is handled by a 50MP main rear camera with OIS and an 8MP ultrawide lens, complemented by a 50MP Eye-AF selfie camera, both capable of 4K video recording. Key pros include the excellent battery life, fast charging, vibrant curved display, and slim premium feel, while common cons point to average performance compared to some competitors in the same price range, the lack of a telephoto lens, and the presence of some unremovable bloatware in the Funtouch OS 14 interface.
