    Verdict

    The Vivo V50 Lite 5G in the 8GB + 256GB configuration is a mid-range smartphone with a 6.77-inch, 120Hz AMOLED display, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor. Key pros include a massive 6500mAh battery with 90W FlashCharge support, an ultra-slim 7.79mm design, IP65 water/dust resistance, a durable build, a 50MP main camera with an 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 32MP selfie camera. Potential cons include the use of UFS 2.2 storage, a plastic composite back cover material, and the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack or an official global NFC version (availability is market dependent).
