Vivo V40 Lite competes with a number of products in the same price segment such as Samsung Galaxy A35, Oppo Reno12 F, Xiaomi Redmi 13 Pro or iPhone 11.
+ Advantages:
- Youthful, slim and light design.
- Long battery life, fast charging.
- High durability.
+ Limitations:
- The frame is finished only in plastic.
- Processor has average performance.
- Not equipped with ultra wide angle camera.
Vivo V40 Lite has a youthful, square appearance. The titanium silver version has a similar color to the natural titanium color on the iPhone 15 Pro Max product line. In addition, the device also has 2 other color options including purple and black. The device is 7.79mm thin and weighs 188g, providing a relatively comfortable feeling when holding and using with one hand.
The downside is that the entire frame and back of the device are made of plastic. The edges are glossy, making it easy for dust and fingerprints to stick during use.
In return, the body is still solidly finished, not creaky. Vivo said that this model has been tested with more than 32,000 drops and experienced many different temperature environments from -20 to 50 degrees Celsius. This is to create a product with a durable body, limiting the impact of external impacts. In addition, the device also meets the IP64 water and dust resistance standard, with the ability to touch even when hands are wet.
Vivo V40 Lite has a camera system including a 50MP main lens and a 2MP depth lens. The device is not equipped with an ultra-wide-angle lens like many other products in the same segment. The device integrates Aura AI light, supporting color temperature customization depending on each lighting condition.
The selfie camera has a resolution of 32MP, integrated with many beauty features and support for posing when taking photos. The device also has integrated AI to support image editing, including AI object removal to remove unwanted parts of the image or AI photo enhancement to help recreate old photos more sharply.
The Vivo 40 Lite's screen is 6.67 inches in size, using an AMOLED panel with a maximum brightness of 1,800 nits. The display quality of this screen is relatively good, with wide viewing angles, bright colors, and can be easily used outdoors in the sun.
The device is equipped with a Snapdragon 685 processor, 8GB RAM capacity, expandable up to 16GB RAM. This is not a chip with too strong performance compared to competitors in the same segment. Tested with some games such as Lien Quan Mobile or PUBG Mobile, the device can still play at 60fps with medium-high graphics settings. However, this product will not be suitable for heavy tasks such as playing high-graphic games or editing videos with many complex effects.
The battery that comes with the device has a capacity of 5,000mAh, supporting 80W fast charging technology. This is also the device with the highest fast charging capacity in the mid-range segment.
With a large battery capacity and an energy-efficient processor, the Vivo V40 Lite's battery life can last up to 1.5 days. Vivo said the device has undergone a test of 20,000 times of plugging and unplugging, fully charging and discharging once a day for more than 1,600 cycles, equivalent to 4 years of use.
Vivo V40 Lite is sold in the Vietnamese market at a price of 8.49 million VND. The device competes directly with a number of products in the same price segment such as Samsung Galaxy A35, Oppo Reno12 F, Xiaomi Redmi 13 Pro or iPhone 11.
