Vivo V30e 5G Review: The Vivo smartphone journey has been impressive over the years with devices ranging from budget to premium models. However, the company has a greater user base in the mid-range market due to its eye-catching designs, impressive performance, and user experience. Earlier this year, the company launched the new Vivo V30 series, and now it has announced a new addition to the V-series family with the Vivo V30e. The smartphone was unveiled this week in attractive colour options and a unique matte yet glossy finish, making it look premium. The Vivo V30e was announced in the mid-range segment, where the competition is already very strong with powerful smartphones such as Poco X6 Pro, Nothing Phone 2a, OnePlus Nord CE 4, and others.
Nowadays, several smartphone brands are focusing on integrating AI-powered features into their devices, the Vivo V30e is a basic yet impressive smartphone which may be liked by several users who seek smooth performance without breaking the bank.

Therefore, in my opinion, it does not have any uniqueness in terms of smartphone design but it still checks all the style requirements.
On the front, the Vivo V30e 5G features a slim 6.78-inch 3D curved AMOLED display. The display offers up to 1300nits peak brightness which is adequate for high sunlight conditions. In terms of the viewing experience, you can never go wrong with a curved display. Additionally, the smartphone brings out stunningly realistic and vibrant colours but the HDR content was not available which several other mid-range smartphones provide. The smartphone also offers up to 120Hz refresh rate which makes the functioning of the device a breeze. But note that the predecessor supported similar display specs as the Vivo V30e.
The Vivo V30e 5G is a camera-centric smartphone, but does it live up to the hype? Well, the smartphone features a dual camera system which consists of a 50MP Sony IMX882 OIS main camera that manages to capture
