Are you in search of a beautiful phone? If so, you are in the right place because we are talking about the Xiaomi Civi 2: one of the most beautiful devices released this year. In the midrange segment, several smartphone manufacturers are focusing on design because people appreciate purchasing beautiful devices with a great quality price ratio. But the latest Xiaomi mid-ranger is not the only one with a stunning design. Among the other ones released in the last period and belonging to the same price range, there is Vivo V25 Pro. We already compared the latest Civi to the OPPO Reno8 5G, another very beautiful phone. Now, we think it is time for a comparison between the main specifications of the Xiaomi Civi 2 and the Vivo V25 Pro.

Vivo V25 Pro vs Xiaomi Civi 2

Design

The Xiaomi Civi 2 has a very refined design, as already mentioned, it is one of the best in this aspect. It is built with premium materials including aluminum for the frame and glass for the rear side, protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It is one of the thinnest phones out there as it is just 7.2 mm thick, and it is even one of the most lightweight with a weight of just 172 grams. Last but not least, it is the first Android phone with something similar to the Dynamic Island by Apple: indeed, it has a pill shaped punch hole placed centrally on the upper part of the display. The Vivo V25 Pro is another beautiful phone with its glass back and a color changing rear cover when exposed to UV rays (such as under direct sunlight). But it is not able to compete with its rival in this comparison.

Display

If we consider the specs on the paper, the Xiaomi Civi 2 has a superior display. It is an AMOLED panel able to show up to one billion colors and is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It has a diagonal of 6.55 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, Dolby Vision support, and a peak brightness of 1,000 nits, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. On the Vivo V25 Pro, you can find an AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.56 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2376 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, a peak brightness of 1,300 nits, and an in-display fingerprint reader. These devices are not equipped with stereo speakers and they do not feature 3.5 mm jacks, so you can only rely on an adapter or wireless earbuds.

Specs & Software

When it comes to the hardware, the Xiaomi Civi 2 is the winner. It is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 mobile platform built with a 4 nm production process and running at a max frequency of 2.4 GHz (it has an octa-core architecture), paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage. The Vivo V25 Pro has a faster UFS 3.1 internal storage, but the chipset is inferior: a Dimensity 1300 by Mediatek built with a 6 nm production process and with an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex A78 CPU running at a max frequency of 3 GHz, three Cortex A78 CPUs running at 2.6 GHz, four Cortex A55 CPUs running at 2 GHz, and a Mali G77 MC9 GPU. Alongside the Dimensity 1300, there are up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of storage. These phones run Android 12 out of the box and they are supposed to get at least two major updates to the next Android versions.

Camera

The rear camera departments of these devices are very different. The main camera found on the Vivo V25 Pro is more interesting not only due to its 64 MP resolution but especially due to the presence of optical stabilization. On the other hand, the Xiaomi Civi 2 lacks OIS but comes with a better 20 MP ultrawide camera. Last but not least, the Civi has a superior front camera setup including two sensors with 32 MP resolutions; one of them is an ultrawide camera and there is also a front-facing LED flash with each flash sporting two LEDs.

Battery

With the Vivo V25 Pro, you can obtain a longer battery life in several scenarios due to the presence of a bigger battery: the battery capacity of this phone is 4830 mAh. The Xiaomi Civi 2 has just 4500 mAh, so it is unlikely to provide a comparable battery life. The charging speeds are more or less the same because these phones feature similar charging technologies.

Price

The starting price of the Vivo V25 Pro for the Indian market roughly translates into €440/$432 at the actual change, while the Xiaomi Civi 2 starts from €350/$344 at the actual change in the Chinese market. Which one would you pick?

The post Vivo V25 Pro vs Xiaomi Civi 2: Specs Comparison appeared first on Gizmochina.

vivo launched a new flagship phone for the second half of the year, the vivo V25 Pro about a week ago. It is placed in a segment where the competition has stiffened over the past few weeks, and there are already great phones like the Nothing Phone (1), OnePlus 10R, OPPO Reno8, iQOO Neo 6 in this price segment.

We already compared the V25 Pro to the Nord 2T a few days ago and today, let’s take a closer look at how the vivo flagship fares in front of another OnePus model, the OnePlus 10R. While the OnePlus device started off at a more expensive price tag in India, over the past few months, the device has seen good discounts, making it even cheaper than the V25 Pro.

The vivo model comes with a Dimensity 1300 chip and a good set of cameras, but the OnePlus 10R brings an even better chipset with a similar camera setup.

So let’s take a look at their specifications in detail in this vivo V25 Pro vs OnePlus 10R comparison.

vivo V25 Pro vs OnePlus 10R

Design

Smartphone design will always be a subjective affair. But the two phones in this comparison use different philosophies for their design profile. The vivo model comes with a curvier design that featured curved edges and sides. The phone features a glass back as well. Note that this is Fluorite AG glass that can change colors when exposed to light. 

On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R comes with a flatter profile, making it similar to the iPhone design. Also, the OnePlus model comes with a plastic back. Overall, the 10R’s design is way different from OnePlus’ traditional design philosophy.

The vivo V25 Pro features a slighter more compact body with the dimensions 158.9 x 73.5 x 8.6 mm vs the 163.3 x 75.5 x 8.2 mm dimensions of the OnePlus 10R. However, the 10R model is slightly thinner and lighter (186g vs 190g) than the former device. 

Overall, your choice would depend upon your preference for a curved or flatter design profile. Go with the OnePlus 10R if you like flat-backed phones or else go with vivo if you prefer a more curved design.

Display

The two phones have similar display panels. However, as you might have figured out from its dimensions, the vivo V25 Pro comes with a slightly smaller display. The phone features a 6.56-inch 1080 x 2376 pixel AMOLED display panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+. On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R comes with a 6.7-inch 1080 x 2412 pixel resolution Fluid AMOLED display, also with 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ certification.

Both displays are pretty good for their price. Therefore, unless you prefer a slightly smaller or a larger panel, the display shouldn’t be a major influencing department.

Specs & Software

If you have been following vivo over the years, you would know that the V series flagship never features the best specs in its price segment. The same is true with the Vivo V25 Pro as well. The phone comes with a Dimensity 1300 chipset, which is a mid-range chip with decent performance. In terms of memory, you can go up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R comes with the faster MediaTek Dimensity 8100-Max chip. The processor is pretty good in the mid-range segment and will outperform 1300 in terms of sheer performance and speed. For gaming and resource-intensive tasks, the Dimensity 8100-Max inside the OnePlus 10R would be a better choice.

Similar to the vivo V25 Pro, the OnePlus model comes with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The vivo V25 Pro features Android 12-based FunTouch 12 OS, while the OnePlus 10R runs on Android 12-based OxygenOS 12.1.

Camera

The vivo V25 Pro features a pretty capable camera setup. This consists of a 64MP f/1.9 primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 2MP macro camera. The selfie camera gets a large 32MP sensor.

On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R comes with a 50MP primary camera with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and finally, a 2MP macro camera. As for the selfie shooter, you get a 16MP punch hole lens on the front.

As you might have noticed, the V25 Pro and OnePlus 10R have almost similar secondary camera setups. Only the primary camera is different, but even with this slight difference, the camera quality shouldn’t significantly differ. We’ve seen the OnePlus model capture decent pictures, but they are nothing extraordinary. We can expect similar performance from the vivo model as well, however, only a real-life camera comparison between the two models will reveal if there’s any difference.

Battery

Both have similar battery capacities. The vivo V25 Pro comes with a slightly larger 4830mAh battery on board with fast 66 charging support. On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R (top-end model) features a 4500mAh battery with the same ultra-fast 150W charging technology. 

Price

The vivo V25 Pro retails at ₹39,999. On the other hand, the OnePlus 10R is available for a slightly cheaper price tag in India at ₹39,999.

The final purchase decision when it comes to the above two devices will boil down to two main areas – performance and budget. 

If you want a mid-range device with a unique design, fast charging, and a good set of cameras, go with the vivo model. On the other hand, if you are looking for a phone that’s cheaper, performs better, and charges extremely fast, it makes sense to get the 150W version of the OnePlus 10R.

The Vivo V25 Pro launched a few days ago is a very interesting upper-midrange phone, not only because it has a color-changing design, but also because of its great hardware and very nice camera department. But is it really the best upper-midrange phone out there or you can find better devices at the moment? In order to answer this question, during these days we decided to publish a few comparisons with the most interesting rivals of this device. Today, it is the turn of a comparison between the main specifications of the Vivo V25 Pro and the OnePlus Nord 2T. They are powered by the same chipset and come with similar specs sheets, but in this comparison, you will find out which one offers the highest value, at least depending on the price.

OnePlus Nord 2T vs Vivo V25 Pro

Design

Both these phones have good designs, but I personally prefer the Vivo V25 Pro. It may be just a personal taste, but it looks like this device offers something more. First of all, it has a rear side able to change color if exposed to direct sunlight, thanks to an electrochromic layer. Further, it comes with a higher screen to body ratio, thanks to narrower bezels around the display. The camera module is not among the most beautiful ones, but the above-mentioned elements make me prefer the Vivo. However, you should note that the OnePlus Nord 2T is still a great phone in terms of design and build quality. It looks minimal and it is thinner than its rival. Further, it comes with Gorilla Glass 5 protection by Corning for the display making it scratch resistant. Unfortunately, these phones are made of polycarbonate and they do not come with the most premium materials.

Display

The displays of these two panels are very similar. The Vivo V25 Pro has a panel with a diagonal of 6.56 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2376 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, and a peak brightness of up to 1,300 nits, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. The OnePlus Nord 2T has an AMOLED display just like its Vivo opponent, but with a smaller 6.43-inch diagonal. It comes with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 90 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. As you probably noticed, the Vivo has a higher refresh rate and a wider display diagonal. Both the phones are equipped with stereo speakers, so the audio experience provided is not bad. Note that the OnePlus has thicker bezels around the display, that is the reason why it is not more compact than the V25 even though it has a smaller panel.

Specs & Software

The processor powering these two devices is the same: a Dimensity 1300 mobile platform by MediaTek. It is a processor built with a 6 nm production process and with an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex A78 CPU running at a max frequency of 3 GHz, three Cortex A78 CPUs running at 2.6 GHz, four Cortex A55 cores running at 2 GHz, and a Mali G77 MC9 GPU. On both the phones, the chipset is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 native storage, with no expandable storage. There is a dual SIM slot, as well as Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity and NFC. On the hardware side, it is essentially a draw. These phones run Android 12 out of the box, but with different customized user interfaces on top: OxygenOS and Funtouch OS, respectively. Which one do you prefer?

Camera

The OnePlus Nord 2T looks more convincing when it comes to the rear cameras because it has a better main sensor: a 50 MP Sony IMX766 lens with OIS, while the Vivo V25 Pro has a 64 MP camera with OIS. The secondary sensors are not the same as the Vivo features a 12 MP ultrawide camera while the Nord has an 8 MP sensor. The Vivo has a superior front camera: its 32 MP snapper is able to record 4K videos, while the 32 MP sensor of the Nord only records 1080p videos at 30 fps.

Battery

Now, the batteries. The one found on the Vivo V25 Pro is bigger and, given that the processor is the same, this handset will provide longer battery life in most of the possible scenarios. On the other hand, the OnePlus Nord 2T is able to charge faster thanks to the 80W fast charging technology by OPPO. Do you prefer a faster charging phone or a device with a bigger battery?

Price

You need Rs. 35,999 / $450 in order to purchase the Vivo V25 Pro in the Indian market, while the OnePlus Nord 2T is priced at Rs. 28,999 / $363 in its base variant with the same amount of RAM and storage (8/128 GB). Which one would you pick?

Vivo renewed its upper-midrange lineup with a new generation of the V series. It includes two devices: the Vivo V25 and the Vivo V25 Pro. By looking at their names and after learning that they are from the same lineup, you probably understood which one is the most advanced phone of the duo. But you probably still do not know which one has the highest value for money, at least according to your actual needs. This is the goal of this article: establishing which one is the best in terms of value for money. So, if this is your goal too, go ahead and read this comparison between the main specifications of the Vivo V25 and the Vivo V25 Pro. Naturally, given that these two devices are variants of the same series, this comparison will be focused on the differences between them.

Vivo V25 vs Vivo V25 Pro

Design

The winner of the design comparison is the Vivo V25 Pro. Even though the vanilla version has a camera module with the same color as the rest of the rear side and the Pro variant does not, the latter has a color-changing electrochromic back making it way more attractive. Further, it comes with narrower bezels around the display and with a punch hole design instead of the ugly waterdrop notch found on the vanilla version. It is even resistant to drops, scratches, and sweat, according to the company. And it has a glass back instead of a cheap polycarbonate one. On the other hand, the original Vivo V25 has a thinner body (and it is even lighter), and a smaller display, so you should not underestimate it. If it was not for the waterdrop notch and the thicker chin, I would choose the vanilla version, but the Pro variant looks more attractive to me.

Display

The Vivo V25 and the Vivo V25 Pro come with AMOLED displays showing bright colors and deep blacks, very nice panels, even though they are not the best on the market. Besides providing narrower bezels and a thinner chin, the Pro variant has a wider diagonal of 6.56 inches against just 6.44 inches, so it is more suitable for gaming and productivity. It even comes with a higher refresh rate: 120 Hz against just 90 Hz, another cool feature for gaming. Both the handsets feature the HDR10+ certification, a Full HD Plus resolution of 1080p and an in-display fingerprint reader. Unfortunately, the vanilla version does not have stereo speakers, while the Pro has dual speakers improving the audio experience.

Specs & Software

The Vivo V25 Pro is equipped with a more powerful chipset. We are referring to the Dimensity 1300 mobile platform by MediaTek, built with a 6 nm production process and providing an octa-core architecture. The chipset is composed of one Cortex A78 CPU running at a max frequency of 3 GHz, three Cortex A78 CPUs with a clock frequency of 2.6 GHz, four low power Cortex A55 CPUs with a 2 GHz frequency, and a pretty good Mali G77 MC9 CPU. If we exclude the Dimensity 8000 and 9000 series by MediaTek, this is definitely the most advanced SoC by the Taiwanese chipmaker.

On this handset, it is joined by up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. The vanilla version has an inferior and midrange-class Dimensity 900 chipset paired with the same memory configuration if we look at the most expensive version. The Dimensity 900 SoC is a chipset built with a 6 nm production process and with an octa-core architecture composed of two Cortex A78 CPUs running at 2.4 GHz, six Cortex A55 CPUs running at 2 GHz, and a Mali G68 MC4 GPU. These phones run Android 12 customized by Funtouch OS 12 in the global market.

Camera

The rear cameras are better on the Pro variant: it has a triple rear camera composed of a 64 MP main sensor with OIS, a 12 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP macro camera. The vanilla version has the same 64 MP main sensor with OIS, but the ultrawide camera is an inferior 8 MP sensor. On the other hand, the Vivo V25 is a better selfie phone thanks to a 50 MP front shooter.

Battery

With the Vivo V250 Pro, you can actually get a bigger battery providing a longer battery life. The capacity is 4830 mAh and the phone supports 66W fast charging. The original V25 not only has a smaller battery with a capacity of 4500 mAh, but it also comes with slower 44W charging.

Price

The starting price of the Pro variant roughly translates into €440/$444 at the actual change, while the price and the availability info for the vanilla version are still unknown. Which one would you pick?

Vivo renewed its amazing V series with two new devices: the Vivo V25 and the Vivo V25 Pro. The latter is an amazing upper-midrange phone equipped with great cameras, a very nice display, a high-end chipset, and even fast charging speeds. It is definitely one of the best value for money phones, but it is also a great rival for the OPPO Reno8 5G. These two phones feature the same processor and their specifications are in the same range; even the prices are not so different. That is the reason why we think it is worth comparing them. So, here is a comparison between the main specifications of the OPPO Reno8 5G and the Vivo V25 Pro.

OPPO Reno8 5G vs Vivo V25 Pro

Design

If you look at the rear sides of these phones, then the OPPO Reno8 5G is much more attractive. It has a very original rear design, with a protruding camera module coming out gradually from the cover and a very impressive gradient color option. Even if you look at the profile, you will find a better view: the OPPO Reno8 5G is a thinner and lighter phone compared to the Vivo V25 Pro. But the Vivo mid-ranger is superior when it comes to the design of the front side: it has a higher screen to body ratio, with narrower bezels around the display. The Reno has a pretty thick chin on the lower part which makes the front glass uglier, but it is the only one protected by Gorilla Glass 5.

Display

On the paper, the Vivo V25 Pro looks to have a superior display. It is an AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.56 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2376 pixels, the HDR10+ certification, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and an in-display fingerprint reader. The OPPO Reno8 5G has a display with a diagonal of 6.4 inches, a Full HD+ resolution, a 90 Hz refresh rate, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. Both the handsets show vivid colors and deep blacks, but the Vivo features a higher refresh rate and a better image quality thanks to the HDR certification, as well as a thinner chin below the panel and a wider diagonal. Unfortunately, the Reno has just a mono speaker, while the V25 Pro has dual speakers, so it produces better audio.

Specs & Software

The processors of these two phones are exactly the same: they feature a Dimensity 1300 mobile platform by Mediatek built with a 6 nm production process with an octa-core architecture. The SoC is composed of a Cortex A78 CPU running at a max frequency of 3 GHz, three Cortex A78 CPUs running at a frequency of 2.6 GHz, and four Cortex A55 CPUs running at 2 GHz, as well as a Mali G77 MC9 GPU. This is a very good SoC for both basic users and gamers, it is not the best chipset by MediaTek but it is one of the most powerful ones. These two devices also feature the same memory configurations, with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 native storage. They run Android 12 out of the box customized by ColorOS 12.1 and Funtouch OS 12, respectively.

Battery

The Vivo V25 Pro is the king of battery life here because it sports a bigger 4830 mAh battery. On the other hand, the smaller battery of the OPPO Reno8 5G supports 80W fast charging, which is a faster charging technology. But it has a capacity of just 4500 mAh and, given that these two phones have the same processor, the battery life will be shorter in most of the scenarios.

Price

You need at least $400/€393 in order to purchase the OPPO Reno8 5G in India, while the starting price of the Vivo V25 Pro roughly translates into $432/€440. Unfortunately, the V25 Pro has limited availability, while the Reno8 5G is going to be available almost everywhere in the global market as it will launch in Europe soon.
The Vivo V25 Pro wins the comparison due to its better display, superior camera, and bigger battery. But the Reno8 features a more interesting design, faster charging, and a better operating system.

The post Vivo V25 series India launch confirmed, microsite reveals key specifications of the V25 Pro appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Vivo V25 Pro is likely to be released in India on August 17. Ahead of the launch, a GeekBench result sheet for the device has appeared online. Although we couldn’t independently verify the listing on GeekBench’s database, the sheet which looks genuine shows the device will pack a Dimensity 1300 process. The details align with those we saw from the Google Play Console listing for the Vivo V25 Pro (V2158).

The listing also shows that the V25 Pro will be available in more than one memory configuration. The model that was benchmarked has 12GB of RAM but the earlier listing was of an 8GB RAM model. Additionally, the smartphone will undoubtedly contain the virtual RAM function that has recently gained in popularity. To better understand how virtual RAM has grown, the vivo Y35 will have the same 8GB virtual RAM capacity as the actual RAM). As expected, the phone’s interface will be provided by Android 12.

The Google Play Console listing equally shows that the vivo V25 Pro will have an FHD+ display resolution of 1,080 x 2,376 pixels. The phone is also confirmed to pack an AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. Unverified rumors also state that the phone will support 66W rapid charging. The V23 series’ color-changing trick will be repeated on the back.

According to rumors, the vivo V25 Pro will have a triple camera system with a 64MP primary module. A 32MP selfie camera with OIS and EIS, identical to the V21 phones from the previous year, should feature on the front.

The V25 Pro is likely to be priced at less than Rs. 40,000 (~$505). The vanilla vivo V25 (V2202) will employ the slower Dimensity 900 chipset and will be released at the same time.
