Vivo T1 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Vivo T1 - new perspectives

The Chinese company Vivo does not stand still and tries to adapt both to the actions of competitors and to the requests of fans. The newest T-series is aimed at the mid-price segment, where the largest battles between large manufacturers are taking place today. The hero of today's review will be the first phone in the line and, in combination, a product that can take away a large part of the audience from Xiaomi, Huawei and other opponents of the brand.

The appearance of the novelty is similar to that of some Oppo and Realme models due to the familiar block of three cameras and the same colors. The rear glass panel looks like a flagship beautiful, which cannot be said about the plastic side bezel. In addition, the material is prone to chips and scratches, so you have to hide all the beauty of the exterior under the cover. But the 6.67-inch IPS-display will delight not only with the absence of frames, but also with the displayed picture with FullHD + resolution. Among the abundance of advantages of the screen, we will single out an impressive refresh rate of 120Hz and an excellent margin of brightness, which will allow you to use the phablet comfortably even in the direct rays of the summer sun. For data security, both face recognition by a 16-megapixel selfie camera and a fairly accurate sub-screen fingerprint scanner are used.

The technical characteristics of the Android smartphone are the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset, loved by millions, 8 / 12GB of RAM and the Adreno 642 video adapter. Gamers will get close to top-end performance in demanding games. So, the famous for its system requirements Genshin Impact welcomes smooth gameplay at high graphics settings. The processor also attracts attention with its modest heating and reasonable power consumption by today's standards. A 4500 mAh battery is enough for a day and a half of working with the device, and fast charging at 65W is not forgotten by the developers. Do not complain about the ROM size of 128 / 256GB , although it is not supplemented with a microSD card slot.

But the photographic capabilities of the main cameras are not as impressive as we would like. 64-, 8- and 2-megapixel modules represent a standard set for the value category, with which it is possible to count on excellent picture details only during the day. Deterioration of lighting inevitably leads to both the appearance of noise and smudged small details. 5G support is present, but the frequency range is frankly small. Also, the disadvantages include China-oriented software, replete with untranslated applications. There is also no contactless payment NFC, FDD-LTE B7 for 4G networks in Europe and the CIS. But a small list of shortcomings is fully compensated by the previously mentioned competitive advantages, coupled with rich stereo sound . In addition, the attractive price tag only strengthens the desire to purchase a balanced and technologically advanced device.
