Vivo T2 5G Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Vivo T2 5G - cheaper and more practical than flagships?

There has been some stagnation in the segment of top mobile processors for more than a year. The most productive solutions are subject to throttling, overheating, and do not surprise with energy efficiency. Perhaps that is why even demanding gamers are increasingly paying attention to flagship chips from two years ago. It is this CPU that characterizes the hero of today's review, which is also distinguished by a number of other competitive advantages at a reasonable price.

The appearance of the novelty came out more than successful, because it largely copies that of the expensive models of the manufacturer. Easily recognizable block of three cameras, branded colors of glass cases evoke positive emotions. Only the plastic edging of the gadget, and the noticeable bezels of the 6.62-inch AMOLED display indicate that the Android smartphone belongs to the medium-high cost category. The AMOLED screen is endowed with a 120-Hz refresh rate, has an accurate fingerprint sensor under the glass, and a high-quality oleophobic coating. But there are some complaints about the brightness margin, the direct rays of the sun still take away most of the visibility of the image.

The chipset of the device was an elderly, but up-to-date and balanced Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, 8GB / 12GB of RAM and the Adreno 650 video core. Minor gameplay tweaks can only be noticed with maximum graphics presets and the most resource-intensive games like Fortnite, while any other applications will please both launch speed and response for any user action. In addition, there are no problems with autonomy. The 4700 mAh battery usually lasts for a day and a half, the power of fast wired charging was 80W, so it will take a few minutes to be at the outlet. But there is no wireless charging, and the lack of moisture protection can also disappoint. But complaints about the size of the internal storage will not arise, because it has been brought up to 128 / 256GB of UFS 3.1 format ROM.

64-, 8- and 2-megapixel cameras turned out to be quite good thanks to optical stabilization. As a result, the number of photos with blurs decreases significantly, and the number of evening shots with noise is small. OIS also has a positive effect on the smoothness of the video sequence. The volume of the stereo speakers is sufficient not to miss an important call, there is also bass from about 100Hz. The presence of NFC contactless payments, support for 5G networks and a minimum of shortcomings make the device, if not a potential hit, then a reliable and technological assistant and friend.
