2-minute Review [Positives]	Jazzy, eye-catching back panel design with gradient finish and the unique diamond-shaped camera module The slim profile of the camera module barely protrudes from the back The in-display fingerprint sensor works well Face unlock is present too, which is reliable (though, not as quick as on the other phones at this price level) Vivid, crisp 6.38-inch full-HD+ Super AMOLED display - the colours are also very punchy thanks to the AMOLED panel, and text and icons are adequately sharp The display gets very bright, making it easily legible even under direct sunlight Widevine L1 DRM certified - you can watch Netflix and Prime in crisp HD resolution Funtouch OS based on Android 9 Pie looks very similar to iOS, and is pretty feature packed Decent performance powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 - it handles multitasking well and regular usage is smooth Decent set of quad rear cameras - 48MP primary + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro + 2MP depth camera Close-ups are good, with good bokeh and details in objects In bokeh mode, the Vivo S1 Pro's depth camera does a decent job of detecting edges, and blurs out the right areas - colours and details are also good The macro camera is also handy at times, and lets you get very close to the subjects Very good 32MP selfie camera - it captures detailed photos when shooting under ideal light - results are fairly good even when shooting against the light The Vivo S1 Pro packs in a 4500 mAh battery, which easily lasts for 2 days of moderate use Overall, the Vivo S1 Pro is a decent pick if all you want is a stylish design, good battery life, and a punchy display	Charming, fresh rear design - the Realme 7 features a mirror-split design, which creates some interesting patterns when light hits it The front is identical to the Realme 6 with a hole-punch and thin bezels all around Even though it uses plastic for the frame and back panel, the Realme 7 feels well-built and sturdy Face unlock and the side-mounted fingerprint sensor are quick The Realme 7 gets the same large 6.5 inches IPS LCD as the 6 - it can get very bright, and colours are nicely saturated The display supports up to 90Hz refresh rate which makes for a smooth experience - games that support 90Hz displays, like Alto's Odyssey, are particularly enjoyable to play Software on the Realme phones is much improved since the company switched to Realme UI, it is easy to use - it is also packed with features such as Digital Wellbeing, Focus Mode, Dark Mode, and Riding Mode among others - there are some exciting and useful features like Realme Dual-Mode Audio, which allows you to connect a Bluetooth and a wired headset at the same time to listen to music on the smartphone Rapid performance from the new MediaTek Helio G95 chipset - the SOC performs similar to the Helio G90T with an updated GPU, so apart from smooth regular usage, you would be getting a boost in your gaming sessions Good quad cameras at the back - the main unit boasts a 64MP sensor, with an 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 2MP micro and a 2MP depth sensor - Realme has upgraded the main sensor with a Sony sensor instead of a Samsung sensor on the Realme 6, everything else remains the same The daylight photos from the main sensor preserve the natural colour and have good exposure - it exhibits improved dynamic range, with better details compared to the Realme 6 - the new sensor is slightly better than the old one in the Realme 6 The ultra-wide camera captures a wider perspective but details and colours are weaker compared to the main sensor as expected Portrait shots generally look good, and you get the option to adjust the background blur before shooting Low light photos look cleaner too, with less grain - shots captured using Night mode look more pleasing, compared to what the Realme 6 can produce The 16MP camera can take decent selfies - The selfie portrait mode is useful as it manages to correctly crop out the background, and there's also Night mode for bright selfies even in the dark Video rec. is decent, you have the option to rec. up to 4K without stabilisation - there's also Ultra Steady mode which offers great stabilisation but videos look a bit soft - ultra-wide camera videos are stabilised but less detailed, the resolution is limited to 1080p Overall, the cameras on the Realme 7 are a bit improved than the previous gen, which always a good thing Excellent battery life from the 5000 mAh battery, which is a big upgrade the Realme 6 - even with medium to heavy usage, it will get you a day and half of runtime on one charge 30W Dart Charge fast charging is very good and takes just about an hour to fill up the phone - it also supports 15W USB-C Power Delivery fast charging, which is handy The Realme 7 isn't a major update over the Realme 6, but it's a good enough refresh with its larger battery and better primary camera sensor - overall performance is very good, battery life is excellent, and the 90Hz display makes general usage feel smooth and fluid - the Realme 7 also looks great, it offers good value for your money
2-minute Review [Negatives]	The Vivo S1 Pro feels a little chunky at 8.68mm thick The back isn't glass, as Vivo still uses laminated plastic Having said that, the interface is unnecessarily complicated - swipe-up gesture to access system shortcuts is confusing, since it's in the notification shade in stock or other Android UIs There's a lot of bloatware preinstalled on the Vivo S1 Pro (though the third-party apps can be removed) Heavy games such as PUBG Mobile however struggle to run at a smooth frame rate even at the Low graphics preset This isn't a bad processor, but it's typically now found in phones closer to the Rs. 10, 000 mark, such as the Realme 5i In daylight, the primary camera manage to capture average-looking landscape shots - images lack depth, objects at the sides of the frame also have a bit of grain - HDR kicks in when needed, but the end result isn't always very good - some images have a very cool, bluish hue to them, which look unnatural The wide-angle camera offered a nice perspective, but colours weren't very accurate Low-light photos are just strictly average - focusing is a lot slower in the dark, and it takes a second or two longer to save each photo - there's no dedicated night shooting mode either No option for a background bokeh effect with the front camera Videos can only be recorded at up to 1080p, which is not great, especially at this price - there's no stabilisation either, which is a big letdown Low-light video is not very good, from both primary & ultra-wide lens - has lots of grain as well as weak details Overall, rear cameras are nothing special - you will get better outcomes with the Realme X2 or the Redmi K20 The single speaker doesn't get too loud and the sound is a little tinny Vivo uses its Dual Engine Fast Charge feature, but the 18W charger isn't the fastest - charging the phone completely takes about two and a half hours If you'd prefer a more well-rounded phone though, we suggest looking at offerings from Realme and Xiaomi instead, such as the Realme X2 and the Redmi K20, which have much more powerful SoCs	The Realme 7 is actually thicker (9.4mm) and heavier (196.5g) than the 6, and this is very noticeable in daily usage - one-handed texting or photography can get fatiguing really quickly due to the additional weight There are still several pre-loaded apps however (though most of these can thankfully be uninstalled) The 2MP macro camera is not great, and even photos taken in broad daylight look quite poor
