- Attractive looking smartphone - one of the better designed in its price segment - the glass body adds to the overall premium aesthetics of the Vivo V17 Pro
- The good bit is despite sporting so many cameras the design of the quad-camera module on the back has clean lines and doesn't look cluttered
- The front is a sharp, modern all-screen affair - the dual front cameras are embedded in a broad pop-up module
- The in-display fingerprint sensor is fast and unlocks the smartphone quickly
- Beautiful 6.44-inch, notch-free, Super AMOLED display with a screen-to-body of 91.65 per cent - in other words, lots of screen, lots of pixels, and a great screen for watching videos
- The full-screen display also get pretty bright in all lighting conditions, and exhibits very good viewing angles
- The Vivo V17 Pro also comes with an always-on display option, which is useful
- Solid, smooth performance with the Snapdragon 675 at the core - every-day use to gaming - it's all lag-free
- Excellent 6 camera setup - 4 on the rear (48MP primary Sony IMX582 sensor, 13MP telephoto lens, 8MP wide angle lens and 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots) + 2 on the front (32MP primary shooter and second camera is an 8MP super wide-angle lens)
- The Vivo V17 Pro captures some great shots, especially in good light - details are great, and colors are original-like - the dynamic range is also pretty good
- The ultra wide-angle lens offer a new perspective and lets users click wider area at close range to the subject
- The camera app also includes a super macro mode that again captures good amount of details and spot-on colours
- Low light performance is respectable too - especially if you use the handy Night mode
- The Vivo V17 Pro also clicks pretty good selfies with accurate facial details
- Low light performance in selfies is helped too by the Night mode
- The second 8MP front camera can be used to click decent group selfies
- Overall, the Vivo V17 Pro is one of the better phones you can buy right now under Rs 30, 000 if you want good camera performance
- Very good battery life with a large 4100mAh battery - you will get about 1.5 days of moderate use
- With the 18W fast charging support, it takes around 1.5 hours (approx) to charge the V17 Pro fully with its bundled charger
- If camera and design are your primary priorities, the Vivo V17 Pro is an good choice to consider in the under 30k segment - it does very well on both those parameters
|
- Premium, stylish glass-sandwich design - two glass sheets joined by an anodized aluminum frame
- The back has a nice gradient effect - there's a subtle "X" pattern if you shine a light at it
- Cold glass, colder metal, all curved and melded into one another, the Realme X2 Pro feels great in hand
- Excellent, fast in-display fingerprint scanner and face unlock
- Beautiful, large, bright, vibrant OLED display, with a cool 90Hz refresh rate - the best display panel you will get at this price point
- The 90Hz refresh rate means everything feels super snappy on the phone - from UI animations, webpage scrolling, to games
- The screen also delivers HDR10+ support and a bunch of colour modes too, as well as a dark mode to take advantage of the OLED’s inky blacks
- ColorOS is now more streamlined (and less bloat-y) than before, and still packs a bunch of useful add-on features, like Game space
- Top-end flagship performance with the Snapdragon 855+ beast at the core (the cheapest phone with the flagship 855+ at present) - the X2 Pro steamrolls through anything you throw at it, including high-end games
- Gaming on the phone is especially a treat, also because of the 90Hz screen
- Nice, versatile quad camera setup: 64MP primary + 13MP telephoto + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP depth sensor
- In daylight, the 64MP camera can grab some great shots - detail is great and dynamic range is fair
- Very good portrait mode
- The ultra-wide, and macro modes provide for some interesting framing options (though quality wise, they are not quite up there with the primary camera)
- The telephoto lens is capable of 2X optical zoom, 5X hybrid zoom, and a total of 20X digital zoom - and, up to 5x zoom, the quality is pretty good, especially in good lighting conditions
- Very good video capture with impressive electronic image stabilisation from the main camera - comparable to much more expensive phones
- Good selfie camera too - its 16MP resolution captures detailed shots, and it shoots at up to FullHD video
- Overall, the camera setup on the X2 Pro is very good for the price bracket, but it's not the best (Redmi K20 Pro, and Oneplus 7T do slightly better)
- Excellent Dolby tuned stereo speakers - they are both loud and hard to cover up - listening to music on the phone is a joy
- Very good battery life with a large 4000mAh battery - will give you up to 1.5 days of use with moderate usage
- Includes crazy-fast 50W fast charging - the fastest in the industry till date - even beating top-end flagships like the Mate 30 Pro and Samsung Galaxy Note 10 (by a massive margin) - it goes flat to 100% in just 30 minutes!
- The X2 Pro is a smashing entry by Realme in the flagship space - it's crazy good value for money, completely changes the affordable flagship landscape, and is a power user's dream - as long as you are ok with a not-the-best-at-this-price-range camera, it will be hard to do better than the X2 Pro

| 2-minute Review [Negatives] |
- A bit bulky/chunky
- No face unlock
- Software continues to be a relative weak point for Vivo, with a cluttered Funtouch UI (though it is quite feature-packed)
- This is certainly not the best performing phone of this price bracket though - you get a much more powerful Snapdragon 855 in the cheaper Redmi K20 Pro - in fact, there are the Vivo Z1 Pro and the Vivo Z1X that again cost less and come with a newer Snapdragon 712
- Sub-par low-light video quality
- If you are looking for an all-rounder though, you will have better options around especially in terms of software & performance - you will want to look at the likes of Realme XT, and Redmi K20 Pro
|
- A bit beefy at 199g and 8.7mm thick
- Like all glass backs, this one too is slippery and attracts fingerprints and smudges
- It's still not as clean/simple as stock Android of course - very few custom skins are
- Low light performance and the night mode aren't that great, with the lack of OIS
- If you do want the best-camera-for-the-buck, or a notch-less screen however, consider the Xiaomi's Redmi K20 Pro - and if you are really keen on a clean, stock like Android experience, consider the OnePlus 7T (at a slightly higher price point)
