2-minute Review [Positives]	Premium, stylish, sleek design The fingerprint sensor at the back is quick and can also be used to click images Beautiful, large, immersive Full View Display (Infinity Display), that is great for watching videos Vivo's FunTouch UI is decent, and largely inspired from iOS Seamless performance in day-to-day use, and multitasking and gaming are managed well too Excellent selfie camera with a portrait bokeh effect available for your selfies - one of the best selfie cameras on any phone Rear camera is decent too (though not great) and takes decent images in daylight, producing pleasing colors Decent 1080p videos - come out with good contrast and colors Decent loudspeaker Good audio quality via headphones too Good battery life - comfortably lasts the day with moderate use The phone also remains cool, even when pushed Comes with dedicated two SIM card slots and a micro SD-Card slot as well (unlike the hybrid approach taken by some of the competition)	High-end, premium metal design, and excellent build quality - befitting a much more expensive phone Fast fingerprint reader Impressive, bright display, with great color accuracy MIUI on top of Android works great, runs fast, and has excellent theming and customization options, making it easy to find the look you want Powerful Spandragon 625 chipset ensures smooth, effortless performance all throughout Pretty decent camera - although it tends to produce photos a little bit on the soft side - but overall it's good, and a significant improvement over the Redmi Note 3 Good loudspeaker Top-notch battery life - again, improved even over the already very good Redmi Note 3 - even with heavy usage, you can get close to two full days out of it
2-minute Review [Negatives]	Plastic body Display resolution could have been better Although daily performance is good, the phone is not meant for power users - there are better performing phones available in this price bracket Rear camera performance in low light is average No fast charging support	Audio quality via headphones is average Doesn't use the new USB-C standard
