The Vivo XPlay7 is a monster offering from Chinese company Vivo. Amazing specs all for the price of Rs. 40,000 makes it a steal when compared to the unreal prices of the branded flagships.
Design, Screen and Cameras
The Vivo XPlay7 has a metal unibody design like all phones at this price. The front of the phone is where the Super AMOLED bezel-less display sits at 6-inches tall with an FHD+ resolution of 1080x2160 equating to a very crisp 402ppi pixel density. Above the screen is the 16MP camera with 1080p whereas the back has a dual 12MP + 12MP camera with 4k video recording capabilities. The main camera has 4-axis OIS so your video recording is as stable as ever and your images get more than enough light for the perfect exposure.
Flagship Hardware in a midranger
Powering the Vivo XPlay7 is the flagship processor of the year: The Snapdragon 835. The beastly 8 cores of this chipset will make Android 7.1 Nougat run as smooth as butter especially since the screen won’t be taxing it as much as other flagships do. Coupled with 6GB of RAM, lag is an issue you can imagine never existed. 128GB of internal storage is found on board with no option of expanding (like you really need it). Powering the handset is a 35000mAh battery that should see you through 2 days with moderate usage.
