In this Vivo V29 Pro review, we take a look at its performance, camera, and battery capabilities in the real world
Good display
Sleek design
Aura light for images
Fast charging
No stereo speakers
Average selfie camera
Loads of pre-installed apps
The Vivo V29 Pro is official barely six months after the Vivo V27 Pro (review) launch in India. The new Vivo smartphone looks and feels familiar to its predecessor, but mind you, there are some modifications in the camera department and charging speeds. The camera improvements can also strategically attract new customers, given that the wedding and festive season is around the corner.
Apart from these upgrades, the display, design, and other aspects remain more or less the same. Does it make it worth considering, given that the price (Rs 39,999 for the 8GB and 256GB storage and Rs 42,999 for the 12GB RAM variant) remains more or less similar to its predecessor? Let’s find out.

As I mentioned, the Vivo V27 Pro 5G looks similar to its predecessor. The phone retains 7.4mm thickness, which is not bad at all, provided that flagship devices by many OEMs continue to get marginally thicker. The weight is again capped at roughly 188 grams.
If you’re not a fan of using the case, the finish on the back will not disappoint. Vivo has introduced an India-specific Himalayan Blue colour option for the Vivo V29 Pro, which uses “3D magnetic and nano-scale magnetic particles” technology to create a floating mountain texture on the back.
