Pros

Camera

The camera has also been upgraded - there is a trio of cams on the back with a 50MP OIS primary, an 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro shooters.

Performance

The new chipset - the MediaTek Dimensity 8200 - a SoC fabbed on a more efficient 4nm process.

Design

A gorgeous curved glass design and stellar camera make the Vivo V27 Pro worth buying.

Display

The new vivo V27 Pro features a larger display.

Battery

The vivo V27 Pro is powered by a 4,600mAh battery and there is support for 66W fast wired charging.

Solid battery life.

Software

The new smartphone boots the latest vivo software, which is Android 13 with Funtouch 13 right now.

Other

The vivo V27 Pro is a notable upgrade over the previous V23 Pro and V25 Pro.

Cons

Camera

Underwhelming auxiliary cameras. [source: androidcentral]

Software

Availability issues and a lack of a software update commitment hurt the phone in the highly competitive mid-range market. [source: androidcentral]

Lots of bloatware. [source: androidcentral]

Audio

There are a few things we hoped to see but didn't happen - some sort of officially rated splash protection and stereo speakers. [source: gsmarena]

Weak mono speaker. [source: androidcentral]

Other

No water/dust resistance. [source: androidcentral]
