Pros
Camera
The Vivo V29 is one of those interesting smartphones that makes a big play on a single feature – selfie quality.
[trustedreviews]
Impressive camera performance The Vivo V29 boasts one of the most capable camera setups on the mid-range market in 2023.

Great selfie camera In addition to capable rear lenses, the V29’s selfie sensor boasts a slew of options while also being higher resolution than much of the competition.

Display
IP68 rating, slimline design. Excellent OLED screen, 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+. Solid battery life, fast charging. Great photo and video quality from main camera. The Aura light improves low-light photos noticeably.

Battery
That it then is hugely successful as a general camera phone, with mostly good looks, dependable battery life and a bright, detailed screen is a testament to its overall quality.
[trustedreviews]
Fast charging support With fast charging and a charger in the box, you’ll go from 0-100% in under 40 minutes.

Cons
Design
Much more welcome still is the IP68-rated ingress protection - a development that's as surprising.
[gsmarena]
Display
Also somewhat unexpected is the higher-res display - the extra pixels are hard to appreciate.

Software
Single bottom-firing speaker No stated long-term software support Competition is more powerful.

Other
But an induction coil on the phone's back would have made it thicker.
[gsmarena]
Vivo was going for a thin profile.
[gsmarena]
But it's a thoroughly great panel in all the important ways.
