Pros

Camera

The V29 Pro heavily focuses on photography.

The Sony IMX663 sensor has "all-pixel dual-core" autofocus, which helps it in the dark.

Brilliant cameras.

Design

Vivo was dead set on maintaining a slim waistline for the V29 Pro, with a nicely thin 7.5mm thickness.

Display

The display remains unchanged in size at 6.78 inches in diagonal. It is an unusually high-res panel - the 1260x2800px resolution makes for a 453ppi density.

Good display.

Battery

Charging is now rated at 80W instead of the V27 Pro's 66W spec.

Other

The new Aura light implementation includes a separate dedicated set of LEDs that can automatically adjust their temperature depending on ambient light.

Cons

Camera

The 2MP dedicated macro cam from the V27 Pro might be gone. [source: gsmarena]

Performance

Vivo decided not to upgrade the chipset. [source: gsmarena]

The V29 Pro uses the same MediaTek Dimensity 8200 chip as the V27 Pro. [source: gsmarena]

Battery

Battery backup is not good. [source: digit]

Software

Bad software experience. [source: digit]

Audio

No stereo speakers. [source: digit]
