The vivo V40 5G is prominent for its camera capabilities, and the company promises to offer a similar experience on the new vivo V40 Lite. More than that, this one is equipped with other appealing features that makes for a reliable daily driver, even for the years to come, despite its cheaper price tag.
Today, we’ll detail all the reasons why you would like the new vivo V40 Lite, especially if you’re looking for a good investment and a smartphone that doesn’t need to be replaced on a yearly basis.
50MP AI Aura Portrait Master camera
Like its more expensive brothers, the vivo V40 Lite is equipped with a sharp 50-megapixel main camera with the brand’s signature AI Aura Light technology that offers three levels of automatic brightness adjustment. The special flash also has an automatic color tone adjustment to match the subject’s skin tones.
Aside from portraits, the main camera also takes great photos of landscapes, architecture, food, and more — great for travelers out there.
Have a distracting object or people ruining your travel photo? Don’t worry, as the AI Erase feature is here to clean your photos in just a few clicks.
Simply circle the object or people you want to remove and see the magic of AI remove and fill it for you.
Have you unearthed an old family photo and want to relive the memories on social media? You don’t need a photo scanner to get a high-res digital version of an old picture.
All you need is the new AI Photo Enhance on the vivo V40 Lite. Just snap a photo of the old picture, go to the Gallery > Repair > and select the feature. AI will automatically detect faces in the portraits and enhance contours for a more refined, natural look.
What’s more, it has a sharp 32-megapixel selfie camera, as well as an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens for the 5G model or 2-megapixel depth sensor for the 4G variant.
All these cameras add flexibility when shooting photos — whether it’s architecture, selfies, TikTok videos, or video calls for online classes and meetings.
50-month long-lasting battery
One of the reasons why users are forced to upgrade their phones is due to batteries degrading fast. Thankfully, that wouldn’t be a problem with the vivo V40 Lite. vivo claims that its battery can retain its 80% battery health for four years. To give you better assurance, vivo is implementing an impressive four-year battery warranty, which is exclusive to those who will pre-order from October 19 to 31, 2024.
This feat is made possible by a couple of proprietary technologies. There’s the Smart Charging Engine 2.0 that consists of Overnight Charging Protection, which is the primary tool that helps slow down battery aging. There’s also the 24-Dimension Security Protection that ensures fast and safe charging.
The battery itself has a 5,000mAh capacity, which lasts for up to 16.6 hours of YouTube playback and 29.6 hours of voice calls.
One of its key highlights is the speedy 80W FlashCharge adapter, which provides an 80% charge in as fast as 30 minutes, with a full charge taking just 43 minutes. So if you have an active, always-on-the-go lifestyle, the vivo V40 Lite 5G might be the one for you.
IP68 water-resistant durable build
vivo forged the new vivo V40 Lite to keep up with people’s busy and demanding lifestyle. So, they designed the device to have an IP64 dust and water-resistant rating — offering better protection than most competing phones that only have an IP54 rating. This means that you can always move and use your phone, even if it’s raining.
Having IP64 protection makes the vivo V40 Lite a great companion for people in different fields. For example, delivery riders will still be able to use the screen even if it’s rainy outside and laborers don’t have to worry about dust ruining their phones
Extra bright, colorful AMOLED display
After a hard day’s work, users can sit back, relax, and enjoy their favorite shows with the feature-packed display of the vivo V40 Lite. It sports a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an extra bright 1800 nits of peak brightness.
To complete the experience, vivo also nailed the audio department by including a dual stereo speaker system with Hi-Res Audio support. It has a 300% volume booster feature which, unlike other phones with the same feature, offers more granular control as you can adjust the volume to 100%, 200%, and 300%.
Sleek and elegant design
A feature-packed smartphone is nothing if it looks and feels bad, especially if it will spend a lot of time on your hands and pockets. Fortunately, the vivo V40 Lite has a flagship-like appearance that’s available in Titanium Silver, Dynamic Black, and Dreamy Violet.
It also boasts a metallic high-gloss frame, identical to most high-end phones in the market today. Plus, a unique diamond-shaped camera lens, and an incredibly thin design at only 7.79mm and weight of only 188g, making it incredibly smooth and comfortable to the hands.
These are the top features that make the vivo V40 Lite a great daily-driver smartphone. vivo has intelligently covered the photography, battery, charging, display, and design and build quality to create a smartphone that you would be happy to carry around anytime, anywhere, for many years to come.
