Would you look at that? It's another new smartphone that was just announced
0:04
It looks a lot like a smartphone which gathered a boatload of attention last year
0:09
That was, of course, the Vivo Next. The phone in front of me takes a lot of its inspiration from that Next device
0:15
Of course, it's a Vivo device. This is the V15 Pro. And what you're looking at is a more approachable, more affordable version of the Next
0:24
I can go based on some rumors that are out there that seem to imply that the price point for this device
0:29
is gonna be somewhere around $400 US. So, really compelling, competitive price
0:36
Ultra full view display. It has a triple camera setup on the back
0:41
including a wide angle, a 32 megapixel elevating front camera. So if you remember that from the next video
0:48
it's very entertaining. It's got a 3700 milliamp hour battery as well
0:52
In display, fingerprint. First things first, a little case. Better than what I'm used to seeing
0:57
as far as free cases are concerned. And here's the device, this is topaz blue
1:02
Not only does this device have dual nano SIM slots, it's also got micro SD, so expandable storage
1:07
Ooh, wow! That is a very nice blue. The triple camera setup
1:13
Oh my goodness, there is also a headphone jack. Nice to see it hanging around on certain devices
1:19
Now unfortunately, it's a micro USB connector, but somehow still capable of fast charging
1:24
You actually have a dedicated button for launching Google Assistant. and also include a headset
1:30
It's a wired headset with a microphone. Pretty standard stuff Oh alright so it gets my face Did you get that Jack That was wild that was so fast
1:43
It just scanned me instantly. Okay, now we're gonna do the fingerprint
1:47
So now that it's registered, let's go ahead and attempt to unlock it
1:51
First I'll try the fingerprint here. Hmm. Okay. I feel like that's quicker than my OnePlus 6T
2:00
Hold on a second here. Let me just see something. It's quicker, right
2:08
Okay. And this guy. Ah. Maybe it's just the animation, but it feels like maybe a split second faster
2:16
If you want to use the face unlock, you just... What do you do
2:22
Hmm. It's a swipe up. So it's just this comes up. I can't imagine doing that every time just because then you're really using this motorized unit a lot
2:34
But it is quick. So let's try and not point at my face
2:42
Nothing. Then unlock. Nothing. Boom. Eh. Now of course if you launch the camera app, the front facing camera will trigger the unit as well
2:52
Now if I switch back to the other camera on the back, it goes away. So let's take a selfie
2:56
I'm looking way too beautiful. Where is the beauty mode on this? They're softening me out
3:01
Anyway, I'll crank that down. Maybe we'll put HDR on. Wow! That might be the best selfie I've ever taken
3:09
Look at the detail on here And look at the pores in my skin here You seen this Pores Hair follicles well you want to take a look at this am i crazy or is that a really
3:20
nice looking selfie yeah it is it's very sharp it is a ton of detail really nice
3:25
do you see what's going on here that's wild this is one of my favorite selfies
3:30
I've ever taken in this environment we're talking about 32 megapixels okay
3:35
Okay let's flip over to the rear camera. Now HDR mode popped on
3:41
Now there's also a wide lens. It is a triple camera setup
3:45
Tons more in the frame. I believe this is a 120 degree field of view
3:49
Now as you can see there's a slider in the middle there for simulated aperture as you can tell
3:55
Kind of does a job of that of like blurring out the background
3:59
I'm not such a fan of these modes. I've told you about that in the past
4:04
It's funny, the rear camera I might be less impressed by than the front facing one
4:07
That's a pretty vibrant image. This is an AMOLED display. That's pretty wild at this price point also
4:13
But the front facing one, that's a crazy unit. I never saw such a realistic selfie that actually looks like me
4:19
You know, I was critical of some of the magic that Apple was doing
4:23
Even some of the magic that the Pixel does sometimes that I don't like that much
4:27
Now this unit also has a night mode built into it. So we should probably hit some lights and see what we can come up with
4:33
Ooh, look at that, it's dark in here, but not on the camera
4:36
Oh my goodness, guys, it's dark in here, but not on the night mode
4:40
Willy Do is satisfied right now. Okay, that's Will on the camera with the exposure set
4:46
Here Will on the night mode Look at that you wouldn believe it It important to know that this doesn have the flagship Snapdragon in it This one is the 675 but that could be a good thing
4:58
from a power consumption standpoint. 3,700 mAh battery. I think you can see some pretty decent
5:03
battery numbers on here, and that processor should be enough for most individuals
5:08
especially price point considered. Okay, I definitely want to test the sound on this
5:17
It's a lot of high end, but it's loud. Wow, it's piercing
5:28
It's a bit obnoxious, safer way to listen. No cut out. No knot city
5:34
Is that enough? The speaker is passable. Nowhere near the best I've seen. You have to adjust your expectations to the suggested price point
5:43
Now I should also mention that you do have a skin on this device out of the box as you can tell here
5:48
It's fairly snappy but a couple things you got to get used to like swiping down here you see your notifications up
5:56
It's going to bring up your brightness, volume and various other quick toggles
6:00
Something to note at least out of the box. As I said before it's an AMOLED display
6:05
All screen. This is kind of an amazing package in fact when you consider the price point
6:10
This is the blue color, the glitz, the glamour. You're going to turn some heads with that guy right there
6:15
I'm pretty excited about it. It's the V15 Pro from Vivo. A new, more affordable incarnation of the Nex Origin
6:25
I think it's interesting
