Comparisons Featuring vivo U20
Short Review
- The vivo U20 features a sleek design with dimensions of 162.2 x 76.5 x 8.9 mm and a weight of 193g, utilizing a glass front and plastic back.
- Its 6.53-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels, delivering a pixel density of approximately 395 ppi, although it lacks HDR support.
- Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 chipset, the phone provides solid performance with an octa-core CPU and options for 4GB, 6GB, or 8GB of RAM.
- The camera setup includes a 16 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP macro lens, capable of recording 4K video at 30fps, while the 16 MP front camera captures decent selfies.
- The 5000mAh battery ensures long-lasting usage, supporting 18W fast charging but no wireless charging.
- Running on Android 9.0 with Funtouch 9.2, the software experience is user-friendly, although it may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in Racing Black and Blaze Blue colors, adding a touch of style.
- The absence of stereo speakers is notable, yet it retains a headphone jack for wired audio.
- Overall, the vivo U20 is a well-rounded device with commendable specifications for its release year.
