What reviewers say

Good

  • Premium look and build
  • IP69 and tougher glass
  • Great battery life, faster charging
  • Very good stereo speakers
  • Steady performance with almost no throttling
  • Strong cameras all round
  • Good-looking design, comfortable

Not so good

  • Launch price not competitive
  • Smaller, lower-res screen than V40
  • Virtual proximity sensor
  • No eSIM
  • Same Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 as V30/V40
  • Matte back smudges
  • Bloatware
  • GSMArenaRecommendedApr 2025

    Well-rounded camera-first midranger that refines the V40; easy to recommend, though the launch price is not sharp and support is short.

  • Polished V40 follow-up for photo lovers around Rs 35,000; not worth it for V30/V40 owners or gamers.

  • Smartprix80/100Feb 2025

    Solid camera- and design-led midranger with long battery life; performance is its weak spot.

  • FoneArenaFeb 2025

    Better battery and good cameras, but the same chip means it trails rivals in speed and the screen drops to FHD+.

  • Deccan HeraldRecommended

    Modest upgrade that still beats rivals at its price on looks, camera and battery.
