Chinese smartphone maker Vivo has releasing its latest V30 series in the Indian market, offering flagship-level specifications at relatively affordable price points. The V30 lineup includes two models the standard V30 and the higher-end V30 Pro.
Headlining the V30 series is the combination of a large 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate for ultra smooth scrolling and animations. The displays are also HDR10+ certified and boast a peak brightness of 2,800 nits, ensuring excellent viewability even under direct sunlight.
Under the hood, the standard V30 is powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, while the Pro model gets the more powerful MediaTek Dimensity 8200 processor. Both are capable mid-range chips that should handle day-to-day tasks and gaming with ease.
In the amera department, the V30 series brings some serious photography chops. The triple rear camera setup on both phones includes a high-resolution 50MP main sensor, joined by a 50MP ultra-wide lens and another 50MP portrait lens on the Pro for capturing stylized shallow depth of field shots. For selfies, you get an impressive 50MP front-facing shooter.
But the real showstopper is the large 5,000mAh battery combined with blisteringly fast 80W wired charging support. Vivo claims the V30 series are the slimmest phones in India this year to pack such a huge battery and fast charging capability.
On the software side, the V30 lineup runs Android 14 out of the box with Vivo’s latest FuntouchOS 14 custom skin on top.

Vivo seems to have pulled out all the stops in terms of hardware, offering a very compelling package at competitive prices starting at ₹33,999 for the base V30. The higher-end V30 Pro does inch closer to premium flagship territory with a ₹46,999 price tag for the maxed out variant.
