The viewing angles of the phone are better and we found that there was something like a red mark on the display. Unfortunately, there is no option to change the display output in this handset. Because of which you have to work as you look.
There is no mention of strong glass anywhere but Vivo pre-applied screen is also provided. The phone has 4G VoLTE in terms of connectivity but with this service one SIM is supported at a time. The second SIM turns into 3G service during the use of the first sim.

Vivo V9 performance, camera and battery
Vivo V9 went throughout the day without interruption. UI is easy. With 4 GB RAM it appeared capable of doing small and big work. The face unlock feature of Vivo V9 works better. However, in low light, the phone makes it difficult to identify the user’s face, for which the pin may have to be inserted. The fingerprint sensor is also fast.
The phone has a 3260 mAh battery. With apps like YouTube, WhatsApp, it is able to run the phone comfortably throughout the day. In our HD video loop test, Vivo V9 lasted 8 hours 49 minutes. Vivo V9 has a dual camera. One 16 megapixel primary sensor and the other 5 megapixel depth sensor. Vivo has not made special changes in the camera. It is so important that AR Steer has a pair of feature compared to the previous version. Vivo V9 comes with beauty mode equipped with AI. It has been claimed that the handset may identify the user’s age, gender, texture, skin tone etc.
Photos taken from Vivo V9 proved to be mixed as quality. We found that the phone could do well in better lights but in a difficult situation it could not give better results. Vivo V9 focuses better in daylight and takes the exposure correct. However, the output was slightly granulated and the landscape shot was not clear. Macrose shots came better, which made the phone different from the subject and background. Camera quality falls in low light. There is a delay in taking the focus and blur photos come.
The Vivo V9 has a 24-megapixel selfie camera, which is equipped with AI-beautification mode. It also enhances the shot. Selfies are clear and they are also worth posting on social media.
Decision
With Vivo V9, Vivo has managed to give the first Android smartphone equipped with Nokia in the country. Hardware is better and there are many changes in software. The display is better than the rest and for those who have to show off the phone with Nokia, this is a good option for them. Also, people who do not want to spend a large amount on the iPhone X, they can buy it.
The face recognition feature works better. The USB Type-C port is absent in Vivo V9 for Rs 22,900, which has become common in the rest of the phone nowadays. The battery is weak and if you use the phone all the time, you will be looking for the charger by evening. The performance of the camera is better but it is responded in low light.
The current match of Vivo V9 is against Oppo F7. However, further smartphones will be launched in this category. In V9, the user will get a large display, thin border and small notch, which is enough to draw attention. However, if you are not showing interest in buying it, then the market is present in the market 6 GB RAM variants.
