OPPO is a known face in the budget smartphone race. But lately, the brand has been getting a stronghold in the premium mid-tier and flagship mobile segment with its value for money smartphones. After launching multiple ‘A’ and Reno7 series phones, OPPO has now revamped its F smartphone lineup with the F21 Pro series. The OPPO F21 Pro 5G is the brand’s latest player in the mid-range 5G category that brings a unique Fiberglass Leather design and latest Snapdragon 695 5G octa-core processor, and 33W fast charging.
The OPPO F21 Pro 5G is one of the most competent Android smartphones launched in recent times. It has several rivals from popular brands such as Vivo. The Vivo V23 5G is also one of the recent premium mid-tier phones that give tough competition to the OPPO F21 Pro 5G. But which of the two models is a complete package under Rs. 30,000 in India and should be next on your buying list? Read on to know:
OPPO F21 Pro 5G Vs Vivo V23 5G: Which One Features Better Display?
The OPPO F21 Pro 5G flaunts a flat-edge display design where the AMOLED panel measures 6.43-inches and supports 1080 x 2400 pixels FHD+ screen resolution. The OPPO F21 Pro 5G’s compact display has 600 nits peak brightness and a 90Hz refresh rate that helps with good gaming visuals. The Vivo V23 5G also features a similar display as the OPPO F21 Pro 5G. The V23 5G is packed with a 6.44-inch display.
The panel used here is also AMOLED which supports 1080 x 2400 pixels screen resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. The display on both the latest OPPO F series and Vivo V series phones has a tiny punch-hole camera cutout for the selfie camera. The viewing experience is good with both OPPO and the VIVO 5G phones.
OPPO F21 Pro 5G Vs Vivo V23 5G Chipset Comparison: Which One Is More Powerful?
The OPPO F21 Pro 5G is backed by the Snapdragon 695 processor. This octa-core 5G processor is designed for new-generation premium mid-range 5G phones. This Qualcomm chipset supports Adreno 619 GPU for graphics and 8GB RAM for multitasking. The OPPO F series phone comes with an in-built memory of 128GB that eliminates the general storage crunch issues.
On the other hand, the Vivo V23 5G is powered by an octa-core Dimensity 920 5G processor. This is also a new-generation 5G processor by MediaTek for the premium mid-tier 5G Android phones that gets Mali G68 GPU support. Performance delivery by the Vivo model is also decent. It can handle both general tasks as well as gaming.
OPPO F21 Pro Vs Vivo V23 5G: Which Is Best For Camera?
OPPO has used a triple rear camera setup on the F21 Pro 5G. The latest OPPO mid-range 5G phone has a 64MP main camera with an f/1.7 aperture and PDAF (phase detection autofocus). The main camera sensors are combined with a pair of 2MP sensors for macro and depth shots. The F21 Pro 5G’s camera setup is potent for daylight shots, while for the low-light photography users can make use of the dedicated Night mode.
The primary camera at the back of the Vivo V23 measures the same as the OPPO model, i.e, a 64MP main camera with an f/1.9 aperture. The main camera is paired up with an 8MP ultrawide angle sensor that has 120-degree FoV and an additional 2MP snapper for macro shots.
The imaging experience on the VIVO V23 5G will be similar to that of the OPPO F21 Pro 5G. The OPPO F21 Pro 5G enhances the selfie experience with the 32MP Sony IMX709 main camera. The VIVO V23 5G features a dual selfie camera module comprising a 50MP+ 8MP setup.
OPPO F21 Pro 5G Vs Vivo V23 5G: Battery Backup And Fast Charging Speeds
The OPPO F21 Pro is driven by a 4,500 mAh battery. This decent-sized batter is expected to give a backup of more than half a day on a single charge and with moderate to extensive usage. The F21 Pro 5G comes with 33W fast charging support for quick refuels. The VIVO V23 5G draws its power from a slightly smaller 4,200 mAh battery. However, it balances out the smaller battery size with the faster 44W charging speeds.
If we go by the spec sheet, both OPPO F21 Pro 5G and the VIVO V23 5G are well-loaded devices in the premium mid-range Android segment. You can expect a similar power delivery, viewing, and imaging experience on both these 5G phones.
