00:00Good day, you beautiful people.
00:10Welcome to Esa Das Tech, where we do tech in your life in style.
00:13In today's video, we check out the Vivo V29e.
00:15Join me as I take it out for the day to see just what this phone can do.
00:19And of course, as we check out those phone cameras as well.
00:22Now, before we move on, let's take a closer look at this phone.
00:30So as you guys know and as you can see, I'm at the studio right now.
00:51This is where all the magic happens for my content.
00:54And technically, the vlog will also start here.
00:57Now, let's talk about the Vivo V29e first.
00:59The thing is, this is the more affordable version of the very popular V-series device, the Vivo V29.
01:05If you've followed along on the channel, you know that I'm very fond of the V-series phones.
01:10Specifically because I've always felt like these are phones that look so good
01:15and are more catered to a demographic like mine who are more concerned about pretty phones that perform.
01:20Now, this phone is also the phone to check out if you're wanting that aura lighting effect
01:25that we've previously seen on the Vivo V-series phones.
01:28Gotta be honest, the last time I checked out the aura portrait lighting was on the Vivo V27.
01:33And if you haven't seen that video, I'll link it up here and down below.
01:35But basically, I took the phone out to test and see just what the fuss was about with this aura portrait lighting.
01:41And lo and behold, I was impressed.
01:43So the question now becomes, how good will this phone be when it comes to those features?
01:48Especially because this phone comes at a better price tag.
01:51Let's start the vlog.
01:53Okay, just for context, this is my view when I shot the whole A-roll.
01:58My camera right there.
01:59This is 1x 1080p with the rear camera.
02:02And you can go wide.
02:05So say hi to my studio.
02:07Back to 1x.
02:09Ooh, wait, this is actually 1.3x.
02:11And let's see how much I can zoom in.
02:13Ooh, that's a 10x zoom.
02:16That's me on the mirror.
02:18Back to 1x or wide.
02:22So you can toggle the zoom this way so you get a nice and even zoom in or zoom out.
02:28Or you can pinch in and pinch out like I just did at the start of this clip to get an instant zoom in.
02:34We were shooting in 1080p 30fps.
02:37This is 1080p 60fps now, as you can see.
02:41Again, I know I'm not gonna be exporting this video with those two different resolutions.
02:47But I just thought you guys would like to see how the footage looks.
02:51And on 60fps, you can do 1x.
02:56Up.
02:57Until.
03:01Whoa.
03:02Actually, also 10x.
03:04Back to 30fps this time.
03:06Let me tell you guys, I've been so annoyed because the whole time I was shooting, you know who was talking?
03:11Emo.
03:121080p on the selfie camera.
03:14That's enough emo for today.
03:16This is walking and talking.
03:19You can do wide.
03:22Ooh.
03:23Up until 2x.
03:26Wide.
03:27♪♪♪
03:44Oh, we have a couple of like makeup and beauty.
03:48And of course, we've seen these before.
03:50There is a really cool posture feature on Vivo phones where they actually outline poses that you can use
03:57based on like whatever nice photogenic pose you want.
04:02So, see?
04:03There are even couple poses, friend poses.
04:07And then also on makeup, Vivo is very good at this.
04:10Like, they have all these cool different filters.
04:13And you can even change intensity to make it look a little bit more natural.
04:18I usually like toggle it down and pick up a look.
04:20There's also a very detailed beauty mode.
04:22But again, I always say this in all of my camera tours.
04:25The beauty mode is fun to make you seem a little bit fresher.
04:27But there's nothing wrong with unfiltered you.
04:30So, front-facing camera right now, I took a couple of selfies.
04:33So, one is without any filter.
04:35Number two is your...
04:37Wait.
04:38Let me check.
04:39Okay, I'm back.
04:40Number two is your natural.
04:42Number three is a classic beauty mode.
04:45And the fourth sample with me doing this is a sample with makeup on it.
04:50So, a makeup filter was put on this.
04:53And if you may not have noticed, this is being shot on 720p with a front-facing camera
04:57because I also have a filter on right now.
05:00This is not real.
05:02I mean, I have makeup on but this is not my look.
05:05Let me show you.
05:06This is without the filter.
05:08Let me pick out another makeup filter just so you can see.
05:11This is another look.
05:12So, actually on video, I don't think it's just a makeup filter.
05:15It's a filter for the whole thing because I'm seeing my background change.
05:20Just another sample.
05:22Here we go.
05:23Another one.
05:24Look.
05:25I got blush on this area of my face which I obviously do not have in real life.
05:29And just as a reminder, this is up at 69% and you can toggle down the makeup filter
05:36and the filter itself to suit your taste.
05:42Talking and talking now.
05:43Shooting with a front-facing camera of this phone.
05:45I spent the whole morning doing errands.
05:48And of course, after that, we had lunch.
06:07And what lunch would be complete without dessert.
06:10So, we're doing that.
06:11Steady mode with the rear camera right now.
06:131080p, 30fps.
06:24I was shooting in wide selfie camera but you can also do it.
06:30That's too much.
06:31Well, this is 2x.
06:32This is 2x.
06:381.4.
06:40Wait.
06:41Yeah.
06:42This is 1x now.
06:45Wide up until 10x.
06:52So, the Vivo V series, they're known for very powerful selfie cameras as well.
06:57The Vivo V2090 is no exception.
06:59This front-facing camera is a 50MP selfie camera.
07:09There are so many different settings on this phone.
07:18So, I showed you earlier the different filters.
07:21But there's even a remove moles option here.
07:24I'm gonna tap that off.
07:26But you also have, of course, different ways to take your photos.
07:30My favorite is the palm shutter.
07:32So, we'll turn that on.
07:34This also has eye auto focus.
07:36So, now we can take selfie like this.
07:38Selfie like this.
07:49Oh, and by the way, that eye auto focus also works on videos.
07:57Okay, I don't know how that test would have done anything but you get the idea.
08:01I mean, aside from all of that, this is an absolutely beautiful phone.
08:05I'm not sure if you can see with this light.
08:07I'll try to add a shot that shows it.
08:10But there are details to this blue back.
08:13Like those little speckles of glimmer and sparkle that just makes it really, really cute.
08:20It's honestly also a premium feeling phone.
08:23I like the in-hand feel.
08:24Some people hate it when reviewers talk about how phones feel in your hand.
08:28But let me promise you, it makes a difference.
08:31It's also 2.30pm and I've been using this phone since this morning.
08:36I left the house at around 10.30 thereabouts and I am at 75%.
08:42It's true.
08:58So, I just got back home and it's been interesting.
09:03I basically had to pry open a package that I got that was in a crate.
09:10Just another day but moving on.
09:12Before I go though, let me introduce you guys to someone very new to our family.
09:17Hello.
09:19Hi.
09:21Hello.
09:22Look at this cutie pie.
09:30What you doing?
09:33It is now 4.30 and my battery is at 63%.
09:39It says here that I have 11 hours left.
09:41Good because we're still going to do some low light shooting with this phone.
09:44We're also going to be trying out that Aura Portrait Lighting.
09:47Now, I will say that I've been using this thing all throughout.
09:50I'm a very big multi-tasker.
09:52So, that means emails, writing scripts, being on social media.
09:56And according to my usage, I've been using camera, Instagram, and Telegram the most the whole day.
10:02I've been pretty happy with this phone performance.
10:04It's not laggy at all.
10:06It's fast and snappy.
10:07Perfect for people like me who switch around windows and multi-task
10:10and do a lot of things on their phone all the time at the same time all day.
10:14So, I'm pretty happy about that.
10:16Anyway, it's been a day but I still have one more thing today.
10:20So, I'll see you in a hot second.
10:24Out again for dinner and some drinks.
10:27Well, we'll see about the drinks.
10:29I'm not so sure about the drinks.
10:33We're getting old.
10:34But I will say that I'm shooting with a front-facing camera right now.
10:38And this is the wide walking and talking.
10:40And this is what that looks like.
10:54Time check.
11:07Time check.
11:08It is now 7.30.
11:10And battery-wise, we are at 43%.
11:14It does say here that because you've used your phone more than usual,
11:18your battery may run out sooner than it would normally.
11:21And these are the top 3 apps I've been on.
11:24Comes as no surprise.
11:25But also, it says here that 43% will last me around 7 hours.
11:30Now, you've seen how battery performed in the restaurant.
11:34That's not the best lighting but it did pretty well.
11:37Now, I wanna test out Aura portrait lighting.
11:40And if you don't know what that is, let me show you.
11:42Let's go on to camera, photo.
11:45Get to the selfie part of it.
11:47And under flash, you'll see Aura light.
11:50So, that is basically this rounded light.
11:53And what's great about Aura lighting is that you can now change the temperature of the lighting.
11:59That means you can get specific different feels for your photos even in low light.
12:04So, for example, this is like white but let's toggle nearer.
12:11Do you see how that changes?
12:13So, now the lighting is a little warmer.
12:16So, that will give you that golden glow.
12:18If you want something in between, you can toggle to the middle.
12:22That's a little bit more whitish yellow.
12:24And then you can actually do white.
12:27That's pretty cool.
12:28It works on both photos and portraits.
12:30Time to test this out.
12:35Oh my gosh.
12:36You can clearly see the difference that that flash made.
12:40I am liking that more yellow, more orange flash because it gives you like a glow.
12:46I think I'm gonna try and experiment with that like glow more.
12:50It's not gonna be...
12:51I'm not gonna toggle it to the end because I feel like that's a little bit too yellow at least for this background.
12:56But I feel like it could work really, really well.
12:59Oh my gosh, look.
13:00There are also like different filters.
13:03That's so cute.
13:04These are under like portrait photos.
13:06Let's try this party filter.
13:11Oh.
13:17Wow.
13:21Let's try flash portrait this time.
13:28That's so interesting though.
13:29Like the flash, they change depending on the filter.
13:33I just realized something.
13:34So for the party style, when you take the photo, it asks you to actually shake the phone.
13:40So you get the effect.
13:42See?
13:47This is my favorite filter.
13:51It screams alchemy circa 20.
13:55I'm kidding.
13:57I'm kidding.
14:14So the Aura Light also works for video which is amazing for vlogging.
14:18And here we have the white setting.
14:20Let's toggle the color temperature.
14:24You can actually move it as you're recording and here we're on the other side of the spectrum.
14:29Spectro.
14:30Spectro.
14:32And for comparison's sake, this is without any Aura Lighting.
14:50So this is honestly pretty useful.
14:52You can vlog anytime, anywhere.
14:54You don't even need to consider the lighting situation because you'll be fine with Aura Lighting.
15:00The day ended at 10.20 for me and that left me with around 22% battery.
15:05Which isn't bad considering that's around 12 hours of use and I've been vlogging the whole day.
15:10Of course, the phone did say that I used it way more than one normally would.
15:14And surprise, the number one app for me was the camera.
15:17According to this, I also got around 5 hours and 40 minutes of screen on time with that one charge.
15:24And that was our day with the Vivo V29e.
15:26Let me know what you guys think.
15:27Comment down below all details on pricing and availability.
15:30I'll be adding in the description box.
15:32That's it for today.
