The ZuPick verdict

2.9out of 5
SkipBest at performance, weakest at value.

The HMD Vibe2 5G combines smooth scrolling, 5G and a large battery, but its soft display, slow charging, limited memory and basic camera hold it back. Its price is the central concern.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.
Performance3.7
It scores about 512,000 on AnTuTu, which is solid for this price, and 5G is supported. Everyday apps should run smoothly, though 4 GB RAM limits demanding games and heavy multitasking.
Camera2.4
The 50 MP main camera and 8 MP selfie camera cover basic daylight photography. The lack of optical stabilization makes low-light photos and handheld recording less dependable.
Display2.8
The 120 Hz refresh rate keeps motion smooth, but the 720x1600 LCD lacks the crispness of Full HD screens. Its large size makes that softness easier to notice.
Battery2.6
The 6000 mAh capacity is generous, but 18 W charging is slow for such a large battery. It lasted 10 hours 42 minutes in the PCMark test, which is modest for the capacity.
Value2.2
The ₹14,999 price is difficult to justify with only 4 GB RAM, 64 GB storage and an HD+ screen. The large battery and 5G help, but stronger alternatives are available for similar money.

Pros & cons

What’s good
Smooth 120 Hz scrolling

The 120 Hz refresh rate makes menus, web pages and social feeds feel fluid. It is a welcome feature for everyday use.

Large 6000 mAh battery

The 6000 mAh battery has enough capacity for a full day of calls, browsing and video. Lighter users may stretch it further.

Useful 5G connectivity

5G support makes the phone suitable for newer mobile networks. Dual-SIM support is convenient for keeping personal and work numbers together.

Practical IP64 protection

IP64 protection provides reassurance against dust and accidental splashes. Expandable storage of up to 1 TB is also useful for downloaded media.

What’s not
Weak value at launch

At ₹14,999, the 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage combination feels restrictive. Several similarly priced phones offer sharper screens or more memory.

Low-resolution large display

The 720x1600 screen is noticeably less sharp than Full HD alternatives, especially across a large 6.75-inch panel. Fine text and high-resolution video will look softer.

Slow 18 W charging

The large battery takes over two hours to charge from 20% to full. Short charging sessions will add power relatively slowly.

Basic stabilized photography

The 50 MP main camera can produce usable daylight photos, but it lacks optical stabilization. Dim indoor scenes and night shots need a steady hand.
