The ZuPick verdict

3.5out of 5

ConsiderBest at display, weakest at camera.

The Lava Virat Curve 5G gets the essentials right with a smooth AMOLED display, strong battery life and above-average everyday performance. It is easier to recommend for battery-focused users than for buyers who want stronger cameras or more future-proof memory.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.

Performance3.8

It scores about 876,000 on AnTuTu, which puts it above the middle of this price range. Day-to-day use will feel quick, but 6 GB RAM and UFS 2.2 storage are more mid-pack than standout.

Camera1.9

This is a fairly basic camera setup for the money. The 50 MP main camera with an f/1.8 lens should handle daylight shots reasonably well, but the lack of optical stabilisation, limited video ceiling and modest 13 MP selfie camera hold it back.

Display3.9

The AMOLED screen and 120 Hz refresh rate give it the right basics for this price, with smooth motion and rich contrast. The 1080x2400 resolution is sharp enough, though the overall screen package stops short of the best panels in this range.

Battery3.9

The 6000 mAh battery is a clear plus and should comfortably handle a full day of demanding use. Charging is decent rather than fast, so the big battery helps more with endurance than quick top-ups.

Value3.5

At ₹23999, it gets several important things right, especially battery size, display quality and overall speed. The value is good rather than exceptional because the camera hardware, charging speed and 6 GB RAM are less competitive.

Pros & cons

What’s good

Strong everyday speed

It scores about 876,000 on AnTuTu, which is comfortably above the middle of what this price usually delivers. App switching, daily use and casual to moderately heavy gaming should feel smooth.

Big battery life

The 6000 mAh battery is a real strength in this range. It should comfortably last a full day of heavy use and can stretch further with lighter use.

Good screen basics

The curved AMOLED panel gives you deep blacks and better contrast than LCD rivals. The 120 Hz refresh rate also keeps scrolling and animations fluid.

Useful durability touches

IP64 water resistance adds some peace of mind for splashes and dust. The in-display fingerprint sensor also helps the phone feel more modern than basic mid-range options.

What’s not

Slow charging for size

45W charging is only average here, and a full charge in 92 minutes feels long for a phone with this battery size. Rivals with faster top-ups are more convenient if you charge in short bursts.

Camera setup is basic

The 50 MP main camera should do fine in daylight, but this is not a versatile camera phone. There is no telephoto reach, so zoom shots rely on digital crop and lose detail quickly.

Only 6 GB RAM

6 GB RAM is workable, but it is not generous at this price. Heavier multitasking and longer-term use are where 8 GB rivals have a clearer advantage.
