Is the vivo V40E 5G worth buying at ₹24,991?

Yes — at ₹24,991 the vivo V40E 5G is a buy, scoring 3.7 out of 5 against other phones at this price. It is strongest on display and weakest on value for money. That is the lowest we have recorded for it.

The ZuPick verdict

3.7out of 5
BuyBest at display, weakest at value.

The vivo V40E 5G gets the basics right and adds a few meaningful strengths, especially its display, charging speed and selfie camera. It is a sensible buy for people who want a stylish all-rounder more than a gaming-focused phone.

Performance3.4
Performance is decent rather than class-leading. It scores about 670,000 on AnTuTu, which is around the middle of what this price buys, and 8 GB RAM keeps everyday multitasking smooth. UFS 2.2 storage is adequate but not especially quick.
Camera3.5
The camera setup is fairly well-rounded. The 50 MP main camera with OIS and f/1.79 aperture should deliver steady daylight shots and more dependable low-light photos than basic rivals, while 4K video and a 50 MP selfie camera add versatility. The lack of a telephoto lens limits zoom quality.
Display4.4
This is a strong screen for the money. The AMOLED panel, 120 Hz refresh rate and very high 4500 nits peak brightness make it vibrant, smooth and easy to use outdoors, while the 1080x2392 resolution keeps it sharp.
Battery4.0
Battery life is one of the phone’s better areas. The 5500 mAh cell is comfortably above the usual 5000 mAh mark, the tested endurance is solid at 15h 51m, and 80W charging is fast enough to cut down waiting time.
Value3.3
At ₹24991, it offers a balanced package rather than exceptional value. You are getting a very good display, fast charging, a larger battery and useful camera features, but performance and storage speed are more middle-of-the-pack.

Pros & cons

What’s good
Excellent curved AMOLED

The 6.77-inch AMOLED display combines a curved design, Full HD+ sharpness and 120 Hz refresh rate. Peak brightness of 4500 nits also gives it a real edge for outdoor use.

Strong battery setup

The 5500 mAh battery is larger than what many rivals offer, and 80W charging is genuinely fast. A 20 to 100 percent top-up in 42 minutes makes daily charging easy.

Reliable everyday performance

It scores about 670,000 on AnTuTu, around the middle of what this price buys. Day-to-day use stays smooth, and it can handle casual to moderate gaming without trouble.

Good selfie camera

The 50 MP front camera stands out for this class and includes autofocus. It is a strong fit for video calls, selfies and social media content.

Useful camera extras

The 50 MP main camera gets OIS and 4K video recording, which helps it feel more dependable than basic spec-heavy setups. The ultra-wide camera adds flexibility for landscapes and group shots.

What’s not
Storage feels dated

UFS 2.2 storage is serviceable, but app installs, large game loading and file transfers are not as quick as the better storage systems some rivals now offer.

Performance is only average

The Dimensity 7300 is fine for everyday use, but this is not a standout gaming phone in its class. Heavier titles will need reduced settings for the best consistency.

No NFC support

NFC is still not common, but it is a useful extra for tap-to-pay and quick pairing. Its absence slightly reduces convenience versus better-equipped alternatives.

What owners say

From Reddit
r/GadgetsIndiau/Capable_Fall_1024

I've been using the Vivo V40E for a couple of weeks now, and I must say, the performance is outstanding! The Dimensity 7300 chipset really shines, providing a smooth experience whether I’m gaming or multitasking. It handles everything from heavy apps to casual browsing with ease.

r/GadgetsIndiau/vivaan08

I can see none. I have used Vivo's V series. It is much better and the UI is polished. Did not come across any bloatware. The V40E has good cameras, and a good screen with Dimensity 7300 which is a good chipset overall, and enough for most parents.

r/GadgetsIndiau/KrishSaxena

The Vivo V40E is powered by the Mediatek Dimensity 7300 chipset, which delivers impressive performance for multitasking and gaming. This octa-core processor handles demanding apps with ease, ensuring smooth operation even during heavy usage. Coupled with a stunning 6.77-inch AMOLED display, the visuals are vibrant and immersive.

r/Vivou/Lazy-Positive-5759

I bought phone 2 days ago , I clicked 100 photos till now and suddenly this one photo after clicking turned green. I took more photos in exact same position, they are normal. I just lost my shit after buying phone and it suddenly does this.
