* TOP Software* TOP MidrangerMidrange

EDITORIAL: Like clockwork, Vivo took 6 months to bring a V60 update but this time the improvements are massive. V70 is almost 3mm narrower (!) and comes with a metal frame, same big battery, higher res screen and much faster memory. Processor and cameras are the same. Vivo is again positioning the V series at the top of the midrange world with a true and tried formula (great battery life + bright screen + reliable imaging).

PROs
narrower and better built with a more premium feel, fast UFS 4.1 memory, >30hr endurance from a 6500mAh Si/C Lithium battery with sub-60min 90W charging, >1900nits bright 450ppi AMOLED screen with HDR10+ certification, IP69 protection, very good 50MP 23mm OIS PDAF main + 50MP 85mm OIS PDAF periscope telephoto + an okay 8MP 15mm ultrawide setup, excellent 50MP 21mm AF selfie, Zeiss tech on all cameras, up to 4 years of updates of mature OriginOS
CONs
good SD 7 Gen 4 performance may not not be enough after 2 or 3 years of AI feature updates, no wireless charging, non-LTPO screen tech, no AF on a 8MP ultrawide, no expandable memory or Video out on a slow USB-C 2.0 port

7+14+15+12+9+3+3+0+3+0 = 66

EDITORIAL: Asus has added this Zenfone Ultra in 2024 and in 2025 they put away it’s more compact (and more interesting) smaller model. So it looks like they gave up on the “compact phone” idea and are turning towards more crowded and stiffer competition space. This, first Ultra of theirs was a good effort. (It you can still find it)

PROs
good SD 8 Gen 3 performance, great 2-day battery endurance with fast (40 minute to 100%) charging, bright 144Hz refresh rate screen, IP68 water protection.
CONs
76.8mm & 228gr size, not-so-Ultra-photo and video performance, no expandable storage, no desktop replacement software and just two years of OS updates policy. (updated Apr 2, 2025)
