Deep Dive:’s What Makes the T4 Ultra Stand Out
Camera Revolution
The Vivo T4 Ultra sports a stellar camera setup with a 50MP Sony IMX921-based main camera, OIS, an f/1.88 lens, and a large 1/1.56" sensor. However, the real star of the show is the 50MP periscope camera with 3x optical magnification, f/2.55 lens, OIS+EIS stabilization, and a 10x telephoto macro mode. Besides, it includes an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 32MP selfie camera with an f/2.45 lens. With this configuration, the T4 Ultra takes its place among the top mid-range smartphones for photography, excelling in telephoto capabilities.
Game Changer Performance
Powered by the High-end Dimensity 9300+ chipset, the T4 Ultra provides impressive performance, well-suited for demanding tasks like gaming. This chipset performs significantly better than other T4 models and their less powerful processors, such as the Dimensity 7300 and Snapdragon 7s Gen 3.
Competitive Edge: The T4 Ultra vs. iQOO Neo 10 & Motorola Edge60 Pro
- iQOO Neo 10 offers strong performance and battery life but slightly lags in camera capabilities compared to the T4 Ultra.
- Motorola Edge60 Pro, on the other hand, competes closely with the T4 Ultra in terms of display quality and technology, yet falls short in Netflix HDR support.
Final Verdict
The Vivo T4 Ultra shows promise as a strong contender in the mid-range market, delivering exceptional camera performance and robust gaming capabilities. However, it's essential to weigh specific needs and preferences when deciding between it and other models like the iQOO Neo 10 or Motorola Edge60 Pro.
The Vivo T4 Ultra boasts a remarkable camera setup consisting of a 50MP Sony IMX921-based main camera, a 50MP periscope camera with 3x optical magnification, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 32MP selfie camera. This configuration sets the T4 Ultra apart among top mid-range smartphones, excelling particularly in telephoto capabilities.
The T4 Ultra's performance is powered by the high-end Dimensity 9300+ chipset, delivering impressive performance suitable for demanding tasks like gaming. This sets it apart significantly from other T4 models and their less powerful processors, such as the Dimensity 7300 and Snapdragon 7s Gen 3.
