The best smartphone from BBK Electronics - Vivo, Oppo or OnePlus?

Oppo is made in the classic mirror gradient design, already typical for mid-range budget employees. The plastic case corresponding to the price, in two color schemes. It's not unusual that the volume rocker is on the left instead of the right. It does get better with time though.

The camera module is not bulky, but placed on a small pedestal, where dust will really like to accumulate. But this is a distinctive feature of today's three contestants. Immediately stands out a single style in the design.

OnePlus' durable case with a virtually borderless display and matte back cover looks impressive. It seems that the phone is not the average budget range, but a simple, but flagship. Still, the meeting on clothes immediately sets a positive tone. Moreover, the back side is made of polycarbonate, one of the most durable types of plastic. Recyclers, thumbs up.

In Vivo, budget can be determined by the location of the front camera in the middle. After all, his appearance aspires to his older flagship brothers. Although the glossy iridescent back cover will seem too glamorous and inexpensive to some, you feel a pleasant device in your hands.

Approximately equal dimensions of the test subjects, but from a different weight category. And how else, because more powerful batteries immediately gave weight to OnePlus and Vivo. The built-in Reno 5 Lite scanner under the screen is already becoming an amateur. The response of this principle is no longer pleased with the speed after trying the scanner in the side button.

And only Nord N200 stood out at least some, but protection from modest drops of rain. Not from a downpour or complete immersion, but you will have time to answer on a social network under a light drizzle. Competitors couldn't even do that.

OnePlus is the only one that stands out from the group with its screen refresh rate. Although the type of matrix is ​​​​IPS, but the extremely high color accuracy puts it above many amoleds for the same price. According to the brightness of the display, the places were distributed in the following order: OnePlus, Oppo and the most faded Vivo. Somehow Vivo let us down a little, despite the largest screen compared. So, it will differ later in other virtues (I hope).

Comparing three mid-budget phones, one could expect an equal fight. Oppo is slightly different with his amoled, but this is just a nuance.OnePlus easily surpassed both in brightness and frequency. For the rest of the criteria, there was an almost imperceptible difference.

Although 128 GB of memory in the phone is considered sufficient for most, but few people pay attention to the type of drive. And here is the main secret. The UFS generation is noticeably ahead of eMMC. But there are exceptions when the write speed of outsiders exceeds. So how not to get confused? The reality is that you will not feel a visible difference with a simple eye, unless you want to play WoT Blitz. And then, seconds will be separated by loading.

In benchmark performance tests, the Reno 5 Lite outperforms the Y53s by a modest 5-10 percent. The Vivo handles day-to-day tasks well, with plenty of power for most average games. Additional 2 GB of RAM the phone takes at the expense of built-in memory. Pay for 6 and get 8 GB, a very good deal. But OnePlus did not please with iron. Either the filling let us down, or the built-in OxygenOS 11 system (based on Android 11), but you can see what lags are and what they eat with.

All three phones have a classic set of modules and connectors. The same 5th generation Wi-Fi, Type-C, actively replacing microUSB. It's already harder to find a mid-budget smartphone without NFC.

The only thing that Vivo has not yet improved the Bluetooth module to version 5.1. Although the older version is not as optimized, it does not significantly affect life with a smartphone. This option will be an exception for fans of a wireless headset.

And for dessert, fans of wired headphones. Each model has a 3.5mm port. After all, in fact, he does not interfere with anyone. Sat down bluetooth headphones - there is always the opportunity to switch to a wire. But you definitely won’t be left without music (as long as the battery is alive).

And let's add a small plus to OnePlus due to the presence of 5G. But this is purely functional, more precisely, regional. For example, in Russia, the launch of the technology was postponed until 2024. How many times can you have time to change the device before it really comes into use?

Finally, we came to a comparison of smartphones according to the most excellent indicators in the table. If even a schoolboy already understands the numbers by megapixels, then it becomes more difficult with the aperture point.

The higher the f-number, the more closed the aperture of your smartphone camera.And the size of this hole directly affects the depth of field of the frame. Agree, looking at a flat world is much worse. That is, for a beautiful blurring of the surrounding background, one must strive for the minimum value of f. By the way, just the information is useful for lovers of the bokeh effect.

In very simple words, photography lovers try to choose f / 1.7, not f / 2.2. Now you can imagine how today's phones will be further evaluated based on this criterion.

Oppo has advantages in recording 4K video with the main camera, and other video modes are twice as good as Vivo. Although the resolution of the photo almost did not reach the leader's place, but 4 lenses immediately singled out the favorite. Excellent detail in good light, but immediately the mood drops when the weather conditions worsen.

Vivo pulls only at the expense of the main 64 megapixels. The remaining modules are already useless due to the 2 megapixel matrix. But the main 64 draws the picture with a bang. Rain outside or night, it doesn't matter. Image quality will not suffer much from modest noise.

OnePlus only has a front-facing camera that records in 4K. Also, don't forget about image stabilization. But for those who are especially demanding, the lack of a wide-angle camera can become critical. As a result, the photos are faded with noise and blurry.Also disappointed with the night mode and unnatural selfies after the built-in algorithms for improving appearance. Video up to 1080p and 30 fps. It becomes clear that the manufacturer's flagship parameters are too, too far away. But there was hope.

Among the indicators of autonomy, only Oppo came out as an outsider with its 4310 mAh. The rest of the smartphones show an average of 5 thousand mAh. But I was able to stand out with reverse charging. And this is already a small plus in the piggy bank. After all, if you wish, you can share a drop of energy with friends.

Too bad the Nord can't compete on charging speeds. Otherwise, the leading position would have been secured to him. Although, according to tests of autonomy, he will not have to prove something to others. Watching a video for 17 hours is not for you.

And Vivo modestly shows the best choice among batteries. With the fastest charging and 5000 mAh, it brings a feeling of stability and power. Unfortunately, you can not count on additional buns.

Oppo annoyed customers with a plastic case, weak battery and weak vibration. You can still figure out the vibrating alert if you have time to get into the engineering menu.The battery is no doubt frustrating. Still, the screen is more than 6 inches, and the powerful filling allows you to operate the device "not like a child." But you will have to put up with the case, the bulk of state employees are dressed in plastic. Here it is already necessary to build on the quality of the case, the backlash of parts and ergonomics. Vivo upsets customers with a screen. Not surprising, given the analysis of the characteristics of the display. To put it bluntly, with such battery parameters, the screen could be several orders of magnitude better. But for this we would pay the price. So it's a double edged sword.

Reno 5 Lite pleases with good communication quality, fast charging, a camera and a customizable always on display function. It's nice to know that the phone lives up to its advertised specifications. After all, often among the class of the average budget come across inflated parameters. For example, with truncated values. Despite our evaluation of the camera, real buyers have given us a great tip on how to work with the functionality. This will greatly improve the quality of your pictures. Among the reviews about Vivo, there is a maximum of positive in terms of screen quality and long battery life.

OnePlus Nord N200 is not included in the rating due to limited sales through the official company store, so we give it the last place with an average rating. But you can always build on the words of the reviewers who managed to try the smartphone on the tooth personally.Most note the discrepancy between price and quality. Excellent design, powerful battery, bright screen with good hertz could not outshine the weak hardware of the device. Yes, and support for 5G, for which the buyer puts a decent amount out of his pocket, is a so-so advantage in our realities. The main path of OnePlus is flagships, and the company has managed to establish itself in it. But in the niche of the average budget, it still does not pull.

The disadvantage of OnePlus is that it cannot be bought on the usual popular marketplaces. Still, the model is sharpened for the US market. But with a strong desire, there are always branded representatives from the manufacturer. So he has a single price for the inhabitants of Russia.

Oppo and Vivo price variations differ from store to store. But even in one market, the price can jump depending on the chosen color of the product. So lovers of non-standard colors, prepare to pay a few thousand more for a glamorous overflow of "rainbow sky" or purple.

Let's recap this wild battle between the subsidiaries of BBK Electronics. Each manufacturer has chosen its own niche and direction in development. This affected the quality, components and differences of smartphones.

OnePlus has made another attempt to enter the mid-budget market. Focusing on flagships, the company decided to try its luck in the hands of more modest buyers.But, as we see, so far it fails miserably. The most flagship design, bright and juicy IPS delight customers. But the lack of decent performance kills the whole essence of the smartphone.

Oppo and Vivo balance roughly on an equal footing. The first draws due to the design, screen and connection quality. The second showed a slight advantage in the camera, battery and customer choice. The result is equal, and the choice of the favorite is up to you.
