ESPECIALLY in this era, photos and videos are a priceless treasure trove of memories, stories and experiences. However, capturing these milestones need not come with a hefty price tag or unnecessary hassles.

With advancements in smartphone technology, many people already carry high-quality phone cameras right in their pockets, making it easy to shoot candid moments anytime and anywhere. Smartphones have changed the game with their portability and capability of producing studio-level photos and videos without the need for bulky and expensive professional-grade gear.

A strong player when it comes to mobile photography these days is one that just recently entered the market: the vivo V30e.

With its advanced camera capabilities, long-lasting battery life and generous storage, this latest addition to the vivo V30 series lineup makes for a reliable companion that supports users to get through their busy workdays or eventful personal lives.

Smart light master and video maker in one

Equipped with an improved version of Aura Light and intelligent color adjustment assistance, having the vivo V30e is like having a personal light director, who is responsible for making sure each photo is clear and bright.

The vivo V30e features a professional portrait system with Aura Light 3.0 as a powerful light-filling tool. Unlike a typical flash, Aura Light 3.0 produces softer, more natural lighting for portrait photos even in low-light environments.

With Aura Light 3.0's adjustable tones that range from warm to cool light, users and photography enthusiasts are given the flexibility to explore lighting variations that bring different moods and a different vibe to each photo.

For added convenience, users can turn on the automatic Aura Light color temperature setting that smartly adjusts the light to be evenly and naturally distributed in both the subject and environment.

Taking photos and videos under the stars or in the dark is also not a problem with vivo V30e's 50-megapixel (MP) Sony ultra-sensing camera. With such a high resolution and an advanced sensor technology, the smartphone camera makes night scenes appear more realistic and impactful.

Meanwhile, the V30e's super photosensitivity feature has been improved by 30 percent, compared to that of the vivo V29e. This upgrade preserves the true-to-life appearance of photos, producing the most accurate color reproduction without any color cast.

Whether enjoying hanging out with friends or spending quality time with the family, gather everyone for a quick photo opportunity, using the V30e's 8-MP wide-angle rear camera. With its 120-degree wide-angle view, the smartphone ensures no one gets left out of the frame while ensuring the clarity and crispness of details.

Recording videos with the V30e is quite an experience in itself. Besides the rear camera's ability to record 4K high-definition videos, it has a Micro Movie feature that comes with templates for users to tell stories and share clips and footage. Videos serve as more than just recordings; they are powerful tools for reliving the joy of traveling, feeling the warmth of special occasions and even reminiscing moments, shared with departed loved ones.

In addition to its two powerful rear cameras, the vivo V30e features a 32-MP high-definition front-facing camera that elevates selfies to a next level with a selection of empowering filters and advanced beautification features.

With V30e's 5500-milliampere-hour battery — the largest battery capacity in the Ve series to date — users can make the most out of all the abovementioned features without any interruptions.

People who are always on-the-go can depend on the V30e's fast-charging capabilities, ensuring peace of mind on hectic days. With its 44-watt FlashCharge functionality, the device can be fully charged in just 48 minutes.

When it's time for adventure, the V30e's sleek 7.65-millimeter thickness makes it a breeze to carry anywhere and to slip into small pockets or bags. The V30e also stands out for its durability, as proven in its Ingress Protection (IP) 64 rating, which further marks its suitability for outdoor use.

The V30e's IP 64 rating is the highest IP rating in the Ve series. The "6" in this rating signifies the device's complete protection from any entry of dust while "4" suggests that the V30e can withstand water splashes from any direction without resulting in any harmful effects.

Its ability to withstand immersion in water up to 5 feet deep for half an hour is a reassurance of durability to its users. It also shows the device's resistance from any accidental spills, unexpected rain showers or exposure to water during outdoor activities.

Interestingly, the V30e also possesses wet-touch technology that keeps the phone functional even when the user's hands are wet.

The vivo V30e's versatile features and advanced camera capabilities make it well-suited for outdoor adventures and daily use alike.

The vivo V30e (8 GB + 256 GB) is now available via Shopee, Lazada and TikTok.
