Vivo V25 scoring goals all round



The FIFA 2022 Soccer World Cup season is upon us and the anticipation for 20 November 2022 is a few more sleeps away.  However, while we await the overall tournament, one of the main sponsors has released a new line up of the V series. In total, there are three new devices, the Vivo V25e, V25 and V25 PRO: market dependent.  They all share the same design language, but if you look under the hood, they all bring their own power set, and this is due to the partnership Vivo has with MediaTek. The V25 5G with a MediaTek Dimensity900, and the V25e with a MediaTek Helio G99. These chips bring a variety of power options to the devices, e.g., MediaTek Intelligent Display Sync power, which intelligent power savings to maximize power daily without sacrificing battery life. The SOC is an Octa core-chip built on a 6nm process clocked at 2.4 GHz and 2.2 GHz respectively, tasks like gaming, video and battery life are controlled and optimized very well for the software included on this device.

I have been daily driving the Vivo V25 for the past few weeks, if you one of the lucky people headed to the World Cup with the Vivo V25 in hand you have made a good choice. Amongst the crowds, your device will catch everyone's eyes with its flashy colours Elegant Black, Sunrise Gold, Surfing Blue. The design of the device is squared off box shaped, and sits very comfortable in hand and does not cause any discomfort. The display gets super bright and features the following spec set: FHD 6.44 inches– AMOLED, 90Hz - 1300 nits (peak) if you an early riser allow your eyes to adjust before checking your daily feeds. The Amoled display is perfect for mobile gaming, I personally enjoy a good game of COD mobile with the optimized game modes. The display refreshes at 90 Hz with menus and contents looking buttery smooth, I would have loved to see a high frame rate 4K option on the device to view content in 2160P on the 90Hz display.

The front facing camera is a 50MP AF shooter, this means you will get the most perfect selfie even if you ended up jumping up and down when your favourite team scores. Round the back is a triple camera setup, 64 MP, f/1.8, (wide) OIS perfect for portrait and video, 8 MP, f/2.2 (ultra wide) landscape and group shot and a 2MP (macro) for the smaller items. The V25 captures very detailed pictures and video are awesome but.... There is only an option of 4K 30FPS and 30and 60 FPS capped at 1080P. There are various other software photo and video options, that will assist you with creating the perfect content but, the point and shoot option with the 64MP OIS camera will serve you well.



Vivo has various storage options on the V25 and this is market dependent, 128GB / 8GB RAM, 265/ 8GB RAM, 265/ 12GB RAM. If more seems like better to you Vivo, has you covered, even if you cannot get your hands on the 265/12GB version Vivo has the extended ram option whereby 8GB, is provided from internal storage. While using the device I think I managed to drain the battery only once, this is hardware and software integration and if you do manage to drain the battery, a 44W brick is included in the box that's able to get you from 0-61% in 30 minutes.




The Vivo V25 is a very strong recommendation due to the ability to adapt and make changes to their devices, keeping the price just right to challenge some of the competitors. With Black Friday around the corner, we might see some specials from various network provides and shop and maybe this is your year you become a champion with Vivo.

Connectivity demystified: Why it’s important to understanding the “language” of connectivity

-

  By Craig Blignaut, Product Manager: WiFi and Theo Van Zyl, Head of Wireless at Vox In an age where connectivity is the foundation of our digital existence, understanding the complexities of modern connectivity offerings is critical. The Internet, a global network of interconnected computers, devices and databases, makes it possible for us to access information and communicate from anywhere in the world. WiFi, on the other hand, allows us to connect our devices to the Internet. A WiFi connection can come from fibre, LTE, wireless or a satellite connection.   Making sense of connectivity While the distinction between WiFi and the internet might be obvious to some, others think about them as being one and the same. In part, this is because most users think about WiFi as something we use to connect to the Internet. So, if you can’t get online, you automatically assume that the bridge between you and the Internet – the WiFi – must be the issue. But this isn’t necessarily the case.

Partnership approach can help retailers get the best out of monitoring and security

-
By Rodney Taylor, Managing Director at Guardian Eye, a Vivica Group company From a smart retail perspective, it is crucial to understand that monitoring stock and other assets through camera surveillance and a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors stretches further than the stores themselves. Greater importance is being placed on protecting the entire value chain, which starts at distribution. Beyond just security, this technology is also being used to enhance operations and reduce costs.   Distribution Centres, many of which may feature 24/7 operations, are a vital cog in the chain for retailers, helping them ensure that their stores can be stocked with the right products as quickly as possible. However, these high-value centres - while a store might contain R3 million or R4 million of stock, a distribution centre might hold R50 million in merchandise - are the target of criminal activity as well, as seen during the July 2021 riots. As such, it is no surprise that retailers are
