Which phone is more suitable for you？Vivo v15 vs Samsung Galaxy A50 camera blind test/ Spec/ Review by Phone & Photo

In the current fashion for SS 2019 smartphones, a pop-up camera is definitely a highlight. 😋 

To increase the screen-to-body ratio, mobile phone makers finally figured out an innovative solution - hide the selfie camera and turn it into a pop-up camera.

Vivo V15, one of the players in this blind test battle, is a typical pop-up camera. We are going to show you how it performs in terms of image quality in this test and more camera samples.
