Design

Let’s first check out their similarities with the design elements. All-screen display, check. Front camera, earpiece and sensors placement, check. Back facing finger print scanners, check. Rear camera placements, another check. Finally, SIM trays, also a check.

Now for their slight differences in design. The F5 youth is slightly longer than the V7 and is heavier when held together. At the bottom part, speakers and headphone jack oppose in placement with their charging ports in the middle.

Display

The F5 youth has a 6-inch 1080 x 2160 LTPS IPS LCD display while the Vivo V7 has a 5.7-inch 1440 x 720 IPS LCD display. Brightness levels and color representation also looks the same even with spec differences.

Camera

The rear shooter of the youth packs a 13 MP camera while the Vivo V7 has a 16 MP rear camera. The Vivo may have a slightly higher camera spec on paper but does it say so on photo results?

The first outdoor shot focuses on the tree on the center which at a closer look, loses some details on the V7 revealing noise compared to the F5 youth which maintains clarity. The V7 also loses some details in some distances which again, the Oppo retains.

 

The second shot are somewhat at par with detail sharpness. However, color representation is the first noticeable difference with the Oppo sticking to a warmer yet vibrant tone compared to the cooler vibes of the V7. Which do you prefer? These other shots may help you decide.

 

During night time shots, the F5 youth can capture more lighting than the V7 staying color accurate compared to the latter which turns some originally yellow lighting sources to white.

 

With the Vivo capturing less light than the Oppo, it shows some minute details which are not apparent on the F5 youth.

 

Front camera shots however are more color accurate on the V7 which leans on to the original skin tone of the subject compared to the Oppo which leans on to a white-pinkish tone.

 

Both phones also have a beauty filter which on the F5 youth makes the subject’s eyes pop out more and does not remove some facial features like hair strands and beauty marks which the V7 does.

 

The front cameras also have a depth effect mode which in our opinion works better on the V7 compared to the blurry edges finish of the F5 youth.

 

Low lit and night time shots on the F5 youth sometimes mix lighting with the subject’s skin tone which removes the original skin tone compared to the V7, check out yourselves and see.

 

Video recording on both phones can also go up to 1080p at 30 fps. When it comes to details, refer to our video at the end of the article.
