The new Vivo T3 Ultra 5G packs a flagship MediaTek Dimensity Processor and dual rear cameras. Here’s everything to know about it.

Vivo T3 Ultra 5G Vs Vivo V40
Vivo T3 Ultra starts at Rs 31,999 and goes up to Rs 35,999, close to Vivo V40’s starting price of Rs 34,999. That might confuse you as to which one to consider, and it seems like the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G is the better choice for those who want a more performance-oriented handset.
The T3 Ultra 5G packs faster LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 3.1 storage compared to Vivo 40’s LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.2 storage. If that wasn’t enough, the top model of T3 Ultra offers you more RAM and storage than the starting model of V40 and costs Rs 1,000 less on top of that. Most importantly, the MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ in the T3-series device is a far more powerful Chipset compared to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 used in Vivo V40. The display, battery, and charging speeds remain identical.
Cameras is where the Vivo V40 takes the lead and also impressed us the most in its review. The Vivo V40 features Zeiss optics which the T3 Ultra doesn’t, while it also gets a superior ultra-wide angle camera sensor. We can’t really confirm if the Vivo V40 takes better photos than the T3 Ultra as we haven’t used the latter but we can tell you so based on the on-paper specs comparison of the two.
Overall, by the looks of it, we feel the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G is worth purchasing in its segment not only over the Vivo V40, but also some of its other competitors.
