Talking about the AI main function, well, the AI integrated into the camera software helps shape the body on both devices. The AI body shaping grants the re-shaping of the body parts like the waist, head, shoulders, legs and etc.
VIVO V15 and V15 PRO PERFORMANCE AND OS
VIVO V15 and V15 PRO are both powered by a powerful processor. V15 is powered by a flagship chipset; the MTK Helio P70 which is also found on the recently launched ELEPHONE U2 with massive specs and a pop-up camera just like the VIVO V15 and V15 PRO.
The processor is an Octa-core with a clocked speed of 2.1GHz and is further assisted with a 6GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage for operating the device seamlessly and the internal storage can be further expanded up to 256GB using a memory card.
VIVO V15 PRO is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 675AIE octa-core processor which delivers premium performance. We have a 6GB/8GB RAM model of the V15 PRO with 128GB internal memory which can be further expanded using an SD card up to 256GB.
Both devices run on Funtouch OS v9.0 based on Android 9.0 Pie and the device is said to receive an update of the Android Q which is coming soon.
Now to the power; we have a 4,000mAh non-removable battery capacity with a fast charging technology (Dual engine fast charge tech) on the V15, while the V15 PRO is powered by a 3,700mAh battery capacity with same fast charging tech.
why do they have to make the battery of the V15 larger than the V15 PRO is probably a market strategy, fans either go for the camera, processor or for the power, very wise?
OTHER SPECS
VIVO V15 is designed with the traditional fingerprint style located at the back, while the V15 PRO features an in-display fingerprint sensor. Both devices are equipped with Bluetooth v5.0 and they support the following connectivity features: OTG, GPS, FM, and Wi-Fi with 2.4GHz/5GHz with 4G LTE.
Sensors include: Accelerometer, ambient light sensor, e-compass, gyroscope and fingerprint sensor.
VIVO V15 and V15 PRO PRICE IN NIGERIA
V15 is sold for 110,000 naira ($315) while the V15 PRO goes for 163,000 naira ($467) which is way too expensive, to be honest.
The Elephone U2 has quite the same specs and super in design and camera than the V15, yet it cheaper.
Compared the performance of both the devices, and I think Vivo V15 is better than its pro version. The processor of both phones differ in their work and intent is that Snapdragon, used in Vivo V15 pro, is losing its credibility time to time and we have MediaTek Helio P70 which is quite reliable.
you have a point
