Vivo’s selfie-focused mid-range V-series is back with the Vivo V23 and V23 Pro, and we have all the details on both.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Overall, we’re pretty disappointed with the Smart Speed 6. The camera lacks basic features that other budget smartphones have (autofocus) and its low resolution display is pretty off-putting.

It has a larger, 720p HD display, a faster processor, the MicroSD card slot handles up to 64GB, it has a higher resolution camera, its thinner and looks more premium than the Smart Speed 6....

Whether a VPN is secure or not in your eyes will also depend upon your priorities and why you want to use a VPN....
