Moving to the Vivo T1 5G, the flat edge design language of the phone makes it stand out. Similar to the high-end V and X series models, it has a robust rail around the edges and a matte finish. It sports a screen-to-body ratio of 83.9 percent and a 6.58-inch full HD+ LCD display on the display front.

On the other hand, the Oppo K10 5G is a phone with a striking visual appeal. The smartphone’s back panel, which has a soft glow to it, will draw your attention from a distance. The 6.56-inch LCD display panel of the Oppo K10 5G has HD+ resolution. It has a 90Hz refresh rate.
