lava agni 4 review a week in vietnam with lavas most ambitious phone yet...

At ₹24,999, the Lava Agni 4, if nothing else, is an honest, ambitious all-rounder that needs a bit of refinement. It feels like a confident step forward for Lava, delivering a genuinely premium in-hand feel, a sharp AMOLED display, and a reliable main camera that performs well in good lighting. Every day performance is smooth, fast charging makes up for average battery life, and the clean Android experience is refreshing. However, heating under heavy use, middling low-light camera results, and unrefined AI features hold it back from being truly great. Still, as an all-rounder with strong fundamentals and distinctive design, the Agni 4 stands out as one of Lava’s most ambitious and well-rounded phones yet.

Pros

  • Premium design
  • Bright AMOLED display
  • Fast charging

Cons

  • Heats under load
  • Weak low light
  • Average speakers

lava agni 4 review a nationalism flavour but still long way to perfectio...

Lava Agni 4 walks in proudly carrying the ‘Made in India’ tag. But can patriotism alone power a great smartphone? I’ve been using this phone for the last two weeks, and I got something better compared to last year’s Lava Agni 3. Lava enhanced its performance segment, making the strongest phone in the Lava lineup. But I felt that the brand should work more on the camera segment, as well as design and appearance. Let’s read my detailed Lava Agni 4 review.

Pros

  • Powerful MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset delivers flagship-like performance
  • LPDDR5X RAM + UFS 4.0 storage ensures super-fast app loading and smooth multitasking
  • Excellent thermal management with no heating issues, even in long BGMI sessions
  • Strong 10+ hour screen time, offering reliable all-day battery life
  • 66W fast charging fills 50% in just 19 minutes
  • Clean, near-stock Android 15 UI with no bloatware
  • Useful action button with deep customisation
  • 6.67-inch AMOLED 120Hz display with 2400-nit peak brightness
  • Gorilla Glass 5 protection
  • Aluminium frame adds a premium and durable feel

Cons

  • Camera performance is weak despite a 50MP sensor
  • Poor colour accuracy, inconsistent skin tones, weak dynamic range
  • Portrait mode struggles with edge detection and depth
  • Subject focusing issues in 1x and 2x, even in good lighting
  • Heavy at 208 grams; could be more ergonomic
  • Only an IP64 rating, while competitors offer higher protection
  • Ultrawide camera is average, lacking detail and depth
