Vivo V23 Pro review: Colour-changing glass selfie phone with dual front cams.

V23 Pro's photochromic Fluorite glass back changes from gold to blue-green in UV light — a genuine party trick. Combined with 50 MP dual front cameras and a slim curved AMOLED, it doubled down on the V-line's selfie-and-style identity.
