Dude that portrait shot, holy geezus. Honestly though Vivo is doing the work and producing great stuff right now

Indeed for stills. If you're main goal is to capture as many photos as you want, this is the number 1 pick for any portrait level photography.

How do you go into the vintage filer, couldn't find it

My experience with the Vivo X100Pro: Not a super heavy user like ben and i get 10 hours screen on time easily. In my area i have no 5G so i guess thats a factor. Gaming, Performance in general, battery life are really good. Camera is just annihilating the 15 pro max and the s23 ultra (have them both here). Got it in china for 630bucks.. the iPhone 15 pro max costs 1449 here 😂

It is unfair to compare Chinese prices with, for example, the UK, as you do not have 20% VAT, the costly EU regulations to pass, the 2-year warranty, extra band support, transport costs, etc. Also, due to VIVO's failure to pay for patent licenses, they are banned in some EU countries, and the X90 was not even released in the UK because of that.

Best part is Vivo's exclusive OS for China!.. Unlike the boring FunTouch OS..

Those pics are outstanding! Vivo can do street photography like a pro wow

I do agree 100% with you on this. Funtouch looks outdated, and we'd like an updated look for any future Vivo, with a flat panel, please. But we all know we really love Vivo's for their top-tier camera.

There's Vivo X100S with X100 specs and flatscreen coming in April 2024 along with X100 Pro+

Vivo is now lit in photography. Vivo cameras in the V29 pro is soo good. The Iqoo 12 however above it but then the Xseries is on top, their flagship. Any of the Vivo these 3 phones are Vivo's great camera centric phones.

Absolutely stunning photos Ben. Really gorgeous. What a great phone.

I've been waiting for this review from you!

Was waiting for you review on this ever since the news came out !! Big fan !

Fantastic review Ben. And those photos!!! Have to give your photographic perspective the credit it deserves as well, and not just attribute the results to the hardware. Excellent snaps!

I've been waiting for this video so long

Great looking photo's and thx for the video Ben!

I bought the X70 Pro + pretty much on launch and it's a fantastic phone, just in time for the concert season after the pandemic. Now I really want to replace it with the x100 Pro + but the recent leak of the Oppo Find X7 Ultra give me some toughts about that buy. Good vid, Ben, as usual.

For once I'm inclined to politely agree on practically every point you mention. I hope that some time down the line we could see a proper maxed out comparison of this generation: X100 Pro+, 15PM and S24 Ultra.

Pretty confident the X100 Pro+ is going to spank the S24U. Samsung really messed up this year, now that other phone manufacturers are bringing the real heat when it comes to zooming, Samsung gives up.... Hope they bring a high resolution 10x lens to the 25U.

great review as always ben!

Rapaz. Eu fico todo dia no weibo pra ver se descubro algo do vivo x100 pro plus. Está tudo muito calado. Eu uso o vivo x50 pro global funtouch e sinceramente o design das laterais do celular ainda é praticamente o mesmo. E o funtouch é muito xué, o meu só aceita icone do ZAP e Messenger no AOD, enquanto o da realme aceita vários. Certamente o vivo 100 pro plus ficará restrito ao mercado chinês, mas pelo que o Bem fala dele, vou esperimentar, mesmo que tenha suas restrições de idiomas e boatfloat... Sou apaixonado no zoom optico do meu, porém ele ainda é de 2020 e era só 8mp A propósito vc achou a versão global do x100 pro no Aliexpress? Eu não havia achado ainda.

*Aguardando o Vivo X100 Pro Plus!!!* 👏👏👏

Hello Ben, thank you for another nice review. The Vivo X100 Pro's photo samples look very good, well done

Hi Ben just received the phone. What a beauty is this.

As a European user of the X80pro I just hope they have become better at tuning Android for us. Android Auto for example doesn't work properly, some BT issues too. Other than that, it's all about the camera for me so here's hoping they'll bring their flagship model over to us and support it properly. They may need to buy some advertising too, as so few people even know of the manufacturer.

another great review. watching from the philippines.

I ordered the X100 Pro to replace my X90 Pro Plus and it was great for the first week then after an oxygen OS update the screen glitched and it would not read the SIM card I have a replacement coming from Hong Kong and I can't wait

It's a very easy-to-understand explanation. I'm looking at it with interest.

unreal shots. I'd be sold if the video was up to the same level of WOW. Thanks for the great video!

I am really really impressed with the results from this phone. Finally a phone that doesn't give u the smartphone look. Ik it's a phone but the results speak for themselves. I wanted a new phone like a Mi12 ultra but then my camera broke. I wanted to buy a newer camera as I already have lenses and stuff but this phone seems really good. I shoot M4/3 btw and not full frame.

at last, this is what ive been looking for

Thanks for the great review, Ben. I hope there will be a Vivo x100 pro plus.

Best camera phone ever. I am totally amazed by vivo X100 Pro's tele-lens. You can get amazing details at 10X, it's sharp with more details. Portait mode is also stunning. Can't believe that how X100 Pro+ or X100 Ultra released next year, which will shock me in a what way.

That black cat picture you took made me so sad. I haven't been taking pictures of my cat because the s23 ultra camera is horrible. He always comes out blurry or no details even in good lighting. Pixel was miles better.. That vivo is a dream machine!

If they are going to release x100 pro + ,that would be a perfect phone with snapdragon chip

That 25x portrait of yours is hilarious , made me laught badly bruh 😂😂😂😂 Great review and what a phone 👌🏽🥳🥳🥳

Great review!

Thank you so much for your insight. I'm amazed in this day and age, we're talking about Fstops and focal length, wide and zoom lenses. My career was newspaper photographer and I started in that business in the 1950s. But today I thought most people used their phone cameras as poiint and shoot. I have ordered a Vivo X100 Pro this week because of exactly what you wrote -- it produces some of the most amazing photos I've seen in a while. Also wanted to tank you for your guidance on best portrait photos using the periscope zoom lens and Vivo's vintage fill filter. With enough trial and error I may have stumbled across those settings but I'm 75 years old and not as sharp as I used to be. Well done on this review -- I subscribed to your channel -- very insightful.

Wow thanks for this review 👍🏻 Appreciate 👏🏻

0:09 I'm totally flabbergasted over the fact that this Vivo X100 phone can shoot a 10x zoom, crystal clear photo in low light conditions or dark places. 0:09 shooting in dark places in the zoom mode is what has me totally hypnotized. The two Titans of phone makers got to be aware of this splendid zoom capture in low light conditions. 3:28 Xiaomi flat sides and gorgeous Bezel-less screens are splendid to watch. A curve screen does have a certain amount of aesthetic but it's useless to read on and to work with. 8:29 Even at 10x (600mm) it produces jaw dropping, crystal clear details, a quality to mesmerise upon.

hi ben. great review as always. can u please tell me where to get the global version of the vivo x100 pro? thanks

Dayum! amazing! Ben you prob know I make YT vids using Vivo X70 Pro+ (& LOVE it:) but 3 years on looking to upgrade. Could you do a follow-up focused on video, particularly low light? (vs iPhone 15). Also, any word on a x100 Pro+ or will they skip a + gen like the X80's?

Follow-up: Just reading X100 Pro+ may launch as x100 Ultra - "Tipster Digital Chat Station said in a Weibo post that the Vivo X100 Pro+ is expected to feature a 200-megapixel sensor with a 1/1.5-inch periscope telephoto lens. The lens is expected to offer 4.3x optical zoom which is said to provide images with a resolution equivalent to a 10-megapixel periscope lens with up to 10x optical zoom. It is expected to support 200-megapixel digital zoom when used together. Leaks have suggested that the Vivo X100 Pro+ may launch with a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-900 primary rear sensor. The phone may also feature a 50-megapixel Sony IMX589 sensor with an ultra-wide lens and a 50-megapixel IMX758 portrait lens. The report also suggests that the Vivo X100 Pro+ is likely to be unveiled within the first half of 2024. It adds that the model may also launch with the moniker Vivo X100 Ultra." - So I will wait to upgrade (following Ben's coming review, of course;). STL

And again, one of the best reviews with phones that are really good. Thanks, Ben! Maybe the x100pro+ will have a better hardware and software design. I am waiting for the Xiaomi 14 ultra, Vivo x100 pro + and Honor 6 magic pro. I love how the Xiaomi looks and how they process pictures (Vivo kind of adds beauty filters while Xiaomi leaves faces true, right?). Maybe the Xiaomi 14 ultra with a 1" sensor will be the sweet spot? :)

I think it’s a shame that Vivo adds a beauty effect on faces :/ Imo we don’t need this kind of filter, naturalness is the best thing in photography

Thanks for this review that came to me just when I needed it. Yet the next question is: Should we wait for the X100 Plus and/or 14 Ultra?? It just seems there is a lot of good stuff coming up.

WHy is noone talking about the phone breaking bug from the latest update on the chinese model i know atleast 10 fugging people tthat have bricked phones basically because of vivos latest update. no cellular connection and graphical glitches its absolutely rediculous its completely unusable

Those photos are insane

You sold me within the first 2 minutes of this video. Holy crap those photos with the filter was amazing Edit: Your 25x photo does look uncanny. Really excited for this phone with how you showed off all the samples!

I'm having a Vivo NEX 3 and I am so lucky to have the OriginOS, it gives you a different experience indeed.

Best comparison as always thanks, i think need wait for vivo x100 pro plus and xiaomi 14 ultra

Great video and really nice phone. Can you compare this camera with the p60 pro

The only smartphone that could make me leave Samsung (the Galaxy Ultra), would be a Vivo X Pro Plus (with Snapdragon and a selfie camera that shoots in stabilized 4k HDR), but above all, with Origin-OS internationally.

Did I hear it right? You have X100 Pro "global" version which loaded with FunTouchOS. I haven't read anything from Vivo on the global version timeline. That's amazing news to us, been waiting for it.

Really great video as expected. I was wondering when companies would start using AI for the zoom shots, didn't expect it to be so soon. Once you pointed it out, it's hard not to see it. 10:37 looks very AI generated, not sure if I like it. Open up some interesting philosophical questions about photography. Great phone anyway, but the Oppo Find X7 Pro should surpass it in terms of cameras.

Goodness me; those photos look really, really good.As an overall camera system,it seems great, but not the best,as its biggest weakness is in video recording, which also matters to a lot of people.I'm very impressed by what Vivio has achieved with this phone.

Looks great and will be interesting to see how big of an improvement will come with Sony LYT 900 sensor 🤔

Amazing.

Also ben do you have any plans of comparing the shutter speed of phones? I'm absolutely hating the one on my S22 Ultra and just am a huge fan of the iPhone's fast af shutter speed. Would like to see you compare or at least put a snippet of you snapping shots in normal light and night time to see the shutter speed.

❤ I love it

Not joking but this thing can spit out images that are on the same level as a DSLR Camera. I ordered from tradingshenzen with play store preinstalled, had no issued with the google apps or any other "western" standard apps so far.

Impressive

I am not surprised. The X80 Pro was one of the few cameras I found to be a match for my Mate 40 Pro in terms of image quality and texture, but I wasn't that impressed with the tele. Now that I find a need for more, this might just be the phone to do it. I've liked the newer 1//2" tele sensor on the Mate 50, but I am not fond of the smaller main and the incredibly aggressive image sharpening... this Vivo just might be the ticket, looks like they've kept that subtle processing and carried it over from previous generations... pair that with big, beautiful sensors... wow.

The vintage filter is my favourite.

Damn that camera is crazy

i thing VIVO now he has hit the target 👍

I wonder how close x90pp will be to x100p after it gets android 14 software update and will some of the features like smooth lens transition be implemented on x90pp. I'm perfectly happy with my x90pp but gotta say that this new release really impresses me.

Hi and thanks for the excellent video. I own vivo x100 pro and it is the best camera phone ever used (much better than any samsung or iphone) I have a question, I cant find how to trigger the shutter using the volume button? If there is no way to do it, is there any bluetooth trigger you would suggest?

Thoughts on the Ultra version? Will you doing a review of it?

Nice

I really appreciate your professional and detailed reviews!💯 By the way, how much difference is there between the X100 and X100 pro in terms of camera performance? I prefer the X100(S) because of the flat display, but the performance of the camera is what makes me hesitate which one to choose.

Can't wait to see a camera comparison of the S23 Ultra vs the X100.

It must be a tough call for manufacturers: add a style/personality/filter to the photos to make them look great (as Vivo has done here), or make them look as realistic as possible. There are some phones that produce very realistic shots (good colours, exposure etc), but I would prefer the stylised Vivo x100 pro shots all day long.
