The cons of this phone are its stereo speakers and only 3 years of software updates. Coming from an iPhone, speakers are underwhelming. The autofocus and macro of the phone is heavenly. Vivo photo processing is on another level, best in the business.
Absolutely LOVE mine. The telephoto lens is just INSANE. The macro shots and close focusing distance ability of the lens too is just incredible. I have plenty shots already that actually rival shots taken on my A7C. Processing is normally very impressive as well.
@@freezingxspeediest it was around £900 from Wonda Mobile in China, global version, I've imported a lot of phones from them and they are really reliable. Express shipping only took 3 days to the UK.
Spot on! I have been using this as my daily driver since the end of November, in the mean time I have switched to S24U, 15 Pro Max, Oppo X7 Ultra, Xiaomi 14 ultra, Magic 6 Pro, but everysingle time I came back to the X100 pro. I mean I love this device so much, that I got 3 of them; orange, black and blue! 😊😅
lol 3 of them.. Am considering this phone, only 1 though! Only wished it was curved on all sides, swiping from the bottom feels smooth (no edge (like from screenprotector)?
Portrait mode with vintage filter is seriously good. Great with almost any subject, especially with people photos. I've ended up using it way more than my Fuji X-T20. And the supermacro mode with texture filter. Wow. Amazing product photography.
I forgot to say the china version has loads of AI features that are pretty fun, including an anime character creator which spurt fans would probably enjoy.
@@TedThomasTT plus OriginOS is much smoother than any other android skins plus the night mode is the best. Only cons for me are sometimes I got missed notifications. I need to open the app to be able to get the notifs like Instagram. Plus the speaker quality is just average and mic is terrible plus the beautification of people in the camera, even though I turned off the beautification. I'm using it alongside with my s24 ultra.
Used it , loved it. Could do with a cleaner UI for a Flagship. Great value for money phone , particularly in countries where iPhones, pixels and Galaxy S series phones cost a lot more than the US.
I have watched some reviews about the Vivo x100Pro, It has a really great battery life and fantastic camera system. I would prefer this over the Xiaomi 14 ultra
As a vivo fold user here in the USA it did take some tweaking but I have managed to get the notifications fixed and seems to work very well with AT&T network without any issues. Google apps install was easy and the phone is snappy. Honestly can’t complain and the phones hardware feels miles ahead of the Samsung folds.
Hopefully the Vivi Fold3 pro is announced globally. 236grams, 5700mah battery, Snapdragon 8 gen3 foldable phone. It all looks great on paper and is currently china only.
I wanted a Vivo long time ago unfortunately you could. n't get one in Swaziland around 2010, 2012. So Xiaomi came in and got us big time and we've been upgrading, mores because of the price affordability and mid range capacities. At $900 you can build a 1 bedroom house in my country so only those who earn really well will afford this great tech. We can afford &400-$35- phones. But due to poverty and joblessness a few enjoy these luxurious gadgets.
Uncle Spurt, when X Fold 3 and 3 Pro? The 3 has an SD 8Gen3 and has a way more affordable price than the typical cost of foldables at launch, while the 3 Pro has an 8gen3 and even in its maxed-out storage configuration costs less than a Z Fold 5... all configurations for both variants have 16gb of ram.
Have it since december. Its actually phenomal on a daily basis on the camera side. Especially the telephoto lense is insane. As an apple user i wasnt satisfied with the 15 pro max. Speakers and selfie cam arent that good but everything else is top notch. Cant go back to the 15 pro max with the potato camera 😁 The 5x on the iPhone is super trash and last last last gen.
Awesome review Spurt, can you review the Oppo find x7 ultra next? Ive imported one from wonda mobile and once set up properly its a real s24 ultra killer for 450 pounds cheaper!! Cheers!!
Phone camera is very limited, baiscally 90% software and 10% hardware. That's why google does magic photos even in budget phone, pixel a series. Nevertheless, good hardware is good hardware, 1 inch sensor IMX989+ 4.3x zoom camera OV64B is pretty much the best in the game
That phone has the best macro capability ever and you didn't mention it, probably you don't know about it. How did you get to 1 million subs with reviews like that? :)
Waiting for phones like these alongside the Oppo find x7 and Xioami 14 to hit the usa so we have true flagship choices. OnePlus is a good start but i wouls love to see more here.
Been ogling this beastie for months... and even with the Xiaomi 14 Ultra launch... the cameras on this still seem like a cut above the rest except when you're going for those megazoom shots.
I am using x100pro I tried some night shots while the moon was rising, it was a very good improvement from pixel 6A ..I realized how hard it's to progress in the smartphone industry...by the way how did you know the manufacturer of those camera lens ? Other reviews bring a different information..can share me the source please? 🎉
is it true that after some system updates, the latest is 2024 update the camera quality of vivo x100 pro its not as good as used to be, they say they downgraded the camera quality, , the edging was bad etc. is that possible to downgrade the camera quality with a software update? Any vivo x100 pro experiencing the same problem ?
Hello Mr Tech Spurt,sorry for bothering you, I have a question: with the new software update for example Funtouch Os 12,13 or 14 of the Vivo X60 series, green vertical stripes appear on the screen that cannot be removed, or do those green stripes also appear on the screens of other mobile phones? if so, how can you remove them? This video test is very cool from a really great flagship premium phone, thank you in advance for your answer, many nice successful jobs in good health, greetings from Romania!
@@bozhao1936 thank you very much for your answer. If I understand correctly, the problem is with the hardware of the screen, so I should take it to a phone shop to have the screen replaced? But replacing the screen can be expensive, thanks for the help Mr.
Dimensity 9300 deserves better. A better phone with actually proper cooling and not only camera focused, this chipset has much more potential than what people credit it for, only needs proper cooling.
@@TechSpurt would be really interesting to see on more gaming oriented phones too, which can chunk the massive vapour cooling stuff. Because of those behemoth performance cores this thing tends to heat up quite a lot
Does the Vivo X100 Pro have these features as the Iphone has: Extracting an object from the background of a photo or video on the iPhone In the Photos app, you can extract the object of a photo or video frame from the background and then copy or share it in other documents and apps.
Say, can you comment on the situation with notifications? I hear you have to turn off battery optimisations for each app you want to be able to deliver you notifications (ie. SMS app, Facebook Messenger etc.) and still it will fail to deliver them after some time?
Vivo x100 pro is definitely a best phone I've ever use. And for those AI features u need to but china version to get all that good stuffs.😢 They have own ai assistant, other extra functions for that.😢😢😢 Sadly we cant get those features for global ver, unless they give those things to global ver
You should take a look at the blue version of this phone, it looks beautiful. I am guessing this boring Grey black monstrosity was simply to keep the business executive types happy?
Hello Chris, just a medical advice. I see you have a raised enlarged veins in between your right ear and eyebrow, If you have associated headache and Jaw pain while eating or blurry vision. It's advisable to check for a condition called Gaint Cell Arthritis and Blood pressure. If you don't have any symptoms don't worry about it might be normal variations.
The cons of this phone are its stereo speakers and only 3 years of software updates. Coming from an iPhone, speakers are underwhelming. The autofocus and macro of the phone is heavenly. Vivo photo processing is on another level, best in the business.
the speakers have underwhelming low end but the distortion is better than iphones and the midrange and high end is also better
And the curved display
do people actually use their phone speakers?
3 years of software upgrades is more than enough most people upgrade every 2 years. I upgrade every year
Agree on above, experienced the same issue with speaker. Excellent photo processing especially in HDR.
Absolutely LOVE mine. The telephoto lens is just INSANE. The macro shots and close focusing distance ability of the lens too is just incredible. I have plenty shots already that actually rival shots taken on my A7C. Processing is normally very impressive as well.

I got absolutely hammered today, and started talking "shenanigans" about my X100 Pro! Great Job mate! Keep it... UP!
I wonder if that big generic camera design on phones right now helps for a better camera quality🤔
Phone camera is very limited, baiscally 90% software and 10% hardware.

Nevertheless, good hardware is good hardware,
1 inch sensor IMX989+ 4.3x zoom camera OV64B is pretty much the best in the game
Fake stuff... Just for design and make people thing this is whaou quality. I am sure they can reduce by half and keep space for captors
What about the missing band 20? Does that actually effect it's calling capability in the UK. What's it like as, you know, a phone?
Yes new video 🔥
