Take that, Apple and Samsung: Exceptional Android juggernaut with 1-inch camera sensor goes official،
Price and release date
The Vivo X100 Pro will hit the Chinese market later this month. As usual, it could arrive on the global market but at a later date, just like its predecessor.
In terms of pricing, it’s a bit misleading to directly translate local Chinese prices into US dollars and call it a day, as prices in China are still much lower than the potential international prices the phone may advertise.
That said, here are the Vivo X100 Pro prices and how much they cost in USD.
Vivo X100 Pro Version | Price |
---|---|
12 GB + 256 GB | 4,999 CNY (~$700) |
16 GB + 256 GB | 5,299 CNY (~$726) |
16 GB + 512 GB | 5,499 CNY (~$800) |
16 GB + 1 TB | 5,999 CNY (~$822) |
Camera
Vivo and photography legend Zeiss have done it again: another spectacular camera phone is vying for your attention, boasting impressive hardware and a comprehensive set of software features that make it a versatile phone!
The most interesting part of a modern smartphone, its telephoto lens, is not left out on the Vivo X100 Pro. The Zeiss-certified Vario-APO-Sonar camera uses a so-called floating design that allows up to 96% more light to reach the sensor.
Hardware and specifications
The Dimensity 9300 takes care of performance, but what’s more intriguing here is the super-fast LPDDR5T memory available on the most expensive version of the phone. Announced by SK Hynix in August, LPDDR5T is approximately 12% faster than LPDDR5X. Paired with fast UFS4.0 storage, this combo should deliver excellent read and write speeds.
With a dual battery consisting of two 2,700 mAh cells (5,400 mAh total), the Vivo X100 Pro also supports 100W super-fast wired and 50W wireless charging, which should top up its battery in no time.
