I'm eager to see more of this but cheaper. 999 for FunTouch OS, no thanks, it's my preference and I liked Oppo in the past.

At least a bit cheaper than the Xiaomi 14 for example but the same as the Oppo Find x7 which was better. This year though it's basically taking the Samsung route and rehashing the same phone. No camera upgrades really. The periscope is debatable as last year's OV64b was better for longer zoom ranges. Vivo has been basically using more or less the same main camera since the x80. The battery was the only real upgrade but that's basically gone for Europe. The only thing is all the Chinese brands have basically done the same. Just bumped the battery and given a new chip in their standard model flagship. Xiaomi 15 has basically the same cameras (just swapping the Jn1 telephoto for a jn5 which makes little difference as they are the same size and actual performance is also similar). Oppo downgraded the main camera in the find x8 and swapped the OV64b for the LYT600 and Oneplus cameras are basically the same apart from the same swap of the OV64b for the LYT600). Hardware wise I think there's no doubt that the Oneplus 13 has the best hardware for the price among all these similarly priced (based on official Chinese pricing anyway). Of course though a different picture can emerge in different countries when there are various deals available. The x200 is still a good phone and I think if a blind test was done for anything up to 3x then it would hold its own against the pro and probably even beat it for zoom at these ranges. The only real reason for the hype about the pro cameras is the telephoto. It's actually arguable slightly behind the x100pro for the main camera and fox hybrid zoom at 2x and 3x

        Who actually buys this? Like seriously, the base X series phones are genuinely terrible value phones and have been this way for a little while now. I don't see any reason to go for this instead of its competitors or you can just, yk, save some money and get the V40 Pro instead.

So it's more than important to have an LPTO for me.

              Anonymous, 26 Jan 2025the oil painting in samsung especially in low light zoom lo... moreLooks natural or unnatural with Samsungs?

                just saw a comfrontation between phones on youtube and on the antutu benchmark the phone scored really good, it had a good score of 2 500 000, but after that test they did an geekbench one and the phone throttled, the score was dissapointingly low, no where near the x elite. Tho oppo x8 pro with the same dimensity 9400 had a single core score of 2700 and the x elite on oneplus 13 had 2800, the oppo had multiscore 8400 the oneplus was 8900, meanwhile the vivo x200 pro was 1300 single and 6100 multiscore, like what is that it's a flagship phone from 2025.

                  why gsmarena team has dropped to add most useful photo comparison links for all new flagship phones in their review and specification sections ....... some times i think that cheap handsets like motorola , realme and vivo are making great and better camera phones in comparison to samsung ,,,,,,, thats what gsmarena is trying to hide from the world..

                    Anonymous, 25 Jan 2025To be replaced by 200s before April. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣There were some rumors around saying that there might not be an X200s/X200s Pro. But again, just rumors

                      Why couldn't they use the same front facing camera as the V40 with AF? The X200 is the flagship, but having one lesser camera than the mid-range is highly annoying.

It probably is European version that is different alltogether!

                                  notafanboy, 25 Jan 2025It's a good thing Vivo provides something called "... moreAND Vivo has basically the best natural mode out rn with the Zeiss Natural preset, years of tweaking has made it one of the best modes out there if not the absolute best.

                                    Good phone but woefully inadequate for the price. If it were compact OR had an 8 Elite, i'd have understood, it's neither. At best this is worth 800 euros.

                                      That awkward when you realise even the base variant of Vivo flagship is better in most of the areas as compared to galaxy 24/25 ultra. Unreal downfall for shamlessung
