Been using it for a week, will start with cons:
- There is ton of bloat. People saying otherwise have a different perspective on bloat. There's 8ish apps most people will never use, for example there's a 'simple mode' for aged/disabled people which you cant uninstall or even disable. There is an app thats just a shortcut to vivo.com; will never need it, cannot uninstall or disable.
- The screen feels really rough.. I dunno what it is, but the physical screen itself feels really rough to operate. Really kills the feeling of the phone. I recently switched to 120hz at all times, unne kill to the battery but things feel a bit smoother. Still figuring out where this issue comes from.
- Really hate the huge front camera especially after seeing how its not that mindblowing. There are also bezels around it, which makes the screen feel so eww.
- Funtouch still has a loot of UI customisations that are disabled. Hard to believe Samsung gives more custom settings than funtouch.
Pros:
- Camera, duh. Best Ive ever used!
- Screen looks really nice and I love the curved edges.
- The back is slippery, sure, but I can handle it really well even with small hands. Havent used cover in the entire week. The camera module interestingly helps quite a bit holding it with one hand, with the finger getting support from it.
- Hasnt hanged till now, though I dont really do any gaming or processor intensive work.
If you want a basically dslr in a smartphone, cop it without doubts. If you want aesthetics, stay away :)

I think the issue with the photo details - often lacking, is the ultra shallow depth of field. What you'd like to capture can easily be out of focus if the subject is near (since the whole body is not necessarily in focus - not to mention multiple subjects).
On the other hand, if you manage to correctly set the focus, the results are often nothing short of spectacular.

And it doesn't seem to do that in normal shooting mode with good light. Lots of detail preserved.

proUser, 11 Mar 2024Those who already bought phone, please let me know
1) do... moreFuntouch has been a very positive surprise so far.
I'm coming from Pixel 6, appreciate the pure and fast Android experience - and Funtouch is very similar - very fast and clean.
Its almost like a Google One phone or a Pixel...

Using this device for week
below are observations
Good#
1) Good display
2) Best camera
3) Fast charging
4) Battery all day long
#Bad
1) Very slippery (weak ergonomics)
2) Battery life could be improved
3) OS is not so good compare to samsung/oneplus
4) Drain more battery using camera/video than other devices
#Many people complains it overheats, but I didn't get that, yes it got warm using 10-15min, temperature reaches 44c, but considering summer time in India, it is ok because outside temp also going 40+. Thermals are ok
#Its not throttling like oneplus (even it has Snapdragon 8G3) - so good point
#yes it takes little more time to cool
#overall - very good device, use with case *8/10 [ specially for camera overall exp is best]

proUser, 11 Mar 2024Those who already bought phone, please let me know 1) do... moreWell, I have the Chinese Version. It doesn't overheat. The battery is a beast, sometimes to go from 100 percent to 99 percent it takes like one hour of usage, and I am not even joking. I am a heavy user and it lasts me all day. Performance is amazing, but there are some bugs and things that bother me, such as Instagram app crashing or notifications not showing up. I believe this happens only to me because I have the Chinese version and I live in Europe. I can't say anything about the operating system since I am using OriginOs. Overall, I wouldn't change this phone.

Those who already bought phone, please let me know
1) does it overheats? e.g. 4k video shoot around 10-15min
2) I am not gamer, so hope battery atleast give 6hr SoT
3) battery drain / jitter or any performance issues???
4) Hope funtouch os gives good experience
Heard from many that this device heats too much, so asking this here. if it heats, I probably move to OnePlus 12 or other

proUser, 04 Mar 2024Ultimate flagship of the 2024.
Vivo only needs below cha... more
1.lots of people prefer the more powerful mediatek also, after using the x100 pro I'm now one of them, the phone blasts through anything I throw at it
2.bloatware never had any on my global version
3.again never had it on my global version
4.i agree if beautify is off it should mean OFF
5. Sound could be louder
6. There are stronger glass out there than gorilla your just jumping with what's mainstream like gorilla glass snapdragon... Broaden your horizon you'll see more
7. I like the curve I've NOT once had any issues or accidentally touches
My only two gripes with vivo is if beautify is off I don't want any smoothing of the skin at all
And I want them to make the phones look more premium, my mi 11 ultra looks more premium with its ceramic back and little screen on the back
And reduce the size of the selfie camera cutout
Other than that the x100 pro is vivos Samsung galaxy s2, a phone that unexpectedly took the world by storm, they can now either build upon this and take on people's criticsm like build quality etc and smash it out of the park with the x200 pro or stagnate and not take the opportunity that's now been awarded to them to battle xiaomi & and Samsung for top spot

Xytanox, 06 Mar 2024International version (Funtouch OS) - Doesn't have 8k/... moreInternational version (Funtouch OS) - It does have 8k/30fps on Rear Camera..maybe you need to check again

International version (Funtouch OS) - Doesn't have 8k/30fps on Rear Camera. Got updated Front Camera from 1080p to 4k/60fps.
Chinese version (Origin OS) - Able to do video 8k/30fps on Rear Camera and also got build it 4k/60fps on Front Camera (without any update).
Very much diffrent in price. Chinese is cheaper (around ~850-950$), which International is more expensive (around ~1150-1250$). Probably because of European taxes.

GeoPost, 05 Mar 2024Well said. Moreover it is estimated to cost 1200 euros! Why... more927-929 euros 16GB RAM and 1TB ROM. How much storage/memory on iPhone for 1200 euros? 256Gb only. I understand if someone is Apple fan.
