Vivo has finally unveiled the X100 series, which consists of just the X100 and X100 Pro for now. Fundamentally, the pair rely on the same hardware, including a Dimensity 9300 chipset that MediaTek unveiled earlier this month. Vivo also equips both handsets with LTPO AMOLED displays, which measure 6.78-inches across, output at 1,260 x 2,800 pixels, deliver 120 Hz refresh rates and peak at 3,000 nits like the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro.
Vivo includes identical 32 MP front-facing and 50 MP ultra-wide-angle cameras too, with the latter offering a 119˚ FOV with a 15 mm equivalent focal length across a 1/2.76-inch sensor. Moreover, the pair complement their flagship chipsets with LPDDR5T RAM and UFS 4.0 flash storage, the former a first for smartphones and a RAM type that boasts 9.6 Gbps peak transfer speeds. However, the X100 and X100 Pro differ in the following areas:
