A few days ago, Vivo launched its first flagship in Europe since it hitten the Western European market: the Vivo X60 Pro. Despite it is not the most advanced variant from the X60 series, it boasts a complete specs sheet with stunning specifications. Further, it carries a non-excessive price tag. This is exactly the reason why we decided to compare it to the latest flagship killers from Vivo’s Chinese rivals. If you need a phone priced under €800, you have two other amazing options besides the Vivo X60 Pro in the European market: Xiaomi Mi 11i and OnePlus 9. Let’s compare their specifications.

Design

The Vivo X60 Pro is the most beautiful handset for three reasons: it is thinner than its opponents, it is lighter and it has a curved edge-to-edge display. With the OnePlus 9 and the Xiaomi Mi 11i, you get a flat display and thicker bodies, as well as thicker bezels around the panel. But you should consider that the Xiaomi Mi 11i has the IP53 certification, so it offers some kind of protection against dust and water (it is splash resistant, but you can not put it underwater without it damages).

 

Display

The displays of the Vivo X60 Pro, OnePlus 9, and Xiaomi Mi 11i are more or less at the same level. They are all AMOLED panels with a Full HD+ resolution, the HDR10+ certification, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and very high brightness. Not the most advanced displays in the smartphone world, but still amazing panels which will not disappoint you. The Xiaomi Mi 11i has a wider 6.67-inch diagonal, while Vivo X60 Pro and OnePlus 9 are more compact. Note that Vivo X60 Pro and OnePlus 9 have an in-display fingerprint reader, while Xiaomi Mi 11i has a side-mounted one which is actually less comfortable.

 

Hardware/Software

Given that the Vivo X60 Pro is powered by a weaker chipset, the battle is between Xiaomi Mi 11i and the OnePlus 9. They are fueled by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, but the most advanced variant of the OnePlus 9 is more powerful because it has more RAM: 12 GB against the 8 GB offered by the Xiaomi Mi 11i. All these phones run Android 11 out of the box with different customized user interfaces.

 

Camera

The most convincing camera department belongs to the Vivo X60 Pro. It has a main sensor with a very bright f/1.5 aperture and gimbal stabilization, a telephoto sensor with 2x optical zoom, and a 13 MP ultrawide sensor. OnePlus 9 has a better ultrawide camera than X60 Pro, but it lacks a telephoto sensor and its main camera is actually inferior too. The Xiaomi Mi 11i has a stunning 108 MP main camera with 8K video recording, but unfortunately, its secondary sensors are pretty bad for a flagship.

 

Battery

Vivo X60 Pro is thinner and lighter, but it has a smaller battery and it loses the battery life comparison. The Xiaomi Mi 11i and the OnePlus 9 both come with a 4500 mAh battery, but the latter supports faster wired charging (65W) and wireless charging, while Xiaomi Mi 11i supports 33W fast charging and lacks wireless charging. OnePlus 9 is the king of batteries.

 

Vivo X60 Pro Global vs Xiaomi Mi 11i vs OnePlus 9: Price

You can grab a unit of the OnePlus 9 for less than €700/$853, Xiaomi Mi 11i is the cheapest with a €649/$791 price tag, and Vivo X60 Pro is priced at €799/$975. The Vivo X60 Pro looks like the most premium device due to its beautiful design and amazing camera, but for average users, the OnePlus 9 makes more sense with the actual prices due to its bigger battery, wireless charging, better chipset.
