Vivo X100 Ultra vs Vivo X90 Pro Plus: A Head-to-Head Comparison

Rajesh Regmi — Wed, 15 May 2024 13:56:02 +0000

Vivo‘s X-series has consistently pushed the boundaries of smartphone photography. Last year, the company’s X90 line, especially the X90 Pro Plus impressed with its innovative camera system. Building on this success, Vivo introduced the X100 series this year.

While the Pro Plus was last year’s flagship, Vivo decided to take it up a notch with the introduction of the Ultra model in 2024, the Vivo X100 Ultra.

With this in mind, we wanted to compare last year’s flagship with this year’s. So here’s a deep dive into their specs, features, and, of course, camera capabilities.

Display and Display

Both phones have near-identical 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED displays with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1440 x 3200 resolution. However, the X100 Ultra edges out the X90 Pro Plus with a slightly higher peak brightness of 3000 nits compared to 1800 nits.

In terms of everyday use, the difference in brightness might be negligible. But for those who prioritize using their phone outdoors in bright sunlight, the X100 Ultra might offer a slightly better viewing experience.

Design-wise, there’s not much difference between the two. Both sport a sizable circular camera island on the back and a punch-hole cutout on the front. Additionally, both are IP-rated for protection against dust and water. However, the X100 Ultra boasts a superior IP69 rating, while the X90 Pro Plus has an IP68 rating. Here’s a breakdown of the difference:

IP68: It signifies that the phone can withstand dust ingress and is protected against continuous immersion in water up to 1.5 meters deep for 30 minutes.
IP69: It is a more rigorous rating, indicating the phone can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature water jets. This level of protection is beneficial for users who work in harsh environments or those who frequently expose their phones to water streams.

Performance

The X100 Ultra is powered by the newer Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, whereas the X90 Pro Plus features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. While the newer chip offers some performance improvements, real-world usage between the two might be difficult to distinguish for most users.

Both processors are top-of-the-line and will handle demanding tasks with ease. Memory options include up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage for the X90 Pro whereas the X100 Ultra comes in up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. They boot on Origin OS 4 based on Android 14.

Camera

The camera systems are where these phones see the biggest differences. The X100 Ultra takes a more specialized approach with a triple-lens setup:

50MP main sensor with gimbal OIS
200MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.7x optical zoom
50MP ultrawide sensor

The X90 Pro Plus opts for a quad-lens setup with more versatility:

50.3MP main sensor
64MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom
50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom
48MP ultrawide sensor

The X100 Ultra boasts a massive 200MP periscope telephoto lens that should offer superior zoom capabilities. However, the megapixel count isn’t everything, and image quality will depend on factors like image processing, and software.

The X90 Pro Plus offers a dedicated 2x optical zoom lens, which some users might find more practical than relying solely on digital zoom.

For casual photographers, the X90 Pro Plus might offer more well-rounded camera functionality. But for those who prioritize extreme zoom capabilities, the X100 Ultra could be the better choice.

Battery

The X100 Ultra packs a larger 5500mAh battery compared to the X90 Pro Plus’s 4700mAh battery. While both support fast wired charging, the X90 Pro Plus has a slight edge with its 100W charging compared to the X100 Ultra’s 80W. However, the larger battery of the X100 Ultra might lead to longer battery life.

Other Features

Both phones offer similar features like an under-display fingerprint sensor, stereo speakers, and no expandable storage. The X100 Ultra differentiates itself with support for emergency SOS via satellite feature, but that’s only available on the 1TB model.

Verdict

The Vivo X100 Ultra is the clear winner for those seeking the absolute best in terms of performance, camera zoom capabilities, battery life, and cutting-edge features. However, this likely comes at a premium price.

The Vivo X90 Pro Plus remains a compelling choice, offering excellent overall performance, a versatile quad-camera system, and fast charging at a potentially more attractive price point.

Ultimately, the best phone for you depends on your priorities and budget. If you prioritize zoom photography, the latest processor, and a feature-packed experience, the X100 Ultra is the way to go. If you value a strong all-rounder at a potentially better value, the X90 Pro Plus is a solid option.

Upcoming Smartphones: Vivo X90 Series, Oppo Reno 9 Series, and More

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Sat, 19 Nov 2022 09:40:26 +0000

There weren’t many smartphone launches for about a month. This is going to change in the next few days. Three are going to be three prominent events next week.

Chinese major brands Vivo, Honor, and Oppo have scheduled press conferences for the next week. They have confirmed to announce multiple phones at these events.

These products will be made official in China. They are expected to make their way to other markets later.

Let’s take a look at these handsets one by one.

Upcoming Smartphones Next Week

Vivo X90 Series

The Vivo X90 series launch event is scheduled for November 22 (Tuesday). It will begin at 7 PM GMT+8 and will be live-streamed on popular Chinese video streaming platforms and social media.

The lineup is expected to include three models, namely Vivo X90, Vivo X90 Pro, and Vivo X90 Pro Plus. The former two are said to be powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9200 SoC, while the latter will house a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 underneath it.

All three phones are expected to come with a dedicated Vivo V2 ISP chip. Though they will have different camera setups, all of them will feature Zeiss T* coating lenses and software Zeiss image processing.

The Vivo X90 series is said to boot OriginOS 3 based on Android 13 and will carry support for 120W fast wired charging.

Honor’s launch conference is planned for November 23 (Wednesday). It will start at 2:30 PM GMT+8. The event will be live-streamed on Chinese social media and video streaming platforms.

Vivo X90 series confirmed to feature Sony IMX758 sensor, Dimensity 9200 chipset

Sudhanshu — Wed, 16 Nov 2022 06:47:55 +0000

On November 22, Vivo will launch the X90 series in China, which is anticipated to include three models: vanilla, Pro, and Pro+. While the vanilla and Pro variants are officially confirmed to be powered by the Dimensity 9200 SoC, the Vivo X90 Pro+ is expected to use the recently unveiled Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.

The brand also confirms that a 50MP Sony IMX758 camera will also be included in the X90 series. Furthermore, the image posted by Vivo, which bears the caption “two independent portrait lenses go beyond,” depicts the back of an X90 smartphone with four cameras, the top-right camera likely being a periscope unit. The smartphone’s name has not been revealed, but it is most likely the X90 Pro+. Some camera specs are printed on the right side of the camera island below the LED flash.

Having said that, all the devices in the series will include T* coating and the ZEISS algorithm. The X90 series will include the V2 chip, according to Vivo. So far, rumors suggest that the Vivo X90 series will feature a 50MP Sony IMX989 Wide-Angle lens, a 48MP Sony IMX598 Ultra Wide-Angle lens, a 50MP IMX758 Depth lens, and a 64MP OmniVision OV64B Telephoto lens.

The display is expected to be a 6.78-inch Samsung AMOLED E6 curved panel that will support a 2K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 1440Hz high-frequency dimming. The device might feature up to 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage and up to 12GB of LPDDR5x RAM. A 4,700mAh battery that supports 80W fast charging could be included in the device.

Vivo X90, X90 Pro+ Official Renders Emerge to Reveal Color Variants

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Tue, 15 Nov 2022 01:45:07 +0000

Vivo is all set to launch the Vivo X90 series of smartphones on Nov. 22 in China. The Vivo X90, X90 Pro, and X90 Pro+ are among the three phones in the lineup. The company has already released a couple of renders to showcase the design of the X90 series. However, it has not released each of the renders for the above-mentioned smartphones. 91mobiles has published the leaked official renders of the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro+ to reveal their designs and color variants.

Vivo X90

On the front, the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro+ have an identical look as they feature a curved-edge OLED display with curved edges and a centrally positioned punch-hole. On the back, the X90 and X90 Pro+ can be seen flaunting a round-shaped camera module housing a quad-camera setup.

Vivo X90

The only major difference in terms of design between the two is that the X90 Pro has a smaller camera module as compared to the Pro+ variant. The red variants of both smartphones seem to feature a leather back. Below the camera module, there is a horizontal strip with “Xtreme Imagination” and “Vivo | Zeiss co-engineered” texts.

Vivo X90 Pro Plus

The black and blue variants of the X90 and X90 Pro+ have a matte look. It appears that both phones could be fitted with a glass back. The right edge of both devices has a power button and a volume rocker.

Vivo X90 Pro Plus

Unfortunately, there are no images of the Vivo X90 Pro model. In all likelihood, the X90 Pro could sport a similar design as the X90 and X90 Pro+. As can be seen in the above renders, the overall design of the X90 series is not too different from the Vivo X80 lineup, which debuted earlier this year. Reports have claimed that the X90 and X90 Pro will have the Dimensity 9200 chipset, whereas the X90 Pro+ will get the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.

Vivo X90 Series, TWS 3 Launch Date Confirmed, X90, X90 Pro Could be First Dimensity 9200 to Debut

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 07:37:58 +0000

Vivo released an official confirmation earlier today through its Weibo page that the Vivo X90 series launch event will be held at 7:00 pm (local time) on Nov. 22. It appears that the X90 models will be the first to feature the recently unveiled Dimensity 9200 chipset.

Several reports have claimed that the X90 lineup consists of three models, such as the Vivo X90, X90 Pro, and X90 Pro Plus. The Pro+ model is tipped to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, which is expected to launch this week. The X90 and X90 Pro are most likely to feature the Dimensity 9200 chipset, which went official last week.

Vivo X90 models

According to a recent report, the Vivo X90 will come in four configurations, such as 8GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB. It will be available in black, blue, and red colors. The X90 Pro will be arriving in three options: 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB.

The X90 Pro+ is expected to be available in two configurations: 12GB + 256GB and 12GB + 512GB storage. Reports have claimed that the lineup will be equipped with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. Both Pro models will arrive in red and black colors.

Vivo TWS 3

A recent report said that there will be both a standard model and a Pro model of the Vivo TWS 3. At present, it is unclear how both devices differ from each other. Vivo has confirmed that the TWS 3 will debut as the world’s first true Hi-Fi wireless earbuds. Some of the features that the TWS 3 series will offer include ultra-wideband noise cancellation, Bluetooth 5.3, dual device connection, smart wear detection, 3D binaural recording, and more.

Vivo X90, X90 Pro, X90 Pro+ Configurations, Color Variants Leaked Before Launch

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 01:00:00 +0000

Vivo is likely to announce the Vivo X90 series on Nov. 22 in China. The lineup is likely to include three models: the Vivo X90, the X90 Pro, and the X90 Pro+. A new leak, courtesy of Pricebaba, has revealed the memory configurations and color variants of the X90 series.

Vivo X90 Series May Feature Dimensity 9200, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Chipsets

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Wed, 09 Nov 2022 09:10:37 +0000

Almost all the leading Android OEMs are gearing up to launch new flagship smartphones. Vivo is no different as it is set to debut the Vivo X90 series.

We have been hearing about the upcoming X90 series for the last few days. Yesterday, the company may have hinted at the chipset powering these phones.

MediaTek unveiled the Dimensity 9200 SoC yesterday. It is the Taiwanese chipmaker’s latest premium mobile chipset.

Soon after the announcement, Vivo officially disclosed that it will release a smartphone housing this chip. Unfortunately, the brand did not reveal the name of the device.

Whylab, a popular Chinese tech media, says that the Dimenisty 9200 chipset could power the forthcoming Vivo X90 and Vivo X90 Pro. In the same Weibo post, it also notes that the Vivo X90 Pro and Vivo X90 Pro Plus may feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip.

This means the Vivo X90 Pro could be available in both Dimensity and Snapdragon variants. The information provided by Whylab could be mostly true as the outlet is known for reliable leaks.

Aside from this, a live image leak from yesterday revealed that the Vivo X90 Pro+ will be available in red color with a leather finish. WhyLab has also shared what seems to be an official teaser of the design (the picture attached above) along with the aforementioned chipset details.

We are expecting more leaks on the Vivo X90 series in the coming days. Perhaps, Vivo may also start teasing the features officially.

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Tue, 08 Nov 2022 05:02:32 +0000

Several reports have said that the Vivo X90 series will be debuting soon in China. On Weibo, people are sharing a picture that seems to be of the Vivo X90 Pro+.

Alleged Vivo X90 Pro+ live shot

The leaked image does not show the front side of the Vivo X90 Pro+. It is likely that the device will be fitted with a curved-edge AMOLED panel with a centrally positioned punch-hole on the front. The red-colored back panel has a golden metallic strip placed below the round-shaped camera module. The LED flash unit and ZEISS logo can be seen towards the right of the phone’s back.

Vivo X90 Pro+schematic

The leaked schematic by DCS reveals that the camera module houses three regular cameras, a periscope zoom lens, and a microphone. Previous reports have claimed that the device will be equipped with a 1-inch Sony IMX989 50-megapixel primary camera. It will be assisted by a 48-megapixel Sony IMX598 ultra-wide lens, a 50-megapixel Sony IMX578 portrait lens, and a 64-megapixel OmniVision OV64B periscope zoom camera.

The device is said to be equipped with the forthcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, up to 12 GB of LPDDR5x RAM, and up to 512 GB of UFS 4.0. It is likely to house a 4,700mAh battery, which will offer 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.

On the front, it is expected to sport a 6.78-inch E6 AMOLED panel. The screen is expected to produce a 2K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and 1440Hz PWM dimming. The device may come equipped with a 32-megapixel front camera.

Mysterious Vivo V2241A phone bags 3C certification

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Wed, 02 Nov 2022 02:00:00 +0000

Vivo and its sub-brand iQOO are reportedly planning to launch multiple devices, such as the Vivo X90 series, iQOO 11 series, and iQOO Neo 7 SE smartphone, in November and December. A new Vivo smartphone with model number V2241A has been approved by China’s 3C authority. In all likelihood, it could be one of the aforementioned Vivo or iQOO smartphones.

As can be seen in the image below, the Vivo phone that has been approved by the 3C authority has the V2241A model number (via. TechGoing). To recall, the 3C regulatory body had approved the Vivo V2238A phone the previous week. Both phones have been spotted with a 120W fast charger. Hence, it is not easy to speculate on the final moniker of both devices.

According to a recent report, the Vivo X90 Pro and X90 Pro+ heading to China have V2242A and V2227A model numbers, respectively. The model number of the vanilla Vivo X90 is yet to be revealed.

The iQOO 11 and iQOO 11 Pro have V2243A and V2254A model numbers. However, the model number of the iQOO Neo 7 SE are not known yet. Interestingly, the Vivo X90 as well as the Neo 7 SE are expected to support 120W fast charging.

Hence, it appears that the V2241A and V2238A could be associated with the Vivo X90 and iQOO Neo 7 SE or vice-versa. Except for these two models, none of the above-mentioned models has received 3C certification. Now that the V2241A and V2238A are 3C approved, both phones are expected to appear on the TENAA certification platform with their key specifications in the next few days.
