Third-party reviews

What we like about vivo X100S Pro (16GB + 1TB)

  • Outstanding and versatile camera system that produces "DSLR-like" quality photos, especially for portraits and night shots.
  • Extremely fast and smooth performance in both everyday use and demanding tasks like gaming, thanks to the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor.
  • Excellent battery life, often lasting a full day even for heavy users, with some users reporting up to two days of use.
  • Very fast 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging support that can fully charge the large 5400mAh battery quickly.
  • High-quality, bright 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 3000 nits peak brightness, providing vibrant and smooth visuals.
  • Premium build quality with IP68 durability and appealing design options like vegan leather or glass backs.
  • Global ROM version includes Google services and features like eSim support.
  • Good signal reception, even in some areas without specific network bands like band 20.

What we don't like about vivo X100S Pro (16GB + 1TB)

  • The software (Funtouch OS) feels dated and less refined compared to competitors like Samsung's One UI or Google's Pixel experience, lacking some innovative AI features.
  • Issues with delayed or missed notifications on some ROM versions, requiring extensive manual configuration.
  • Video recording capabilities are considered limited, with some users noting blurry zoom quality over 5x and a lack of advanced video features compared to photography.
  • The phone can get warm during extended camera use or CPU-intensive tasks.
  • Haptics/vibration motor quality is poor and not well-integrated across the system.
  • Audio quality from the speakers is considered average and not very loud, lacking features like Dolby Atmos.
  • The curved screen design, while visually appealing, is noted by some users to be fragile and makes fitting screen protectors difficult.
  • The device is large and heavy, which may be uncomfortable for users with small hands.

Verdict

The Vivo X100s Pro (16GB + 1TB) is a flagship smartphone featuring the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, a 6.78-inch 120Hz LTPO AMOLED display with 3000 nits peak brightness, and a robust 5400 mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging support. A key selling point is the versatile rear camera system with Zeiss optics, including a 50MP main sensor, 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 4.3x optical zoom, and 50MP ultrawide sensor, all delivering exceptional photo quality, especially in low light. The device comes with a high IP68/IP69 ingress protection rating and a generous 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. Primary drawbacks include the selfie camera's lack of autofocus, the phone's limited availability in Western markets, and a shorter software update commitment compared to some major competitors.
