vivo X100 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
8.0/10
Verdict
The Vivo X100 delivers on its promises. The cameras are outstanding, the performance feels smooth, and the battery life is excellent, topped up by an impressive fast-charging solution. Additionally, the display offers an impeccable viewing experience. While the phone can be a bit slippery, the design is catchy and provides a good in-hand feel.
Pros
- Catchy design
- Impressive display
- Excellent cameras
- Smooth performance
Cons
- Lots of pre-installed apps
- Underwhelming performance
Design and display
+
The Vivo X100 design can only be told apart from the X100 Pro primarily by the additional sunset orange colour variant of the latter. Other than that, it is the crescent metal ring around the camera module of these smartphones. On the X100 Pro, the crescent is positioned at the bottom of the module, whereas on the Vivo X100, it falls gracefully on the right side. I received the Startrail Blue colour variant of the X100 for review. The handset also comes in an Aestroid Black shade like the X100 Pro, visible in the image above. I admire the Aetroid Black more, but if you are into shiny colours, the Startrail Blue would be a good fit for you.

Cameras

Now, coming to the main aspect of the phone - the cameras. The Vivo X100 ships with a triple rear camera setup comprising a 50MP primary sensor, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 64MP 3x periscope telephoto lens. Unlike the Pro variant, the vanilla X100 doesn't have a floating telephoto lens which helps provide superior stabilisation. As a result, the handset can't capture sharp images at zoom levels beyond 10x zoom. While there is a shift in colour when the viewfinder switches to a telephoto lens, the level of detail remains respectable at least in well-lit areas with 3x and 5x zoom. That said, the dynamic range remains could have been better. The finer details around the shadowy areas look underwhelming.

Performance and software
+
On the performance front, the Vivo X100 rocks MediaTek's mightiest chipset to date, the Dimensity 9300, under the hood. It is paired with a custom V2 chip to improve image processing and up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM + 512GB UFS 4.0 storage onboard. Pretty flagship-grade stuff here, ensuring a steadfast performance whether you are multi-tasking or gaming.

Battery and charging speeds
+
The battery on the Vivo X100 is a tad smaller than the X100 Pro. The handset is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery instead of 5,400mAh that the Pro model boasts. The smartphone also lacks wireless charging. However, all that has been compensated with a remarkable 120W fast charging solution, surpassing the Pro's 100W. The bundled charger in the box can efficiently juice up the smartphone from 0-100 percent in about 25 minutes.
