* TOP Screen* TOP Selfie* TOP Video Recording
EDITORIAL: Released in May of 2024 and topped by Vivo X200 Pro phone, Vivo X100 Ultra set a new camera phone standard with its 200MP telephoto camera and a top all-around hardware and software imaging setup. This is one of the best 2024 phones for photography. It has an outstanding screen too but Vivo left room to improve by excluding a memory card slot and missing the 4 or more years of OS software updates that Apple, Samsung, Google and others offer.
PROs
very good SD 8 Gen 3 with UFS 4.0 performance, sub-30min fast 80W (30W wireless) charging, 1800nits bright >500ppi LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, top imaging from a OIS PDAF 50MP main + 200MP tele + a 50MP AF ultrawide, 50MP AF Selfie, light and fast Funtouch OS with 3 years of updates
CONs
<24-hour battery endurance, lack of expandable storage, only 3 year OS update policy, no desktop replacement software

EDITORIAL: Vivo is lifting it's V series of midrangers by adding an Elite badge unit. This is essentially a V70 with a better processor that can sustain years of OS updates and AI additions. If you can get it in your market, this phone should be on your list. It features fast performance, ultrasonic fingerprint reader, IR blaster, metal frame, great battery life, very bright screen and reliable imaging, all in a very compact, just 74mm wide body.
PROs
great sub-8mm thickness build, fast Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 with UFS 4.1 performance, excellent 30+hrs endurance from a 6500mAh Si-C battery with 50min 90W charging, >1900nits bright >450ppi AMOLED screen with HDR10+, IP69 protection, very good imaging from a 50MP main + 50MP periscope telephoto lenses, excellent 50MP PDAF selfie, good video recording, up to 4 years of OS updates
CONs
limited market availability, no wireless charging, no LTPO tech (tho battery life is excellent even without it), no expandable memory, no desktop replacement functionality, slow USBC 2.0 port (tho it does offer OTG)
