EDITORIAL: Like other Cheese phone makers, Vivo is going small. This years X vanilla model is 2mm narrower and almost 10mm shorter to put X300 well into the new "compact size" of 72mm or less. The battery is bigger than before and the Zeiss branded camera system Vivos are known for is also upgraded. It now features a new 200MP main and a new 50MP AF selfie. The built is improved as well with silky finish both on the back glass panel and on a (squarish, iPhone-like) aluminium frame.

EDITORIAL: The new Pixel Pro is a bit smaller, beautifully crafted phone with excellent screen, great camera setup and a very long list of AI (and other features) baked into OS with long support plan. Price is up but still gets you only a mediocre processor and a shamefully bad battery (in both endurance and charging speed) for a $1,100 lounch price.

PROs
flagship build with a new 5-color RGB light, excellent and very bright 2400nits ~500ppi 120Hz LTPO OLED screen with HDR10+, IP68 protection, very good 50MP 25mm OIS main + 48MP 106mm OIS periscope telephoto + 48MP 12mm ultrawide (all PDAF) setup, excellent 42MP 18mm PDAF selfie, good video recording, feature rich OS with a promise of 7 years of updates, basic desktop replacement functionality, fast USB-C 3.2 port, Satellite SOS Service
CONs
midrange Tensor G6 (3nm) with UFS 4.0 performance, 24hr endurance from a sub-5000mAh lithium battery with slow 80min 25W (25W wireless) charging, low PWM screen dimming rate will give headaches to some users, no expandable memory, gone is the skin temperature sensor, limited market availability, expensive at lounch
