Vivo X100 and X100Pro Highlights

The X100 and X100 Pro are the first smartphones to feature LPDRT5 RAM, which promises 13 percent better performance compared to the LPDDR5x RAM available in almost all recent flagships.

This score is higher than upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 powered flagships such as Realme GT 5 Pro, OnePlus 12 and Xiaomi 14 (already released), which received similar scores of 2,229,696, 2,110,808 and 1.97 points respectively on AnTuTu.

The X100 Pro+ with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip is expected to debut in the first quarter of 2024. The Vivo X100 series comes pre-installed with the all-new OriginOS 4-based Android 14. The X100 series also features enhanced Zeiss-certified Vario- APO Sonnar lens for periscope telephoto shooting.

The range is likely to have a starting price of 3,999 yuan (~$546), which is similar to the Xiaomi 14 series.
