Photo comparison between vivo X100 and Xiaomi 14 Pro-IT Wave-Northnet

The vivo X100 has been released for a while, but many friends in the background still sent private messages to the author, wondering how this phone takes pictures?

In fact, among products in the 4,000 price range, there is no doubt about the imaging strength of the X100. Even compared to some Pro version imaging flagships, the X100 is not inferior. First of all, from the perspective of hardware, in addition to the dual-core imaging core composed of Dimensity 9300 and self-developed imaging chip V3, its main camera uses a customized 50-megapixel IMX920 super-sensitive VCS bionic sensor. The ultra-wide angle is Samsung JN1, and the telephoto is upgraded. It is the same outsole periscope lens OV64B as the X90 Pro+.

This lens combination can be regarded as the ceiling for the standard version of the flagship in 2024. If you have a limited budget and have high requirements for image performance, the vivo X100 can undoubtedly meet everyone’s imaging needs.

In terms of algorithms, vivo X100 has also made significant improvements. This time it also brings a series of innovative experiences such as full-focus portrait shooting, cinematic portrait videos, telephoto sunrise, telephoto macro, etc., making users more convenient and more comfortable when shooting. Freedom also brings more creativity and fun. In addition, vivo X100 supports a variety of different color styles. In addition to Zeiss natural colors and textured colors, a bright color mode has been added this time, with higher color saturation and a very pleasing painting style.

Of course, having said all this, I believe you still cannot directly experience the photography performance of vivo X100. Therefore, when I was taking photos recently, I also brought another imaging flagship-Xiaomi 14 Pro. Next, I will let you feel the difference between the two through some scene comparisons.

It should be noted that since they are all at the level of flagship imaging, the comparison results are more reflected in the stylization of the proofs. As for which one takes better photos, it all depends on everyone’s preference.

Main photo sample

Main photo sample

Although the weather was good and the light was good, there was actually some backlighting when taking these two sets of sample photos, so we can see that there will be some exposure overflow at the edges of the picture. Overall, Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro has better exposure control at the edges of the screen, but when it comes to the center of the screen, the vivo X100 has better picture effects.

Main photo sample

In terms of image quality, the performance of the two is similar. After all, they are both mobile phones that are good at imaging, so there is almost no obvious difference.

Super wide angle sample

Super wide angle sample

The ultra-wide-angle lens can capture a wider field of view, making the buildings captured taller and more spacious. There are differences in color between the ultra-wide angles of Xiaomi and vivo, and the viewing angles are also different. Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro will be wider.

Next is telephoto. Due to the addition of periscope telephoto, the effect of vivo X100 has an immediate change when shooting telephoto samples.

2X telephoto proofs

This group was shot at the 2X focal length. Both are 2x cropped from the main camera. The image quality is still close. The vivo X100 image is slightly warmer, while the Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro image style is cooler.

3X (3.2X) telephoto sample

In terms of 3X focal length (Xiaomi 14 Pro 3.2X), the clarity is still about the same.

5X telephoto sample

10X telephoto sample

In terms of 5X and 10X, both perform pretty well. However, although they are both in “Color Vivid Mode”, Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro Leica Vivid has higher brightness and contrast than vivo X100. This is actually an algorithm strategy. Which one do you think looks better?

Finally, let’s take a look at the difference between the two when photographing the sun. Vivo X100 brings a telephoto sun function this time, which combines the ultra-large bottom telephoto + new OIS anti-shake system + new algorithm + Zeiss optical technology. At the 10X focal length, vivo X100 will automatically trigger this function. To put it simply, vivo X100 has been specifically optimized for shooting sunrise, sunset and other scenes, allowing users to easily take beautiful photos, instead of sighing at the beautiful sunrise and sunset.

Continuing to look at the actual combat, the effect of shooting the sun can be said to be clear at a glance. It is obvious that the vivo X100 is better. The main reason is that the outline of the sun is clearer and there is not much glare, making it easier to achieve the effect.

　　at last:

Overall, the performance of the vivo X100 in taking pictures is impressive. It not only performs well in terms of hardware configuration, but also has significant improvements in algorithms. In the price range of 4,000, vivo X100 is not inferior to other imaging flagships at all. If you have high requirements for photo effects but have a limited budget, the vivo X100 is definitely a choice worth considering. Not only does it allow users to easily take high-quality photos and videos, but it also has many innovative functions and gameplay that make shooting more interesting and diverse. Whether you are a novice photographer or a professional photographer, vivo X100 can be easily used and can handle shooting in multiple scenes.

Vivo X100 supports a variety of different color styles. In addition to Zeiss natural colors, it also includes texture colors launched by vivo on the X90s. Texture colors have lower brightness and slightly higher saturation, which are suitable for shooting scenes with strong contrast between light and dark.
