With a floating lens periscope that delivers near perfect portraits, the Vivo X100 Pro is a phone photographer's dream [source: stuff]

Another year, another vivo flagship with an impressive camera setup, top-class display, and an alternative high-end chipset - the X100 Pro just went global [source: gsmarena]

Featuring a trio of 50MP cameras, an advertised 3000-nit peak brightness screen, and an all-big-core Dimensity SoC, the latest and greatest in the company's X-series sure sounds exciting [source: gsmarena]

The camera system is headlined by a 1-inch sensor that vivo lists as 1/0.98" [source: gsmarena]

A periscope telephoto camera takes the zoom level to 4.3x optically, while an autofocusing ultrawide rounds off the opposite end of the competent triple setup [source: gsmarena]

The display maintains the 6.78-inch diagonal of the previous generation, and the resolution remains unchanged too, but vivo is boasting a peak brightness of up to 3000 nits [source: gsmarena]

The other big deal is the Dimensity 9300 chip - where the small cores are now big cores too, and the bigger big cores are four times as many as you'll find in the latest Snapdragon [source: gsmarena]

Another noteworthy upgrade this time around is the increase in battery capacity - the X100 Pro comes with a 5,400mAh powerpack in a sea of 5,000mAh-or-smaller competitors [source: gsmarena]

Standout design. Thoroughly excellent display. Better-than-most battery life, speedy charging. Super-powerful chipset, surprisingly good stability. Superb camera system, particularly great telephoto for both far and near subjects [source: gsmarena]
