The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra has established itself as an impressive telephoto camera leader, surpassing even the Google Pixel 8 Pro. However, there is a new contender in the ring, the Vivo X100 Pro, which features a camera and lens system developed with Leica, offering a competitive telephoto camera.
To determine if the Vivo X100 Pro can dethrone the Galaxy S24 Ultra, a comparative photo test was conducted between the two devices, yielding surprising results.
The cameras
While the Vivo X100 Pro may not be widely available in the U.S., it boasts an impressive camera setup, including three 50-megapixel cameras: a 1-inch 50MP main, a 50MP wide-angle, and a 50MP Zeiss APO Floating telephoto camera with a 4.3x optical zoom. The Vivo X100 Pro promises high-quality zoom shots ranging from 10x to 100x, akin to Samsung devices.
On the other hand, Samsung’s Galaxy S24 Ultra features a 200MP main camera, a 12MP wide-angle camera, a 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, and a second 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. Both devices employ different hardware and software configurations, setting the stage for an engaging comparison test.
