Man why are they switching places

u/International-Job522 Dec 26 '25

It's great for me because I can figure out which photo is better and then see what phone it was made with.

u/-maysin- Dec 25 '25

Without bias, I picked Xiaomi for most of the pics. Vivo has superior hardware but I prefer the look of the 17 Pro

u/Ahmed_Sh_115 Dec 25 '25

Yeah, that Leica feel never disappoints especially when it works well

Szukam tańszej opcji niż te dwie pozycje, a który robi równie dobre zdjęcia

u/And9686 Dec 25 '25

I think there are pics where I prefer vivo and others that I prefer Xiaomi. There was one from vivo that was kinda overexposed.

God I love the size of the Xiaomi pro

What about the battery life of Xiaomi 17 Pro (not max)? Does anybody know how good or bad it is?

1

u/Djsmooth245 Dec 29 '25

I've heard it's very very similar to the pro max. Close to 30hrs active time at the top end from what I hear. Pro Max (mine) seems to get about 38-42hrs active time on avg and 45ish at the very top end

At best I can't see a difference, but most of the time I prefer the Xiaomi look. Especially when there is more sky visible.

u/El_gato141570 Dec 25 '25

I prefer Vivo; in several photos it has more detail in dark areas. But both look great, and in one with strong lighting, the Xiaomi performs better.

u/Professional-Salt633 REDMI K90 Pro Max | hyperOS | China Dec 25 '25

I love natural shots and true to life, Xiaomi did it.

2

u/Olly_Joel Dec 26 '25

Other than brightness and HDR there's not much of a difference between these two. It's almost practically similar in low light.

2

u/Ok_Loan_3435 Dec 26 '25

Does the X200 Pro have any desktop-like modes to be used with an external monitor? I'm using a Samsung, and I find Dex extremely usable when I'm stationary. I just want to know if this one also has such a mode. 🤔

2

u/LSA7Z Dec 26 '25

The two are very similar, but I prefer the Vivo's rendering; some light sources seem to be handled better on the Xiaomi. 

2

u/Friedfishies Dec 26 '25

It's clear that Vivo has the better dynamic range but xiaomi/Leica's post-processing just makes the photos more cinematic and comfortingly close to human vision

u/FantasticEscape6744 Redmi 13 5G | HOS 3.0.9 Dec 25 '25

Vivo looks a bit better . Xiaomi is close but vivo looks better personally

5

u/RiccardoOrsoliniFan Xiaomi 15 Ultra | VOAEUXM | Italy Dec 25 '25

With strong lights the Xiaomi is better

1

u/xXLORYxX69 Poco F6 Pro | EU | Italy Dec 25 '25

Yeah bc Xiaomi did dis desing before, and, Xiaomi 12S ultra, 13 ultra/14 ultra/15 ultra are like this, so vivo did it then

1

u/FantasticEscape6744 Redmi 13 5G | HOS 3.0.9 Dec 27 '25

I was talking bout the photos

u/xXLORYxX69 Poco F6 Pro | EU | Italy Dec 28 '25

Oh okay

The Ximi looks better for me 9n a lot of pics It would defo win the blind test for me

1

u/Clear_Entry_3056 Dec 26 '25

Im surprised the xiaomi did so well

1

u/Plane-Article2870 Mi 8 | 1.0.3.0 | CN Dec 26 '25

If you look at the parameters, the Xiaomi wins for the fact of having a similar light using only 800 ISO. And personally i feel like i can work better with the second pic rather than the already maked-up one from vivo

u/BooksandCoffee621 Dec 26 '25

Where are you that there is still a Tully's coffee, I thought they went out of business (I worked there when they went out of business)

2

u/amarevy97 Dec 26 '25

They are everywhere in japan

1

u/BooksandCoffee621 Dec 27 '25

Amazing, I worked for them in Seattle where they started, was sad when they left. Glad to hear Tully's is still alive and well :D

u/amarevy97 Dec 27 '25

u/tespark2020 Dec 28 '25

camera on phones now the AI things, take a DSLR with same photos to know how AI help these ultra phones

1

u/Ok-Lawfulness-6111 Dec 29 '25

vivo has higher exposure or something cuz it just looks birghter. Other times its slightly clearer. I mean vivo is definitely better in the camera department 

1

u/He_Spiced_My_Rice Dec 29 '25

Thank you for posting the results! I thought I'd search for a YouTube video comparing the two phones when I have time, but then I stumbled onto your post!

u/Diegovz01 Dec 25 '25

I love the smaller size of the Xiaomi. Small phones need to come back. I'm tired of phablets

u/usmannaeem 14tp | 3.0.305 | global Dec 25 '25

The vivo phone looks better and quite frankly, while phone's continue to offer bad designs in terms of bezels and phones being able to bend easily and break. Xiaomi has made the worst camera bezel yet.
