Vivo X300 Pro Ranks Second in DxOMark with Strong Camera

The Vivo X300 Pro has climbed to second place in the latest DxOMark rankings, just behind the Huawei Pura 80 Ultra. This impressive showing sees it leapfrog established top-tier models like the Oppo Find X8 Ultra and the iPhone 17 Pro.

Notable Performance

The device scored an outstanding 169 points in video performance, making it the best Android smartphone for movie recording according to DxOMark. The testers praised its very stable image stabilization, reliable exposure settings, wide dynamic range, and realistic skin tones. In still photography, it achieved 171 points, narrowly trailing behind the X200 Ultra.

Strengths and Weaknesses

The new model excels in telephoto photography, zoom quality, bokeh rendering, and performance in low light conditions. However, there are a few areas for improvement: contrast issues appear in some HDR situations, the ultra-wide-angle lens captures relatively narrow shots, and occasional artifacts such as ghosting or color fringing can occur. In very dark scenes, some images may look overly edited, with darker skin tones appearing lighter.

Despite these points, the Vivo X300 Pro demonstrates impressive overall performance and makes a strong statement at year’s end. It’s particularly appealing to users seeking top-notch video quality outside of Apple’s ecosystem.
