Cyrusher XF800 Review - Filmed On The Vivo X90 Pro+

[@kingkal81]

Love your dual review of a phone & eBike. Very creative and professional. Hope you had a great Christmas and New Year.

[@Techtablets]

Thanks, you too! And for watching my videos!

[@Daivd1111]

If you didn't say this is done on a phone, I wouldn't be able to know. Phones these days are so good!

[@Techtablets]

That’s good to know!

[@mohammadzein504]

The photoage from the X90 pro was reasonably good! It was over exposed in some instances but the stability was good and it did an ok job. The crusher looks the business, and gets a lot of things right. That climbing power and those hydraulic brakes do impress! But at 1800 dollars they should have completed the package with better shocks. Thank you Sir Chris for the great content as always ✌✌👍

[@Techtablets]

If I used Pro mode I can see now I could have fixed the color and brightness issues. I jsut used auto mode to make it quick and easy and most people use auto with video on a phone. Still it did well and the EIS was particularly good with the ultrawide shots like a GoPro almost. As for the bike, a lot of power, climbs great but yes overpriced and the rear shock is a "shocker"

[@Tobi.Canobi]

For me the Vivo phone did a much better job than the bike ;-) ...the bike with this specs for this price doesn't catch me. But thanks for testing and reviewing it, great and informative like always, Chris 🙂

[@Techtablets]

Fair enough!

[@MrKrueger88]

Can I please clear up a few things . Kmc is a known brand , they are a huge manufacturer of chains across many industries and are of very good quality . The rear suspension , although firm is travelling more than one centimeter , while the shock shows one centimeter , the leverage arm has a ratio arm built in , and at a guess I would think the travel might be 5 centimeters, and possibly more .

[@chucknorris8704]

You can definitely see the 8K sharpness in the static tripod shots of you and the bike, however, was the first-person-view footage of you riding the bike also in 8K or 4K?

[@Techtablets]

No that was 4K as it needs the EIS. 8k has no EIS and no crop.

[@maoualtor3015]

Genius idea . Maybe the best way to test new flagship camera . Also it would be nice if we could saw more view from the natural habitat of your country

[@zodiacfml]

interesting video with the Vivo! Conventional cameras can't shoot this bright but a smartphone shoots bright while keeping the highlights. Will shoot with this again but with an HDR compatible output file?

[@Techtablets]

I could do it as HDR. If I recorded this in pro mode I would lower the exposure a bit and a few other tweaks which would improve it.

[@zodiacfml]

@@Techtablets would love to see that!🔥

[@Techtablets]

I might try using pro mode and then grading tweaking the video for another ebike review.

[@Mark_Maguire]

Hey Chris, the Vivo did very well. No problems with sound or video for me. If you hadn't mentioned it most people would have thought you had used a GoPro. Happy to see you review a Cyrusher bike. On Ali Xpress the SMLRO branded ebikes seem to be largely the same bike as the Cyrusher but cheaper. Although they will usually have unbranded motors and brakes. My take on all of these Chinese fat bikes is that they have strong motors and decent brakes but cheap suspension that makes them unsuitable for off road riding. On the other hand, if you wanted to trail ride it, a few hundred dollars spent on an air shock and beefier air forks would greatly improve things. Lastly, how did it compare to the Gogo Best fat bike you reviewed a few months ago? Perhaps a hard tail would be a better safer option in this price range?

[@Techtablets]

Sorry for the delay just saw this comment. I love that Gogo best GF700 dual motor one is so much fun and crazy quick. I'll have more Cyrusher ebikes and others coming in the channel.

[@shahan1465]

That's so sick that a phone can do that nowadays. Himiways are a great competitor to cyrusher, maybe himiways one upping cyrusher with their new releases

[@Jefe_Perro]

Could you manage to pop a wheelie without battery assistance for some one fat wheeled cruising? 😉

[@Techtablets]

Too difficult it’s so heavy for that. But with the motor maybe 🤔

[@Jefe_Perro]

@TechTablets You should try! I've heard a rumour with ebikes that if only one wheel is touching the ground it doubles the range 😅

[@robp3431]

The perfect bike for someone who doesn't want a workout or feel the terrain.

[@georget10i]

What did you film the Himiway Crusier Review with? Because it looks much better in terms of colours. The biggest problem with smartphone cameras in bright daylight is very fast shutter speed producing an unpleasant video when in motion. Can't have that 180 degree shutter rule. Great review of the bike!

[@Techtablets]

I filmed this all on the Vivo X90 Pro+

[@georget10i]

@@Techtablets No, no, the other bike review that you have on your channel, the Himiway Cruiser

[@obarthelemy]

Close ups are fine, panoramic shots look weird, over-sharpened but less contrasty ? If you usually post-produce, it would have been interesting to see w/ some post-production. I assume people who buy this phone will post-produce at least a bit ?

[@Techtablets]

I just left it all how it came out. But if I was to do this again with the X90 Pro+ I would certainly go for manual pro video mode and later grade the video myself in post. Some shots where just overexposed and odd colors saturation in the sunlight. Then other shots were just fine. Even just using Pro mode with a fixed white balance, tweaked exposure I think it would look a lot better.

[@ChiekoGamers]

waiting for your Xiaomi 13/Pro review

[@Techtablets]

Work in progress, camera comparisons coming first and then once I have a good feel and overall know the ins and outs I will post my full review.

[@delpinsky]

I really liked the recording with the Vivo! It seems a really good phone, overall. The ebike is interesting. Too bad for the battery drain while climbing. It's really too much for a small (I guess) climb. Clearly some parts of the bike are cheap and we can't expect much from such Chinese brands, but it seems a decent ebike, not a complete garbage.

[@grzegorzhankiewicz9169]

Detail looks fine but some edges in the image look odd, as if they were enhaced too much. A few of the shots looked a bit flat without much range, like when you are talking and the sun is on your face part of it seems completely white. The bokeh effect in the distance felt a bit distracting. Overall perfectly usable, no complains about stabilization.

[@Techtablets]

Yeah I agree, many shots were a bit off the odd colour and contrast in the sun. Also some overexposed shots, I think the 8k came out ok, maybe a bit too bright. I think using Pro mode manual settings I could get a much better result and some post editing tweaks.

[@atoo7yt490]

just me or is the vivo footage overexposed?

[@Techtablets]

That's the issue with the footage often far too bright and colors are a bit off & washed out. I could have tweaked it editing but left it as is untouched just cropped some bits. The 8k footage had better exposure and colors.

[@parshakamarsh]

I agree with you about the brightness, but that should be easily remedied through software updates. Other than that, it's remarkable how good mobile phone footage is getting nowadays

[@mfg-music5875]

@@Techtablets The close up shots are insane, and also, in pro mode you can change exposure, shutter speed, white balance etc, all of that WHILE recording so no need for a software update if using the pro mode @atoo7yt490 Btw, if you woldnt have told me i wouldnt notice it + without the vivo hint in the corner, i would say yeah camera for the bike shots (even the shot where you just stand there has backround blurr) and while you drive i would have said you re using a go pro (maybe not the latest model though)

[@Techtablets]

Yes if I stuck to Pro mode I could have improved the shots, I just used auto. 8K had the best colours and downscaling it from 8k to 4k makes it extra sharp 4k footage. Overall I'm pretty impressed with it, just for this I really should have gone with manual Pro mode for the video footage.

[@bbwblk]

Those tires are thicc

[@Techtablets]

Very 4-inches wide!

[@larsgustafsson9128]

Nice review! I do believe the brand name is pronounced [Cy-Rusher]. You should review the Kuattro!

[@Techtablets]

Noted! I thought I got it wrong, I will send if the Kuattro could be sent to me.

[@enigmalex3649]

If the tires were tinner it would be lighter and more maneuverable

[@Techtablets]

Certainly would be, but then these tires are great for soaking up a lot of rough roads and trails.

[@ктототамгдетотам-ш9у]

So what is your thoughts on Vivo ? Want to buy but thinking about 12s ultra or maybe iPhone.

[@krollpeter]

For an e-bike it's not cheap. For small enduro moped it's alright.

[@Techtablets]

Yes quite expensive for this style and brand

[@heikootto2865]

Well nice man- my vivo x90p+ just died and its on the way back to china right now lol :D

[@Techtablets]

What!? How what happened?

[@heikootto2865]

@@Techtablets I plugged the charger in and it charged up from 32-81%. While doing so I casually used it but no heavy load and it was cool too. After I took it off it randomly rebooted and never came back to life. Even plugging it back in gave no feedback. Not even the charger got warm or the mobile itself it was completely dead. Pc connection wasn't available, charging it for a few hrs didn't work, different charger did not work etc. I'm in contact with tradingshenzen and nobody really knows what happened but I will keep you updated for sure.

[@Techtablets]

Oh not good have you tired holding the power button down for a good 7-8 seconds then wait 5 seconds then hold it down again 2-3 seconds. Please keep us updated.

@@Techtablets I got an email this morning that the request is accepted. The device will be shipped back to China, will be repaired there and then send back to me. Well I'm not really satisfied.
