The Real Difference Between Vivo X200 Pro and Xiaomi 14 Ultra for Photography Enthusiasts

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

2:46 small editing error! Sorry^^ Was planning to remove that shot because it's 85mm on the vivo and 75mm on the Xiaomi. Sorry^^

[@brimstonesdadwide]

The contrast looks really high in that shot. Very impressive from both phones ^^

[@a.a.6969]

As you said, the difference is that on Vivo you can make small adjustments on the go and get the shot you really want Plus it's more consistent in general

[@NAM3L3555]

Well you can customise your profile in Xiaomi in pro mode and leave all in auto

[@searklarak]

Vivo has superior optics, such as their Zeiss T* coating, custom ISP and just more mature image processing as the brand is all about photography. Vivo tends to be more saturated and vibrant by default, so the Zeiss natural color mode definitely helps.

[@MitchellN2002nl]

You can't go wrong with either of them 👌🏻

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

@@MitchellN2002nl so true!

[@zizimai7568]

My buddy have the x200 pro & me 14U. When it comes to group photo, I prefer the X200 Pro where everyone's faces is evenly lighted & bright. With the 14U, you get the imperfection of shadows & partially lit faces across the group. This is a time when you don't want the photo to show the shadows especially when you want to post in social media. Having everyone faces evenly lighted & focused is a pleasing shot to the eyes. The 14U will have the slight blurish bokeh on faces in the background vs faces who is a little more forward & nearer to phone. But if you want to do a artistic shot of front vs rear faces, 14U does that with ease. X200 pro takes more tweaking to get close to the 14U but even then it messes up with evenly lit foreground & background. So in short you need to carry both phones for different scenarios ! 😆

[@jermaineplapp1985]

Nice Video . Yeah it is also the xiaomi 14 for me....the Vivo takes nice shots , but i prefer the Look of the xiaomi . Let's See what the xiaomi 15 brings

[@ashouhdy]

i ve got the HyperOS 2.0 more than a month now ( Global ) , the portraits where fixed (master portrait is to go ) , the shots are amazing ! ,, i still insist that Xiamoi 14 ultra is the closest you can get to a real camera right now , while vivo is the best of the mobile phone photography you can get .., i hope i wrapped my thoughts well and in short., the vivo is brilliant but for ppl like me the processing/sharpness/ai is a bit too much , the xiaomi processing is minimal just with the extra Leica vibe of contrast and adding this mysterious dark vibe to the shot that i like most... it just understands the mood and snaps it .. still for casual users i will advice Vivo for ppl into photography i will say xiaomi

[@Djoki1]

I am leaning ever so slightly towards Vivo. Light sources like Christmas lights or neon/LED signs are controled in a way that i prefer.

[@wizzhub]

I wonder what the 15 ultra can do with the Hp9 sensor

[@FAT8893]

It's hard to choose between the two. There are scenes where Vivo do better, and the same for Xiaomi. I guess I lean slightly more towards Xiaomi because of the Photography Kit. Also, I found out that Fotorgear made a phone case with embedded 17mm lens thread, so that opens up a whole lot more possibility.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

Oh I fully agree, it's a close battle, and yes I love that photography kit :D And 17mm thread? So it has a thread around each lens? or how should I see that? couldn't that lead to the camera being wide enough to shoot the edges of that circle?

[@FAT8893]

@ThroughJermainesLens Yup, 17mm thread on all four camera. That means you can use any 17mm mobile lens to it, including Reeflex's new 240mm Super Telephoto mobile lens. I believe someone made a video about that particular case here on KZbin.

[@FAT8893]

[@kevinortega678]

8:38 The Xiaomi one is very cool, that capture in particular

[@ontheroadvn]

xiaomi with leica more cinematic look. that''s why I love this cooperation

[@Anjula321]

something I've noticed in this video is despite having a much smaller sensor for the 3x shots, Xiaomi seems to always have the faster shutter speed out of the two in the shots you provided. could it be due to the f/1.8 aperture? could you do some testing on that, as well as 5x.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

yes that allows it to be faster :) And it's also easier to focus on close up objects a bit

[@Anjula321]

@ThroughJermainesLens interesting, I thought bigger sensor would bridge the gap very easily considering how much bigger it is. could this mean the 3x would potentially be better for 5x shots on the 14 Ultra than it's 5x sensor itself (which is at f/2.5) at night? for moving shots specially.

[@thatchinaboi1]

​@@Anjula321 Yes, if you don't need the extra resolution. But the size of noise will also increase when you digitally zoom in camera.

[@mahendrathatiboina2418]

man... this video is so detailed and neat. Great job👍👍

[@videogroszek]

Great comparison. In my opinion, the only good one on KZbin. You show what others have missed. Could you make a video about the configuration and settings for photos with the Xaiomi 14 ultra? The idea is to show what settings you use to take a photo in a given situation.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

Thank you verrrry much!!!And settings you mean in pro mode I assume right?

[@videogroszek]

@@ThroughJermainesLens Yes of course I would like to see many users how you use the pro mode and portrait mode. It's about contrast and saturation settings and choosing the mode depending on the circumstances. This phone has three modes: auto (which I practically don't use), portrait, and pro. It also has settings in the photo quality menu. It was only after a week that I found out that I had very good selected, and yet there is also a super setting. You've had this phone for a long time and you know much more that others will only find out in half a year :) This channel is watched by people who are interested in these details. Best regards and all the best in the new year.

I've been using 14T Pro since it came out which makes 2 months barely. Today I've ordered a 14 Ultra to see what I'm missing.

Bro u are living my dreams reviving new technology as time passes 🎉

[@Asura0089]

From Oneplus 11 I am now waiting for 15 Ultra, hope it really worths every penny and the camera gets better than X200 pro

[@christianf9844]

I would say that 14U doesn't leave enough compromises for the average user. Whether Leica Authentic or Leica Vibrant, we need something with less character, something in between that would allow the average user to find what they are looking for. Of course the amateur will find what he is looking for with these 2 available modes but Vivo has upped the game and smartphone photography is becoming more and more surprising. I have high expectations from 15U in this area. By the way, when I read that you have never shot in Vibrant mode on 14U, you are missing out on certain shots... You should test and show us your feelings. Happy new year Jermaine !

[@svenmuchow-tiktokads]

long time ago you made a video with tips on mobile photography and asked if you should make one about pro mode. I think it would be cool learning a little bit more about some cool things to do with it even though there's lots of long exposure pre settings etc on phones like the vivo

[@DariuszTech]

Both fantastic phones. Lets wait for the Xiaomi 15 ultra and the Vivo x200 ultra. Happy New Year 😊

[@travisbloomfield303]

Remember that you do this comparison based on what you prefer which is authentic. Vibrant will give it a summer and spring look also. Remember that Xiaomi has 2 defaults. It's only fair to give a proper comparison if you use both of them. I shoot in vibrant as my default.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

That difference between the 2 has become far less then for instance what you would get on the Xiaomi13 Pro

[@travisbloomfield303]

@ThroughJermainesLens That may be true but vibrant gives you more detail and less shadow crashing. It's more colorful also. I think it's good to show people how they both look in each shots.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

@@travisbloomfield303 I wouldn't call what xiaomi does in Authenthic is shadow crashing, it keeps shadows, it adds depth to the shot. I get what you're saying about using both, even though that would be a bit much because then we also get the 3 modes for the vivo, the video would be 3/4 times as long xD

[@peterkelder5603]

Wederom een goed en wetenschappelijk onderbouwd review. Bedankt hiervoor .

[@davidletterboyz]

7:55 what happened to the Vivo? Seems like too much artificial sharpening? The Xiaomi output looks more like a camera.

[@dexterdr.7020]

vivo is always very stable in terms of nailing the shots. As for personal aesthetic preference, one can always do that after taken the photo. that's why vivo's unmatched ability to capture the moment with enough details in zoom and in low night is very important to me personally. for styles, a lot of APPs out there can do it for me. I just need to pick and choose a filter.

[@TheShachimaru]

Having used the Xiaomi 14 Ultra for the past three weeks, I feel its design leans toward a more artistic approach, particularly in photography. Personally, I appreciate the imperfections Xiaomi embraces in both photo and video capture. While Vivo's clarity is undeniably excellent in specific scenarios, I can't help but feel a sense of artificiality when reviewing its samples.

I would like if vivo gets the one inch camera witu variabke aperture like in xiomi and a video stabikization and auto exposure from iphone.then it is perfect.imean perfect for me than a big long lens camera

[@___David__]

Based on this, yeah, I'll take the Vivo any day over the Xiaomi precisely because of the consistency. The Xiaomi came up with the better shot now and then but I overall much preferred the output of the Vivo. As for the RAW, it might be related to the way Zeiss creates their RAW files. I remember having this "issue" where it looked like the DNG files were processed in their Nokia phones of old. Shame that the Vivo X200 Mini isn't a Mini at all. Or based on the camera I could consider it. Let's see if the Oppo X8 Mini will also be a BS "Mini" or not. Fingers crossed... And Happy New Year!

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

Same to you mate! for the consitency, yeah I think many will have that as good reason to move from it. I think Xiaomi still is the master of capturing "feel/mood" but if the battery runs out fast then you can lose out with shots. i am ok with taking another shot, not ok with doubting if I can make the trip with enough battery life left to take shots.

[@tomrandom7091]

And finally, when i buy the xiaomi 14 ultra ( flash offer for 800 bucks ) they launch VIVO X200 Pro in europe, at 1100€, thankfully i saved a lot and there's not like a huge difference, although i prefer vivo as a X80 Pro owner zeiss optics are just superb.

A camera is as good to someone who uses it. You can give the best camera to a person but if he can not use it properly it's nothing.

[@somaticHuman]

I have a VIVO x200pro and I don't like the way it takes photos. I constantly see how it loses textures with a slight lack of lighting. It can take a picture of a car, and the texture of the road and the fine mesh on the radiator will disappear, but the rest of the foreground will be fine. It also takes the background as brightly as the foreground. It takes small highlights and barely perceptible highlights in the background as brightly as the brightest light sources in the frame. It takes equally bright pictures of matte and glossy surfaces. And, on shiny objects there are absolutely always highlights. All this work with light is terrible. Because although the frame looks bright, it completely loses the volume of the scene and what it really was. It can take a picture of a Christmas tree in the evening, and everything on it will be in lights, and it will remove the difference in lighting between the back branches and the front ones. It turns out that you have good and equally bright light on each branch, and you don't see the volume of the figure. If there was a play of light in the frame, VIVO will never convey the authenticity of the frame. It will ruin it. Its post-processing algorithms always make mistakes with lighting. You can only switch to RAW mode and lose even more. And for some reason this phone cannot focus if there is a moving object in the frame. You cannot take a picture of a moving child, you cannot take a picture of a cat washing itself. Wherever there is minor movement in the frame, some part of the frame will be blurred. During the time of owning it for about a month, I could not take a single clear close-up shot of children or pets, where there would be no partial blurring. So my summary: The mandatory conditions for a photo on VIVO are: Even and sufficient lighting in the frame so that the depth of the frame is not emphasized by the lighting. Absence of bright light sources so that there are no highlights. Absence of shiny surfaces that the phone will highlight, spoiling the frame. Absence of local movement so that there are no blurs.

[@Rain-Dirt]

We also have to take into account that the "settings" are not always the same.. F.e. a F18 versus F1.8 will be a difference in focus depth. The sensorsize does not matter much if other components are not able to fully take advantage of it. The consistency does seem to be better with vivo. The Vivo has a sh1tty top-heavy weight of the camera and the shape I wish they would get rid of one day. It seems to me that all the flag cameras have something to bring to the table that for some reason can not be put into the same device. There's always going to be a downside and an upside which is grrrrrrr.... marketing.

[@Jaishikshavaani]

Vivo for me

[@BlackParade01]

I saw some posts on Twitter that if you set the Vivo to Landscape mode with "Atmosphere", that its colour science becomes closer to the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Could you try this out? Because if this is true, then that would be a game changer for me haha (But it might be bullshit, of course. It's twitter after all)

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

I used that on my video where I was in france ^^ kzbin.info/www/bejne/rajXnKFtpMarpdU

[@neilmcguinness4422]

On some reviews, it has been noted that, in landscape mode, the Vivos details are very soft around the edges.

[@deepak1987]

I hope Xiaomi really greatly improves the highlight control and backlight contrast for both day and night shots, all lenses. The contrast needs to be much tighter when there are bright lights or backlights. I thought the Vivo was better because of the Zeiss coating, but Pixel9P also does near perfect highlight control, so I think there is lot of room for software improvement. Also sharpness on the 5x needs to be increased, it looks too soft most of the time.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

problem is when you do that you get closer to looking artificial, it can really come at the cost of "feel" in the shot. I rather have flaws that retain the feel of the shot then a perfect shot that because of it loses that feeling. Like pixel, realllyyy solid, but I never seen a picture where I am like: this shot I feel the scene! It's trying to be too perfect.

[@Slothymania]

Vileicht schafft es ja das vivo ultra diesen Magischem Moment vom Xiaomi14 ultra nahe zu kommen dann würde ich von xiaomi vileicht zu vivo wechseln ansonsten niemals ❤

[@MoncefVortex]

Thank you again for your great videos! I enjoy the comparison you make between flagship phones. I will probably wait for the release of the Xiaomi 15 series before making my upgrade decision.

[@ahmede4446]

I like the look of the Xiaomi but I think you can achieve the same look with some post processing and the pics out of the Vivo could be more versatile for that. For me, the Vivo has the best portrait mode on any phone camera in terms of edge detection and bokeh settings which really sets it apart. I have seen a lot of reviews and it nails the focus effect every time seamingly.

This is gonna be a good watch.

Nothing beats a larger sensor. Xiaomi is much more natural IMO... Vivo looks just like another smartphone shot.

Watching on my x200 pro😍

[@WrongButtonWB]

If you manage to get your hands on Oppo x7 ultra and compare them with these two, think you'd be surprise how good Oppo actually is.

I had it, but sadly for a very short time.

[@bala1741]

Hope Xiaomi doesnt go the vivo route and make the photos shapers and more phone like in the 15 ultra. Xiaomi 14 has a feel to it.

[@michaelk6957]

Not even a comparison for me. Colors, Details, macro, zoom, dynamic range, Vivo is better overall. Falls behind only at ultra wide.

[@RonaldPanorama]

Vivo v3 chip is very versatile..

Owned x200 pro but I really like leica authentic

The best phone 2024 Xiaomi 14 ultra & Vivo x200 pro

[@tionkatongtionkatong]

Vivo🔥🔥🔥

[@jensfriedrich604]

My whish for the Xiaomi 14 Ultra: Better, larger sensors in the next iteration level. I like the Xiaomi.

[@ThroughJermainesLens]

I want them to also go the 35mm road for the main sensor!

[@viktorbaresic4180]

And dual conversion gain for all rear camera sensors route too

[@eoin4597]

I'd go for the Vivo x200 pro between these two for a couple of reasons. The Xiaomi 14 ultra is really inconsistent for pictures of people. Also it isn't good relative to Vivo, OPPO or Honor for pics of moving subjects. The action mode is hit or miss on the Xiaomi 14 ultra and I like this feature on Vivo, OPPO and Honor phones. Having said that I think the Vivo x100 ultra is a bit better camerawise than the x200 pro. The zoom sensors are also a bit too poor on the Xiaomi 14 ultra. They could have at least given a better 3.2x one for indoor and lowlight shots. Even something like the 3x on the Vivo x200/Oneplus 13/Oppo Find x8 or the OV64b used on standard flagships last year

[@supratimbiswas599]
