Vivo X80 Pro Review: Master of Photography

[@MichaelElsegood]

Is this the best phone in the world for still photography?

[@alihejazi2060]

Yes, like it's predecessor the x70 pro plus

[@faizan.gamerz.prince79]

Yes of course

[@leovice6505]

Where did you get the phone for $900, its mostly listed above $1000?

[@MichaelElsegood]

@@leovice6505 In live in China where this phone is produced.

@@MichaelElsegood does the Chinese version work good in English?

[@maxszeto7030]

Great video, very informative and high quality footage and commentary. I am looking forward to getting this but want to see if the Pro Plus variant will arrive at some point with the refreshed Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+.

[@MichaelElsegood]

Cheers man! Really appreciate it. Maybe in Autumn, along with the OnePlus Ultra and MI Ultra. We’ll definitely see some phones this year with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 +

[@Umairbaig923]

Im watching your video on it's younger brother X80 ... I have no words to describe how good this phone is ... Specially it's camera is just outstanding... Display is very bright & beautiful.. watching KZbin & Netflix on it is just a charm 😍 Battery life is better than average as im getting 6 & half hours to 7 hours of screen on time as i was expecting at least 8 hours of S.O.T from Diminsity 9000 Chip with a small battery size like iphone 13 pro max ❤️.. Anyhow this X80 pro will not come in my country, that's why i bought X80 couple of weeks ago & im enjoying every bit of it ... 😍

[@HOTSHOTGAMING-eb3ds]

How is phone's built quality? Is screen and body durable?

[@super.spartan]

This video deserves way more likes and views matey! Thanks a lot for your honesty. You're like the only one who has the balls to mention the bad stuff I hate it when 90% of reviewers make whatever they're reviewing look so great and don't touch on the negatives. I have a Google 6 Pro and its software post processing does wonders for image quality but what appeals to me the most in the VIVO X80 PRO is the cinematic video (portrait video)

[@Afronaut64]

Great review, my biggest worry is no availability here in Zambia🇿🇲 and software support. Will you be reviewing the ZTE axon 40 ultra? I am curious as to how well that under display camera will perform

[@MichaelElsegood]

Dude I ordered the ZTE but they cancelled the order. Really disappointing. And the way KZbin works I have to try and spend my time shooting an editing what is popular that week of release so I’m not sure I’m gonna do it now unfortunately. Cool looking phone though.

[@joshuachristianto5165]

bro, what camera u use to take this video? this is the first time I experienced an amazing and clear video on youtube, BRAVO!

[@MichaelElsegood]

I don't use a camera! I use my phone, iPhone 13 Pro! Video quality is easily the best over all other phones.

Thanks really appreciate that!

[@terrym540]

An interesting review, but in discussing the taking of photographs why no mention of the option to activate the dedicated Zeiss colour science, and the various Zeiss lens filters?

[@Phoneman-p9j]

Design & colour awesome..... vivo Please bring these kind of colours in india too... I have black version.

[@roughtraveller7002]

Wish they have orange version in Thailand. Can't decide between this or Samsung s22 ultra.

[@DvyynMicchael]

Great video! I'm actually contemplating buying the forthcoming X90 Pro+ over the 14 Pro Max! Because I think that new 1 inch sensor is going to be far better than the sensor on the x80 Pro! If the phone doesn't beat the 14 Pro Max, I'm not going to buy it! But if it does... 😀

[@chrispham1113]

8K is a long way to go!!!

[@aliibrahim449]

I'm watching your video on vivo X70 pro plus the last year model and it's still a solid device.. if i want to upgrade that would be because of the fingerprint scanner and camera enhancement only but I'll wait cuz I'll get android 13 here too

[@SHUTENSEPC]

Wow, what a picture

[@garyguest1999]

Has the camera got a macro mode?

[@Kunnamkulam_Insta_Vibes]

Same model orgin os im using when I taking pics in night mode or daytime only face brightening automatically whats the problem u konw that

[@joeroyallsr2741]

Great video. Question, this is my first vivo phone. I love it, but can I or is it possible to install origin os over funtouch? I have the global version and want to try origin os. Also is it possible to buy the orange case that your model cobra with? Or even a skin. There is nothing here in the states. Not much info at all really. Thanks

[@gregzeng]

Updates should correct these socalled failings. Microsoft Launcher or Nova Launcher is my preference. There's are many other camera apps, including Open Camera.

[@JeremiahFestus2]

Nice video, please how do I get the origin os oxygen on the global version of the X80 pro?

[@pavan.11]

Nice one! Origin OS sure looks good.

[@MichaelElsegood]

Yeah man, so cool and feature rich! Thanks for the view!

[@rilladelphia]

Where can I buy in the US? Looking to buy ASAP!

[@DariuszTech]

Very nice review. If you don't mind me asking. How did you manage to get the Vivo. It's pretty much impossible to buy one here in the UK😭 I would love to do camera comparison with s22 ultra

[@MichaelElsegood]

Hey dude, I live in Shenzhen China 🇨🇳 easy to get here

[@jerryyapkh]

Is there a notification delay or not received on this phone on Global version? Snapdragon 8 chip. This is extremely important

[@selimahis]

no

[@rckwin]

Loved your review 🙌

[@MichaelElsegood]

Cheers, appreciated!

[@pa9030]

I'm confused about the os though, if I understand it correctly outside of china you get the boring one right? and is there a way too change that?

[@mokisan]

Thanks for the great video. I really love the x80 pro been pondering to get it for youtube live streaming and stuff. But i wonder of third party apps get access the native camera app like they do in iphone. Also ypu forgot to cover one main point, can you shift and use different lenses while recording video?

[@MichaelElsegood]

Cheers dude. You cannot change lenses in any resolution unfortunately.

[@ashouhdy]

​@@MichaelElsegood it change lenses @1080p on my X70pro. ..Global version

[@MichaelElsegood]

@@ashouhdy Oh ok, I never shoot in 1080P haha I'm fully committed to the 4K life.

[@adequategamer5537]

do apps use the main camera?

[@SheetzChills]

Probably not...... Android doesn't work like ios

[@vergilVMD]

@@MichaelElsegood you're camera review was particularly helpful

[@bunyaadi]

What frustrates me is youtube videos highlight these products which are not obtainable outside China.

[@MichaelElsegood]

Well I live in China so perhaps you can give me a pass 😂

[@bunyaadi]

@@MichaelElsegood you know what I can get one on import although I risk not having all bands compatible with the UK. I am looking at getting a dedicated camera anyway so I can link the files via an app. There is an upshot to that I no longer have to rely on my telephone having the best camera lens. Added bulk obviously however all that won't matter if i am still able to control the camera via the phone itself. I own a s21 ultra and it still has life in it. The 108MPixel images are not worth the extra size in terms of image quality. What has helped us to use optical filters to control the light hitting the sensor. But anyway enjoy China and it's technology.

[@jayhealth5264]

You can turn off the smoothing effect on the vivo X80PRO. Once you learn the camera and how to use all the features it blows iphones, Samsung, and other Smart phones out of the water.

[@tsunarun]

You deserve more subscribers 👍👍😜 Like this review cause it's unbiased. 😜 One question i have a problem with google message and Mms or photos when I try to send. Did you noticed this

It's 5x telephoto, I guess. Not 2x.

[@MichaelElsegood]

There are two lenses. 2x and 5x.

[@rolins3279]

For me this Vivo x80 Pro is currently the best smartphone in photo-video and seriously I love this fingerprint sensor. But,I'm waiting for the day when Vivo will integrate a quality selfie camera that films in 4k60 🤞🏽 For the moment no Android smartphones released after the Snapdragon 865 and 870 are worth their costs for me, ''Without control power is nothing'' The latest Mediatek are very good but lack the proper software tracking, the upcoming 8+ Gen 1 from Qualcomm looks very promising but strikes me as a retread. I hope that by the release of the 8 Gen 2 Vivo will have understood that the selfie camera is today as important as the main rear camera. 🙏🏽

[@MichaelElsegood]

Yeah I really don't get how this year many mid range or budget phones can shoot in 4K using the selfie camera but the flagships can't?!!!

[@chrispham1113]

Why can't iPhone makes this kind of color?

[@MichaelElsegood]

Actually I use the iPhone to shoot all of the videos on this channel and I must say, having a natural colour is best, so you can edit properly and the quality will not degrade once you start to play with the footage.

[@kp66udv]

Seriously? You can't see the Vivo's oversaturated colors and over-done HDR that is making the pictures looked fake and weird?

[@MichaelElsegood]

I can see that saturation levels are higher than the reality in front of me, but they do not go as far as other high end androids that I’ve tested. I also prefer HDR looking images in general, I think they look fantastic. Although personally I prefer iPhone for raw images and editing in Lightroom. But on this comparison it was more for the average consumer, and the X80 Pro was better. Way better, in that regard. So yes! Seriously!
