Xiaomi 14 Ultra vs Vivo X100 Pro Camera Shootout in Tokyo

I took the two best camera phones to the streets of Tokyo and snapped over 100 photos and videos. Presented in semi-vlog format. These videos take a long time to do, so please subscribe to my channel to support!
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra uses the new Sony LYTIA-900 1-inch sensor compared to Vivo X100 Pro's Sony IMX989. Plus Xiaomi has a variable aperture. But Vivo has a dedicated V3 chip for image processing.

These two phones are one of the best right now.

[@rimlatv]

It's great that Xiaomi and Vivo (Oppo and Honor too) keep improving up their photography so much. I hope it will be enough to wake up Apple and Samsung that are getting lazier each year..

[@kaiserfakinaway5909]

nope it won't, the average consumer thinks Apple and Samsung are the greatest on this planet, take a look at any popular youtuber. Mrwhosetheboss shills both Apple and Samsung as the best phones, MKBHD says the OP 12 is not worth reviewing at first because it's not that different but the S24 Ultra is such a good phone "why buy something else". It's not even the average person's fault anymore it seems reviewers are just as biased and incompetent apart from people like ben who actually like tech.

[@kaiserfakinaway5909]

@@omnihein9322 Samsung was worth shilling back in the day like back in the s7 edge and s8+ days, no one got close. Back then no one properly shilled Samsung, they just acted like android was poor man's iphone and chinese phones were actually not that great products but great in terms of value such as Xiaomi's Mi series phones till Mi 8 or something. Mrwhosetheboss just does what can garner the most views with the least effort. Remember back in the day when he used to do Vivo reviews and even though they were sponsored, you couldn't argue with the guy. Look at him now, Vivo either doesn't sponsor him or doesn't send him phones and he's all but forgotten them. Or take a look at how he didn't make a Find X6 Pro review but does to it for Xiaomi, he's been a Xiaomi fanboy for a while now and that was evident with the Mi 11 Ultra review and from that day on it felt like he'd just parrot what everyone else was saying because 90% of normies watch reviews to make themselves feel good about their purchase or how their fav brand is getting praised (case in point, Xiaomi's rabid fanbase).

For having seen the Apple results and camera software and for having and using the S24 ultra and I can guarantee you that you're right.

[@sidersproductions941]

This is such a great camera battle between some of the best manufacturers in the game right now. I still give the edge to the Xiaomi for the sheer intentionality of the camera system complete with a camera housing and grip. To further things though, Xiaomi has given us every possible hardware option of a true camera in giving the main sensor a variable aperture. No other phone gives you this level of control on a smartphone and this is the really exciting stuff that can push mobile photography/videography to the next level. Vivo has still done a killer job in their own right but the main sensor can also do 4k120 video which is a step ahead still. Great job Ben!

dude seriously, your videos are so good that's really really amazing, in this one so much little clips here and there but showing us so much good technical scenarios for the cameras AND GOOD LANDSCAPE / IMAGES + your analysis are so good, you are going in depth in everything, thanks for your work dude keep it up it is amazing (you should maybe try to do some vlogs sometimes, filming with this device then this device, mixing vlog and camera comparisons xD, but I understand vlogging could be annoying for sure) my little thoughts : 4:18 to be honest I much prefer the fact that it does not stabilize too much, than too much EIS which would lead to a lot of jitter, which looks and is sooooo bad, I hate when the footage is jittery (less jitter in the 5x than the 3x in this sequence you showed us) 6:11 yes, as you said throughout the video I LOVE the fact that Xiaomi does not overexposes the shots, that it keeps everything well controlled, giving images that have natural colors AND GOOD CONTRAST, which makes things "pop" and more aesthetically pleasing as you said, more natural, more contrast, everything stand out...

You know Ben,imho, as maybe Vivo surpass Xiaomi in some points(camera comparison) I still prefer Xiaomi experience due several items. As I am not a common user, I mean, once I buy a product I use it till is end of life so I like manage my money as better I can. Relating this comparison, Xiaomi can really get better by Xiaomi team itself or bless god, to the community that can really be a plus. I am owner of a Xiaomi Mi9 explorer edition and his camera got really better thanks some camera mods (gcam and Xiaomi Leica cam mod). I guess Xiaomi will be better in the end respect vivo due the community(root,roms,mods) that in vivo apperantly isn't exist. Vivo is like an "Android Iphone", ready to use, no more.

[@Neobright1]

Awesome video and summary - looking forward to more videos on the 14 Ultra

[@SeanSisco]

The reviewer and video I've been waiting for

[@TheWertiup]

As a X100 Pro user, I find that Vivo's processing tries to capture as much detail as possible in every situation. Thus giving you more of an overexposed HDR look, where details in the shadows and highlights are captured. Not as eye catching, but more room for editing. The Xiaomi on the other hand in my opinion definitely produces more pleasing colors and light, a more "ready" photo. Keeping things more realistic with darker shadows, which then you lose a bit of detail. More finished photo, less editing required. As usual, all down to personal preference.

[@dmitryche8905]

Я бы не сказал, что это детальность, это скорее чрезмерная резкость, с обводами предметов.

First thing I notice is the sound on the Xiaomi, it's using noise cancellation, sounds a bit weird, is it on the newest update? Other than that the differences aren't huge in my opinion, the Vivo handles backlit objects a bit better, like the red lights at 6:27 for example. Funny that a Chinese guy finds Tokyo the best city in the world 😅 Thanks for the video Ben, this is what a lot of people were waiting for.

[@MayankSharmaTheAtheist]

I genuinely don't understand why, in the west, everyone is still buying iPhones, Pixels, and Galaxy phones - these phones are orders of magnitude better than all of them.

It has a lot to with devices like these two are difficult to get ahold of here in Europe, we in Sweden for example is such a small market Xiaomi doesn't consider us important enough to market and sell any devices in. Personally i want to buy the new 14 Ultra but i don't know if it will be possible.

[@danielkudo4800]

To be fair, the S24 Ultra remains the most comprehensive phone, boasting superior design, display, speaker, UI, Galaxy AI, video recording capabilities, main camera quality, and a promise of 7 years of OS updates. On the other hand, despite any personal biases against it, the iPhone still outshines much of its competition with its brighter display, superior sound quality from the speakers, a more complete ecosystem, leading video recording capabilities, and significantly longer battery life.

[@kakasixtytwo]

Because I work with a smartphone, not a camera. Western Os are more complete. Please, do not forget that every phone not iOs works thanks to Android

Your vlog is very beautiful. What’s great about your vlog is that you mention that you’re not a professional photographer and videographer. You excel in reviewing, and many people can relate to your reviews. You always put disclaimer.

[@kaiserfakinaway5909]

Honestly, both of these cameras are great and I think I've yet to see a closer camera battle (if you ignore portrait mode). Xiaomi wins in some areas Vivo wins in others. I like how XIaomi keeps things natural with darker shadows and softer images, wish Vivo allowed that in a new mode like the Zeiss Natural or something or had a toggle. The day time shots are a personal choice thing but overall the night shots were so good on the Xiaomi. Wish Leica Authentic had HDR as good as Leica Vibrant and had the option to control the amount of contrast and vignetting applied. The Portrait mode shots on the Vivo are top class and if skin softening was a toggle and if there was a way to get softer images then it'd be the best portrait camera rn. Basically if these phones allowed us to tweak the algorithms a little bit more to suit our needs then they'd be so good we wouldn't need a new phone for like 3 years or so. Great vid as always ben.

[@prauunprauun91]

Ben, thanks for the comparison. Have been enjoying your tech videos. I do want to point out that vivo x100 pro can shoot 4k selfie video with an OTA update. I have one myself and can confirm that it does shoot 4k selfie video after the update. I can't remember exactly when the update was pushed out. I think it's been out 1 or 2 months already. Do check that one.

[@ifossilch3882]

Ben you are becoming the golden standard for choosing a phone! This comparison is what everybody wants. I am still going to stick to the x100 pro for now, only became its screen is slightly larger (narrower but longer) I hate the x100pro screen design like you do, but xiaomi 14 ultra's screen is even smaller, just by a bit.

OMG! 😃👍 So much information in such a brief video. I went forth and back for seeing all the details. It took me provably 15 to 20 minutes to watch this video. I was pixel-peeping. 🤭😂 I entered the video biased towards the Vivo. But Xiaomi has definitely the better looking images. Vivo has its moments of better sharpness, more detailed resolution and advantages at night. No doubt. But Xiaomi is definitely more pleasing. A *request* for your videos: when comparing 2 or 3 products try to keep right (center) and left through the entire video. The alternating order can be a bit confusing. 🤪

hi Ben nice short comparison, what I noticed is that xiaomi almost always takes very high ISO's and with the aperture open where I think I wouldn't have gotten half of it like vivo does, the high ISO numbers also mean worse photos, that's maybe also a problem like the general overexposure on the day of the xiaomi, what do you think Ben?????greetings Slohty

Hi friend, great video! Tell me, does the lack of band 20 affect the signal reception quality and mobile internet speed? In Europe, band 20 is everywhere.

As always, great phone camera comparison Ben. I noticed judders from Xiaomi videos at night vs Vivo. I think it's a close call. I personally prefer Vivo's night photos & videos. In Vivo, although it does not have a variable aperture, you can adjust the bokeh in post.

[@declanwright]

No, bokeh from a shot cannot be adjusted in post. Only portrait mode shots can be adjusted

[@weirdshit]

The variable aperture is useful at f4 for star burst effect. But it could supplement by using a star filter. Bokeh is usually faked by all camera phones.

Thanks Ben, Vivo is still the current HDR heavyweight champion. Their Zeiss T* coating, custom V3 ISP chip and image processing is just too strong. If I had to nitpick and find something I dislike, then it's the occasional overexposure but in general it's just better than Xiaomi and Samsung.

[@pokehunter7078]

Ben, I have tested the Vivo 100 Pro's camera against the Oppo x7U in high resolution. At first glance, Vivo's pics are eye pleasing. But once you enlarge the pics taken by the Vivo, the details are lacking. The pics from the Oppo proved lots more details and depth. Having used the Xiaomi 13U for 10 months, I can safely say that Oppo x7U takes pics with more natural colors.

[@TheRafael19952011]

I noticed the same problem on the X90 Pro+, it lacks details when it enlarges the photo, before I had an X70 pro+, and I expected much more from the X90 pro+, I have the impression that it is a physical problem, it seems that the lens is not exactly positioned at the ideal distance from the sensor thus affecting the focus even in high resolution mode, I think Vivo didn't know very well how to deal with the 1" sensor, ahh the night mode of the X70 is much, much superior to that of the X90 and X100, especially in very dark environments

[@Truth_seeker-bl5mi]

It has something to do with faulty processing... The sensor seem to be stitching images on top of images with slight deviation before previous image... This issue happens more than 50 percent of the time ..but if focus and images are stacked perfectly then image clarity is awesome...all this can be fixed by an update

[@joelconolly5574]

Yup. Pretty much what Shibi Chan reported when using Moment lenses on Vivo. It's not the best around.

[@Truth_seeker-bl5mi]

Just now I tested some full resolution images of s24u downloaded from net and compared with vivo opened in Google photos .. When zooming all the way I noticed almost similar details level although I have to say Vivo does some bad processing leading to lines and texture seeming to be somewhat look like oil painting...while Samsung's has almost perfect processing. So in essense samsung photos might look less detailed when viewing normally and zoomed out and vivo looks extra sharp but when pixel peeping both captures details but vivo has some smudgy textures and less defined lines. These can be attributed to bad processing. One thing u can check in vivo is taking shot at 10x and notice the preview screen...if there is slight movement of the hand, u will see a lag in frame (previous image before hand movement) the phone then tries to stack previous photo with current photo thus causing slight blending and out of focus of boundaries of objects resulting in smudgy images....this is my take on why vivo has sometimes bad processed images

Personally I'd still say Vivo's stayed true to the Cinematic and night mode superiority than most phones but Xiaomi is impressing me with the focus, probably due to the variable focal lengths. Be waiting for your review of Vivo's X Fold 3 when its being released.

You mentioned how much can you gain editing RAWs from the cameras. Can you do a video about that? Now I have S23U and for all my vacations, I shoot RAW as that gives me more flexibility. I use GCAM, as RAWs were ruined by Samsung few month ago with software update (no longer RAWs, multilayered JPGs stacked in DNG container). And this is what I miss. I cannot find anywhere any comparison, what RAWs from different smartphones look like. I know that most people do shot JPGs only, but for me they are not that important as RAWs and I would really, really appreciate some video that compares RAWs from S24U, X 14U, V 100X PRO etc.

Your opinions which on of these phones is Best camera phones?(S24u, xiaomi 14u, vivo x100 pro and oppo fx7 pro?)

[@Campino612]

The Sound of the recordings from Xiaomi are impressive, like in a studio.

I'm still confused as to which one is better for Videography, especially in low light scenarios, great video btw...

[@peterofori1765]

For lowlights...vivo is better

Greeting from hk ! Just got my 14 ultra today!!

[@sleepy1171]

What are your likes and dislikes of the phone? Also does it get super hot when you game?

[@user-hy3qr8su1y]

Vivo wins in light processing and the images were more natural, only Xiaomi wins by a small percentage in image details

[@Qrvishon]

It's almost impossible to say which one is better, cause it seems they have different top abilities but only by a little. Do you know if there will be Vivo 100XPro+ version, and if, when would it be?

[@kuuhakunever5262]

I want to ask about the Chinese version of the Xiaomi 14 ultra. Can I use cashless payments such as Suica (public transportation fees in Japan) or "Osaifu Keitai" (digital wallet)? If anyone answers this question I would find it very helpful. Thank you so much.
