The vivo X100 Pro has emerged as a potential market leader after receiving impressive results from last week’s poll. The company has not yet revealed its plans for releasing the device outside of China, which has raised concerns among many potential buyers. While vivo has a strong distribution network, it is not yet a global brand.
As the company prepares to introduce the flagship model to new markets, the popularity of the X100 Pro is expected to evolve in the coming months. Another issue that is currently unknown is the price, which has been a point of concern for many consumers. Given its status as a flagship device, it is anticipated that the X100 Pro will come with a high price tag.
For those who are not willing to invest in the Pro model, there is the regular vivo X100, which is priced 20% lower than its counterpart based on Chinese prices. Some individuals have expressed a preference for the standard model over the Pro version in the comments, but the results of the poll indicate that they are in the minority.
Nevertheless, this does not signify that the X100 will not be successful. It possesses significant potential, particularly if it proves its capabilities in reviews. After all, the X100 is nearly identical to the X100 Pro, with the primary difference being the absence of a telephoto lens (70mm lens compared to 100mm).
The similarity between the two phones also impacts the X100 in other ways. For example, some consumers favor a flat screen, which could have been an additional reason to choose the standard model over the Pro version.
The vivo X100 and X100 Pro became available in China earlier this week, and on the first day of sales, the two models collectively generated over CNY 1 billion. This marks the most successful launch of any vivo phone to date, indicating that these two devices are already a hit.
