The vivo X80 series released not long ago has really become a top-notch hot search, not only with the dual chip blessing of Tianji 9000 and Snapdragon 8, but also with the blessing of new micro-gimbal technology, the lens technology is also more outstanding, and the empowerment of the century-old optical giant ZEISS has brought full faith. And unlike last year's X70 series, this time the X80 series has only two X80 and X80 Pro versions, which can be seen as a cup operation.
But the problem is that the difference between the X80 and X80 Pro in the same storage version reaches 1500 yuan. This makes many players wonder: 1500 yuan is not a small amount of money, if you want to consider the cost performance, if you want to be more realistic, X80 and X80 Pro in the end who is more worth starting?
Well, we have to look at the specific configuration. The X80 series focuses on the photographic configuration, and the difference between the two is still quite large. First of all, the lens configuration, the main lens of the X80 and X80 Pro are 50 megapixels, but the X80 uses the Sony IMX866, the size is 1/1.49 inches, which is actually not bad; but the X80 Pro uses a customized GNV sensor, with a larger size of 1/1.3 inch, which is larger than the Sony IMX866.
That is to say, in terms of the size of the sensor, vivo sets a clear difference between the two versions. Players familiar with photography know a particularly classic saying: "The bottom level crushes people", which means that the full frame of FF must be better than the quality of the APS-C half-frame. In fact, this sentence can be said in the field of mobile phones, so if you want the ultimate imaging quality, it is right to choose the X80 Pro.
At the same time, in terms of ultra-wide-angle lenses, the gap between the two is not small. The X80 uses a 12-megapixel Sony IMX663 sensor, while the X80 Pro uses a 48-megapixel Sony IMX598 sensor. So the X80 Pro's ultra-wide-angle lens is better, and that's not to say.
Another point that cannot be ignored is that the X80 Pro has the blessing of micro-gimbal technology, whether it is taking photos or videos, the picture is more stable. Especially in low-light environments, if a longer exposure time of the shutter is required, micro-gimbal technology can allow longer holding times. Therefore, it is not difficult to see that vivo attaches more importance to the X80 Pro, and the stacking level is not comparable to the X80.
In addition, the difference in chips is also very obvious. X80 only has the version of the Tianji 9000 chip, while the X80 Pro has a dual version of the Tianji 9000 and Snapdragon 8, but the optimization of vivo's self-developed chip V1+ is for the Tianji 9000, that is, the Tianji 9000 is the right choice. Although the book numbers of Snapdragon 8 are very strong, the old problems of large heat and low energy efficiency have not been solved.
Speaking of which, in fact, how to choose has become very simple: if you have particularly high requirements for photography quality and stable handheld, then you should directly start with the Tianji 9000 version of vivo X80 Pro, on the one hand, there is a larger bottom 50 million pixel main lens, there is a micro-gimbal, on the other hand, there is a Tianji 9000 chip. Don't look down on MediaTek, people have perfectly counterattacked in the X1 and X2 nuclear era, with strong performance, more power saving, and too much worry than Snapdragon 8.
If your requirements for photography are not so strong, then buying X80 is completely enough, the photography ability is enough for the usual needs, and the most expensive version of X80 is only 4899 yuan, which is several hundred cheaper than the starting price of X80 Pro.
