vivo: X100 Pro is "Pro+", and there will be even more top-notch products in the future

Last night, after the vivo X100 series new product launch conference, vivo held a vivo X100 series media group interview.

In the Q&A session, Huang Tao, Vice President of Vivo Products, and Han Boxiao, General Manager of vivo X series products, answered some questions that everyone was interested in about the vivo X100 series.

For example, in the Dimensity 9300 launched by vivo X100, what did vivo and MediaTek cooperate with, and what did they do in the entire chip research and development process?

In this regard, Huang Tao said that many of the cooperation between vivo and MediaTek for SoC were discussed together at a meeting 3 years in advance, and after the direction of joint research and development was set, they would work together to make it and adjust it together.

Han Boxiao also said that starting from chip design, there are many things, vivo will ask MediaTek in advance to design according to vivo's standards, such as how to dock the external chip processor, and which sensors vivo chooses on this generation platform.

Because each manufacturer has its own set of things, whether it is an algorithm or a tuning, but the chip manufacturer may not be completely compatible with you and fully integrated, but vivo and MediaTek cooperation can indeed do this.

For the self-developed image chipV3X100 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro in terms of video shooting, Huang Tao's answer is more objective, Huang Tao bluntly said, if it is an ordinary scene video shooting, X100 Pro can probably do Apple's eighty or ninety, but it must be Android leading, in the 4K portrait video scene, X100 Pro is more than iPhone 15 Pro.

Regarding why the 2x portrait lens that vivo has been famous for a long time was canceled, Han Boxiao replied that using a 1-inch IMX989 to do 50mm focal length is not a difficult problem in the industry, and vivo's algorithm is ahead of the industry, and vivo's choice is based on the principle of effect priority, best comprehensive effect, best full set of effects, and the best of all.

This generation of vivo X100 series has a relatively big breakthrough in battery life and fast charging, not only equipped with a blue ocean battery, but also achieved PPS 100 watts, which is no longer limited to vivo's private charging protocol.

Huang Tao replied that the team behind the blue ocean battery life system was established more than 3 years ago, and the team size was already very large 2 years ago, including battery technology and power consumption optimization at the system layer, vivo's mobile phone attaches great importance to appearance, so vivo not only has to do the battery capacity density, but also control the battery volume.

For the compatibility of public protocols, Han Boxiao believes that this problem has some particularity and accidentality, this generation has just made a rule that meets global standards, but it is very easy to use, notebooks, computers, mobile phone charging heads are mixed with everyone, and they can be charged very fast.

At present, most mobile phones only support high-watt fast charging with their own private protocol, but the included charging head supports PPS charging protocol, so the vivo X100 series that supports PPS 100W can be regarded as truly liberating users, and you can really bring one less charger when traveling.

In addition, some media asked,Small screen、Straight screen products in the Android flagship field are still quite scarce,Why doesn't vivo consider the standard version to make small screen、Straight screen and other products。

For this question,Han Boxiao replied:About the small screen,We are more cautious about this matter,We will think about the actual user needs,Not just look at some of the current hot remarks。 We pay more attention to the effect, so we don't particularly care about the idea that sounds fierce in the selection of models.

Han Boxiao believes that vivo X100Compared with past products, it can be said that the toothpaste is crowded, which is suitable for the needs of thin and light appearance and strong performance, while the Pro is suitable for more extreme and more fierce needs. The basic performance is the same, and there will be some differences in some particularly high requirements.

Regarding the blue heart large model that was highlighted at this press conference, Huang Tao explained that the large model has requirements for the performance of mobile phones, on the one hand, it has SoC AI computing power problems, and on the other hand, it has certain requirements for DRAM, at least 8G.

This time, there is no Pro+ version at the vivo X100 series new product launch conference, so a lot of people are paying attention to whether there is vivo X100 Pro+.

Han Boxiao said that they found that with the current ProThis solution, it can reach the level of the past Pro+, which can meet the needs of these top image users, this product is already very OK, it can be said to be the ceiling of 2023, and the image mission of Pro+ in the past has been completed in this product.

Huang Tao's reply is simpler: The Pro product we released today is made according to Pro+.

However, Huang Tao also added that there will definitely be a very powerful product in all aspects.
