The vivo X100 Pro could be the new king of the hill, it certainly came out of last week’s survey with brilliant results. The company hasn’t announced its plans to launch outside of China, and that’s been one of people’s main concerns: vivo has wide distribution, but it’s not quite global.

Therefore, the popularity of the X100 Pro will change in the coming months as the company brings the flagship to new markets. There’s something else that’s not known at the moment, the price, and that was another concern people had: it’s a cutting-edge device and it’s bound to be expensive.

If you don’t want to spend Pro money, there’s the regular vivo X100, which costs 20% less than its sibling (based on Chinese pricing). Some people in the comments said they actually prefer the Vanilla model over the Pro, but the survey results suggest they’re in the minority.

That’s not to say the X100 won’t be successful, it has a lot of potential, especially if it proves its mettle in reviews. After all, the X100 is almost identical to the X100 Pro, lacking mostly in the telephoto department (70mm lens vs. 100mm).

The similarity between the two phones hurts the X100 in other ways too. Some actually prefer a flat display, for example, which could have been more of an incentive to choose the vanilla phone over the Pro.

The vivo X100 and X100 Pro became available in China earlier this week, and on the first day of sales alone the duo hit CNY 1 billion. This is the best reception we’ve ever seen from a live phone, so it’s safe to say that these two are already a hit.
