    Vivo unveiled the X100 Pro, its current flagship smartphone, in China in November 2023. A month later, the company debuted the smartphone globally, and earlier this month, the brand launched the phone in India. Now, Vivo has made the X100 Pro available in Europe as well (via Notebookcheck).

    Vivo has priced the X100 Pro in Europe at €1,199 for the 16GB RAM + 512GB storage variant, and that’s the only memory configuration the company has made available in the region. Reportedly, the brand is selling the phone only in Austria and the Czech Republic at the moment, and we hope that it will soon bring the device to other countries in Europe.

    While the official price of the X100 Pro is €1,199, Alza has listed the device for CZK 26,999 (approximately €1,086). Plus, it is giving Vivo TWS 2 ANC free with the phone. At €1,199, the Vivo X100 Pro costs almost the same as most other flagship Android smartphones, except the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which, hardware-wise is a direct rival to the one from Vivo.

    Vivo X100 Pro specifications

    The Vivo X100 Pro is currently one of the most feature-packed smartphones in the market. It has a  6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 2,800 x 1,260 pixels resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It packs the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chipset, which is the only mobile SoC with four Cortex-X4 CPU cores, and runs on Android 14 with Funtouch 14 skin.

    It has a spectacular rear camera setup, which comprises a 50MP primary camera with PDAF, Laser AF, and OIS, a 50MP periscope camera with 4.3x optical zoom, PDAF, and OIS, and a 50MP ultrawide camera with AF. There's support for up to 8K/30fps video recording. The selfie camera is a 32MP unit. The phone packs a 5,400mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging, and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.
