    I could care less about pointless camera AI features like being able to move a subject around after the fact which takes 30 seconds to do one photo while it goes online to fetch server power. What I actually care about are two things: 1. The Zeiss T* coating they use actually works. Most phone cameras have HORRIBLE flare directly into the sun. These don't. That's the Zeiss coating doing its job. 2. The optics on that telephoto camera.
    Most flagship level phones have pretty solid 24mm main sensors and lenses. What can you do for me at 100mm? Most phones at that range produce watercolor paintings. The X100 Pro isn't just "oh it's a little bit better than iPhone and Samsung at 5-10X zoom" - it's destroying them. Like night/day better.

    Juan why is it that the phone is beating out your Threadripper + 4070Ti workstation when it comes to rendering? It doesn't make sense to me.
    I mean even if you don't use the 4070Ti's hardware encoders and solely rely on the CPU - the Threadripper still has insane multithreaded performance to crush the render.
    Something is not adding up.

    • @SomeGadgetGuy
      @SomeGadgetGuy  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      When you optimize software for a platform, you can deliver some incredible results. Techies really have NO clue how much compute power they leave on the table just doing basic phone stuff on premium phones.
      I'm not exaggerating when I say my gaming test is now "can this play alien isolation at max graphics over 100fps".
      Of course, platforms matter too, and Davinci Resolve is a MUCH more robust editing suite, but there's also a lot more overhead on a full PC.
      It's a really complicated conversation, to figure out exactly all the specific reasons why, but if you're cranking out short form video, chances are really good, you get better performance per dollar on a phone.

      @drashyr 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In 6:01 we see MEG X399 CREATION motherboard which means at best he has second generation Threadripper, looking at some old video he talked about Threadripper 2990WX getting released next week but the one that he wants will be released in october so that means at best he got Threadripper 2970WX so he has 6 year old 24 core processor in there. There is now 5th gen of Threadripper. If you compare that 2970WX which was second best at the time to current second best 7985WX it would get smoked. Even if you compare processor with same core count which would be 7965WX it would still get smoked (looking at multicore results 7965wx get 3 times result of 2970wx). So that smartphone is not that powerfull, he just got old computer. In that old video I mentioned he talked about future-proofing his computer and I understand why, at the time cpu market was stagnated for years by Intel just refreshing old processors with newer names, but as it turns out it would be better for him to get good AM4 motherboard and switch cpu every 2 years. 2970WX was at launch 1299$ for that he could get ryzen 9 3950X for $749 and later switch to ryzen 9 5950X for $799. That's 250$ more but
      a) he could sell 3950X
      b) save on motherboard as MEG X99 CREATION was 500$ and for AM4 you could get solid board for 160$-200$.
      I don't know this channel, just popped in for OP 12 review, but I'm guessing he is doing this for dramatic effect, notice that he never mentions the fact that this CPU is very old nor the specific Threadripper model, so he is not lying but it's not exacly true truth.

Initially, there were no problems for two to three months, but the issue started occurring after one to three weeks. The service center says it is a common problem and that all cameras with ZEISS brand lenses experience this.

Of course, if you like a bit better build quality, screen quality, OS reliability, and would fancy an S Pen, then there's only one choice. But for photo and especially video, no phone can beat Vivo, they have a dedicated chip just to treat the image coming from the sensor. All other brands rely solely on their processor baked in ISP. This thing is an insane machine, will be the best by far until they release the X100 Ultra, and if the leaks are truth, the iPhone 16 Pro might have a slight chance of dethroning the X100 Ultra, but still not likely

      @mriatravel Oppo has been thrown off the European market because of legal issues and for some reason that made them stop competing against Vivo. They were reportedly even making their own processor to replace Qualcomm and gave up because of those issues. They even gave up on their own ISP, the Marisilicon X, which gave the phone better low light capabilities. It was never as good as Vivo for video but it was better for photos. Right now Oppo is like Xiaomi 14 Ultra, the best hardware on the sensors side but they lost that edge that made them compete with X100 Pro. Of course, if you are not bothered by Chinese software and you want a really great phone, the Find X7 Ultra is still that. You can get it for 880€ and it has all the european bands that the Chinese X100 Pro and Xiaomi 14 Ultra are missing. The cheapest I've seen the X100 Pro global version is 1015€. You can find the S23 Ultra for 950€, but the camera hardware is not nearly as good. Sorry for talking about Europe, but that's what I am familiar with, S23 Ultra prices might be lower.

    Awesome video. Juan how does the x100 manage raw and large res/50 mp photos?
    One thing I'm incredibly impressed with my px 8 pro is it's ability to spit out a balanced 50mp raw file with no visible edge distortion or discoloration. My 11 ultra, as impressive as the sensor was, used to manage that very poorly, also the 200 mp samples from s23/24 I see online are cringe.
    I imagine this was a processing issue, do the modern 1-inchers fare better in the regard?

    When you review phones that arent designed for the US (ie. Vivo, Xiaomi, etc), what carrier are you using? I've found most ATT, Verizon are whitelisting only "certified" phones (ie. phones they make money on). T-mobile is the only place that I seem to still be able to use my Huawei P30 Pro. Most phones don't include LTE band 71 which is fairly important for T-mobile. Yes, some bands are supported but reception is noticeably worse. Plus you can't benefit from carrier aggregation.

    As a first time viewer on this channel and having watched a ton of X100 pro videos on youtube, I must say I didn't expect this kind of analysis of the phone's hardware, I was actually searching for it. The comparision of the video rendering between the Snapdragon and the Mediatek is surely an eyeopener. Other youtubers usually read out specs and stat the obvious geekbench, antutu scores etc etc which I can find in an article if I google too, which makes the video boring and doesn't actually show true capabilities except from the camera.
    About the 4K video rendering, are those shot in 4k 30 and did you apply any filters and effects and other stuff? Can you make a video showing if we can edit 4K60 videos in capcut? Thanks a lot for the indepth analysis. Keep it coming. 👍

      My sample videos are shot from a Panasonic lumix g85. 4K/30 at 100Mbps, and then rendered at 50Mbps. So the phone is also taxed with some compression work.

Just wanted to know if the phone could handle 4k60 editing because that's where even the PC starts to stress out, if a phone could do some quick cuts and compress and add effects on a 4K60 timeline, then that's absolutely nuts. :) I use capcut so I wanted to know about it, actually I wanted to know only about the 4k60 irrespective of application.
