Here is a detailed look at everything the two phones offer.
- Both Vivo X100S and X100S Pro run the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chipset built on a 4nm process and clocked at up to 3.4GHz.

Vivo X100S and X100S Pro Full Specifications
Display and Design
Both the Vivo X100S and X100S Pro feature a 6.78-inch Full HD+ AMOLED punch-hole display that operates at a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The key design difference between the two is the panel shape: the standard X100S ships with a flat display, while the X100S Pro uses a curved screen for a more premium in-hand feel.
Processor and Performance
Under the hood, both handsets are driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ octa-core processor, manufactured on a 4-nanometer process node and capable of reaching a peak clock speed of 3.4GHz. This chipset places both phones firmly in flagship territory, ensuring smooth multitasking, gaming, and AI-driven features.
Camera System
On the selfie side, both models share a 32MP front camera designed for sharp portraits and video calls. The rear camera setup is where the two phones diverge:
- Vivo X100S: 50MP main sensor + 50MP ultra-wide angle lens + 64MP periscope lens with 3x optical zoom.
- Vivo X100S Pro: 50MP main sensor with OIS + 50MP ultra-wide angle lens + 50MP periscope sensor with 4.3x optical zoom.
The Pro model's optical image stabilisation (OIS) on the primary sensor and the higher zoom ratio on the periscope lens give it an edge for photography enthusiasts. Browse the full Vivo phones lineup to compare these cameras against other models in the range.
