These devices are for people who want something but still have really good hardware. Both of these devices are great, for buyers who want a size without losing any of the best hardware features. Vivo is a large Chinese smartphone maker and highlights higher resolution imaging and battery capacity. Meanwhile, South Korean consumer electronics vendor Samsung is hoping lightweight design and extended software updates will attract buyers.<\/p>\n
Both phones feel premium. Samsung makes a very thin device that weighs only 167 grams so it will never hurt your hands or pockets. Vivo builds a slightly heavier body but it gives you better protection. Actually, Vivo uses an IP69 rating<\/a>, which means it survives hot water jets easily. Look, if you work outdoors under the hot Indian sun, the screens will please you. T<\/p>\n he Vivo X300 has a 6.31 inch screen with 4500 nits peak brightness. Samsung gives you a 6.3 inch screen with 2600 nits. Honestly, both screens look very sharp and colorful when you stream videos. I always prefer a brighter screen when I travel in local trains. Samsung uses Gorilla Glass Victus 2 which has a higher scratch resistance rating than Vivo.<\/p>\n Wait, before we get into the specs, you should know that the chip inside depends on where you buy the phone. Samsung gives the Snapdragon chip to the US but sells the Exynos 2600 chip here in India. Vivo uses the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chip which runs cool during heavy tasks. Basically, I did not find any lag on either phone during my daily social media usage. Now, let us talk about the cameras because they are completely different.<\/p>\n Vivo uses a giant 200 megapixel main sensor with Zeiss optics to reduce lens glare. Samsung sticks to a 50 megapixel main camera but adds great dual pixel autofocus. For zoom, Vivo has a 50 megapixel periscope lens while Samsung uses a smaller 10 megapixel telephoto lens. If you like high resolution videos, Samsung lets you shoot in 8K format.<\/p>\nThe processors and cameras offer very different experiences<\/h2>\n
