@@SSamYou pretty confused tbh. I felt like the S24 was all round best phone. AI, screen durability, pretty nice camera upgrade. Idk. Maybe im biased bcz i have no clue what vivo 200 has better, gotta check it out.
@ atleast you said you were a little bit biased on Samsung is better most android fans just claim they’re not biased and keep spamming that Apple will never surpass android(yeah this comment might confuse you)
Well apple is its own thing. It’s easier to compare android to android but if you like iOS and apple then quite frankly nothing from android matters to you
@@ShidhantSoni-k5tI mean if you plan to use these extremely expensive phones to the absolute maximum (atleast 7 years)and have a blast with what they are providing, the resale value doesn't even matter.
"King" thats a whole title xdd no phone is kinda because we all have different use for them. And tbh the Vivo can be the phone of the year but lets not fool ourselfs its a chinese phone like Huawei it can happen that all of the sudden it gets banned plus Oppo Vivo Oneplus all the same company behind them 🫠🫠
Yeah, just a bad habit of changing phones, had x100 ultra before it, loved it as well, tho one of the main reasons I loved x200 pro more, is the flat micro curved screen, more pleasant to use, waiting for x200 ultra , i bet it'll be a bomb
The problem with Chinese smartphones like Vivo and Xiaomi is that their software works perfectly out of the box, but after an Android update, you won't have the same experience anymore. I've personally experienced this with OnePlus and Xiaomi phones, where the latest update left the device with bugs that were never fixed. However, after several years with the Galaxy S21 Ultra, everything still runs as smoothly as it did on day one.
And still I bet you that Arun didn't switch to the Vivo as a daily driver. This award to Vivo was just so he could make things different this year. We all know that if given the choice 99% of people would choose the Samsung or the IPhone over the Vivo.
You stole my words man... It's so true!!! Mrwhosetheboss feels more like a noob GenZ oriented channel. Even when he talks about phones, it's amateurish. If you're reading this Arun, where is Mrwhosetheboss? Where's the guy who made a hologram? Where's the guy who investigated phone crashing stories and deadly wallpapers? Where's the guy who used to do explainers? You've become so "I bought this" or "I bought that"... I subscribed you in 2020 after watching your "Can a cheap 2020 Phone beat a 2018 flagship?" Video. You were so outrageously professional and innovative now you've traded those for gimmicks and blown up reactions

I have dedicated my life to reviewing Chinese ROM phones, to see Arun giving companies like Vivo, Xiaomi and Honor the credit they deserve is truly amazing! You are the GOAT my friend!
Actually Vivo brand is very underrated in Europe! I have my Vivo X100 pro with Chinese room and with the origin os 5 I can finally have Android Auto, with an amazing camera and battery! Thumbs up for Vivo. By the way I got the Vivo X100 Pro with 1TB by 760€!!!
True, but it is relatively new (next gen) which directly competes with Xiaomi 15. The Xiaomi 14, was released in early 2024, makes a significant contribution to keeping compact phones competitive for 2024 market.
Can you make a video on midrange and budget phones and suggest them for different people, like people who want better camera or better chip for gaming or better display for content watching... Anyways great video, the new series of house modification is also fun to watch.
Absolutely agree about the camera. Vivo definitely deserves a lot more attention then other brands such as Samsung or Apple. Their smartphone photography is just a next level. I'm using is as a daily driver 😊
I love how Mrwhosetheboss doesn't feel "sterilized" like other tech reviewers do. He feels HUMAN unlike other UA-camrs who feel like an AI is voicing them...
Arun, as much as I understand why you didn't mention specific websites, you could mention that it is actually not that difficult to get vivo x200 pro in the UK or US. There are now multiple websites that ship worldwide and many of them promise no additional tax/customs cost, so the price you see is the price you pay. Delivery to the UK can take like 1 week, so it's not what it used to be with Chinese smartphones.
Favorite video of the year! Also I would loooove a related video where you look at some older phones which have aged well! Good for the second hand buyers. I know you liked the OnePlus 7 Pro and I'm still running that with Android 15. Even goodies like HDR, adaptive charging and newer kernels have been worked in
Hey Aaron… In Apple’s defence, with the control centre you can entirely remove the full screen music player, as well as the pointless second page which has the same toggles just bigger. The whole point is to customise how you like, and including additional pages is apples way to tell you that “look, you can add more pages”
I would really love if you check out Vivo mid-rangers like Vivo v40 and v40 pro also They have also smashed it out of the park with those Both are basically the best cameras in that price bracket with the pro also coming with really fast dimensity 9300+ chip
Im glad that you went the route of looking at all phones instead of UK/US exclusive. It makes the coverage much larger and we get to see many exciting phones! Once the global version comes out, id love to see you do a review of the X200 Pro.
13:06 I knew I made a good choice! I just watched his CMF video one day and then ordered it the next day! Surprised to see my phone on the list! Proud of you Nothing!!!

Whole room quakes as the AIs in all the phones are now terrified that jerryrigeverything has been invited.
This video in a nutshell: this phone would have been a winner, *until* I tested the Vivo X200 Pro...
i guess all of us thought that it's either gonna be Samsung or Apple. But what a twist man.
Congratulations to Vivo X200 pro
Yes congratulations Apple and Samsung are good but we needed another phone to get up there

You should add a "Flagship Killer" category next year.
Do you suggest he should rip off mkbhd's yearly phone awards word for word.
That's midrange
Xiaomi 14t pro does that category well
Flagship killer as a category is dead. No one would buy a shitty new phone over a s22 ultra or similar flagship from 2-3 years ago
Agreeing with others flagship killer category has been dead recently and there haven't been much options lately.
glad to see phones other than samsung and iphone
Bro but resale value for those phones are not good
Samsung resale value is bad too, only IPhones resell well. Samsung S23 Ultra is like $600 in my country.@@ShidhantSoni-k5t

@@ShidhantSoni-k5t Who buys a phone just to sell it? Apple users?
I has always been this way it's just that it's judged wrongly
Shoutout to the vivo X200 Pro from the thumbnail! $50 says that it wins at least 2 categories!
It wins 3 categories, so your bet is profitable!

Vivo finally gets the love it deserves, i also had x200 pro, the battery and camera part are totally true, taking macros on it is a pleasure
Where abouts did you buy it from, I'm mainly seeing people selling it on AliExpress?
had? what happned?
Had? Dont use it anymore?

is level 7 good or bad? i don't watch jerryrigeverything
@@bhoomeerg8045 it is very good
@bhoomeerg8045 All the phones scratch at level 6 with deeper grooves at a level 7, S24U took a step above others

what were you expecting...you saw the X100 ultra🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Because those people are slaved to those company .. I'm glad apple didn't win any award considering how bad their performance this year @@pmpmelo
Smartphone Vivo.
I love this series because you barely talk about smartphones anymore and congrats on 20 mil btw ❤

He really loved Vivo X200 Pro...
Why did you write "Android Awards"?
@@clementhardy Because he didn't choose iPhone in any category, it's a boring phone
There's no iOS phone that won...
With how much Android phones improved, seeing iphone is just simple underwhelming. BORING
That doesn't mean it's an "Android" specifically award. It's a global one with no iPhone.
There's no Motorola either.
I have dedicated my life to reviewing Chinese ROM phones, to see Arun giving companies like Vivo, Xiaomi and Honor the credit they deserve is truly amazing! You are the GOAT my friend!

They did improved a lot with their pixel 9 series.
Letss go my pick would always be the highest end samsung🎉
Samsung im waiting on my s25😢
3:59 was gonna rage comment for leaving out honor but bro came in clutch

Vivo x200 mini is the best compact phone of 2024!
True, but it is relatively new (next gen) which directly competes with Xiaomi 15. The Xiaomi 14, was released in early 2024, makes a significant contribution to keeping compact phones competitive for 2024 market.

2:41 i think it should be Huawei trifold .it also gives more inspirations to other companies 😮😮
Edit: Mom I'm famous
Arun was not impressed with that phone like everyone else I don't know why because I really liked it so yeah that's why
@@rome2040 I dont know, the trifold seems more like a gimmick
To Show off, the Trifold is Nice. But for a usable, nice phone its just horrible
🤣🤣🤣
bro no doubt that screen technology is good but wtf it will be priced at 3lakh INR and it has such a shitty hardware and camera lol
yay something to watch while eatingggg
I though new house would feel off.
But it is still Mrwhosetheboss we know and love.
Maybe it's the camera field of view, I don't know.

yes and the whole point was to make the IOS 18 more customisable

Love the living room setup....can't wait for the next video of the series!
Its crazy how much I look forward to this. These awards coupled with MKBHDs are epic
Thank you for helping me decide.
