If the video gets views and people want it yes I’ll try more content like this. My original plan was to make phone cameras test + travel content however it’s crazy expensive and wouldn’t ever cover my costs it’s why we don’t do it.
@@Techtablets No need to go to different countries just idk go to some parks and take videos or something or just walk around the street doing street photography. That'd be cool.
@@kaiserfakinaway5909 Yea He does that already in comparison and review But you are spot on in that we want this type of bloggin' vid that truly shows the shine or lack thereof 👍🏻
Cool channel. I was so close to visiting Japan at one point. I had experience with modeling and in late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the facial likeness role of Leon for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part and I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity to visit Asia.
@4:02 that CPU beer joke 🤣 for mobile nerds only. This format of review is actually very good and I for one would recommend doing this more often. You could go to local Spanish tapas bar and review their cuisine while doing a video test.
That’s a joke for us nerds. Unfortunately however it seems there is very little interest in this format. Only 3k views in 8 hours is a 10 out of 10 video.
@@Techtablets thanks Chris. I could be wrong but I think the title and thumbnail could improve that. (Some good looking food/ladies as the thumbnail with a title that mentions both the tech and food/ restaurant 😀)
Cool - you're the only UA-camr who recommended the Tokyo Metro Pass tickets which are incredibly good value (most say "just get a Suica IC card")... I'll be using them again when I'm over in July...the video quality looks fine to me, certainly better than my ZTE! There's a great craft beer bar up the escalator at Tokyo station (Hitachino)
I’ll check out that craft beer spot. Yes the 24 hour pass I think is the best option if you plan to visit a lot of spots it works out cheaper. People also say that the metro system is hard to navigate. I don’t think so but yes the map is super confusing. I prefer the London underground map style.
You're so lucky to be in Japan! I wish I could go to all of these restaurants and taste the goodies there :) The video itself is so enjoyable to watch, as you're giving the story and showing the country primarily - yet we can see the camera's performance! PS: I did not like front camera and the microphone in the first few seconds sounds like a toy camera lol
Thank you so much!! This style of testing a phone is something I have always wanted to do and planned about 8 years ago. But no brands will pay for my trip 😂🤣 So I paid for this in off as it’s my dreams to see Japan. It was fun and I would love to do more but likely only bankrupt myself.
Love this concept of traveling to other countries and testing out gear there, especially Japan as its my fave country. It would be interesting if you visit their electronic stores and try out some stuff that's particular to Japan. I love Yodobashi Camera and Bic Camera stores when looking at electronics.
It’s been my plan for a long time about 8 years to do travel tech videos like this but unfortunately they don’t do well and it’s rather expensive buying flights on top of the tech.
For some that don't know, the direction/lines on the floor in the subway station will tell you where/direction you need to go, aside the top messages flashing at the ceiling. Kirin Beer= Kirin chipset...LOL Image stabilization at 4k? ...wow, but the front camera+gimbal, night vids...hmmm.... small cute cars = Kei cars. thanks for the review Chris.
Yes also figured that out but it wasn’t always there for the NEX Narita Airport express airport train Tokyo station is so huge underground it’s connected between various buildings I kinda got lost.
Awesome video Chris. I think the x100 ultra is a great camera phone but I'm really happy that i went with the Oppo find x7 ultra. As good with the stills and wipes the floor with the vivo when it comes to video (seriously the video is overlooked with the oppo, imo its the best video on a phone right now even better than the iPhone!)
Great vlog and some amazing nice pictures taken with a phone! However vivo will need to pay more attention to the video quality. We have seen them do better with the pro so let’s see what the updates can do
They released a new firmware and it’s even better than this. You got it! This is why I made this video for the memory and not really the views (it has very few)
This phone is absolutely amazing, and if this is what your voice sounds like through the phone's mic, then you don't need an external lav mic at all because your voice sounds excellent and clear as crystal
I love vivo, and i will love to go to japan. Incredible video, my 2 kryptonites. Please make a camera review while you are there, if you can go to one piece park or nintendo's
I'm glad to see you got some color fringing as well with the zoom lens. I was seeing it a bit at distance with high amounts of sunlight. Is the jitter and possible frame skipping in the native video taken from this or is it YT messing things up?
That boxy car is a kei car or kei for little, and usually those are certified for 33 km per litre of gasolin and the have an special taxation. it would be good to have the same in europe.
Japan vlog always interesting, thanks for sharing. Excellent pictures and zoom shots, only video needs some improvement but overall very usable performance
On a teardown I saw the vivo uses 3 mics in total and 2 being studio quality microphone, I wonder why the microphone recording is still so bad, I just hope overall it improves with the updates the video and the audio. Otherwise this phone is genuinely a technological marvel.
I am curious though: I am on a lookout for a new phone, between Xiaomi 14 Ultra and Vivo X100 Ultra - how do you position them relatively to, say, S24 Ultra?
Thanks for the time and effort you put into all your reviews. I know you test so many smartphones but if you had to pick one for everything which one would you consider? I'll let you pick the top three. Currently rocking the pixel 8 due to its size but when the 9 Pro comes out more likely I'll get it and hopefully the camera lenses are all upgraded.
Hey, i loved this video! Real time testing is fantastic. However, I must say I'm puzzled: the video quality is .. questionable. From stabilisation to ultra wide.. is your phone updated? There's another youtuber, 2megapixel that does these type of real time videos in spanish and he's videos straight out the Vivo Ultra look fantastic. The stabilisation as well as clarity looks very different to yours.. which one would you recommend for video : vivo x100 pro or the Vivo Ultra??? However, I loved this video and Japan is fab. Big 👍 for this video.
I would love to but this video is a flop seems people don’t like it or UA-cam which is a shame if they did well I would make more like this style but at this point no point.
i'm curios for video better vivo x100 ultra or huawei pura 70 ultra? because i have pura 70 ultra but the zoom just 15x and ultra can be 30x. i need for take concert video, can you help me which one better?
Let me correct you right there... those car models you think can't be found anywhere in the world are as available in Africa as Japan. In fact, Japan's Auto is more common in Africa
Thank you. I was unaware and sometimes you see them in New Zealand but it’s rare as they weren’t intended for outside Japan. Only the used ones are exported out to Africa, NZ etc.
That hotel room is really tiny. I would recommend sunroute near takshimaya shinjuku Tokyo and the ones in Osaka is even bigger still. Great vlog. Really enjoyed it, please be a travel vlogger. Is Taiwan the next episode?
Sound quality - OK for me Front camera - I dont use it Rear video - everything good except the horrible stuttering which completely ruin the experiance at 30 fps
@@Techtablets Also the video qu ality isn't) much better than this test.)? This means that the problem still persists. Unfortunately, image and video processing on Android devices is still poor once they are posted on social media.
I can't really understand why Android companies can't get rid of that jitter while recording video. I mean, all that powerful hardware and still a lot of frames are dropped. Can't be that hard to solve.
My belief is it’s the file system and the way it writes and streams the video. But Oppo seems to have almost fixed this as the Find X7 Ultra is very smooth almost zero judder.
@@Techtablets yeah, it's somehow the first thing I notice while watching the videos recorded by mobile device. The rest (sharpness/details, colors, zoom range...) has almost been perfected, it's time for companies to get rid of jitter.
Thank you. Shame it didn't really get many views but I have a new travel vlog style video coming exploring Catania in Sicily and then an eBike launch event I hope people like it. I used the new DJI Osmo Pocket 3.

More of this style video please!!! Quality is acceptable expect the front camera video. Stills look amazing Chris.
@@Techtablets do you think the video on x100 pro better than the video on x100 ultra? Thanks
Absolutely superb camera on the X00 Ultra. Looks straight out of a DSLR or mirrorless camera 📸

Yes it’s about my 2-3rd one only they don’t get views. I did it more for myself to remember this trip.

It is mine and since I was in Taipei I just had to come here. It’s been my dream since I was 10 and had a Japanese teacher aid.
@@Techtablets yes Japan is a must if u r a traveller..
I wish I'd gotten a notification for this. Great video.
Same here seems nobody got a notification. Typical YT.
Good move, Chris! Glad to see that you have tried sth new.
Thanks
Wow.. different style.. Anyway the phone camera is excellent. what matter most is the memory from the vacation
They released a new firmware and it’s even better than this. You got it! This is why I made this video for the memory and not really the views (it has very few)
Very impressed with the camera system, but I did stay for the Tokyo trip in the end :D

Is the jitter and possible frame skipping in the native video taken from this or is it YT messing things up?

based on photos captured is it better than vivo x100 pro now?
Ever so slightly better now
Ah Japan. I'll be there, one day....😭
It’s been my dream to come since I was 10. So don’t give up on it. I was in Taiwan so close so I just had to fly over or I would forever regret it.
Japan vlog always interesting, thanks for sharing. Excellent pictures and zoom shots, only video needs some improvement but overall very usable performance
I think tokyo streets is one of the best places to test low light capabilities with all those shops and buildings and lots of people walking around
Yes it’s great for that just a shame it’s super expensive to get here from Spain it’s not like Vivo paid for this trip 🤣😂
Vivo x100 pro or Ultra. What is your recommendation?
Cool trip.
Enjoy. 👍👍
Thank you, I will
「日本」で「Vivo」の「動画」は最高すぎる
On a teardown I saw the vivo uses 3 mics in total and 2 being studio quality microphone, I wonder why the microphone recording is still so bad,

Just down to software they were not always bad just at times.
Nice vlog! But you should record some videos in Denia, Alicante! 😁
Maybe one day!
Not bad... for selfie videos in dark areas im sure iphone 15 max and samsung s24 U will struggle and get grainy shots too.
Really needs an external light, like a led light for low light.
@4:20 yakitori bar ftw.😂
Yeah 😅😂
I am curious though: I am on a lookout for a new phone, between Xiaomi 14 Ultra and Vivo X100 Ultra - how do you position them relatively to, say, S24 Ultra?
If you care about camera results, stay away from S24U (or at least try it for few days before you buy)
Strong camera. I like it. Only Mic is not the best.
Yes the mic for vlog stuff not so good but behind the camera it was fine.
Nice
Any issues with overheating and frame dropping while filming in 4K/8K?
There are some reports on that
TechTablet a travel vlogger now? Hehe!😅
Wait... you're a Kiwi? Well... I know now.
Yes I am! As for travel vlog camera reviews UA-cam didn’t like this, bad views hasn’t been pushed so that’s the end of that 🥲
3-4 updates and this phone will only be beaten next year. By next Vivo of course
Face color seems to be another issue. Strong red tint.
Yes it’s off but some of the street lights didn’t help.
Great review 👍

Oh, so you are from NZ, not Spain... that makes sense. So many great people come from NZ and Australia.
Yes from New Zealand. But now I’ve lived a good chunk of my life in Spain.
Tokyo is a smart city, prolly better than NY
The video looks jagged, at least on youtube. This is not the first review i've noticed the same issue on

Been. It was great.
Bro whats the price for x100 ultra
Vivo X100s Video quality is awesome but still it stucks in between you can see!
X100 ultra or pixel 8 pro? Camera and video.?
Very good sound, whats problem?
It was good in parts but not in others compared to say my S24 Ultra which dominates in sound with superior mics.

Just in China. It’s working fine for me in Spain here.

Another minor thing. When you zoom into Tokyo station, it’s actually quite bright, no problem for most telephotos.
Thanks for the recommendations. Unfortunately travel vlog and testing phones would be crazy expensive.
Oh yes that is but in general lower lit subjects it’s doing very well.
@@Techtablets definitely, x100u is the top phone right now, makes xiaomi 14u and pura70u look unnatural.

Not long enough I have to fly out tomorrow afternoon. I really need like 2-3 weeks in Japan so much to see.
Hey is this phone sim locked in other countries
I will be in Japan next month, is this phone available to buy there?
Not sure I think just in China and maybe some import place here in Japan has it?
Hello, at this date, is the quality of photos in zoom mode still lower compared to the X100 pro?
No seems better after the last patch
Make a vlog between Iphone 15pro max vs Vivo X100 Ultra please Sir!!!
iPhone will wi there is no need for the video I can tell you that now the iPhone video is better smoother no judder.
4:22 🤣🤣
Hello, nice place you visit😊
I own the phone in 1TB version. What do you think about the ultra wide at night?
Ultrawide isn’t good at light unless nightshot mode. But video bad like all ultrawide at night.
Nice phone but the microphone is not very good
It’s better in some parts but then worse in others.
why the audio like that
Nice😊😊😊
Thanks 😊
5:17 - my garage is bigger than this 😂😂
Yeah it’s tiny but there are smaller!!!!
Even in 4k30 there are terrible frame drops throughout the entire video.
Yes typical Android but seems worse than usual
@@Techtablets Android has nothing to do with it at all. These are bugs specifically for this phone.

Sound quality - OK for me
Front camera - I dont use it
Rear video - everything good except the horrible stuttering which completely ruin the experiance at 30 fps
Yes plenty of dropped frames and judder.

First
👍
I see tons of details as if you were filming with a professional camera
If it’s the main 50mp gimbal camera yes it’s good but the front camera in low light yikes I need a LED light aimed at my face
I can't really understand why Android companies can't get rid of that jitter while recording video. I mean, all that powerful hardware and still a lot of frames are dropped. Can't be that hard to solve.
My belief is it’s the file system and the way it writes and streams the video. But Oppo seems to have almost fixed this as the Find X7 Ultra is very smooth almost zero judder.
@@Techtablets yeah, it's somehow the first thing I notice while watching the videos recorded by mobile device. The rest (sharpness/details, colors, zoom range...) has almost been perfected, it's time for companies to get rid of jitter.

Yes not great in low light
I think oppo fx7u have better crisp quality
Not coming to india😢
Seeing a lot of jitters in the videos
Yes there are some jitters
Typical Android video
Go to a Maid café 😆
Where is it?
I prefer pro model because of the mtk cpu ☺️☺️
The pro is great maybe even better due to more mature firmware
Vivo x100 ultra remindes me about samsung s20ultra alot of talk. But it was a big dissapointment
I think x100 pro is better cost much less
The video has some really serious framerate stability problems.
In low light years
That front camera tho.. Yuck
Daylight it’s okay but low light 😵
why jp?
I’ve been wanting to go to Japan for about 30+ years so finally made it. Very cool place
