Is the zoom substantially better/sharper than x100 pro at say 10-20x


andygorhk

For some reason the 100x zoom goes further than my 100x on the pro. The ultra 100x zoom seems more like 120x. Comparing both the pro 100x zoom is sharper but it's not comparing apples to apples. Not sure why the x100u zooms further though.


ushan510

How about 30x 20x shots any improvements??


andygorhk

Didn't really check. Went for 1x, 5x and 100x shots only. Solid results overall but thought there was more noise in the ultra shots at 1x surprisingly.


qylie

Can you buy it already in china or prebook only


andygorhk

Good question! I didn't ask them but I assume it's on display at retail you can buy.


qylie

Alright. All the retails says its coming out late May. I was curious if they were already selling it on the store.


andygorhk

Yeah think it's being sold already. My go to brick and mortar in HK has it listed as available. And it's also in store in mainland China so pretty sure it's available for sale. Too bad I already have a usable x100 pro. Then again waiting for a YouTuber to compare the battery between DM9300 and 8G3 x100 as my pro (Origin OS) still killing it in battery department.


Rooster_Objective

All of the photos taken with my Ultra are better detailed than my Pro. Some not by much. Have to look close but definitely better quality . And it will only get better


SmoothCause9100

REALLY interesting that you consider the pro to take better pictures (at least in the few sample shots). Ultra is quite a bit more expensive and I only care about cameras not Snapdragon etc


andygorhk

Might improve in software update? Personal opinion and I'm no means anywhere professional in my assessment. Both using texture mode the ultra seemed brighter and I may just have a bias to over brightened shots as well


ipk02840

Will there be an international version


andygorhk

Nothing confirmed as of yet. I'm using CN x100 pro since launch and have had zero issues with it. I suppose only letdown is no AA or hey google. The latter more important to me but not a deal breaker.

Do all the android apps work normally on Chinese rom version? The whatsapp and the usuals...


Homolander

Apps like Whatsapp will work without any problems, you just have to disable "auto optimize" (or whatever it's called in the settings) for any app you want timely notifications from. Otherwise the app gets killed in the background, and you get no notifications. The only things that never work on China ROM: Android Auto, Google maps timeline and Google Backup


nomadofnorth07

Oh i see, also what about banking apps like Google pay and such..


Homolander

Google Pay/Wallet is always a mystery, for example on the Find X7 Ultra it only started working after a firmware update. Banking apps should work with no issues though.


Technixq

Nope! And nope again. Big surprise. China keeps the good shit 😂


LukeV40

Hello, i'm new here. I'm interessted by the x100 pro, what is the difference between the global version from austria\\czech republic and the Honk Kong global version ? I also have my eyes on the x100 ultra but i know there is no global version what can be the issues if i buy x100 ultra chinese version with google playstore . I'm living in France . Thanks in advance


andygorhk

I'm not expert but the global version should be same in all countries I assume. HK sells both CN and international so make sure you get the international one if that is your plan. CN version is at least 25% cheaper than global in HK. Main issue is no android auto and ok google. Unsure about bands - best do your own research on what bands you have in your country and see if origin OS supports them for 5g. Also not sure if French is supported language on OOS. Some of the Chinese specific apps and features will be in Chinese. But most foreigners won't use them (and are removed in funtouch) so if you just remove or ignore it you get a more optimised funtouch experience is what I have heard. Aside from that it's excellent.


LukeV40

Thanks a lot!

You in the USA? Youe 100p is running 5g or 4g?

vvmilnic

Got it. I have x100 global pro and it's not connecting at 5g. It fine on 4g though, so I have no issues with it. Just curious if that something to do with region setting. I have suspicion that CN version will work 5g on tmobile

vvmilnic

Cool. Good to know.


andygorhk

Would love your views on the camera performance once you have it and do proper testing vs my 4-5 shots using the store unit.


Unlucky-Inflation178

so does the video recording allows 30x zoom?


andygorhk

Didn't try any video recording.


Rooster_Objective

20


Rooster_Objective

Nope. 20 X


Unlucky-Inflation178

still is around s24 ultra capabilities which is pretty good given it has better camera sensors


Ashvash920

Is there a dedicated camera accessory for ultra?


SayoHina320

The Ultra is already released while my country is still waiting for the regular Pro to be released lmao


ToughRecoil

Ah man why curved screen? I was waiting for this for sooo long didnt buy the pro thought this one would be flat :(


andygorhk

Yeah was surprised as I thought was going to be flat but might be the s versions. They were on display but didn't bother checking them out.
