>>> Not a hardware issue, but a skill issue on your part for simply not choosing manual mode or a third party app.
Tell me something... if your default music player sucks at a particular thing, will you keep using it or switch to another app?
The playstore exists for a reason.
"If the phone sucks in the default app, the phone sucks"
>>> Only in some situations in video (eg: panning). It's clear you just hate Oppo because of your bias for Vivo.
"The Vivo has a functioning default app that produces the best results out of all default apps"
>>> Vivo has it's own share of issues on it's default app .
Even my current Xiaomi 15 Ultra does.
But once you learn how these cameras click pictures, you quickly develop workarounds, unlike you who keeps whining based on auto mode comparisons you saw online.
By the way, let me clarify... these three are all better than the rest of the flagship phones.

Why are these chinese "Ultra" phones so insanely expensive outside of China ? Do they actually want to compete with Samsung and Apple or just care to take money from a few die-hard fans ?
It seems like they've already given up about becoming popular in the west

Vivo X300 Ultra Zeiss 200mp Optical zoom 3.7x but super large sensor 1/1.4" for excellent digital zoom
this shining bright at the Concert up to 25x with quality video output,
closed match rivals to Oppo Haselbad X9 Ultra, Right behind Huawei Pura 90 Pro Max.
However, as overall, this is most well rounded Combo for camera and video,
without external lens attached yet,
largest image sensor range for normal, telephoto and ultrawide camera too.
Samsung S26 Ultra, Honor Magic 8 Pro, iPhone 20 also cannot match.
if use with external lens, this is superb.
but not all concert allows.

Aiman90, 3 hours agoLook at Oppo's photo from their current generation of Find.. Best uw photo still belongs ... moreYeah, find X6 Pro is one of the best phones ever made. The cameras are jaw dropping, portraits were best in the business, battery was good and charging was otherworldy as well. Just a top notch phone. And I absolutely LOVED the orange colour.
Still though the new vivos easily beat the oppo's uw cam, ofc the colour science and processing is down to personal preference but my x200u gives me confidence in my UW cam, which im sure is something find x6p owners can say as well.
Also, even before the updates I was saying that the Find X7U tamed the LYT-600 better than the X100U lol, i just fell in love with Oppo's approach. It's indeed a massive shame that they have nearly best in class processing but they choose to overdo it. How do you have the most perfectly cooked steak but you douse it in 2 liters of ketchup? That's how I feel about what Oppo is doing now.
AI was there for a long while btw but now it's just getting ridiculous.

Best uw photo still belongs to FX6P.. and yes, after several OTA camera updates, their FX7U even topped my X100U.. But since FX8 series, they have been going downhill.. Sad to watch, but AI's influence on phone cameras is almost everywhere..

The final score seems to be a stretch, considering the poor battery life and lack of buttons etc. It seems they didn't want to put any chinese phone ahead or behind. Furthermore, there is again nothing on AI shenanigans when it comes to camera. Not sure about the credibility of this website anymore.

Ok looks like X9U tele cameras being blurry and upscaled is due to some issues with stabilization if they fix it then X9U is number one cameraphone this year otherwise X300U is way better

xPandamon, 7 hours agoSince every phone here is tested the same way the battery life results are accurate.Yes, accurate for the Smartviser Viser App they use. But imo it's best to look at a variety of battery tests. There are a number of sources that have standard tests and apply the same tests each time but the results can still vary wildly depending on the tests as you can say the same for all of these tests (in your words they would all be accurate if they provide the same test for each phone). There are lots of variances though in battery life. For example in gsmarena's test they set brightness to 200nits but some phones will drop brightness during testing (many phones do this even in manual mode) whereas others will maintain brightness. Some of the more subjective battery life tests or just general comments from smaller youtube channels that purchase the phones can also be valuable as they actually use the phones in ways that may be closer to normal usage for many. For sure smartviser's test is a good reference point but it doesn't hurt to look at other sources that do standard tests and some reviewers who actually guage the battery performance from real world usage as well

Oh and btw 7k mah wouldn't have saved this phone. They're using a cheaper panel compared to the IQOO 15 and the Find X9 Ultra. BOE Q10 Plus, whereas Oppo is using the BOE X3. And the IQOO might be Samsung panel. That's why you see such disappointing browsing but such great video streaming, the 8 Elite Gen 5's media engine is quite efficient it seems. Even the S26 Ultra is great. People forget the importance of an efficient display. The IQOO 15 vs X300 Ultra numbers prove how important the display is.

You didn't look deep enough to notice all that and I use the X200 Ultra so i know how much AI vivo uses, compared to the Oppo the vivo looks realistic and natural despite using a fair share of AI.
Btw you can turn down the sharpening on the Vivo and save that setting. No need to use manual mode. Oh and Oppo has Master mode which produces natural/stylized shots but you wouldn't know nor care about that cus you don't know nor understand much.
If the phone sucks in the default app, the phone sucks. It's not my job to fix the phone. The Vivo has a functioning default app that produces the best results out of all default apps whilst giving you the option to choose a third party one.
Oppo has better hardware now but they can't seem to top the find x7 ultra's immaculate processing. They still have the slow shutter speed or whatever issue resulting in blurry photos in night mode. If you think Oppo keeps things soft now go look at Find X6 Pro and Find X7 Ultra's beautifully processed photos.
The glaze and cope is immense. If you can't see nor care about any of this you're just coping and denying reality, or you just don't know anything.
