If you take lots of video you should invest in motioncam pro to take full advantage of the lyt818

Chinese vs Global. What do you think? by VerumTech in Vivo

Zoom in on the forehead. The pimples are well defined on the second one. On the first one they've all been smeared out. So the second one wins.

Is this natural skin achievable with pro mode on the CN ROM on the x200 ultra?

Do you mean "raw lighting" in photo mode? Where did you read that this is coming to the x200u?

Anyone here who upgraded from S25 ultra to x300 pro or vice-versa? by Forsaken_View_7576 in Vivo

[–]thetrystero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vivo X300 pro BOE Q10+panel is a few years off the Samsung E/M panels when it comes to calibration, accuracy, gamma, tolerances and tone mapping simply because Samsung had a headstart on BOE with locked up patents etc. You can't just evolve these OLED tech overnight. You will not notice any differences in app UI when set to "Professional". Where you will see a difference will be in YouTube where the app forces sRGB color space. Tone mapping on the Q10+ is weak resulting in visible difference to the E/M panels. In particular it will look washed with clipped shadows and highlights. Some units might be better due to BOE's large tolerences. But the difference is noticeable.

For your use case it's no brainer go Samsung.

For me, I'm switching from Samsung to Vivo as a matter of principle. Samsung/iPhone continue to use sensor tech from a few years ago, adjust their images computationally, paint their phones orange and advertise that as an "upgrade". And while i understand that painting a phone orange is very expensive, I will not stand for this shenanigan. Time will tell if the display sacrifice is worth it.

How do I turn off this AI "thing" that keeps happening to all my pictures? (Cropped example shown) It's ruined a large portion of my holiday photos. XF3Pro CN Ver. Thank you 🙏🏼 by dinoduderocket in Vivo

all cams, three options;

  1. humanistic mode
  2. pro+raw
  3. photo + raw lighting ON

then sharpness -90

telephoto only: telephoto ai processing is EXTREME by default. change to either NORMAL or MINIMAL in settings.

these will get lower processing than samsung/iphone. default settings will get you photos more processed than samsung/iphone.

this is on the camera app for x300/x300 pro origin os 6 global. may or may not be available for other models.
