Hi, so it's 2025 and I just bought the Vivo X90 Pro as a used device (used in Europe then shipped to Africa). There's not a single brand new Vivo flagship in Nigeria where I am because Vivo don't sell their flagship devices here which means no warranty. I've admired Vivo flagship since the VIVO NEX from 2018 and always wanted to own one an£ finally did.
NOBODY that has seen me using this phone in my location even knew VIVO made flagship devices. They all though Vivo is a complete joke that makes mediocre entry level and budget phones. But I think it's just ignorance because it's all over YouTube now.
This phone took me by surprise. I'll start by praising the battery life because even though it's a used device from 2022, I'm still getting about 8 hrs on mobile data and about 12 hrs on WiFi only. There's no iPhone or here that can top that (most iPhones here are used even for those who believe they're buying new iPhones), and my friend who bought a Samsung S23 ultra as brand new (I doubt it's new though) a week after doesn't get up to 8hrs on WiFi.
I updated to Origin OS 6 and Android 16 about 5 days after getting it and I've not gotten any issues at all. It runs smoothly.
The Cameras on this phone are so good that I wonder just how good the newer models are. I spent a full day as a photo/videographer with this phone and I was surprised at how it was able to stay cool and maintain good quality for a long time with good battery life to keep it going.
Complaints: The fingerprint sensor isn't the best but I registered the same finger multiple times and it works better now. Claims it has Bluetooth LE but it doesn't work. Display is not LTPO and the ultrawide camera isn't that good. No regional support for the flagship so repairing it will be a Very big problem if anything should happen to it.
Coming from Google pixel 5, this is the best phone I've ever had and I hope I can afford the newer flagship models from Vivo. Also hope Vivo will officially bring their flagship devices here.

I was checking on the Bluetooth connectivity of this phone and came across of what it says it is capable of LE Connectivity. Recently, I tried to pair it with the Sony Inzone Gaming Earbuds
as it only uses Bluetooth LE connectivity and noticed it doesn't pair. Perhaps this phone has no LE connectivity feature .

Does this phone still receive regular security updates? Seems like a good deal in 2024, around the same price as Iqoo 12 and Nubia Z60 Ultra.

To be honest I do not care, for me they are both the same. If I should tell which chipset I prefer, I would say Hisilicon Kirin. Hahaha.

Vinaigre, 19 Nov 2023All right. However you misjudged me because I am not a mediatek fan. Sure, but you never explained why mediatek is somehow better than "overheater" snapdragon lol
All you said was, "oh they overheat cuz I received a mediocre device that had some bugs and I blame it on the chipset for it"

Vinaigre, 13 Nov 2023Maybe. But the overheating happened on several phones so the Sony Xperia was not the only case. Ok, and? You still trying to emphasize the overheating aspect when snapdragon is still the overall better chipset to mediatek. When is mediatek gonna step up their performance to be the best? When does mali and immortalis actually become decent?
Until then, all mediatek is good for is the budget and cheaper market which is adequate enough for the majority.
