Vivo X300 Pro vs Oppo Find X9 Pro: The battle of camera flagships

Vivo just took the wraps off the X300 Pro in India, and it’s the brand’s finest camera smartphone yet. But how is it different from the Oppo Find X9 Pro? After all, both phones come with a similar set of cameras and internals.

They both feature 200MP periscope telephoto sensors and support a teleconverter lens to enhance the overall portrait photography experience. In this Oppo Find X9 Pro vs Vivo X300 Pro showdown, we compare the key specifications and features, letting you know the exact differences between the two.

While most of their specs are similar, the design is what sets them apart. This time around, the X9 Pro ditched the circular camera island for a more Reno-inspired squarish island. The X300 Pro, on the other hand, boasts the Vivo’s circular camera aesthetics that we all love.

Both devices have a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth scrolling. The screen of the X300 Pro, however, is brighter as it peaks at 4,500 nits. The Find X9 Pro’s peak brightness is 3,600 nits. For protection, the X9 Pro boasts Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection, whereas the X300 Pro supports Armor Glass protection.

In terms of durability, they both have an IP68 and IP69 rating for dust and water resistance.
