Vivo X300 Ultra Delivers 4K120 Video as Autofocus Stumbles in Fast-Motion Tests

  • 4K30 Dolby Vision test footage showed the Vivo X300 Ultra delivers highly detailed video and strong stabilization, even under rapid pans and heavy shaking.
  • OIS plus EIS kept performance roughly on par with Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Ultra, while Vivo also supports 4K120 across all focal lengths, 120 fps in Dolby Vision and 10-bit Log, and up to 8K capture.
  • 14 mm-to-230 mm shooting gave videographers broad range in testing, with clips recorded at 0.6x, 1.5x, 3.7x, 7.4x and 10x zoom.
  • Fast running shots exposed the main weakness: autofocus struggled to lock reliably during quick movement, including in footage captured with Vivo’s Film Look mode.
  • New Pro Video controls for white balance and ISO, plus Film Look and Film Style profiles, position the phone as a serious video tool despite that focus limitation.
Why does the Vivo X300 Ultra’s advanced AI camera fail at autofocus during fast-paced action?
Do the X300 Ultra's pro manual controls make its autofocus issues irrelevant for creators?
