The much-anticipated X100 Pro is set to make its debut in Europe, marking a release more than three months after its initial unveiling in China. This confirmation comes directly from retailers MediaMarkt Austria and Alza Czechia, both listing the phone alongside its official price tag of €1,199/PKR360817.94 for the variant with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage.
One of the standout features of the X100 Pro is its remarkable camera setup, which left a lasting impression in our review. Complementing this is a stunning 6.78-inch LTPO display and the powerful Dimensity 9300 chipset, delivering an outstanding performance that has garnered attention.
It’s noteworthy that the €1,199 price tag for the X100 Pro in Europe is comparatively higher than in other markets where the device is already available. The cost is set at €990/PKR297923.07, and in China, it is even more budget-friendly at CNY 5,499, approximately €715/PKR215166.66.
Initial indications hinted at the phone’s initial availability being restricted to Austria and Czechia. However, considering the existing patent deal between Nokia and vivo, there are strong indications that this flagship model will eventually extend its reach to additional European countries in the near future.

The international release of vivo’s flagship smartphone, the X100 Pro, has been notably gradual. Initially announced for China in November, the phone swiftly launched in the same month. Following its global debut in mid-December and a subsequent release in Asia earlier this month, it is now on the verge of reaching Europe. However, initial reports suggest that the phone will have limited availability, primarily in Austria and the Czech Republic.
While the X100 Pro is not yet listed on vivo’s regional websites, pricing details have been disclosed. The phone will be priced at €1,199. Although considered a competitive product and likely one of the standout cameraphones in the latter half of 2023, some may find the price higher than expected. Notably, its Asian price translates to €999. The complexity of VAT, logistics, and international pricing intricacies contribute to such variations.
The X100 Pro is available in a single configuration, featuring 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, providing robust performance, especially with the all-big-core CPU of its Dimensity 9300 chipset. The phone boasts a 6.78-inch 1260×2800 120 Hz LTPO AMOLED screen with a 3,000-nit peak brightness.
Its triple rear camera system includes a 50 MP main camera with OIS, a 50 MP ultrawide camera with autofocus, and a 50 MP 4.3x optical zoom periscope with OIS. The device is equipped with a 5,400 mAh battery supporting 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. Operating on Android 14 with vivo’s Funtouch 14 overlay, the X100 Pro presents an impressive feature set.
