\n\tThese are the first Vivo phones to run OriginOS outside of China.\t<\/figcaption><\/p><\/figure>\n

Vivo\u2019s flagship X300 and X300 Pro only launched in China two weeks ago<\/a>, but they\u2019re getting an international release faster than we\u2019re used to from Vivo. Today, the company announced that both phones are going on sale outside China, including a handful of European countries, and bringing with them OriginOS \u2014\u00a0Vivo\u2019s previously China-only Android-based operating system.<\/p>\n

OriginOS debuted in China<\/a> back in November 2020 and is now on version 6.0. For reasons best known to itself, until now Vivo has kept Origin in China, leaving international buyers to use its older (and despicably named) Funtouch OS. It has never been fun to touch, with a drab design, relatively basic features, and often extensive bloatware.<\/p>\n

OriginOS is comparatively colorful and slick. This version has been updated with a more customizable lockscreen, including depth effects and basic widgets, along with a \u201cDynamic Glow\u201d design that has more than a little Liquid Glass<\/a> to it. Still, it\u2019s a welcome upgrade.<\/p>\n

I ran down the X300 and X300 Pro\u2019s impressive specs in detail when they debuted in China<\/a>, so I\u2019ll keep it simple here. Both have big silicon-carbon batteries<\/a>, though the 6,040mAh and 6,510mAh capacities lag a little behind recent releases from rivals Oppo<\/a> and Xiaomi<\/a>. The cameras are the bigger draw, especially the Pro\u2019s 200-megapixel telephoto camera, and both models are compatible with the 2.35x Zeiss telephoto extender that launched with the X200 Ultra<\/a> earlier this year. These are likely to be two of the best phones for photography on the market.<\/p>\n

In Europe, the X300 series will be available in Austria, Spain, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Italy. The X300 starts from \u20ac1,049 (around $1,200), with the Pro available for \u20ac1,399 (around $1,600).<\/p>\n
