Why is the 1TB variant missing in India? And is the USB 3.2 “solution” actually practical?

I’ve been seriously considering the Vivo X300 Ultra (with the photography kit), but there’s one major concern:

Why is the 1TB variant not available in India?

We’re only getting up to 512GB, which feels limiting — especially for people shooting:

- 4K/8K video

- RAW photos

- ProRes / LOG workflows

Storage fills up very fast in real-world use.

Vivo’s justification:

They seem to be pushing the idea that:

«“USB 3.2 fast transfer solves the storage issue.”»

Check their technical specifications pic added here.

My questions (looking for real user input):

  1. Is USB 3.2 actually fast enough in real workflows?

    - Can it handle large 4K/8K video dumps without frustration?

"Vivo claims 40 gb in 1 min transfer " how authentic ,when paper sounds in reality

  1. How practical is external storage on a phone?

    - Carrying SSD/pendrive everywhere feels inconvenient

    - Does it ruin the “mobile photography” experience?

  2. Thermals & stability:

    - Does long USB transfer heat up the phone?

    - Any throttling or disconnect issues?

  3. Why not just give 1TB?

    - Other markets get it

    - Flagship price but limited storage feels like a compromise

My concern:

This feels like a workaround being marketed as a feature.

I’d rather have:

Internal 1TB storage

than

Dependence on cables + external drives

Would love honest opinions from:

- X-series users

- Mobile videographers

- Anyone using USB-C external storage regularly

Is this a real solution… or just marketing spin?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Shot some moving subjects recently — a dog with its tongue out mid-motion and even a flying raven 🐶🐦‍⬛and walking 🐈 cat

All photos were captured at 35mm, including fast action moments with very short timing — especially the dog’s tongue movement, which was tricky to freeze cleanly.

Also added multiple shots of flying/moving subjects to really test motion handling.

Curious to hear your thoughts:

Do you think this was shot on the X300 Pro or the X300 Ultra?
