Go back to the Xiaomi 15 or move to the Vivo X300?
Hey!
I used to have a Xiaomi 15 and I was thrilled with it, but it gave me two issues: the same video lag I already experienced with the Xiaomi 13, and a CPU failure.
Because of that, I bought a second-hand Vivo X200 Pro. The phone is amazing, but it’s huge; it doesn't fit in my pocket, which is a dealbreaker for me. Since I'm still within the return window, I'm considering two compact options: going back to the Xiaomi 15 for 450€ or stepping up to the Vivo X300 (base model) for 610€.
I’ve been researching for days and I can’t figure out if that price difference is worth it. I'm seeing very mixed reviews about the X300. The camera is crucial for me: I use it to record my DJ sets and I love photography, especially using the 3.7x zoom (the one on the X200 blows me away), and ideally, shooting in Log profile.
What do you guys think?
Thank
