Vivo is again showing its defenses in the flagship smartphone market by launching the Vivo X300 Pro, one of China's most powerful Android phones. Based on the results of performance tests on the popular benchmark platform AnTuTu, this device managed to score a very impressive score even ahead of its strongest competitor, Xiaomi 17 Pro Max.

A well-known tipter, Sudhanshu Ambhore, shared screenshots of AnTuTu benchmark results for Vivo X300 Pro and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max. In the test, the Vivo X300 Pro powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset recorded a score of 3,956,885 points, slightly higher than the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max which used the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with a score of 3,731,077 points.

This result indicates that the Vivo X300 Pro managed to overtake Xiaomi's flagship in terms of raw performance. Not only at the overall score, this phone is also superior in several categories such as CPU, GPU, and memory performance. However, this advantage is not a big difference, but thin shows tight competition between the two technology giants from China.

Despite losing the total score, Xiaomi 17 Pro Max still shows an advantage in the temperature control sector. Based on the test results, this device runs at a temperature of about 17.2 degrees Celsius, while the Vivo X300 Pro reaches 20.6 degrees Celsius. This means that the Xiaomi cooling system is more efficient in maintaining the stability of the device's temperature during heavy loads.

Both Vivo X300 Pro and Xiaomi 17 Pro Max have just been released, so there is still a chance for each company to improve performance through future software updates.

With this result, Vivo seems ready to shake the dominance of Snapdragon in the Android flagship segment. The fight between Dimensity 9500 vs Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is even hotter and this is just the beginning.
