Received a video from a friend via Whatsapp earlier this week featuring flagship smartphones with the best cameras, about 8 or 10 phones altogether. The top 2 appears to be the Xiaomi 13 Ultra and Vivo X90 Pro Plus.

After further investigation on Youtube comparison videos it appears that the Vivo X90 Pro Plus camera's performance is better than the Xiaomi 13 Ultra. The Vivo has a Carl Zeiss lens while the Xiaomi has a Leica lens, both come with 1" sensor. Looks like the camera in flagship smartphones these days has surpassed that of a standalone compact camera.

Does anyone here own the Xiaomi 13 Ultra or Vivo X90 Pro Plus yet? What is the price of the Vivo X90 Pro Plus and has the stores here start selling this phone? I know that Xiaomi has started selling the 13 Ultra in the stores for RM5199 if I'm not mistaken.

According to dxo mark those 2 very low ranking .

According to some, DXO Mark's ratings are not reliable anymore hence can't be taken seriously. In other words they don't represent the actual quality or performance of the cameras in smartphones. The sample images and video comparison on Youtube are real life samples where people can view and judge. The ratings are just numbers.
