The Vivo X100 Pro, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC, reportedly experiences thermal throttling, resulting in less than half of its maximum performance. Benchmark tests show that the SoC throttles to only 46% of its maximum performance after two minutes, with core clocks dropping significantly. This performance degradation has been observed by multiple sources, raising concerns about the Dimensity 9300's stability under stress. It should be noted that these CPU stress tests do not reflect real-world usage scenarios.

Fake Samsung 980 & 990 Pro SSDs have been circulating online, with one particular model, the "Samsung 980 EVO 4 TB," being sold on AliExpress for a significantly low price. Upon testing, it was revealed that the SSD performed much worse than a conventional USB stick, with read and write speeds of 36.25 MB/s and 0.84 MB/s, respectively. The fake SSDs had unprofessional packaging, attempted to hide the Samsung branding, and had fraudulent attempts to hide their true identity. This raises concerns about the authenticity of retailers like AliExpress, and consumers are advised to be cautious and avoid falling for such scams.
