For purists and speedrunners, the Vita version of Final Fantasy X holds a specific, somewhat controversial distinction regarding its gameplay mechanics. Unlike the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions, the Vita cartridge was too small to contain both games fully on a single physical media. As a result, Final Fantasy X was on the cart, while Final Fantasy X-2 was a download code (a point of contention for collectors).
However, the Vita version notably retained the "Expert Sphere Grid" from the PAL releases as the default option, offering players more flexibility in character customization earlier in the game—a feature that western audiences initially missed.

While the pre-rendered backgrounds could occasionally show their age due to the small screen's sharpness, the real-time environments—like the sun-drenched Besaid Island or the stormy ruins of Zanarkand—were breathtaking. It was a rare instance where a handheld version rivaled its console counterpart, offering a stable framerate and minimal load times that made the epic 100-hour journey feasible on the go.
