14 October 2024
Did vivo just make the compact flagship everyone wanted? We think so.

Rex, 15 Oct 2024If i buy it from china can i use playstore ?Yes. You just have to download the playstore apk as it doesn't come pre-installed but nearly all Chinese flagships now come with basic Google services (except Huawei). They don't have Google apks pre-installed though as they can't officially be use in China

    Anonymous, 15 Oct 2024Why does this phone need such a big battery, they should ha... morePersonally I'd much prefer the bigger battery. 700mAh for 7g in weight is a pretty good trade off imo

        Vivo x200 and Vivo x200 pro mini: They don't have 4G B20 = You cannot use it in Europe.
        --> Vivo x200 Pro Mini most interesting because it has nearly same specs as an Ultra/Pro phone (not like Xiaomi or Samsungs models)

        Vivo x200 pro: Cn Model hast 4G B20. You could import chinese version without problems.
        --> Heavy competitors incoming with nearly same price (Honor Magic Pro 7, S25 Ultra, Find X 7 Ultra/Pro). Better wait until reviews are available.

            Why does this phone need such a big battery, they should have made the battery 5000mah and could have saved some weight maybe 180g

              DarlingYext, 15 Oct 2024Yeah, but the base S24 is a joke compared to this.The UI looks like a one ui ripoff

                Looks to be a decent "compact" flagship but that Mini naming is kinda absurd I mean the 200 mini has about the same dimensions as the Pixel 6, 6a, 7, 7a, 8, 8a, 9 Pro...or Xiaomi 12, 13, 14 and nobody would call those Smartphone "mini".

                                      John, 15 Oct 2024 vivo X200 Pro mini or Xiaomi 15 ?Xiaomi 15 will be coming within the next couple of weeks to you'll be able to compare then. There is no doubt that Vivo has better camera hardware in the x200 pro mini especially for the zoom with the far higher quality periscope. Main camera sensor is also likely stronger on the Vivo. However, that's just hardware. Real life could be different. Xiaomi 15 will also increase the battery size significantly this year although I doubt if they'll be able to match the 5,700mAh one
