vivo X200 Ultra debuts with an add-on lens, X200s tags along with a huge battery

21 April 2025
Both phones are available only in China.

Sort by:

I don't know what to call the camera protrusion thing at the back. It's HUGE !
I also saw that they compared the thing to an A6700 during the presentation, are they serious ?

    When will vivo release IQOO 13 pro ? and will be release with global version or not

      So this enormous brick can only be imported?

      Oof, just another phone designed to be functionally crippled outside China, enjoy garbage reception, zero warranty safety net, software hell packed with spyware and instant resale value death.

      It's a premium-priced headache built on compromises, proving you value hype over actual usability and security. Along side, Vivo's horrible software update policies.

      Buy phones meant for your market, unless you enjoy expensive paperweights.

        Beautiful phone, but the software is crap, a blatant copy of everything iOS has, even the button to raise and lower the screen brightness is identical to the iPhone's True Tone... Just for that reason, it's not worth importing a phone from China... It's a shame because Chinese hardware is far ahead of what Samsung and Apple offer.

          JURE 75, 21 Apr 2025I saw it in their presentation and also in a YouTube video.... moreI wonder if they could add it with the future updates...

            According to Vivo, they use the Samsung HP9 for the periscope camera. But I would find it interesting to see a periscope camera with a 200 megapixel Quad Bayer sensor without Quad Pixel autofocus instead of a Tetra²pixel sensor with Quad Pixel autofocus.
            I am not sure, but I imagine that 200 megapixel dual pixel sensors are not possible currently as this would require a pixel area of 0.56micrometerx0.28micrometer (basically a 400 megapixel sensor).

              The title says huge battery but 6200mAh is not that big its a standard size for the mainstream now, I thought its gonna be like 10000mAh battery

                      Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've also seen on X that its Camera Control button is a 2-stage shutter key just like the one on Xperia. If you're the type of person who prefers a physical shutter button on a phone (I don't because it introduces a lot of shake), then this should be good news because you can most likely use it to lock the focus, not just for capturing a photo.

                            I'm interested in how the new "Classic Negative" filter (It's most likely Fuji's Classic Neg. inspired LUT, albeit unofficial) alters the look of the photos. GSMArena, when you review X200 Ultra, could you test that mode along with the usual Zeiss Vibrant, Zeiss Texture and Zeiss Natural? Cheers.

                              Zuzuz, 21 Apr 2025Giztop and Tradingshenzen are the best stores now I'd recommend Tradingshenzen, reliable and cheaper.

Pretty much all manufacturers resort to some sort of machine learning algorithms, and those add "faux" details can be generally disabled (Such as AI upscaler used for a long-range digital zoom on Oppo phones).

That would still be a great price tho.
