vivo X200 Pro (global) review

08 January 2025


Sort by:

238 comments and counting, and here's what I've learned
--this is the best phone ever made
--this phone is terrible
--lens flare renders the camera inoperative
--there is no lens flare problem
--all the statistics are made up and don't matter but also mean everything
Thanks guys, with your help I've decided to purchase the Barbie Flip from HMD, cheers

    Good phone although it takes a lot of hyped specially in zoom , 10x is disappointed from a person using a S23U optical is gives you a real detail.

      Sam, 09 Jan 2025Dude, when are you going to release Vivo X200 review?I was thinking the same. They have never released a review of a standard x series phone in their history as far as I can see. Wonder if this will be a first or if it joins the list of 'in for review' phones that don't actually get reviewed

          babar91k, 09 Jan 2025I dont know why gsm is so biased always praising shamesung ... morevery limited availability.. that is prob the main reason. People are interested and buy things they can easily get. Majority of the chinese phones are not easily available outside of Asia...there you go.

                    xPandamon, 09 Jan 2025Still wondering if it's the chip that isn't that ... moreIt's a 10% battery increase followed by a 15% usage time increase. If anything the chip is more efficient in certain scenarios

                        I dont know why gsm is so biased always praising shamesung and apple. When in real x200 pro is the best flagship right now in terms of Camera, display, battery and chipset.

                        Don't believe their camera reviews you can check youtube for the camera samples and they are the BEST in the world right now!!

                          There was once a time when the Sony Xperia Z Compact carried the bastion of pocketable powerhouses. But as consumer priorities shifted, especially here in the East, smaller phones quickly ran out of favor. Remember how quickly the iPhone “mini” vanished to pave the way for the Plus?One might argue functional limitations are to blame. You need a large battery. The next-gen camera stack needs space. Yet, every so often, some brand pulls a rabbit out of the proverbial hat. This time, it’s the Chinese smartphone powerhouse Vivo.

                                  That’s a lie dude it’s on bar with my iPhone 16 pro. Last year gen was trash I agree between the x100 up to 100 ultra was very weak. X200 pro is a different story

                                      good to see them releasing a proper global flagship. however, it is too oversized for my liking. I expect to see a 6.1-6.3" variant just like in iphone and pixel.

                                        What GSmarena never reviews: haptics. The haptics on this phone are rather weak. Just like for example the honor magic 6 pro. For me a dealbreaker. The haptics make a flagship feel like a flagship.
