vivo X200 Ultra to get a new Action Button

The vivo X200 Ultra is expected to launch in China in mid to late April alongside the X200s, as a recent rumor told us. Today a new intriguing detail about the X200 Ultra has surfaced on Weibo.

Namely, that it will have a new Action Button, placed on the lower part of the right frame. It will primarily serve as a camera button, despite vivo apparently not choosing to call it that - so there's a chance it will be customizable.

The X200 Ultra's triple rear camera setup has once again been confirmed to employ a 50 MP main camera, a 50 MP ultrawide, and a 200 MP periscope telephoto camera. vivo will also pack a new and improved generation of its self-developed imaging chip.

Aside from the X200 Ultra and X200s (which will basically be the X200 but with the yet-unannounced MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset at the helm), vivo will allegedly also release a flagship-level large tablet around the same time.

Some have been combining it with the volume button like Samsung does but since apple used it as a feature not a button now Chinese are also using it

Does not matter if it's Sony, Nokia, Apple, whoever came up with it, it's a great feature to have. They should make that button highly customizable with multiple gestures.

there have been a few that have had a dedicated camera button. Droid X, Lumia 1520 & Kodak Extra for example.
