The X200 series, consisting of the X200, X200 Pro and X200 Pro mini, will be launched on October 14 at the Beijing National Aquatics Center, also known as Water Cube. The event will be titled “Far Beyond Imaging,” with vivo specifying in a special press release that the X200 series will offer an updated camera experience.
Some of the X200 Pro’s key camera features include a refined 200MP periscope camera with a 135mm focal length and a dedicated telephoto super stage mode. The accompanying examples show impressive results even at 20x zoom.
