Introduction and specifications
The vivo X200 series is now official, and the standard X200 and the X200 Pro are now joined by the X200 Pro mini. However, in this hands-on review we will focus on the X200 Pro.
The X200 Pro is largely similar to its predecessor, the
Of course, the X200 Pro is an all-round flagship smartphone, but the strong emphasis on the camera experience is hard to hide.

The new better video recording capabilities.
Perhaps more importantly, the X200 Pro borrows the excellent telephoto camera from the X100 Ultra. The large 200 MP sensor with 3.7x optical zoom replaces the 50 MP unit of the X100 Pro.
Another important feature of this year’s X200 Pro is of course the chipset. MediaTek’s top Dimensity 9400 chip debuts with the vivo X200 Pro. The SoC is based on the latest 3nm manufacturing process and promises exceptional performance and efficiency.
A new 6,000 mAh battery on board also promises to extend battery life.
The rest of the hardware doesn’t see a dramatic change. The X200 Pro still features an excellent 6.67-inch OLED panel, the same ultra-wide camera and the same selfie camera. There have been some subtle changes to the design, which we’ll discuss in the next section.
