The Vivo X200 lineup, launched last year, hinted at an Ultra model slated for 2025. While the release date remains unclear, exciting details about the flagship’s camera setup have recently surfaced. A Weibo leak reveals key specifications, giving us a glimpse of what to expect from this highly anticipated handset.
The Vivo X200 Ultra reportedly boasts a triple-camera system. This includes a 50MP primary camera, a 200MP periscope telephoto lens, and a 50MP ultrawide lens. While the main and telephoto cameras mirror the Vivo X200 Pro, the X200 Ultra distinguishes itself with its ultrawide sensor. A larger 1/2.76-inch sensor significantly enhances light intake, promising higher-resolution images even in low-light conditions.

Furthermore, the primary camera defaults to a 1.5x zoom, approximating a 35mm focal length. The ultrawide lens defaults to 1x zoom, rather than the typical 0.5x or 0.6x. Of course, like other smartphones, users can adjust the zoom level as needed.
Enhanced Low-Light Photography and Impressive Display
While these camera upgrades might seem incremental, the larger sensor size will considerably improve low-light photography performance. Rumors also suggest a 6.78-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a substantial 6,000mAh battery. These specs are impressive, but a key question remains: will the X200 Ultra see a global release?
Vivo has a selective approach to Western markets, and the X200’s absence from the United States raises concerns about the Ultra variant’s availability.
Global Availability Remains Uncertain
The potential of the Vivo X200 Ultra is undeniable, with its enhanced camera capabilities and impressive specifications. However, the uncertainty surrounding its global availability leaves many enthusiasts in anticipation. Whether Vivo chooses to broaden its market reach with this flagship model remains to be seen.
