In November, Vivo unveiled the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro smartphones in China. Both phones feature the Dimensity 9300 chipset. While Vivo fans were expecting the Vivo X100 Pro+ equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip to go official with the X100 and X100 Pro, the company did not unveil it at that time. Several reports have claimed that the phone has been renamed the Vivo X100 Ultra and is scheduled to debut in the second quarter of this year. Vivo’s Vice President for Product, Huang Tao, confirmed via Weibo that the company will soon launch phones with satellite communication support. This suggests that the X100 Ultra’s launch may not be far away.
Vivo to soon launch satellite communications enabled phones
Several reports have claimed that the Vivo X100 Ultra, which will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, will have support for two-way satellite communication. This will allow the smartphone to compete with the likes of the Find X7 Ultra and Xiaomi 14 Ultra phones that support satellite connectivity.
In remote areas like the outdoors, forests, deserts, oceans, or mountains where traditional communication signals are unavailable, individuals can establish direct connections with satellites using their mobile phones for emergency communication. Satellite connectivity can be a very useful tool in such challenging environments.
According to reports, the Vivo X100 Ultra will have a 50-megapixel LYT-900 main camera with support for variable aperture and OIS. The camera setup is expected to include an ultra-wide lens, a telephoto camera, and a periscope telephoto camera. Especially, the latter is said to offer a 200-megapixel resolution with support for a 4.3x optical zoom, up to a 200x digital zoom, and a focal length of 100mm.
Apart from the Vivo X100 Ultra, the company is said to be working on the X100s series of smartphones. Reports suggest that the X100s and X100s Pro will come equipped with the upcoming Dimensity 9300+ chipset. It is likely that the X100 Ultra and X100s series may debut in May in China.
