Vivo seems to be gearing up for an exciting 2025, with leaks revealing the launch timeline of the Vivo X200 Ultra in China and offering insights into the brand’s broader smartphone roadmap for the coming year. The Vivo X200 and X200 Pro have already hit global markets, but all eyes are now on the Ultra variant.
Renowned tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) has suggested that a flagship Vivo smartphone powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset will be unveiled in March or April 2025. This device is widely believed to be the Vivo X200 Ultra, which, if true, would launch earlier than its predecessor, the Vivo X100 Ultra, which debuted in May 2024.
Camera enthusiasts have a lot to look forward to with the Vivo X200 Ultra. It is expected to feature a triple-camera setup, including a 50MP primary sensor (1/1.3-inch) and a groundbreaking 200MP periscope sensor (1/1.4-inch). These high-resolution sensors are similar to what Vivo included in the X100 Ultra and X200 Pro, promising exceptional photography capabilities.
However, Vivo has yet to bring the X100 Ultra to India, and there’s little optimism about the X200 Ultra making its way to the country. The brand’s focus for this model seems to remain centered on the Chinese market.
Vivo’s 2025 smartphone roadmap tipped
In addition to the X200 Ultra, Vivo’s product lineup for 2025 is shaping up to be diverse and ambitious. According to DCS, Vivo plans to introduce several new flagship and midrange devices next year, spanning various categories. It includes a Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered foldable, possibly named the Vivo X Fold 4 or X Fold 4 Pro, could debut around June or July 2025. This timeline marks a shift from the X Fold 3 series, which launched in March 2024.
Vivo is also working on compact midrange smartphones powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 (vs Snapdragon 8 Elite) chipset, appealing to users who prefer smaller devices. A MediaTek Dimensity 9400-powered tablet is reportedly in development. The Vivo X200s series, likely to follow the X100s lineup, could arrive as early as April 2025, accelerating Vivo’s usual launch cycle for its S-branded models.
