The ā€œSā€ branded device will be an incremental upgrade over the existing Vivo X200, which went official in October 2024 in China.

The Vivo X200 has been available in the Chinese market in multiple colors, such as black, white, titanium, and blue. The new leak reveals that the Vivo X200S will arrive in shades, such as black and silver.

The X200 Ultra will be available in black and a new shade. To recall, last year’s X100 Ultra was sold in shades like titanium, white, and grey.

The Chinese tipster has also revealed that Vivo plans to launch the Vivo Watch 4 smartwatch alongside the X200S and X200 Ultra. However, there won’t be S-branded versions of the Vivo X200 Pro Mini and X200 Pro.

The leaker did not share any information about the Vivo Watch 4. This watch will be the successor to the Watch 3, which was announced in November 2023. The Watch 3 came with a round dial, but the Watch GT, which went official in 2024, was Vivo’s first smartwatch with a square dial. It appears that the Watch 4 will continue to house a round dial.

Vivo X300 to sport a compact design like Pro Mini

In related news, a recent Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station hints at initial details about the Vivo X3000, which is expected to launch in Q4 2025 in China. The current X200 series includes three models: the X200, X200 Pro, and X200 Pro Mini. It appears that this year the company will return to launching dual flagship phones, suggesting the lineup will include the X300 and X300 Pro, and there won’t be a Pro Mini offering. As for the X300 Ultra, it may launch in the first half of 2026.

The above leak suggests that the launch of the Vivo X200 Pro Mini was a test to gauge market response for a mini phone with a 6.31-inch screen. DCS has boldly speculated that the X300 will feature a similar-sized screen instead of the 6.6-inch display seen on the X200. Therefore, it is likely that the X300 with a mini display will be marketed as the standard Vivo X300. Hopefully, it will address the shortcomings of the Vivo X200 by offering features such as better cameras and wireless charging.
