Vivo today unveiled its latest flagship-tier device, the X200s, in China. The phone is powered by MediaTek’s freshly unveiled Dimensity 9400 Plus chip and offers a spec sheet that ticks the boxes for a flagship phone in 2025.
Vivo X200s Overview
The front of the X200s is a 6.67-inch flat OLED panel sourced from BOE (Q10 substrate). It’s a 1.5K screen (2800 x 1260) which refreshes at 120Hz, has 2160Hz PWM dimming, and a peak brightness of 4500 nits. The panel remains flat with minimal bezels all around.
Internally, the X200s is one of the first phones to ship with MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 Plus. It’s an overclocked version of the regular Dimensity 9400 with 20% improvement in Agentic AI performance. This is paired with LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, and available in up to 16GB RAM and 1TB configurations.
As for the battery, it comes with a 6,200mAh cell supported by 90W wired and 40W wireless charging. Vivo is still using its dual-cell charging architecture here, like the other X200 series phones.
The camera setup is also familiar here. On the back, there’s a 50MP Sony IMX921 sensor with OIS and Vivo’s in-house VCS 2.0 color system. That’s joined by a 50MP ultrawide (Samsung JN1) and a 50MP periscope telephoto (IMX882) offering 3x optical zoom and OIS. The front camera is a 32MP unit (Samsung S5KKD1), which is standard fare for Vivo’s upper-end lineup.
Out of the box, the X200s runs Android 15 with OriginOS 5 layered on top. The fingerprint sensor is ultrasonic and embedded under the display, while other extras include laser autofocus, a flicker sensor for camera stability, dual speakers, and IP68/IP69 ratings for water and dust resistance.
Connectivity is about as complete as it gets. The phone includes Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, an IR blaster, and an x-axis linear motor for haptics. Vivo is also touting its “kilometer-level network-free communication” for X200s. It’s a network-free innovation that allows users to connect over several kilometers without relying on the mobile network, though that’s likely to be a China-specific feature.
As for the dimensions, the X200s measures 160.1 x 74.29 x 7.99mm and weighs either 203g or 205g, depending on color. Speaking of which, Vivo is offering the phone in four options: Light Purple, Mint, White, and Black.
