Vivo debuted the X200 series of flagship smartphones in China. The lineup consists of the Vivo X200, Vivo X200 Pro, and Vivo X200 Pro Mini. But a new entry in the series called the Vivo X200S is set to launch soon. So here’s everything we know about this upcoming model.
1. Vivo X200S: Design & Display
One of the first reports of the Vivo X200S surfaced back in November 2024 with rumors still going around. While none of these has confirmed its design, it will likely follow a similar design philosophy as the other three X200 series models. So the rear will likely have a large circular camera module surrounded by a glass panel and metallic frame.
It should bring an IP rating for water and dust resistance for better protection against the natural elements. Not a lot is known about this phone, but the Vivo X200S could arrive with major design changes. This could include a redesign of the lens ring surrounding the rear cameras.
The first rumor revealed a bunch of key specifications like its display. On the front, it sports a 6.67-inch flat LTPS OLED screen with a 1.5K resolution. We can also expect a high refresh rate as well. So this device might be more in line with the base X200. A previous leak claims that the phone would house an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner as well.
2. Specifications
According to known tipster Digital Chat Station, the Vivo X200S is equipped with the Dimensity 9400 Plus chipset. To recall, the rest of the Vivo X200 series models arrive with the regular Dimensity 9400. So it would likely offer slightly better performance than the rest. This device will likely also be priced somewhere between the Vivo X200 and Vivo X200 Pro.
For photography, the Vivo X200S is expected to feature a triple camera setup that may include a 50MP primary camera along with a periscope telephoto shooter and ultra wide angle lens. It is unclear if this variant would come with Zeiss lenses like the other X200 series smartphones.
Unfortunately, the exact capacity of its battery is still unknown, but the X200S would likely pack a high-capacity silicon battery that promises better durability and efficiency just like the other three models. Just like the X200 Pro and X200 Pro Mini, fast charging for both wired and wireless modes could also make a return here.
3. Rumored Launch Timeline
As of right now, the launch timeline for the Vivo X200s is still at large. However, the brand may debut the phone around six months after the X200, which was first unveiled back in October 2024. So it could arrive as a flagship model with mid-cycle refresh around April 2025. This is still speculation at the moment, so take this news with a pinch of salt and stick around for more updates.
