Vivo has scheduled a launch event on October 14th for the X200 series. This year’s lineup is expected to include a new compact model, likely named the Vivo X200 Mini. A reliable tipster has now revealed details about the phone’s camera specs.

According to insider Digital Chat Station (DCS), the Vivo X200 Mini might pack a triple-camera setup headlined by a 50-megapixel main camera. 

This primary module reportedly uses a Sony IMX06C sensor with a large 1/1.28-inch size and a wide f/1.57 aperture. It appears to be a new image sensor from Sony as there are little to no details available about it. It could be making its debut with the Vivo X200 series.

Backing it up is a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 ultra-wide lens for capturing large landscapes or group photos. And we are likely to get a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 periscope sensor with a 70mm focal length and an f/2.57 aperture for zoom shots. 

DCS suggests the telephoto module should offer up to 10x hybrid zoom and also macro capabilities. 

Aside from this, previous leaks reveal that the X200 Mini will be powered by the Dimensity 9400 chipset, the same as the X200 and X200 Pro. Fueling the device could be a silicon battery with 5500mAh or 5600mAh capacity. Leaks suggest it will also have support for wireless charging. 

On the front, we might see a 6.3-inch display with 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. 

However, an earlier report suggests that the Vivo X200 Mini may have a few shortcomings compared to its predecessor. Specifically, it might use a short-focus optical fingerprint sensor instead of an ultrasonic one, which may not be as advanced as those found in some competing devices.

Nonetheless, we are expecting it to be a more affordable model in line, so if Vivo prices the device rightly, it shouldn’t be as big of a deal.

Vivo is gearing up to unveil its next generation of flagship smartphones soon. The Vivo X200 series is expected to bring cutting edge tech for improvements in performance, photography, and more. So here’s a detailed roundup of everything you can expect from the upcoming premium phones.

Design & Display

Vivo unveiled the X100 series with a design that blends glass with metal for a premium build. So we can expect the Vivo X200 lineup to offer a similar body as well. Leaked schematics have also offered us an idea of its design. The Vivo X200 can be seen with a massive circular camera island on the rear, similar to its predecessor.

Recently, even the front design was revealed in fresh renders which showcased ultra slim bezels on all four sides and a center aligned punch hole cutout. Two series are expected to feature an IP68/IP69 rating for water and dust resistance.

It is still unclear how many models Vivo will launch in the X200 lineup. It is expected to launch the X200, X200 Pro, and X200 Ultra. However, the Vivo X200 Ultra could be announced later on. So for now, let’s stick to the base and Pro variants. Vivo’s base X200 is expected to be a compact flagship phone like the Xiaomi 14.

It will sport a 6.3-inch flat OLED panel with a 1.5K resolution. We can also expect HDR and high refresh rate. Meanwhile, the the Vivo X200 Pro will feature a tall 6.78-inch OLED panel, which may offer a higher 2K resolution, high refresh rate, and other top notch features. The X200 was rumored to have an optical fingerprint scanner, while the X200 Pro may offer an ultra sonic sensor.

Hardware

Vivo is rumored to launch the X200 and X200 Pro with MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 9400 SoC. Meaning, we can expect top notch performance from these devices. On the other hand, the Vivo X200 Ultra could arrive with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. A GeekBench listing showcased the synthetic benchmark performance of the Pro model with the Dimensity 9400 along with 16GB of RAM.

The vanilla model may be powered by a sizeable 5,500 or 5,600mAh battery pack, while the Pro could pack a larger 5,800mAh cell. The lineup might offer 90W wired fast charging as well as wireless fast charging. The Vivo X200 series is confirmed to run on the Android 15 OS based Origin OS5 custom skin out of the box.

Camera

Talking about the base model first, Digital Chat Station claimed that the Vivo X200 will pack a triple camera setup. This will consist of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX921 primary camera with an f/1.57 aperture and a 1/1.56-inch camera sensor size. It is coupled with a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 ultra wide lens and a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 (or LYT-600) periscope telephoto camera with an f/2.57 aperture and 70mm focal length. The leak adds that it will offer a 10x fusion super resolution algorithm (possible 10x hybrid zoom).

The X200 Pro is also rumored to have a triple camera setup with a similar senors, but its periscope telephoto shooter may be a 200-megapixel sensor with even more advanced zoom capabilities. Vivo’s X200 series will likely pack a custom sensor, imaging chip, and a chipset with Blue Crystal technology as well. Camera samples of the X200 surfaced online, which you can check out above.

Launch Date

Vivo has officially confirmed that it will announce the X200 series in its home market in China next month. The launch date is set for 14th October 2024, with the official unveiling planned in Beijing, China. The October launch period will also pit it against the OnePlus 13 and Xiaomi 15 series. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stick around for more updates.

Vivo is gearing up to unveil its next generation of flagship smartphones, the X200 series, on October 14th in China. Ahead of the official announcement, the smartphone has surfaced on China’s 3C certification database. 

The 3C listings reveal three upcoming Vivo phones with model numbers V2419A, V2405A, and V2415A. All three entries support 90W fast charging. 

Based on industry speculation, the V2405A is believed to be the base model, X200. The V2415A, on the other hand, remains less clear. It could either be a more compact “Mini” variant, or a “Plus” model offering a slight upgrade over the standard X200. Finally, the V2419A aligns with expectations for the top-of-the-line X200 Pro.

Vivo X200 Pro Geekbench

Further details regarding the X200 Pro have surfaced through Geekbench, a popular benchmarking platform. The listing confirms the phone’s processing power will be driven by MediaTek’s upcoming Dimensity 9400 chipset, paired with 16GB of RAM. 

However, the listed benchmark scores for single-core and multi-core performance (1531 and 6168) seem inaccurate, as they are unusually low, even falling behind the Dimensity 9300 found in Vivo’s previous flagship series. 

The Geekbench listing confirms the details of the Dimensity 9400, though. It aligns with the processor specs shown on the benchmarking site earlier this week.

The upcoming flagship SoC has an octa-core CPU with a single high-performance Cortex-X5 core running at 3.63 GHz, three Cortex-X4 cores at 2.80 GHz for additional power, and four Cortex-A725 cores at 2.10 GHz for handling everyday tasks.

Besides the Pro model, the vanilla and Mini/Plus model is also expected to share the same chip. 

Vivo X200 series specifications

The base Vivo X200 is expected to feature a 6.3-inch flat OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 1.5K resolution. It will have a 50-megapixel main camera with a 22nm Sony sensor, a periscope lens with 3x optical zoom, and an ultrawide lens. The device will be powered by a 5,500mAh or 5,600mAh battery and will support both wired and wireless charging.

The X200 Pro, in contrast, is likely to come with a curved 1.5K resolution display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Its rear camera setup will include a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, a 50-megapixel primary sensor (potentially the same 22nm Sony sensor), and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens. The Pro model may also feature a larger 6,000mAh battery, water resistance (rated IP68 or IP69), and an improved X-axis motor for enhanced haptic feedback.

The Mini variant is also expected to have a 1.5K resolution display, a 70mm periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and a 5,500mAh or 5,600mAh battery.
