A Design Inspired by Professional Cameras
The Vivo X200 Ultra, known internally as the “V-camera,” is being marketed as more than just another flagship smartphone. The executive mentioned that its design and internal features are strongly influenced by high-end camera designs. The phone has a large round camera module that holds three Zeiss prime lenses — an upgraded 85mm APO telephoto lens, a 14mm ultra-wide lens with the biggest sensor in its class, and a traditional 35mm lens for capturing documentary-style images. All lenses come with Zeiss T* coating and OIS.
Advanced Video Capabilities
Not just great for photos, the video options include full-focus 4K at 60fps with 10-bit Log, along with cinematic 4K at 120fps. There is a new physical camera control button and a customizable zoom flash system that allow for DSLR-like portrait photography. A fourth camera sensor has also been hinted at, but details are still under wraps.
Exceptional Features and Performance
In addition to its impressive cameras, the X200 Ultra will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and have a 2K Zeiss Master Colour display with circular polarizer eye protection. It will also feature ultrasonic fingerprint scanning that works with wet fingers, a sizable battery with wireless flash charging, and more. Vivo claims that this device will be more than just a “concert camera” and will excel in capturing large events such as sports and nature. The X200 Ultra will be available in red, silver, and black.
The X200 Ultra is expected to launch alongside several other devices on April 21 in China. However, details regarding its global release remain unclear.
