Vivo introduced the Y200 GT smartphone featuring the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 last month. To mark Father’s Day, the company is offering the phone in a special gift box that includes a smart thermos cup.
The device is available in two shades – Storm and Thunder. It boasts a flat display, a flat middle frame, and a rounded square camera module on the rear. The flash is positioned outside the camera island. The back panel has a unique fluorite AG finish, created using a high-pressure molding technique, giving the phone a distinctive appearance. It also has an IP64 rating for dust and water resistance, indicating it can withstand water splashes (but not submersion) and is fully protected against dust.
Display and Battery
The phone features a 6.78″ screen with a 1.5K (1260 x 2800) resolution, supporting peak brightness of 4500 nits and a 144Hz refresh rate. Despite its large display, it is relatively lightweight at 194g. The body measures 7.98mm in thickness and houses a substantial 6000mAh battery. One of the standout features of the device is its battery longevity. It also supports 80W wired fast charging, capable of reaching 50% charge in 26 minutes under standard conditions.
Performance and Configuration
The Y200 GT is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, available in four storage and memory combinations – 128GB + 8GB, 256GB + 8GB, 256GB + 12GB, and 512GB + 12GB. This utilizes UFS 2.2 storage. The chipset, built on TSMC’s 4nm process, includes 1 x Cortex-A715 performance core at 2.63GHz, 3 x Cortex-A715 cores at 2.4GHz, and 4 x power-efficient Cortex-A510 cores at 1.78GHz. The performance core and GPU provide a 15% and 50% performance boost, respectively, compared to its predecessor.
Camera Setup
The phone sports a basic dual-camera system at the back, featuring a 50MP main camera with a Sony LYT600 sensor and a 2MP depth sensor. For selfies, there's a 16MP camera positioned in a centered punch-hole design.
Pricing
The prices for the different variants are as follows: 128GB + 8GB at 1449 Yuan ($200), 256GB + 8GB at 1549 Yuan ($214), 256GB + 12GB at 1599 Yuan ($220), and 512GB + 12GB at 2049 Yuan ($282).
