Vivo just pulled a fast one on the tech crowd—launching the X200s in China without much noise, but with specs that shout “flagship” from the rooftops. At the heart of the device is MediaTek’s new Dimensity 9400 Plus, an overclocked variant of the already powerful 9400 chip. According to Vivo, this version delivers around 20% more performance in Agentic AI tasks, pushing responsiveness and real-time processing into next-gen territory. It comes with LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, scaling up to an impressive 16GB of RAM and 1TB of internal space.
Vivo X200s display: a feast for your eyes
Now, let’s talk display. The X200s features a 6.67-inch flat OLED panel from BOE with Q10 substrate, rocking a crisp 1.5K resolution (2800 x 1260) and a 120Hz refresh rate. Add in 2160Hz PWM dimming for eye comfort and a peak brightness of 4,500 nits, and you’re looking at one of the brightest and smoothest displays in this class. Bezels? Barely there.
On the back, you’ll find a triple 50MP setup that’s hard to ignore. The main sensor is a Sony IMX921 with OIS and Vivo’s in-house VCS 2.0 color engine. Alongside it: a 50MP ultra-wide (Samsung JN1) and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens (IMX882) with 3x optical zoom. Selfies are handled by a 32MP front shooter, a consistent spec in Vivo’s premium line.
Impressive battery life
The battery? Generous. A 6,200mAh dual-cell unit, with 90W wired and 40W wireless charging. Under the hood, the X200s runs Android 15 with OriginOS 5, and packs extras like ultrasonic fingerprint scanning, dual stereo speakers, IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance, laser autofocus, a flicker sensor for camera stability, and a tactile x-axis linear motor.
Connectivity is fully loaded too: Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, IR blaster, and one unique twist—“kilometer-level offline communication”, a Vivo innovation that lets users connect over long distances without cellular networks. Likely exclusive to China, at least for now.
The phone comes in four colors—Soft Purple, Mint, White, and Classic Black. IT weighs either 203g or 205g depending on the finish. Dimensions are a sleek 160.1 x 74.29 x 7.99mm.

Right now, it’s a China-only release, and Vivo hasn’t confirmed global availability. Given the brand’s track record, we don’t expect to see an international version anytime soon. But we can hope to.
