You can't have it, so that's why you want it, right? Well, no - we know we'll want the vivo X200 Ultra because of its camera greatness, just like we did with the X100 Ultra before. Not being able to have it isn't remotely part of its appeal - all it is, is one the world's most unfortunate enduring injustices.
On the X200 Ultra, vivo has decided to swap out the 1-inch main camera for a smaller-sensor one - the 1/1.28" optical format of the new imager is a bit of a downgrade. To make up for that, the company has chosen to pair it with a 35mm equivalent lens - not the most popular choice, so far almost an exclusive territory for nubia's camera efforts. It could be an attempt at misdirection by vivo so that we shift our focus away from the smaller sensor, though they just might be on to something with that focal length.
A proper upgrade can be seen on the ultrawide camera. It's another unit of the same sensor that is used here as well, replacing the 1/2.0" imager in the old model's setup. The 200MP 1/1.4" sensor on the 85mm telephoto didn't really call for an upgrade so it's been kept the same. It's really more like three 'main' cameras on the back of this Ultra, joined by one of the better specced selfie cameras in the industry.
There are a handful of other changes, none of them all too surprising. This year's most powerful Snapdragon replaces last year's and there's a minor battery capacity increase. And that's mostly it, in fact.
Well, that, and a new Photography kit - an optional accessory that includes a dedicated case with a battery grip and a telephoto extender lens. We'll give that one a look too.
The X200 Ultra's presentation is no different from any other high-end vivo from recent years. The squarish graphite-colored cardboard box holds the usual stuff too, the Chinese market being perfectly okay with having one charger per phone, unlike some other jurisdictions.
Indeed, the package contains an adapter rated for 90W, and a USB-A-to-C cable to go with it. Also included is a soft matte silicone case in a color to match the phone's own colorway.
the new main sensor taking better photos and videos compared to vivo X100 ultra ... So it's an update, numbers and specs on paper doesn't matter.. In real life results matters and yes already Vivo X200 Ultra it's better.. Very soon...
