Vivo has launched a new mini flagship, the X200 Pro mini, that packs powerful specs and features into a compact form factor. With a 6.3-inch OLED display, a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chip, a massive 5,700mAh battery, and impressive cameras, the X200 Pro mini is a serious contender in the high-end smartphone market. But the real surprise is its price, which is significantly lower than the iPhone 16 Pro.
Vivo has released a teaser video showcasing the upcoming X200 series, featuring three new phones – the X200, X200 Pro, and X200 Pro Mini. The video reveals sleek, thin designs, captivating color options, and unique camera arrangements. With a focus on appealing to the average customer, the series is poised to compete directly with the Samsung Galaxy S25, with starting prices ranging from $570 to $740.
Vivo has introduced the V40 and V40 Pro, mid-range smartphones that boast Zeiss-engineered camera technology, including portrait mode enhancements. The V40 Pro stands out with a 50MP triple camera system, including a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, and features like Zeiss Multifocal Portrait mode and Cinematic Bokeh Video mode. The V40 Pro also packs a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ processor and fast charging capabilities. While the V40 comes with a slightly less powerful processor and lacks the telephoto camera, both phones offer a compelling mid-range option with competitive pricing.
Tata Group’s attempt to acquire a majority stake in Vivo’s India operations was thwarted by Apple, reportedly due to concerns about potential competition. The deal, which would have made Tata a major player in the Indian smartphone market, was also aimed at ‘Indianising’ Vivo’s operations in response to government pressure.
Vivo has unveiled its latest tablet, the Vivo Pad 3, boasting impressive specs and an affordable price tag, making it a serious contender against Apple’s iPad Air. With a larger display, higher refresh rate, bigger battery, and a lower price point, the Vivo Pad 3 offers compelling value for users seeking a high-performance Android tablet.
The iQoo Z9 Turbo, iQoo Z9, and iQoo Z9x are Vivo’s sub-brand’s latest smartphones with a 50-megapixel rear camera, running on Snapdragon processors, featuring a 6.78-inch or 6.72-inch display, 6,000mAh battery, and 80W or 44W fast charging support.
