Even though smartphones have become very versatile tools and have banned a multitude of elements and objects from our daily lives, certain functions have become extremely important. One of them, and perhaps the queen par excellence, is photography. It’s rare to see people using cameras, even in countries as touristy as Europe.
Cell phones are no longer just a device that allows you to leave or not have compact cameras at home, but more and more people are working with this type of product. We’re talking about photographers, directors, content creators. Cell phone cameras have reached a sufficient level that you don’t have to carry a professional camera with you.
One of the brands that has opted the most since its creation for the cameras of its cell phones has been VIVO. This manufacturer born in China has been developing internationally for several years and Europe is one of the markets where it is present. But it was in his native China that he announced not one, not two, but three new high-end mobile phones, with a new proposition for them.
The company presented three models, all high-end, to offer all types of audiences the best features of a mobile phone. He VIVOX200 It focuses on those who want a high-end terminal but also opt for a slightly cheaper model. He VIVO X200 Pro It’s the direct rival of the best mobile phones in the world, and it has a camera to match. He VIVO X200 Pro Mini It’s a surprise, a high-end model in a slightly smaller body than its older brother, for those who appreciate compact smartphones.
Although the presentation took place in China, the brand was able to confirm that The VIVO X200 Pro will arrive in Europeits most powerful model, although no date or price has yet been communicated. In addition, there could be slight changes compared to the characteristics of the Chinese model, mainly due to European legislation.
These three devices are designed from the same point of view. The goal was to create a smartphone with high quality materials, with an exceptional screen, undoubtedly powerful and a camera system that is not only good, but also very versatile.
In this camera system, a new Portrait mode Telephoto lens with a new focal length of 135 mm. But there are also functions designed for other types of photography, such as Super Landscape mode or Telephoto Macro. What caught the eye is that all three models have Live Photo, so the X200 series devices are compatible with the iPhone format.
But it’s not just about photographs. In recent years, great importance has been given to video, with proposals more expected from the professional market than from the amateur market. And VIVO wanted to be no exception. New models can record 4K video at 120fps in cinematic mode
Los tres modelos incluyen el mismo procesador, el MediaTek Dimensity 9400, un chipset de gama alta con una potencia récord. La firma presume de su puntuación en Antutu, la más alta del mercado, aunque en unos días se presentará la nueva generación de procesadores de Qualcomm y habrá que ver si se mantiene el trono en este apartado.
Habrá varias versiones de memoria, tanto interna (de 256 GB a 1 TB) como RAM (desde 12 a 16 GB), pero todas llevarán la tecnología más avanzada, UFS 4.0 para la primera y LPDDR5X en el caso de la segunda. Las pantallas tendrán 120 Hz de tasa de refresco y atenuación PWM de alta frecuencia a 2160Hz. La pantalla de los modelos X200 Pro y X200 será de 6.78 pulgadas
En cuanto a las baterías, el modelo Pro llegará con una pila de nada menos que 6.000 mAh, pero esto podría ser diferente en el caso del modelo europeo por las reglamentaciones de ese mercado. Tendrá 90 W de carga por cable con UFS 3.2 y 30 W de carga inalámbrica. También tendrá resistencia al agua y polvo IP69, emisor de infrarrojos, NFC, etc.
Como era de esperar VIVO lanzará estos modelos con Android 15, algo lógico al haber sido el primer fabricante, por encima de Google, en ofrecer la actualización a este sistema para otros modelos ya a la venta. En los mercados internacionales, como el español, vendrá con Funtouch OS, su interfaz para fuera de China.
Por el momento no se sabe qué precio tendrá el modelo Pro en España, pero es de suponer que estará en línea con lo que se ve en la gama alta premium de Samsung, Apple o Xiaomi. En China se lanzan a finales de este mes y el vivo X200 se queda en los 556 dollars al cambio (4.299 yuanes), el vivo X200 Pro mini en 607 dollars (4.699 yuanes) y vivo X200 Pro por 685 dollars (5.299 yuanes). Tampoco hay confirmación oficial de su fecha de llegada, pero lo lógico sería esperarlos en algún momento antes de que acabe el año, aunque no sería tampoco descabellado verlos en el MWC de Barcelona que tendrá lugar en marzo de 2025.
