Vivo X200 Pro Review

Vivo X200 Pro is an absolute beast of a smartphone! Its 200MP periscope camera, in particular, is amazing for portraits and zoom photography. Whereas the X200 Pro also impresses with its bold design, excellent display, top-notch performance, and all-day battery life. Making it a perfect alternative to the best that Apple and Samsung have to offer.

It's a shame, really. The X200 Pro is the first big flagship brought over from Vivo to South African shores, debuting one of the best smartphone cameras around – alongside overachieving internals, brilliant display, and battery that won't be whining for a charge before 6PM. It just happens to cost R40,000. That's a figure we just can't ignore.

With excellent photographic ability, this is a smartphone that I’d love to recommend more widely – but a limited global availability makes it difficult to do so.
