  • Vivo has launched the X100 Ultra smartphone in China today.
  • It stands out thanks to a 200MP 3.7x periscope camera, with the company claiming good image quality at up to 20x.
  • There’s no word on a global release just yet.

We first heard rumors about a vivo phone with a 200MP telephoto camera almost a year ago. Well, the wait is finally over as the Chinese manufacturer has officially launched the vivo X100 Ultra.

The new smartphone is all about the camera system, and that 200MP 3.7x telephoto camera (f/2.67, 1/1.4-inch, HP9) is the main attraction here. This is the most megapixels we’ve seen in a telephoto camera, and vivo reckons it can offer good image quality at up to 20x. The company adds this camera packs “CIPA 4.5” stabilization too.
