Vivo has just announced three new smartphones, and the smallest of them is the Vivo X200 Pro mini. All three phones belong under the same Vivo X200 series, but only two are ‘Pro’ phones, and this is one of them. In this article, we’ll focus on that phone alone. The Vivo X200 and Vivo X200 Pro will be covered separately.

The Vivo X200 Pro mini is a compact flagship smartphone from the company
Vivo’s X200 Pro mini comes as a semi-surprise. It’s not a full surprise as we’ve known about its existence for a couple of weeks now. On the other hand, it’s quite surprising as Vivo does not have a habit of releasing compact flagship smartphones.

When it comes to design, it’s very similar to its siblings. The main differentiating point is the alignment of its camera sensors on the back. They have a rhombus shape, compared to two-by-two setup on its larger sibling.

The phone is made out of metal and glass, while it has flat sides. Its front and back sides are also flat, and as part of that a ‘Quad Curved Display’ is included. That is basically a flat display that has a 90-degree curve on all of its sides. It’s also known as a micro-curved display. A centered display camera hole is included too, and the bezels around the display are very thin, and uniform.

It has the same ZEISS-backed camera setup as its larger sibling
A camera oreo on the back is included, along with ZEISS optics. That camera oreo does protrude on the back, though it could make for a nice anchor for your finger. We’ll have to wait and see.

This smartphone features a 6.31-inch 1.5K display. This is an LTPO AMOLED display, by the way, and it has a resolution of 2640 x 1216 pixels. The MediaTek Dimensity 9400 SoC fuels this phone, the company’s brand new chip.

A 50-megapixel main camera (Sony’s LYT-818 sensor, 1/1.28-inch sensor, f/1.57 aperture) sits on the back. It is backed by a 50-megapixel ultrawide unit (ISOCELL JN1 sensor, f/2.0 aperture), and a 50-megapixel periscope tele-macro camera (f/2.57 aperture, 3x optical zoom, 100x digital zoom). The Vivo V3+ imaging chip is also included here.

A 5,700mAh battery is included, along with up to 16GB of RAM
A 5,700mAh battery is also included in the package. The phone supports 90W wired and 30W wireless charging. It also utilizes 12GB or 16GB of RAM (LPDDR5X Ultra Pro RAM) and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of UFS 4.0 flash storage, while it is IP68 certified for water and dust resistance.

OriginOS 5 comes pre-installed on the device in China, but if it launches globally, it will ship with Funtouch 15 OS, based on Android 15. The Vivo X200 Pro mini comes in Light Pink, Plain White, Simple Black, and Titanium Green colors. The Vivo X200 Pro measures 150.83 x 71.76 x 8.15mm, and weighs 187 grams.
The 12GB RAM model of the Vivo X200 Pro mini with 256GB of storage costs CNY4,699. Its 16GB RAM model is available in both 512GB and 1TB variants, and those are priced at CNY5,299  and CNY5,799 in China. The price tags will be different globally, of course.
