  • The vivo X500 Ultra is reportedly being tested with a larger 200MP telephoto camera.
  • This is said to be a 1/1.12-inch Samsung sensor, which beats the 200MP tele sensor used on previous Vivo flagships.
  • This means that the vivo X500 Ultra could have the largest 200MP telephoto camera at its release.

The vivo X100 Ultra was the first phone with a 200MP telephoto camera, which allows for a large long-range zoom as a result. Vivo has subsequently used this 200MP sensor or variations of it on almost every Pro and Ultra phone since, but a new leak suggests a major upgrade is coming.

Prolific leaker Digital Chat Station has claimed on Weibo that the rumored vivo X500 Ultra is being tested with a 200MP 1/1.12-inch telephoto camera. See the machine translated screenshot below.
