Unleash The Flagship Underwater: DIVEVOLK Platinum Meets the VIVO X200 Ultra

Globe and Mail15-05-2025

Global renowned waterproof equipment brand DIVEVOLK has recently unveiled the SeaTouch 4 Max Platinum Edition waterproof case, specifically designed for the vivo X200 Ultra, a top-tier imaging flagship. This innovative collaboration aims to solve the four major challenges of underwater photography. As a phenomenon-level imaging flagship in 2025, the vivo X200 Ultra has been making waves in the 3C digital market since its launch on April 21. With its Zeiss triple prime lenses, dual imaging chips, and external teleconverter—disruptive innovations that have garnered significant attention—the vivo X200 Ultra has been hailed as a "mobile imaging workstation." Its full-focal-length, no-compromise "triple main camera" architecture has rewritten the rules of smartphone photography competition.
Inspired by projects like "Roaming Earth", where creators explore and document our planet's wonders, we saw photographers facing this exact challenge. Their solution? Pairing the powerful VIVO X200 Ultra with the specialized DIVEVOLK SeaTouch 4 Max Platinum Edition underwater housing.
This combination proved essential for capturing breathtaking underwater sequences, overcoming environmental hurdles, and truly leveraging the phone's advanced capabilities. Let's dive into how the DIVEVOLK Platinum Edition is purpose-built to be the ultimate underwater companion for today's top-tier flagship smartphones.
DIVEVOLK SeaTouch 4 Max Platinum – Born for Flagships
Recognizing the specific needs of advanced users with premium devices, DIVEVOLK created the SeaTouch 4 Max Platinum Edition.
Engineered for Top-Tier Phones: Its design philosophy centers on accommodating the larger dimensions, thicker profiles, and complex camera modules often found on leading flagship models. It's precision-built for phones like the iPhone 16 Pro Max,Samsung S25 Ultra,OnePlus 13, Google Pixel 9, VIVO X200 Ultra, HUAWEI Pura 70 Ultra, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, OPPO Find X8 Ultra, and other similar high-end devices. The distinctive platinum finish also adds a touch of premium aesthetic to match your top-tier phone.
Dual Protection System: The Platinum Edition features a military-grade sealed structure capable of withstanding water pressure at depths of up to 60 meters. Specifically engineered for flagship devices, its reinforced mid-frame design ensures seamless compatibility with the Zeiss quad-camera module of the vivo X200 Ultra.
Unlocking Native Camera Power with Full Touchscreen: The Platinum Edition features DIVEVOLK's revolutionary full underwater touchscreen technology. This is paramount for flagship phones, as it allows you direct access to the phone's native, feature-rich camera application. You can utilize all the advanced settings – manual focus, ISO, shutter speed adjustments, RAW capture, accessing different built-in lenses – just as you would on land. No limitations from simplified third-party apps or restricted button layouts.
Professional Accessory Ecosystem: The Platinum housing seamlessly integrates with the full DIVEVOLK accessory system. The standard 67mm Threaded Adapter allows for the use of professional Underwater Filters and Wet Lenses (wide-angle, macro), while universal mounting points accommodate Video Lights, Handles, and Trays, enabling users to build a complete, customized underwater imaging rig.
When Flagship Imaging Power Meets Underwater Challenges
The "Roaming Earth" project provided a real-world proving ground. Photographers navigated complex underwater environments, dealing with currents and challenging lighting. They relied on the VIVO X200 Ultra's exceptional imaging prowess, accessed and controlled seamlessly through the DIVEVOLK Platinum's reliable protection and intuitive touchscreen interface. The ability to make fine adjustments on the fly using the native camera app was crucial for capturing professional-quality shots under demanding conditions.
While many conventional waterproof housings depend on third-party applications to operate smartphones—a design choice that inherently restricts access to native imaging functionalities—the VIVO X200 Ultra distinguishes itself with its advanced imaging architecture. Notably, its capacity for 4K/120fps slow-motion cinematography and other professional-grade features can only be fully leveraged through the DIVEVOLK SeaTouch 4 Max Platinum and its proprietary underwater touchscreen interface. This patented technology enables photographers to bypass software limitations, granting full access to the device's native camera controls. By preserving the phone's original imaging algorithms and creative tools, the Platinum Edition empowers users to unlock cinematic-grade underwater footage that generic solutions cannot achieve.
Explore the behind-the-scenes samples shot with DIVEVOLK Platinum and vivo X200 Ultra, and experience the shocking underwater visual feast it brings.
The stunning visuals achieved demonstrated that with the right housing solution, flagship smartphones are more than capable of delivering professional-grade underwater content.
DIVEVOLK: Redefining Underwater Photography for Everyone
Target User Profile: In addition to professional photographers, the proportion of casual diving enthusiasts and travel bloggers continues to rise annually. DIVEVOLK addresses these diverse needs through lightweight design and social media-friendly features such as one-touch sharing.
Comparison with Professional Underwater Cameras: Taking the VIVO X200 Ultra's "triple main camera" system as an example, the combination of a smartphone and platinum housing demonstrates advantages in portability, seamless multi-focal switching, and color accuracy in direct output. Additionally, its cost is just one-third of professional underwater camera setups.

VIVO X200 Ultra
HUAWEI Pura 70 Ultra
Xiaomi 15 Ultra
OPPO Find X8 Ultra

Can Rivian Realistically Return to Growth in 2025?

When many investors turned to find the next Tesla, which is easier said than done, some turned to the young electric vehicle (EV) maker Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN). The company had proven capable of manufacturing high-quality vehicles, impressed critics and consumers alike, and inked a massive deal for delivery vans (EDVs) with Amazon -- life was good. Exiting 2023 you could argue Rivian had more momentum than any EV maker out there, but that has since dissipated and left investors wondering if the automaker can return to growth in 2025. The harsh truth The harsh truth is that the automotive industry is extremely competitive, and it takes an automaker with a full lineup to be truly successful. That hampers Rivian's ability to post extreme growth as the company only offers the R1T, R1S, and EDVs. But what's worse is that Rivian's only offerings are aging, and demand for them is waning -- it's been a noticeable trend. So the question facing investors is: Can the automaker return to growth in 2025 before the highly anticipated R2 launch in 2026? Driving demand Investors in the know understand that Rivian has a small consumer base, but that it's a highly passionate base as well. There are Rivian adventure groups all across social media with consumers planning trips among other things. Rivian is attempting to tap into this passion with its first major marketing push, which the company could certainly use to help stoke demand for its vehicles. "This campaign is about celebrating the people who define what Rivian truly is," said Vice President of Marketing Denise Cherry on Rivian's blog. "Our vehicles are made to empower exploration and adventure, but it's the stories our owners create that give them real soul. For our first 360 brand campaign, we wanted to make sure our owners were the spotlight." Rivian has largely relied on word of mouth and organic growth to spread its brand awareness, but with demand waning over the past year, this marks the right time for the company to try to drive interest and demand for its R1 vehicles. The next step Then it'll be time for the R1 vehicles to hand the baton to the R2 in 2026, which starts at roughly $45,000, or about half the price of Rivian's R1 vehicles. With 155,000 production units annually the R2 will be able to nearly double production of the R1S and R1T. If demand is there, expect deliveries to take off and accelerate through 2026. Investors also can't forget Rivian's big-time move to swap initial production of the R2 from its Georgia plant, which is under construction, to its Illinois plant thanks to an expansion of the factory. It's a move that not only fills production capacity at its original plant, but that saved the company roughly $2.25 billion. What it all means The harsh truth is that Rivian is unlikely to return to growth in 2025, unless its marketing campaign works miracles to drive immense demand. The automaker is essentially all-in on its R2, which boasts a much lower-cost bill of materials and improved tech, and will rely on the R2, R3, and R3X to take the company into its next growth stage. The near-term environment for EVs is pessimistic, especially with the current administration pulling support for the EV industry, and Rivian lacks any visible catalysts for the stock in 2025. But investors would be wise to take the long-term approach with Rivian. The company just achieved two consecutive quarters of gross profit and if it executes the production ramp-up of the R2 in 2026, it will be a much better year for investors. Where to invest $1,000 right now When our analyst team has a stock tip, it can pay to listen.

Baidu Bets Big on AI: Is the Cloud Business Finally Paying Off?

Baidu BIDU is beginning to see real traction from its years-long investment in artificial intelligence (AI), with AI Cloud emerging as a key driver of growth and profitability. While macro pressures and regulatory uncertainty still weigh on China's tech landscape, Baidu's cloud transformation signals a notable shift in the company's core business dynamics. AI Cloud revenue jumped 42% year over year to RMB6.7 billion, now contributing 26% of Baidu Core revenue, up from 20% a year earlier. This growth is fueled by rising enterprise demand for generative AI capabilities and foundation models, delivered primarily through Qianfan, Baidu's Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) platform. The company's emphasis on full-stack AI infrastructure and continual model optimization, evidenced by the recent launches of ERNIE 4.5 Turbo and ERNIE X1 Turbo, has significantly cut inference costs while improving output quality. These improvements are making Baidu's AI Cloud more attractive to clients seeking scalable and cost-efficient AI deployments. Importantly, Baidu has shifted its cloud revenue mix toward subscription-based models, offering greater visibility and sustainability. Management emphasized that subscription revenues now make up the majority of enterprise cloud sales, with Gen AI-related subscription revenue growing at triple-digit rates for multiple quarters. Profitability is also on an upswing, with non-GAAP operating margins for AI Cloud reaching the mid-teens. However, Baidu continues to reinvest aggressively in AI infrastructure and emerging applications, such as autonomous driving and Gen AI search, which may cap near-term margin expansion. Overall, Baidu's execution in cloud AI is gaining momentum, signaling that its multi-year bet on AI is not only paying off but also reshaping the company's long-term growth narrative. Baidu Competing With China's Cloud AI Giants: Alibaba and Tencent As Baidu doubles down on AI Cloud, it faces formidable competition from Alibaba BABA and Tencent TCEHY, both are aggressively expanding their cloud footprints in China's evolving AI landscape. Alibaba Cloud, still the market leader by share, is integrating its proprietary Tongyi Qianwen foundation models into a broad range of enterprise services. With a massive installed base and strong ties across e-commerce and logistics, Alibaba offers both scale and cross-sector penetration that Baidu must contend with. Meanwhile, Tencent is leveraging its strengths in gaming, social platforms, and fintech to embed AI services into vertical applications. Tencent's Hunyuan model is gaining traction, and the company's approach emphasizes AI-as-a-service across its super app ecosystem. Where Baidu sets itself apart is through its deep stack integration, from chips to models to applications, via Qianfan. BIDU's Price Performance, Valuation and Estimates Baidu shares have lost 5.3% in the past three months against the Zacks Internet - Services industry's 6.1% rise. BIDU's forward 12-month price/earnings ratio sits at 8.76, far below the industry average of 18.74. Over the past 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for Baidu's 2025 earnings per share has decreased, as you can see below. Baidu stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
