Vivo X200 FE
Alongside the Vivo X Fold 5, the company has launched a new compact phone, Vivo X200 FE. Like the OnePlus 13s, it offers big-phone power in a 6.3-inch screen design alongside a large battery. Compared to its OnePlus rival, it adds an ultrawide-angle camera and trades the Qualcomm chipset for a top-end MediaTek SoC.
The X200 FE is Vivo's smallest phone with a flagship chipset. It features a comfortable in-hand feel and is made for those who are tired of performing finger gymnastics on big-screen slab phones. It measures just 186 grams and is rated IP68 and IP69 for dust and water resistance.
The Vivo X200 FE features a 6.31-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 1,216 × 2,640-pixel resolution. It offers a 120Hz refresh rate and 1,800 nits peak brightness. Thanks to slim bezels, it remains as intuitive as a big-screen phone.

The new Vivo phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ SoC, paired with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 3.1 onboard storage. It ships with Android 15-based Funtouch OS 15. You get a big 6,500mAh battery with 90W wired fast charging support. Connectivity options include dual nano SIM, 5G, 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, OTG, NFC, and USB Type-C.
Coming to the Zeiss-backed triple rear camera setup, the Vivo X200 FE sports a 50MP Sony IMX921 primary sensor with optical image stabilization. It is accompanied by a 50MP Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom and OIS, and an 8MP ultrawide-angle camera with a 120-degree field of view. You also get a 50MP selfie shooter behind a punch-hole notch on top of the screen.
Vivo X200 FE Price and Availability

The Vivo X200 FE is priced at INR 54,999 (approx. $640) for the 12GB + 256GB option in India. You can also buy a 16GB + 512GB variant for INR 59,999 (approx. $700).

Apple Dethroned in China as Huawei Reclaims China Smartphone Crown

July 29 - China's smartphone market cooled in Q2 2025, sliding 4% year?over?year as subsidy?driven demand faded, Canalys data show. Huawei Technologies led with 12.2 million shipments, up 15% from last year, grabbing an 18% share. Vivo followed closely with 11.8 million units, a 10% decline after last year's 13.1 million. Oppo (including OnePlus) placed third, shipping 10.7 million devices for a 16% stake. Xiaomi notched its eighth straight quarter of annual growth, moving 10.4 million phones for fourth place. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) slipped to fifth, delivering 10.1 million iPhones, up 4%, after early momentum was hampered by higher pricing and subsidy eligibility issues. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 8 Warning Signs with HOOD. Huawei's launch of the Nova 14 series, its first with HarmonyOS 5.0, should boost its independent ecosystem but will test compatibility and experience, said Canalys analyst Lucas Zhong. Vivo targeted diverse segments with its staggered rollout of X200, S30 and Y300 models, while Xiaomi pressed ahead with its in?house XRing O1 chipset in the Xiaomi 15s Pro and Pad 7 Ultra to reinforce its premium R&D commitment. Canalys practice leader Amber Liu forecasts modest full?year growth for China, noting healthy inventory levels and a cautious channel approach. Consumer sentiment is set to recover in H2 as economic resilience supports upgrade demand, she said. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

India overtakes China as biggest smartphone exporter to the United States, report says

Tech giants Asia China IndiaFacebookTweetLink Follow For the first time India has overtaken China as the No. 1 exporter of smartphones to the United States, following Apple's tariff-driven manufacturing pivot to New Delhi. India-made devices accounted for 44% of smartphone imports in the US during the second quarter, up sharply from 13% during the same period last year, according to a new report published Monday by research firm Canalys. The total volume of smartphones made in India jumped 240% year-over-year, Canalys wrote. Meanwhile, the share of the devices exported to the US that were assembled in China fell to just 25%. That marks a significant decline from the 61% share China logged during the same quarter a year ago — and it means China has dropped all the way to third place, behind Vietnam. India's newfound lead is 'largely driven' by US tech giant Apple (AAPL) accelerating its manufacturing shift to the country, away from China, given the 'uncertain trade landscape' between Washington and Beijing, said Canalys principal analyst Sanyam Chaurasia. 'Apple has scaled up its production capacity in India over the last several years… and has opted to dedicate most of its export capacity in India to supply the US market so far in 2025,' he wrote. That said, Apple is still 'dependent' on its established manufacturing bases in China, Chaurasia noted. Smartphones and other electronics containing semiconductors are exempt from US President Donald Trump's so-called reciprocal tariffs, sparing China-made iPhones from the harshest levies. But Apple CEO Tim Cook said in May that these devices still faced a minimum 20% tariff. At the time, Cook said that he expected that 'the majority of iPhones sold in the US will have India as their country of origin.' Trump hopes to fuel a resurgence in US-based manufacturing by hiking tariffs on America's trading partners, leaving products made in foreign factories more expensive for US consumers. China has arguably taken the biggest hit. Earlier this year, Trump imposed a whopping 145% overall tariff on China, prompting Beijing to retaliate with its own 125% across-the-board levy on US goods. Both sides agreed in May to drastically roll back 'reciprocal' tariffs for a 90-day period. US and Chinese trade negotiators are meeting in Sweden this week for talks aimed at extending that truce, which could allow time to hammer out a lasting deal. But despite the recent détente, months of Trump's rollercoaster on-and-off tariffs have encouraged manufacturers to look beyond China. It extends a longer-running trend of companies attempting to diversify their supply chains away from China, the world's second-largest economy. In recent years, fast-growing Asian economies like Vietnam and India have emerged as alternative locations for manufacturers as ties between Beijing and the West have frayed. During the pandemic, too, China's strict zero-Covid policy scrambled global supply chains and highlighted the risks of concentrating production in a single location. 'The uncertain outcome of negotiations with China has accelerated supply chain reorientation,' analysts at Canalys wrote in their report.

Google Pixels just got a welcome boost for PC emulation

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR GameSir has confirmed that its GameHub PC emulator will also perform better on Google Pixel phones. This comes shortly after it announced performance improvements for devices with Mali graphics. The company hasn't detailed which improvements will come to Pixel phones, but this is still good news for mobile gamers. Controller brand GameSir recently announced that its GameHub app for PC emulation offers much better support for devices with Mali GPUs. The company specifically pointed to devices with recent high-end Dimensity chips. We also wondered whether this would affect Pixel phones, and we now have an answer. GameSir confirmed to Android Authority that Google Pixel phones will benefit from Mali GPU performance improvements: Our collaboration is carried out through MediaTek, but all devices with Mali GPUs — including the Pixel series — will benefit. This is a strategic move on an ecosystem level. There's no word on specific improvements coming to Pixel devices, but this is good news for Pixel owners who want to emulate PC games. I'm also guessing these enhancements could benefit Samsung phones with older Exynos chips, as these also have Mali GPUs. The GameHub team previously announced that its Mali GPU improvements enable 'performance comparable to Qualcomm Adreno, and even surpassing it in some scenarios.' The company even said it was teaming up with MediaTek to eventually release custom drivers to 'address long-standing Mali GPU issues at the chip level, further enhancing the gaming performance of Dimensity devices.' There is one potential downside to this announcement, though. The Google Pixel 10 series is rumored to have an Imagination GPU in lieu of Mali graphics. If confirmed, this means the Pixel 10 phones won't benefit from these newly announced optimizations. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .
