vivo X200 FE review
GSMArena Team , 11 July 2025 . The vivo X200 FE boots Android 15 with a layer of the company's in-house Funtouch OS on top, also v.15. The X200 FE will be eligible for 4 major OS release updates plus an extra year with security updates, which sounds like a good level of futureproofing. The latest Funtouch isn't much different from previous iterations in look and feel, and almost gives off a bit of a dated vibe with its visuals. Funtouch 15 The present-day functionality is, of course, all there. Funtouch includes niceties now taken for granted like large folders, and the split-screen/pop-up window implementation is about as straightforward as it gets, too. The app drawer is worth mentioning too, because that's where Funtouch keeps its widget selection for some reason. Funtouch 15 The X200 FE also comes with Google's Circle to search on board and the Gemini AI assistant as well. A Google Lens-powered screen translation feature is also present. Google AI You also get live translation of phone calls, an AI helper in the Notes app, and an AI Transcript Assist utility for making summaries out of spoken conversations. Note that all of these may be region-dependent and not present in your locale. AI Transcript Assist • AI in Note Also, there's some AI-powered functionality in the gallery editor. You get to delete objects, remove people, and fight reflections - all of those with varying success, of course. AI in Albums Like other vivos, the X200 FE comes with this unique feature where it can copy and emulate a physical access card. It can scan and copy your RFID card as long as it's based on NFC technology (13.56MHz). It doesn't work for 125KHz cards. NFC Performance and benchmarks The vivo X200 FE is powered by the flagship-grade Dimensity 9300+ 4nm chip. It packs an 8-core processor with a 3.25 GHz Cortex-X4 prime core, three 2.85 GHz Cortex-X4 cores, and four 2.0GHz Cortex-A720 cores. These are all prime and high-performance cores, there are no A510 power-efficient ones. The GPU is the Immortalis-G720 MC12. There are several memory configurations - a base 12GB/256GB version, our review unit's 12GB/512GB spec, as well as the 16GB/512 top-spec variant. Not all of these will be available in all markets, as usual. The vivo X200 FE posted excellent benchmark scores, bested only by the most recent top-notch Snapdragon models. The X100 Pro from last year, which had a similar Dimensity inside, posted slightly higher scores altogether, with the regular X200 and its newer Dimensity 9400 being yet a little more potent, but the FE is plenty powerful enough. The phone kept 53% of its maximum CPU performance when running our usual stress test, and it dropped to this level after just 5 mins. The GPU sustained performance is better - the phone kept about 60% of its graphics capabilities during the 3D Mark stress test. CPU test • GPU test Overall, the vivo X200 FE enters the flagship class with its Dimensity 9300+ chip, scoring below the cream of the crop, but better than the premium midrangers out there. Its sustained performance is average at best, with the phone becoming quite hot after 10-15 mins running at peak performance. Still, for a compact device with powerful hardware, we'd say it's managed rather well. Android 15 with Funtouch 15 The vivo X200 FE boots Android 15 with a layer of the company's in-house Funtouch OS on top, also v.15.

Vivo X200 FE With MediaTek Dimensity SoC And Zeiss Cameras Launched: Price, Specs
Last Updated: Vivo X200 FE is the new compact phone in the market with heavy internals and Zeiss Optics cameras to give the all-round package. Vivo X200 FE is finally official but not in India for now. The new X-200 series model focuses on a different aspect, and still offers a powerful hardware along with the Zeiss Optics lenses. We have seen a spurt of compact premium phones in the market recently, and Vivo is adding its name into the ring alongside OnePlus, Xiaomi and Samsung among others. Vivo X200 FE Price Vivo X200 FE launch price has not been shared yet in Taiwan and we also don't know when the phone will be available in the region. However, Vivo X200 FE is expected to be announced in other markets, including India, sometime in July, so we might have to wait till then to get more details. Vivo X200 FE Specifications The X200 FE gets a compact 6.31-inch AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and support for 1.5k resolution. It is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chipset with up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage. The phone runs on Funtouch OS 15 version out of the box. Vivo is offering IP68 and IP69 rating with the device which makes it extremely reliable in water and dust conditions. The phone packs a large 6,500mAh battery yet still measures under 8mm and weighs around 186 grams, most likely because of the silicon carbide tech. It even supports 90W fast charging speed which is equally important. Vivo X200 FE India launch has been tipped for July in the earlier reports and the official unveiling of the phone without a price tag suggests we won't have to wait too long. Going by these specs, the X200 FE seems to have a better battery and camera than the OnePlus 13s, while the Xiaomi 15 has covered most bases except for the smaller battery unit.
