The Vivo X200 Ultra will employ for the first time Vivo’s own AI image processor, the VS1. Supporting 80 TOPS (Tera Operations Per Second), the image processor handles bokeh photos that allow the background of a portrait to appear blurry on purpose. The AI image processor will also handle HDR and multi-frame photos taken in real time. The photo system supports focal lengths from 24mm to 100mm, 4K portrait video, and multiple night modes like Supermoon and Starry Sky. The front-facing camera weighs in at 32MP.

The phone is powered by the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite designed by Qualcomm and manufactured by TSMC using its third-generation 3nm node (N3P). It features an optical in-screen fingerprint sensor although we would have preferred to see it use an ultrasonic biometric scanner instead. The latter is faster and is more accurate.
