Vivo Confirms 200MP Telephoto for X300 Pro With Custom Samsung Sensor and ZEISS Optics

The company says its telephoto system prioritizes stability, speed, clarity and transparency.

Overview

  • Vivo product manager Han Boxiao said on Weibo the X300 Pro’s periscope uses a deeply customized 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HPB sensor that the company claims will be exclusive.
  • The tele module is specified as a 1/1.4‑inch sensor in an ~85mm setup with ZEISS T* coating, fluorite glass elements and APO‑certified optics to curb distortion and color fringing.
  • Optical stabilization is rated at CIPA 5.5, which Vivo says allows slower shutter speeds, and a co‑developed focus‑tracking engine targets faster lock on distant subjects.
  • Vivo highlighted an in‑house Blueprint algorithm with new hardware and AI processing that is intended to improve clarity and reduce artifacts in long‑range shots.
  • Press reports suggest a 50MP Sony LYT828 main camera, VS1 and V3+ imaging chips and a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 launch window, though these details remain unconfirmed.
