The X100s and X100s Pro are expected to bring minor updates compared to the original X100 and X100 Pro. The X100 Ultra, on the other hand, will be a flagship competitor with the Xiaomi 14 Ultra in terms of features and pricing.
Recently, hands-on images of the Vivo X100 Ultra have surfaced, providing a detailed look at the flagship handset. These images reveal the phone’s substantial camera bump, aligning with Vivo’s marketing as a “professional camera that can also make calls.” The device features a metal ring around the camera island, a curved rear panel, and a curved screen.
According to the source sharing these images, the size of the camera island is considered acceptable, indicating it might be less obtrusive than it appears.
