The handset has already debuted globally and is now gearing up for its official Indian release. Vivo has confirmed several key specifications and features of the phone, with its launch expected later this month.

The Vivo X200 FE features a flat 6.31-inch display with Zeiss Master Colour calibration and a Shield Glass protection layer. It adopts a sleek, premium design with a boxy chassis, a centre-positioned punch-hole camera, and narrow bezels. On the rear, the phone sports a distinctive squircle-shaped camera module housing dual sensors with Zeiss branding, an additional sensor, and an LED flash.

Vivo highlights the handset’s compact design—just 7.99mm thick—making it ideal for users seeking a pocket-friendly premium smartphone.
