How do the displays compare?
The X100's LTPO AMOLED display gives it an adaptive refresh rate from 1–120 Hz, which can help battery life during static content. The X200 has a fixed 120 Hz AMOLED but is brighter at 4,500 nits peak versus the X100's 3,000 nits — a significant outdoor visibility advantage.
| Component | vivo X100 5G | vivo X200 5G | What it means |
|---|
| Screen size | 6.78 inch | 6.67 inch | X100 is slightly larger |
| Screen resolution | 1260 × 2800 pixels | 1260 × 2800 pixels | Identical resolution on both |
| Aspect ratio | 20:9 | 20:9 | Same proportions |
| Pixel density | 452–453 PPI | 460 PPI | X200 is marginally crisper |
| Display type | LTPO AMOLED, 1–120 Hz | AMOLED, 120 Hz | X100 has adaptive refresh; X200 is fixed |

| Screen protection | Corning Gorilla Glass 6 | Schott Xensation Alpha | Both are premium; different glass brands |
| HDR | HDR10+ | HDR10+ | Same HDR standard on both |
➜ Pro tip: If you spend a lot of time outdoors or in direct sunlight, the X200's 4,500-nit display is a meaningful real-world upgrade over the X100's 3,000 nits.
How do the cameras compare?
The X100 and X200 have different camera configurations. The X100 uses a 64 MP periscope telephoto; the X200 uses a 50 MP periscope telephoto but with a larger Sony IMX882 sensor. Both use Zeiss T* coating and OIS. The X200's ultrawide is also a stronger 50 MP unit versus the X100's 50 MP ultrawide.
| Component | vivo X100 5G | vivo X200 5G | What it means |
|---|
| Camera setup | Triple | Triple | Same number of lenses |
| Main camera | 50 MP, f/1.57, 1/1.49" Sony IMX920, OIS | 50 MP, f/1.6, 1/1.56" Sony IMX921, OIS | Comparable main cameras; X100 has slightly larger sensor |
| Ultrawide | 50 MP, f/2.0, 119°, AF | 50 MP, f/2.0, 119°, AF | Identical ultrawide specs |
| Telephoto | 64 MP, f/2.57, 3x optical zoom, 1/2" Omnivision OV64B | 50 MP, f/2.6, 3x optical zoom, 1/1.95" Sony IMX882 | X200 uses a larger telephoto sensor despite lower MP |

| Component | vivo X100 5G | vivo X200 5G | What it means |
|---|
| Capacity | 5,000 mAh | 5,800 mAh | X200 has a substantially larger battery |
| Type | Li-Po | Li-Ion (Si/C) | X200 uses newer silicon-carbon battery chemistry |
| Wired charging | 120 W | 90 W | X100 charges faster — 50% in 11 min versus ~30 min |
| Wireless charging | No | No | Neither phone supports wireless charging |
| Reverse charging | Yes | Yes | Both can charge accessories |
➜ Pro tip: The X100's 120W charging is one of the fastest on any flagship — it hits 50% in just 11 minutes. If fast top-ups matter more than total battery capacity, the X100 has a clear edge here.
