Why does this story matter?
Vivo's X series is renowned for its camera prowess.
The X90 Pro+ has been a top-notch camera-centric smartphone since its debut. The X100 Pro+ appears to be following in the footsteps of its predecessor, offering the best camera implementation and photography features.
If we go by the tip-off, the X100 Pro+ with its 200MP telephoto lens may dethrone smartphones known for their telephoto abilities.

Up front, it will offer a top-centered punch-hole and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint reader.
