SpecEagle Editorial·Jul 2025·$649·Score 82/100
X200 FE is the first Vivo X-series sold globally in a compact form — bringing Zeiss tuning, a 3× telephoto and a 6,500 mAh battery to markets where the X200 Pro is grey-import only. OnePlus 13T edges it on chip; Galaxy S25 wins on software polish; but neither matches its battery-per-gram ratio.
