The telephoto camera to beat.
X100 Ultra is what happens when Vivo stops compromising: a 1-inch main and a 200 MP periscope that crops cleanly to 7× and beyond, tuned by ZEISS, fed by a dedicated ISP. For reach and detail it out-shoots every 2024 flagship including the S24 Ultra. The catch is buying one — it never left China officially.
