Last month we heard that vivo was working on the X200 FE for the Indian market, as a variation on the theme of 'smaller-screen' smartphone. Initially it was thought that the X200 Pro mini, already launched in China, would make its way to India, but now it seems like vivo chose to go another route.
Today more purported specs of the X200 FE have been leaked. It's said to sport a flat 6.31-inch OLED screen with "1.5K" resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, and an under-display fingerprint sensor, and will be powered by either the Dimensity 9300+ or the still-unofficial Dimensity 9400e. This chip was initially rumored to be a lower-bin variation of the Dimensity 9400, but today's rumor claims it's actually a "slightly tuned" version of the Dimensity 9300+, whatever that means.

The X200 FE will apparently come with a 50 MP main camera using Sony's IMX921 sensor, a 50 MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom using Sony's IMX882, and an 8 MP ultrawide. For selfies we'll get a 50 MP snapper.
The phone will allegedly be offered in two RAM/storage combo options: 12/256GB and 16/512GB. It will be IP68 and IP69 certified for dust and water resistance, and will get a 6,500 mAh battery with support for 90W fast wired charging. It's rumored to weigh approximately 200g.
The X200 FE is said to be launching in July and should be priced in between INR 50,000 (approximately $593) and INR 60,000 ($711) in India. It's still unclear if it will be released elsewhere.
