Midrange

EDITORIAL: (the star after phone’s name indicates that we are still waiting for actual tests to be completed. My score string here is based on what we know so far and it is subject to change) Huawei’s 2025 flagship comes with a midrange performance processor and a brand new HarmonyOS based on Android 13 but everything else about this phone is flagship grade. The main camera system however, could be the best in the world – we’re waiting for actual tests to confirm this. Huawei committed early on to including a very good desktop replacement feature with all of their top tier phones. A 100W power adapter is likely to be included as well.

PROs
a (likely) 2-day battery endurance 5700mAh Silicone Carbon battery with 100W wired (80W wireless) fast charging, a IP69 water protection, 50MP main + 48MP tele lenses with OIS plus 40MP ultrawide (all with PDAF) and a Desktop replacement software too
CONs
this is a China-only phone, midrange performance of Kirin 9020 chip, a no-AF Selfie, lack of expandable memory and real concerns over the future OS updates (updated Apr 7, 2025)
Vivo X200s
74.3mm (2.93in) · Apr 25, 2025 · Rank #54

FLY* TOP Battery Endurance* TOP Software

EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test score based on reasonable expectations of battery and camera performance) Arriving 6 months and week later, this is a Vivo X200 upgrade. The body is narrower by 0.5mm, Dimensity 9400 is now 9400+, UFS4.0 is now 4.1, Si/C battery got bigger by 400mAh and gained wireless charging, already bright screen is now (slightly) brighter with ultrasonic (instead of optical) fingerprint sensor. Wish the selfie received AF but on Vivo, that seems reserved for the Ultra edition.

PROs
a flagship on a narrow side, good build, fast Dimensity 9400+ with UFS4.1 performance, 36hr endurance from a 6200mAh battery with sub-1hr 90W charging, great imaging from the 50MP OIS PDAF main + 50MP OIS PDAF periscope + 50MP AF ultrawide, very clean Android version with 4 years of OS updates
CONs
selfie with no AF, lack of expandable memory or desktop replacement software
