BEST Phone Spring Summer 2025FLY* TOP Screen* TOP Selfie* TOP Software* TOP Camera

EDITORIAL: Eagerly anticipated Vivo X200 Ultra came with the top hardware and very mature photo and video processing. It improved on the amazing X200 Pro with UFS 4.1, higher pixel density screen, OIS PDAF on all of its back lenses, AF selfie and a dedicated iPhone-like photo hardware slider. An amazing smartphone if you don't care for its big size and heft. It also has an extensive optional camera accessories package that adds controls, battery, and telephoto skills.

PROs
top Snapdragon 8 Elite with UFS 4.1 performance, >30hr endurance from a 6000mAh silicone anode battery with 90W sub-50min 90W (40W wireless) charging, excellent 510ppi >1800nits Dolby Vision LTPO AMOLED screen, IP69 protection, top imaging from 50MP 35mm main + 200MP 85mm periscope + 50MP 14mm ultrawide (all with OIS PDAF) back camera with an optional add-on 200mm zoom lens, a 50MP AF selfie, very good video recording, up to 4 years of OS updates, fast USB-C 3.2 with Display Port and OTG
CONs
229g heavy, massive camera bump, still no expandable memory or desktop replacement feature

11+14+15+12+12+3+5+0+5+0 = 77

EDITORIAL: Xiaomi got it right with this outstanding phone. The processor, excellent battery life and charging, top screen, main camera and OS update support. It is a mystery why there is no AF on the selfie (again), no SDmemory expansion and no desktop replacement functionality. This is a China market exclusive.

PROs
SnapDragon 8 Elite processor, a 6100mAh Silicone Carbon battery with 2-day+ endurance, 90W wired or 50W wireless charging, a bright 500+ppi LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, a 50MP main + 50MP tele with OIS PDAF + a 50MP AF ultrawide
CONs
this is a China-only phone, selfie with no OIS or even AF, lack of expandable SDmemory storage and a lack of desktop replacement software (updated Mar 26, 2025)
