The Vivo X300 Ultra is a powerful camera phone aimed at videographers
Chinese phonemaker Vivo has been pushing the limits of smartphone photography in the last few years. However, the availability of its phones — like last year's X200 Ultra, with its beefy add-on telephoto — has been intermittent in the West.

The company says the X300 Ultra its first global flagship launch, although there's still no word on a US launch or pricing at the time of writing. Like the latest phones from Xiaomi and Oppo, Vivo is also obsessing over larger camera sensors, peripherals and a dizzying array of technical photography specs, with a particular focus on cinematic video recording.

Collaborating with Zeiss again, the X300 Ultra features a "triple prime lens" camera system with 85, 35 and 14mm equivalent focal lengths. This can be punched up to 400mm equivalent with a new telephoto extender, the messily-named Zeiss Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra, whose price is also unknown for now.

Even without that add-on, Vivo has built its 85mm equivalent 200-megapixel telephoto camera to handle most of your zoom-heavy shooting moments. A "gimbal-grade" APO (apochromatic) camera is designed to correct color fringing and stabilize your shots. These are both typical issues when using higher zoom levels. In a dedicated "snapshot" mode, Autofocus tracking will even work at 60 fps, which I'm excited to test, as the phone can also shoot at up to 12 fps. Vivo says its optical image stabilization can correct up to three degrees of movement.

Other cameras are similarly powerful, spec-wise. The 35mm equivalent Zeiss "Documentary" camera uses a 1/1.12-inch 200MP Sony sensor and is apparently engineered for strong low-light performance and portrait shooting, with an f/1.8 aperture. Finally, there's a 50MP ultrawide rounding out
