Vivo introduced the Vivo X100 and Vivo X100 Pro on Monday, November 13 in China with the brand new MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chipset. Now, the Chinese smartphone company is speculated to add a Vivo X100 Pro+ model to the lineup soon. The upcoming handset could run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. Last year, three models —Vivo X90, X90 Pro, and X90 Pro+— debuted under the Vivo X90 lineup. The Vivo X100 Pro+ is expected to come with a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) on Weibo (via GizmoChina) claimed that the Vivo X100 Pro+ model will join the Vivo X100 lineup soon. He states that Vivo executives have confirmed the existence of the handset without confirming the launch date. It is expected to run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. The newly launched Vivo X100 and Vivo X100 Pro use the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC under the hood.

Vivo X100 Pro+ is rumoured to debut in the first half of next year, after the rumoured Oppo Find X7 Pro and Xiaomi 14 Ultra. It is tipped to launch within six months of the Vivo X100 Pro.

Further, it is said to pack an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for authentication and offer an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance.
