Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 Based on Android 16 Expected to Launch with Xiaomi 16, Following HyperOS 2

Vivo is gearing up to expand its mid-range lineup with the introduction of the Vivo T4 Ultra, a higher-end variant of the recently launched Vivo T4. The Ultra tag is familiar within Vivo’s T series, with the Vivo T3 Ultra currently available in India at an affordable price point. According to recent leaks, the Vivo T4 Ultra is expected to hit the market by early June, potentially replacing the T3 Ultra as the premium option in this series.

The Vivo T4 Ultra is rumored to feature a 6.67-inch pOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, promising vibrant visuals and fluid scrolling. Powering the device will be a MediaTek Dimensity 9300 series chipset, although the exact model within the series has yet to be confirmed. The focus on performance and display improvements suggests Vivo’s intent to offer a compelling package for users seeking a high-end experience without breaking the bank.

Camera upgrades are expected to be a highlight of the T4 Ultra. While it may retain the 50-megapixel Sony IMX921 primary sensor found on previous models, the secondary camera is said to be a significant upgrade: replacing the ultrawide lens with a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens. This change could bring enhanced zoom capabilities and improved versatility for photography enthusiasts. On the software side, the device is anticipated to run Funtouch OS 15 based on Android 15, offering a modern and smooth user experience.

Battery details remain under wraps, but the Vivo T4 Ultra is tipped to support faster 90W wired charging, a step up from the 80W charging on the Vivo T3 Ultra. Speaking of which, the current Vivo T3 Ultra features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ processor, and a 5,500mAh battery. It sports a triple 50-megapixel camera setup and is priced starting at Rs. 27,999. With these rumored enhancements, the Vivo T4 Ultra could become a compelling option in the mid-range segment for users looking for a performance and camera boost.
