September saw the introduction of the newest addition to vivo’s T series, the T2 Pro. However, this wasn’t the end of the line. Reports suggest that vivo is currently in the process of developing the T3, set to be officially announced by the end of this month as per a reliable source.

The upcoming vivo T3 is anticipated to run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7200 SoC, boasting a vibrant 120 Hz AMOLED display, Android 14 operating system, and the Sony IMX882 sensor for its main camera.

These specs may sound familiar, as they are also rumored for the upcoming iQOO Z9, scheduled for unveiling on March 12. While not an exhaustive list of features, there could be differences between the two phones. Nonetheless, it wouldn’t be surprising to see similarities or even a rebranding, considering the common practice among Chinese companies.

The Dimensity 7200, in a reportedly customized “Pro” version, is also featured in the Nothing Phone (2a), recently unveiled today. This positions the Phone (2a) as a significant competitor to both the vivo T3 and the iQOO Z9.
