It’s worth noting that not all vivo devices have a clear software update policy, so the final list of devices that will receive Android 16 may differ. GizmoChina reports that premium devices like the vivo X200 series will likely be the first to receive the update, given their confirmed 3-year software update support. Mid-range devices, on the other hand, may have to wait longer for an official announcement.
