vivo T5x 5G is gearing up to launch in India on March 17, 2026, and if the teasers are anything to go by, it’s shaping up to be one of the most aggressive sub-₹23,000 phones of the year. The successor to the T4x 5G is coming in hot with a benchmark score that vivo is already using to claim the performance crown in its segment.

Why the vivo T5x 5G Has Our Attention
Let’s start with the battery — 7200mAh is confirmed as the segment’s biggest, which is a bold claim and a genuinely useful one for heavy users who are tired of hunting for a charger by evening. Pair that with the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Turbo, and vivo is promising an AnTuTu score north of one million — positioning the T5x as the fastest smartphone in the under ₹23,000 segment.
What’s equally interesting is the IP68 + IP69 dual rating — IP69 in particular is rare at this price point, offering protection against high-pressure water jets, not just splashes. Running Android 16 with OriginOS 6 out of the box also means this phone ships with software that’s ahead of most competitors launching right now.
The confirmed 8GB + 256GB variant suggests a likely 8GB + 128GB base model too, though pricing won’t be revealed until launch day. Given the T4x 5G started at ₹13,999, expect the T5x to sit somewhere in the ₹15,000–₹18,000 range — though the spec sheet could push it higher.
It will be sold on Flipkart, the vivo India online store, and offline stores after launch. Keep an eye on our vivo coverage on TechnoSports and the latest budget 5G phone roundups for price and full spec confirmation on March 17.
Quick Verdict
A million-point AnTuTu score, a 7200mAh battery, IP68+IP69, and Android 16 — all under ₹23,000. If the price lands right, the vivo T5x 5G could be the budget phone to beat in early 2026.
