Dimensity 9500: The Performance Powerhouse
The X300 series will debut MediaTek’s latest flagship chipset. On AnTuTu, the chip scores more than 4 million points. A base model Vivo X300 also appeared on Geekbench with 16GB of RAM and Android 16. It reached 3,177 in single-core and 9,701 in multi-core tests.
Camera Upgrades Take Center Stage
The camera configuration being considered is ambitious: a main sensor of 200MP, along with a 50MP telephoto lens, a 50MP ultra-wide angle lens, and a 50MP front camera. Both flagships were also teased with the Cinematic Portrait video recording feature, which will support 4K resolution capture at 60fps.
No Mini Model: Strategic Shift
Unlike the X200 series that included a Pro Mini variant, Vivo is streamlining the X300 lineup to just two models. The standard X300 effectively replaces the mini positioning with its compact 6.31-inch screen while maintaining flagship specifications.
This strategic decision likely reflects market demand patterns, with users preferring either standard or pro-level features rather than a third tier.
Enhanced Durability and Battery Life
The phone will feature a USB 3.2 port and an Ultrasonic 3D fingerprint reader. The Vivo X300 is also expected to come with an IP68+IP69 rating. Battery improvements include a 6,000 mAh silicon carbon battery with 90W wired fast charging support as well as support for wireless fast charging.
Global Availability Timeline
While the China launch happens October 13th, other regions are expecting availability in December. This follows Vivo’s typical pattern of China-first launches followed by global rollouts.
The X300 series represents Vivo’s commitment to flagship photography and performance, powered by cutting-edge MediaTek silicon. With MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 leading the charge, expect significant performance improvements over previous generations.
