Vivo has confirmed key details of its upcoming flagship named the Vivo X300 Pro, highlighting the phone’s advanced telephoto system. Now, the latest updates from official sources share more details about the upcoming smartphone series. Here’s what we know so far.

Strengths of the Vivo X300 Pro’s telephoto system

On Weibo, Vivo product manager Han Boxiao revealed that the handset will use a 200MP Samsung HPB sensor for its telephoto camera. It will be supported by Zeiss T* coating, fluorite glass elements and APO certification to minimise chromatic aberration.

The sensor is 1/1.4-inch in size with an 85mm equivalent focal length, making it well-suited for portraits and long-range photography.

Han explained that while the X300 Pro may not surpass Vivo’s flagship X200 Ultra in every aspect, the new telephoto setup stands out in four areas, stability, speed, clarity, and transparency. It supports CIPA 5.5-level stabilisation, currently the highest rating in the industry, ensuring steady shots even at long distances.

The phone also incorporates a custom focus tracking engine, developed in partnership with external collaborators, which enhances motion capture for subjects that are far away.

In addition, Vivo’s in-house “Blueprint” algorithm works in tandem with the hardware to deliver sharper telephoto photos without relying heavily on AI enhancements.

Thanks to Zeiss coating and upgraded optics, Vivo promises images that are cleaner, more natural, and free from common distortions, while also offering better colour accuracy.

Hardware and imaging upgrades across the X300 series

Beyond the telephoto lens, the Vivo X300 Pro is expected to run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chipset. Its main camera will be a 50MP Sony LYT828 sensor with a 1/1.3-inch size and strong HDR capabilities. Vivo is also equipping the lineup with its VS1 pre-processing chip and the V3+ dual-core imaging system for further improvements in photography and video.

At its Vision Conference, Vivo teased future AI-driven features for the X300 series, including AIGC-powered landscape creation and personalised beauty modes, showcasing how it plans to integrate AI in more creative ways. The X300 series is expected to launch in October, following MediaTek’s announcement of the Dimensity 9500.

Vivo X300 Series Design Leak

Meanwhile, leaks from other sources are also surfacing online. Tipster Digital Chat Station recently shared early design insights, suggesting that the X300 series will feature a large circular rear camera module with a smaller decorative ring for a cleaner aesthetic.

Both the X300 and X300 Pro are tipped to adopt flat displays with wide-radius corners, while bezels are expected to be slimmer than those on the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

The new models will reportedly introduce a refreshed user interface, described as having an “Apple-like” visual feel.

Vivo X300 and X300 Pro – Rumoured specifications

According to leaks, both models will debut with the Dimensity 9500 chipset, making them the first smartphones powered by the processor.

Vivo X300 is expected to sport a 6.3-inch 1.5K display, a 200MP Samsung HPB main sensor (1/1.4-inch), a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. On the other hand, Vivo X300 Pro will likely to feature a 6.8-inch 1.5K display, a 50MP Sony LYT-828 main camera, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 200MP Samsung HPB periscope telephoto sensor with a prism-based design.
