Vivo X500, X500 Pro and Pro Max Specifications Compared
While all three smartphones are expected to share some flagship features, the leak points to differences in their display sizes, processors and camera hardware. Here is a comparison of the key specifications revealed in the leak:
| Specs | Vivo X500 | Vivo X500 Pro | Vivo X500 Pro Max |
| Display | 6.59-inch 1.5K LTPS OLED | 6.59-inch 1.5K LTPS OLED | 6.85-inch 2K LTPO OLED |

Vivo X500 Pro Max Could Feature 200MP Periscope Camera
The Vivo X500 Pro Max features a triple rear camera system comprising a 50MP primary sensor with a 1/1.28-inch sensor size, a 50MP ultra-wide camera and a 200MP periscope telephoto camera with 3.5x optical zoom.
The 200MP periscope camera is a notable upgrade over the telephoto hardware tipped for the other two models. The Vivo X500 and X500 Pro are both expected to feature 64MP telephoto cameras although the standard X500 is listed with 3x optical zoom and OIS, while the Pro model is tipped to offer 3.5x zoom.
A 200MP periscope sensor could allow the Pro Max to capture more detail when photographing distant subjects. Its higher resolution may also provide greater flexibility for cropping and zoom photography depending on the sensor and image processing.
The main camera hardware appears consistent across the lineup with all three phones tipped to use a 50MP sensor measuring 1/1.28 inches. They are also expected to share a 50MP ultra-wide camera.
Vivo X500 Series Battery, Display and Charging Details

The standard Vivo X500 is tipped to pack a 7,500mAh battery, while the Vivo X500 Pro could feature a smaller 6,510mAh cell. The top-end X500 Pro Max is expected to offer the largest battery in the lineup at 8,000mAh.
All three smartphones support 90W wired charging and 40W wireless charging. This would give buyers the same reported charging speeds regardless of which model they choose.
The display configurations also reflect the different positioning of the three devices. The standard X500 is expected to use a 6.59-inch 1.5K LTPS OLED panel, while the Pro model could offer a more compact 6.36-inch 1.5K LTPO OLED screen. The Pro Max is tipped to feature a larger 6.85-inch 2K LTPO OLED display. All three models are expected to support a 144Hz refresh rate and feature flat screens.
This means buyers looking for a compact flagship may prefer the X500 Pro, while those prioritising a larger, sharper display could consider the Pro Max.
Vivo X500 Series: Zeiss Extender Gen 2 and Watch GT 2 Launch
Apart from the three smartphones, Vivo is also expected to introduce two accessories alongside the X500 series in India.
The first is the Zeiss Extender Gen 2, an external telephoto accessory designed to extend the camera capabilities. It is expected to be part of the company’s imaging-focused product lineup although its India pricing and compatibility details have not been revealed in the latest leak.
The Vivo Watch GT 2 is also tipped to launch at the same event. Earlier information suggests that the smartwatch could feature a 2.07-inch AMOLED display with up to 2,400 nits of brightness, up to 25 days of battery life, and Black and Off White colour options.
Vivo has yet to officially confirm the India launch date, pricing or specifications of these products. More details should become available as the reported launch date approaches.
