Vivo is gearing up for a major launch in the premium smartphone segment in India with the introduction of the Vivo X300 series on December 2. The upcoming flagship phones, already unveiled in China, are set to compete with popular models like the OnePlus 15 and the Oppo Find X9 lineup. Anticipation surrounding the launch has been fueled by leaked information, indicating that Vivo may position the X300 models at a higher price point than initially anticipated. This strategic move underscores the brand’s focus on the camera quality, build, and advanced features, particularly on the Pro variant.
The base model of the Vivo X300, equipped with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, is rumored to be priced at Rs 75,999. The higher variants with 12GB + 512GB and 16GB + 512GB configurations may cost Rs 81,999 and Rs 85,999, respectively. On the other hand, the X300 Pro is expected to be available in a single configuration of 16GB RAM and 512GB storage, priced at Rs 1,09,999, putting it in line with the Oppo Find X9 Pro’s premium offering.
Despite some conflicting leaks regarding pricing, Vivo has confirmed the launch of the Telephoto Extender Kit for the X300 series, speculated to be priced at Rs 20,999, offering a more affordable alternative to Oppo’s Hasselblad Teleconverter Kit at Rs 29,999.
In terms of specifications, the X300 Pro boasts a 6.78-inch 1.5K BOE Q10+ LTPO OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chip. The highlight of the Pro model is its advanced camera setup, featuring a 50MP main camera with OIS, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 200MP periscope telephoto camera. The device also offers a 50MP selfie camera and impressive post-processing capabilities.
Powering the X300 Pro is a 6,510mAh battery supporting 90W wired and 40W wireless charging, along with premium features like dual speakers, in-display fingerprint sensor, and IP68 protection. On the connectivity front, it includes Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and GPS.
The standard Vivo X300 shares many features with the Pro model, including the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 processor, similar software, and charging capabilities. It offers a smaller form factor with a 6.31-inch display and a 6,040mAh battery, catering to users who prefer compact flagship devices. The camera setup differs slightly from the Pro model but maintains the high-quality standards expected from Vivo.
The Vivo X300 series launch event in India will commence at 12:00 PM, and further updates can be followed on India Today Tech for comprehensive coverage of the event. Stay tuned for more details on the potential specifications and pricing of the Vivo X300 lineup.
