Vivo has officially unveiled its newest flagship in China. Following months of rumors and leaks, the company has introduced what might be its most feature-packed phone of the year. Now, let’s dive into this article.
Vivo X300 Pro Overview
Display and Design
The latest Vivo X300 Pro is the most premium flagship in the X300 Series (albeit X300 Ultra will launch much later), measuring 161.98 x 75.48 x 7.99mm and weighing 226 grams. Compared to the regular X300’s compact 6.31-inch display, the Pro steps up with a larger 6.78-inch BOE Q10+ OLED panel offering a 1.5K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 4500 nits, 2160Hz PWM dimming, and circular polarization 2.0 as well. Talking about the design, the IP69/69 rated X300 Pro features a slightly beveled aluminum frame along the edges, replacing the rounder look of the X200 Pro, which had curved glass on both the front and back, blending into the frame. The device is available in Free Blue, Simple White, Pure Black, and Wilderness Brown.
Performance and Software
The X300 Pro, alongside the regular X300, has become the first device to be powered by MediaTek’s new Dimensity 9500 chipset. The DImensity 9400 we had last year was already a beast and could function very smoothly, and this year’s will be no doubt be an even better one. Similarly, the X300 Pro pairs this chipset with either 12GB or 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM, along with storage options of 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB using quad-channel UFS 4.1 storage.
Moreover, the device will run on the recently released OriginOS 6 based on Android 16, which Vivo just revealed recently. On the Vivo X300 Pro, they’re also adding AIGC large model support for landscape creation and AI-customized beauty features here as well.

Camera System
The Vivo X300 Pro features a Zeiss-branded triple rear setup featuring a 50MP Sony LYT-828 main sensor with gimbal OIS, a 50MP Samsung JN1 ultrawide lens, and a 200MP Samsung HPB periscope telephoto camera. The telephoto unit supports OIS and is said to achieve CIPA 5.5-level stabilization, which Vivo executive Han Boxiao calls the “new king of telephoto lenses.” It also features Zeiss T* coating, APO certification for chromatic aberration control, and fluorite glass elements.
For selfies, there’s a 50MP Samsung JN1 front camera with a 92° field of view. The device supports focal lengths of 24mm, 50mm, and 85mm. Similarly, the Vivo X200 Pro is also powered by two chips, the new Imaging Chip VS1 for pre-processing and the V3+ for post-processing, along with a custom focus-tracking engine for better long-range motion capture. Compared to the standard X300, the Pro adds this secondary imaging chip, while the X300 itself uses a 200MP main sensor instead.
Battery and Charging
The X300 Pro packs a massive 6,510 mAh battery – significantly larger than the regular X300’s 6,040 mAh cell. It supports 90W wired and 40W wireless charging.
Additional Features and Accessories
It also features an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, dual speakers, an X-axis linear motor, and Vivo’s Universal Signal Amplification System 3.0 with a 1+4 chip design. For connectivity, you get the usual Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, an IR blaster, USB 3.2 Gen 1, and kilometre-level network-free communication support. Vivo has launched a special Beidou Satellite Communication Edition on the X300 Pro. This variant will be available in a single 16GB+1TB configuration and will offer satellite connectivity features for areas without cellular coverage.
The vivo Zeiss 2.35x telephoto teleconverter kit that was revealed alongside the vivo X200 Ultra last year will also be compatible with the X300 Pro. It will feature a dark black tone compared to the silver version of the regular X300.
