A New Chapter in Vivo’s Flagship Journey
The Vivo X300 Series is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated smartphone launches of 2025. With whispers of sleek designs, powerhouse performance, and game-changing camera upgrades, the upcoming lineup has tech fans counting down the days to its expected October release.
From the compact standard X300 to the feature-packed X300 Pro, Vivo looks ready to raise the bar once again in the flagship arena.
Vivo X300 Series
The hype around the Vivo X300 Series is quietly building, and it feels like Vivo is lining up one of its boldest flagship releases yet for October 2025.
If recent rumors, leaks, and tipster chatter are to be believed, this lineup is ready to push boundaries—from camera tech to battery size, and even design.
Release Timeline and Models
The Vivo X300 and X300 Pro are expected to launch in China just after the National Day holiday, meaning “sometime after October 8” is the penciled-in window.
Unlike last year’s X200 series, which included a Pro Mini and saw the Ultra added later, this round looks more streamlined: just the vanilla and Pro, at least for now.
For anyone keeping score, that’s one fewer model to juggle, but with upgrades worth the anticipation. (The X300 Ultra might drop Q2 2026, so hold onto those rumors for next spring.)
Design and Display
The X300 Pro runs with the centered circular camera module of its predecessor—the X200 Pro—but expect a sleeker, flatter 6.8-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and eye-melting 4500 nits peak brightness.
Meanwhile, the X300 itself is rumored to sport a compact 6.3-inch screen, making it a rare option for fans of smaller flagships.
Performance
Both models will use the cutting-edge MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset, showing Vivo’s confidence in MediaTek’s new flagship silicon. This isn’t just “fast enough”; it’s aiming for top-of-the-benchmark charts and smoother gaming.
RAM will reportedly start at a beefy 12GB (with virtual memory options likely baked in), and on storage, expect at least 256GB UFS 4.0—because loading screens and app stutter are so last year.
Battery and Charging
Here’s a headline: the X300 Pro may be packing a massive 7,000mAh battery—an upgrade from the X200 Pro’s already impressive 6,000mAh cell. Throw in 120W fast charging, and it sounds like a phone built for heavy use, but also quick top-offs when life is too busy to sit by a charger.
Camera Tech
For camera fans, Vivo is doubling down:
-
Zeiss-backed optics, with a new generation of Zeiss coatings for even better performance in tough lighting.
-
X300 Pro could sport the Sony LYT-828 sensor, a 50MP powerhouse with large pixels, boosting both detail and dynamic range.
-
Add a rumored 200MP Samsung periscope telephoto shooter and another 50MP ultrawide.
-
Expect laser autofocus, Zeiss T* lens coating, and 4K recording—all stuff that points to pro-level imaging in your pocket.
The regular X300 isn’t left out either. Leaks hint at flagship sensors, but in a more compact body, making it a stealthy pick for on-the-go shooters.
Satellite Messaging and Other Features
A special edition of the X300 may support BeiDou satellite messaging, letting it connect in areas with poor cellular coverage—a feature likely reserved for the China market but extremely futuristic.
No headphone jack, of course, but you do get flagship-level water resistance (IP69), in-display fingerprint sensor, ultra-fast WiFi and Bluetooth, and all the trimmings you’d expect in 2025.
Ecosystem and Launch Extras
Alongside the smartphones, Vivo will launch new earbuds—likely TWS with high-res audio—and hints at expanding their IoT lineup next year. If all goes to plan, there could be new wearables joining the Vivo family once the dust settles from X300’s debut.
