Overview
- Multiple tipsters and database traces reported this week that Vivo is developing an X500 series to follow the X300 lineup, with leaks centered on a mid‑size 6.59‑inch flat display for the standard model.
- The standard X500 is repeatedly tipped to use an upgraded Dimensity 9500 variant referred to as DX5 while higher-tier X500 Pro and Pro Max units are expected to adopt newer 2nm Dimensity 9600‑class chips.
- Leakers say the standard X500 will carry an unusually large battery of about 7,500 mAh, signaling a clear focus on long run time for at least the base model.
- Camera reports converge on a flagship main sensor and telephoto combo, naming a 50MP 1/1.28‑inch primary sensor alongside a periscope telephoto (reports vary on exact telephoto specs).
- All specifications, the suggested October–November 2026 launch window, and any India pricing remain unconfirmed and are based on Weibo posts, tipsters and early IMEI records so final details may change.
