Overview
- Multiple leaks say the unannounced X500 series will use a 6.59‑inch flat LTPO 1.5K OLED and an unusually large battery of about 7,500 mAh, though Vivo has not confirmed these specs.
- Recent engineering‑unit reports indicate the standard X500 prototype runs a 3nm MediaTek Dimensity 9500 (DX5) rather than the upcoming 2nm Dimensity 9600, which could be reserved for Pro/Pro Max/Ultra variants.
- Camera leaks describe a flagship‑grade main sensor at 50MP on a 1/1.28‑inch module plus a 64MP periscope telephoto (reported as a ~1/2‑inch Sony IMX06H), with other camera details still unconfirmed.
- Coverage projects an October–November 2026 debut and premium pricing in markets like India, but final launch timing, exact prices, charging speeds and variant allocations remain speculative.
- Analysts say the reported parts choices reflect common cost and supply trade‑offs in multi‑tier flagship lines and could let Vivo offer a lower‑cost base model while keeping top performance for pricier variants.
