# Vivo X300 Pro

The **vivo X300 Pro** is an Android flagship smartphone produced by the Chinese manufacturer vivo, announced globally in late 2025 as the higher-end model of the X300 series. It is positioned primarily as a camera phone, built around a 200-megapixel ZEISS APO telephoto camera, and is the first phone shipped with MediaTek's Dimensity 9500 chipset and the first vivo phone sold outside China with the [OriginOS](https://www.edgepedia.org/origin-os) interface instead of FunTouch OS.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup>

## Design and display

The X300 Pro moves the X Pro line fully to a flat design, with a flat front, a flat glass back, and a 1.1 mm symmetric bezel, departing from the curved glass of earlier models.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[5](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/x300-pro)</sup> It measures 161.98 × 75.48 × 7.99 mm and weighs 226 g, slightly shorter, thinner, and narrower than the X200 Pro.<sup>[3](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/param/x300-pro)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[6](https://cadenaser.com/nacional/2025/12/09/probamos-el-vivo-x300-pro-el-movil-que-sonaba-con-ser-una-camara-convencional-y-lo-logro-cadena-ser/)</sup> Colors are Black, White, Blue, and Brown.<sup>[3](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/param/x300-pro)</sup>

The 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED panel runs at 2800 × 1260 with 452 PPI, an adaptive 1–120 Hz refresh rate, and a claimed 4,500-nit local peak brightness.<sup>[3](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/param/x300-pro)</sup> Independent measurement found lower real-world figures: about 2,469 nits at 20 percent average picture level and 1,888 nits full-screen, both rated excellent by the tester.<sup>[7](https://www.phonearena.com/reviews/vivo-x300-pro-review_id7747)</sup> vivo's Diamond Armor Glass is advertised as offering 110 percent stronger drop resistance than conventional glass.<sup>[5](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/x300-pro)</sup>

## Camera system

**Telephoto.** The headline camera is a 200 MP Samsung ISOCELL HPB sensor behind an 85 mm equivalent f/2.67 lens with optical stabilization and 3.7× optical zoom. Its 1/1.4-inch optical format is among the largest used in a smartphone telephoto, larger than the 1/1.56-inch HP5 in the competing Oppo Find X9 Pro.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup> The HPB is an evolution of the X200 Pro's HP9, customized to vivo's requirements.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup> The lens focuses as close as 14 cm, which reviewers singled out as a strength for close-up and macro work, and image quality holds up well to about 10× with usable results at 20×.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup>

**Main and ultrawide.** The main camera uses the new Sony Lytia LYT-828, replacing the LYT-818 of the X200 Pro at the same 1/1.28-inch size, with the focal length moving from 23 mm to 24 mm and a 5.5-stop CIPA stabilization rating.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup> The ultrawide keeps the 50 MP Samsung JN1 sensor and 15 mm lens from the previous generation; reviewers found its output improved over the X200 Pro despite unchanged hardware, though it remains a step below the main and telephoto cameras.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup> The front camera is also a 50 MP JN1, now with autofocus and a 20 mm equivalent lens, ending years of fixed-focus selfie cameras on vivo X Pro models.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup>

**Video.** The rear system records 8K at 30 fps, 4K at up to 120 fps including 10-bit Log and Dolby Vision HDR, and 1080p at up to 240 fps.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup>

## Telephoto extender and grip

A capability carried down from the X200 Ultra is support for the vivo ZEISS 2.35× Telephoto Extender, an attachable lens kit that includes a dedicated case with a bayonet mount, a battery grip, and a neck strap.<sup>[8](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p5.php)</sup> The extender gives a native 200 mm equivalent focal length, with usable if softer results at 400 mm and increasingly AI-assisted output beyond that.<sup>[9](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p6.php)</sup> Unlike on the X200 Ultra, the extender works within the phone's normal camera modes such as Portrait, Night, and video, rather than a separate mode.<sup>[9](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p6.php)</sup> The battery grip carries its own 2,300 mAh cell, up from 1,500 mAh on the X200 Ultra's grip, and adds a two-stage shutter, zoom lever, control dial, and record button.<sup>[9](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896p6.php)</sup> The extender kit was listed at about €600 as a separate purchase in Europe.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup>

## Performance and software

The X300 Pro is the first phone with MediaTek's Dimensity 9500, a 3 nm chip with a 1 + 3 + 4 all-big-core CPU configuration.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[3](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/param/x300-pro)</sup> vivo co-defined the chip with MediaTek, pairing it with a V3+ imaging chip.<sup>[5](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/x300-pro)</sup> In testing, its CPU scored clearly above the Dimensity 9400 and marginally above the [Snapdragon 8 Elite](https://www.edgepedia.org/snapdragon-8-elite) in single-core work, but GPU stress tests showed sustained performance dropping to previous-generation flagship levels; real-world tasks and demanding games ran smoothly.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup>

The phone ships with OriginOS 6 on [Android 16](https://www.edgepedia.org/android-16), the first vivo phone outside China with OriginOS after vivo dropped the FunTouch OS branding globally.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup> vivo's security page lists the X300 Pro with security updates through at least November 2032 and OS upgrades through Android 21.<sup>[4](https://www.vivo.com/en/security)</sup> Storage configurations are 256 GB with 12 GB of RAM, 512 GB with 16 GB, and 1 TB with 16 GB, using UFS 4.1 and LPDDR5X.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup>

## Battery and charging

The battery differs by region. Overseas models except Europe carry a 6,510 mAh typical-capacity silicon-anode cell, while European models get 5,440 mAh.<sup>[3](https://www.vivo.com/en/products/param/x300-pro)</sup> Charging is 90 W wired FlashCharge and 40 W wireless with vivo's own pads, plus reverse wired and wireless charging.<sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup> A full charge took 31 minutes on a 90 W charger in one test, and the phone also supports PPS charging, reaching full charge in about 58 minutes on a 65 W PPS charger.<sup>[7](https://www.phonearena.com/reviews/vivo-x300-pro-review_id7747)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup>

The regional battery split was the most consistent criticism in reviews. With the 5,440 mAh European unit, one reviewer recorded four-and-a-half to six hours of screen-on time in typical use, well short of the X200 Pro's roughly eight hours, while the larger-cell Asian model was described as delivering two-day battery life.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://www.androidcentral.com/phones/vivo/vivo-x300-pro-review)</sup>

## Reception

Reviewers ranked the X300 Pro among the strongest camera phones of its generation, with the telephoto the standout: Android Central called it the best camera phone available at the time of review, and GSMArena scored it 4.5 out of 5.<sup>[10](https://www.androidcentral.com/phones/vivo/vivo-x300-pro-review)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[1](https://www.gsmarena.com/vivo_x300_pro-review-2896.php)</sup> Recurring criticisms besides the European battery were the mid-tier ultrawide sensor, reduced sustained GPU performance, and fewer general AI features than Google or Samsung rivals.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup> Pricing at launch was about €1,400 in Europe, with US marketing at $1,099.<sup>[2](https://www.androidauthority.com/vivo-x300-pro-review-3609620/)</sup> In India, the series debuted on December 2, 2025, with ZEISS co-engineered optics and OriginOS 6.<sup>[11](https://vivonewsroom.in/press-release/vivo-x300-series-debuts-in-india-redefining-flagship-imaging-and-performance-with-zeiss-and-originos-6/)</sup>
