Vivo X500 Ultra key details emerge
According to DCS, the Vivo X500 Ultra is tentatively scheduled to launch in March or April 2027. This timeline would be in line with expectations, as the X300 Ultra debuted in March 2026.
The tipster further mentioned that the Vivo X500 Ultra will feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset (SM8975). On the front, it will have a 6.85-inch BOE LTPO display with 2K+ resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. It is expected to feature an LIPO flat display with symmetrical bezels and rounded corners, as well as an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
The leak does not provide any information about the device’s camera capabilities, but the phone may pack a battery with a capacity of around 7,000mAh.
Recent reports have revealed that the Vivo X500 Ultra is being tested with a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera featuring different sensor sizes, including 1/1.12-inch, 1/1.3-inch, and 1/1.4-inch options. However, it remains unclear which sensor will be used in the final device.
For the main camera, Vivo may use either a 50-megapixel 1/1.28-inch LOFIC sensor with a 35mm focal length or a 200-megapixel 1/1.12-inch LOFIC sensor. It is advisable to wait for further reports to learn more about the exact camera specifications.
