Earlier this week, Vivo Product Manager Han Boxiao confirmed details about the primary camera of the Vivo X300 and the periscope telephoto camera of the Vivo X300 Pro. Following this, several users raised questions about why Vivo continues to focus on higher megapixel counts. To clarify, Boxiao used Weibo to provide deeper insight into the imaging setup and related features of both smartphones.

Apart from featuring a 200-megapixel Samsung HPB primary camera, the Vivo X300 will also feature an upgraded telephoto lens. Boxiao revealed that it will include a 50-megapixel Zeiss APO periscope telephoto supported by the custom Sony LYT-602 sensor. The Zeiss T* coating helps reduce aberrations and improve clarity, while features such as telephoto macro add versatility for both portrait and distant photography.

In addition to the 200-megapixel Samsung HPB periscope telephoto, the Vivo X300 Pro will feature a Sony LYT-828 gimbal-grade primary sensor. It is a 50-megapixel sensor with a large 1/1.28-inch size and f/1.57 aperture, paired with advanced stabilization rated at CIPA 5.5 level. A 22nm low-power process enhances video capture, while Hybrid Frame-HDR extends dynamic range up to 100dB for brighter and more balanced results in complex lighting conditions.

Boxiao is yet to confirm the ultra-wide cameras of both phones. Rumours suggest that both models may include a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 or JN5 ultra-wide lens.

With a 92-degree field of view and precise detail capture, it is positioned as a capable choice for selfies, video calls, and vlogging.
