Vivo X500 Pro: Chipset and camera details tipped
According to the leak, the device is currently being tested with MediaTek’s next-generation 2nm Dimensity 9600 series chipset and could become one of only two “Pro” compact flagship phones expected later this year.
The tipster also revealed early camera specifications of the engineering prototype. The Vivo X500 Pro is said to feature a 50-megapixel primary camera with a large 1/1.28-inch sensor and LOFIC technology, alongside a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera. The setup may also include a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera with around 3x optical zoom.
While some may assume that the 64-megapixel unit could be the OmniVision OV64B sensor, which has appeared on several smartphones over the past few years, tipster Digital Chat Station has reportedly clarified that the Vivo X500 Pro’s periscope telephoto camera will instead use Sony’s new IMX06H sensor. This also suggests that a 200-megapixel camera may remain exclusive to the Vivo X500 Pro Max in the lineup, where it is expected to serve as the periscope telephoto camera.
As per other reports, the Vivo X500 Pro will have a 6.37-inch flat OLED LTPO panel with support for a 1.5K resolution. It is also expected to pack a 7,000mAh+ battery. Being a next-generation flagship, the device is expected to come preloaded with OriginOS 7-based Android 17.
As far as launch is concerned, the X500 series is expected to break cover in September in China. Globally, it is expected to debut in November or December this year.
