Just when it seemed that Vivo was done with the Vivo X300 series as it gears up for the Vivo X500 series launch in September, recent reports have revealed the existence of a new X-series model called the Vivo X300e. The handset is expected to debut soon in China, and it is also likely to launch in global markets. In all likelihood, the X300e could make its global debut alongside the Vivo X Fold 6.
Interestingly, the Vivo X300e is tipped to feature the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset that powers the recently announced Vivo X300 FE. With both phones expected to target the premium flagship segment, buyers may wonder whether it is worth waiting for the X300e or picking up the X300 FE. Here’s how the two compare based on everything known so far.
1Vivo X300e vs Vivo X300 FE: Design and display
The biggest visible difference between the two devices is likely to be their size.
The Vivo X300e is expected to feature a 6.59-inch OLED flat display with a resolution of 2750 × 1260 pixels. While the resolution has surfaced, there is still no confirmation on whether the panel supports a 120Hz or 144Hz refresh rate.
The Vivo X300 FE, on the other hand, comes with a more compact 6.31-inch AMOLED flat display offering a 1.5K (2640 × 1216) resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, up to 5,000 nits peak brightness, and 4320Hz PWM dimming with DC dimming support.
If you prefer compact smartphones that are easier to use with one hand, the X300 FE has the advantage. Those wanting a slightly larger screen for gaming and multimedia may find the X300e more appealing.
