Vivo is expected to unveil the Vivo X500, X500 Pro, and X500 Pro Max later this month in China. Ahead of the launch, the company has already revealed camera details for the X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max. Now, Vivo Product Manager Han Boxiao has confirmed key camera specifications for the standard X500, giving us a clearer idea of what to expect from the upcoming phone.
Vivo X500 camera specifications confirmed
The Vivo X500 will reportedly bring the same Sony LYT-828 primary sensor used by the X300 Pro to the standard model. The 50-megapixel sensor measures 1/1.28-inch, making it the largest main camera sensor ever used on an X-series standard edition. It will also feature Zeiss gimbal-level stabilization with a CIPA 5.5 rating, which should help with both photography and video recording. This is a notable change from the X300, which featured a custom 200-megapixel HPB main camera.
The telephoto camera is getting similar treatment. Vivo is expected to use the Sony LYTIA-610 sensor found in the X500 Pro’s APO telephoto camera. The 64-megapixel sensor will support CIPA 5.5 stabilization and 4K video recording at 120fps. The phone is also said to support Vivo’s compact Lipstick 200 telephoto extender, potentially making the X500 an interesting option for concert photography.
The official details align with last month’s leak from DCS who claimed that the X500 could feature a 50-megapixel Sony main camera, a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a 64-megapixel Sony periscope telephoto camera with a 1/2-inch sensor and a 70mm equivalent focal length. Telephoto macro support was also said to be under consideration. A 50-megapixel autofocus selfie camera is also rumored, although that detail has not been confirmed yet.
The remaining specifications reportedly include a 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED display, a Dimensity 9500-series chipset, and a 7,500mAh battery. The phone has also received 3C certification with support for 90W wired charging, while 40W wireless charging could return from the previous generation. It is expected to run OriginOS 7 based on Android 17.
