Vivo is getting ready to expand its T5 series in India with a new 5G model, and the company has already locked in an official launch date. They’re teasing a few key features, pitching it as a slim phone with a high-refresh-rate screen in the mid-range space.

Vivo has confirmed the T5 5G will launch in India on September 2, 2026. It’ll come in two colours, Royal Bronze and Silver Green, and go on sale through Flipkart. The phone is expected to land somewhere in the ₹40,000 to ₹50,000 range.

The brand also confirmed the Dimensity 7500 Turbo chipset, claiming an AnTuTu score of 1.2 million points and on-device AI performance of 10 tokens/s on a 3-billion-parameter model.

What we know so far: the phone packs a big 7,050mAh battery. The display is a 1.5K 3D curved AMOLED with a 144Hz refresh rate and 2000 nits peak brightness, all in a body that’s about 7.9mm thick. Vivo is highlighting that as one of the slimmest designs in its class for a phone with a battery over 7,000mAh. Up front there’s a hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera.

The back uses a Skyline design similar to the Vivo S2, and teaser images show a dual-camera setup. It’ll ship with OriginOS 6 based on Android 16. RAM and storage options haven’t been detailed yet. The T5 5G joins the rest of the T5 lineup (T5 Pro 5G, T5 Lite 5G, and T5x 5G). Design and core hardware look very close to the recently launched iQOO Z11, so this could be a closely related or rebranded version tailored for the Vivo brand in India.

With the launch just a few days away, more details, especially around camera specs, battery life, and charging speed, should start rolling out soon. The mix of a high-refresh curved display, big battery, and slim body makes the T5 5G look like a practical mid-range option focused on everyday performance and battery life.
