Vivo Compact Flagship Phone Leaked: New Camera Details

A recent tip from well-known source Digital Chat Station has given us new details about the camera setup of a future Vivo smartphone, which is expected to be part of the next-gen X500 series. For context, the Vivo X500 series is planed to launch later in 2026 as Vivo’s next flagship lineup, taking over from the X300 series.

Display and Processor Specifications

The upcomming phone is said to have a display that measures roughly 6.37 inches. Another interesting point is that it will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity chipset built on a 2nm process node. A prior leak had suggested the Dimensity 9600 series might be under the hood of the Vivo X500 series, though nothings confirmed yet.

Camera Hardware Leaks

Accoding to the leak, the new flagship compact phone will include a 50MP primary camera with a 1/1.28-inch sensor and LOFIC support, plus a 50MP ultra-wide lens and a 64MP periscope telephoto camera. These are some pretty high-end specs for a compact model, making it stand out from older phones in the same category.

• 50MP main camera (1/1.28-inch sensor with LOFIC)
• 50MP ultra-wide angle camera
• 64MP periscope telephoto lens

Pro Lineup and Periscope Features

The tipster notes that this compact version will likely be part of the Pro lineup. Interestingly, all Pro models are expected to come with periscope telephoto cameras that have an 85mm-equivalent focal length. Vivo hasn’t yet made any official statements about its next flagship series, so we have to take these rumors with a grain of salt.
