Key Takeaways
1. The Vivo X300 Pro is expected to launch in multiple countries, including Malaysia, with potential availability through imports from Hong Kong.
2. The phone features a Zeiss teleconverter that enhances the camera’s capabilities by converting an 85mm lens into a 200mm equivalent.
3. Performance tests indicate the Vivo X300 Pro’s Dimensity 9500 chip scores significantly higher than its predecessor, the Vivo X200 Pro, with a nearly 40% increase in AnTuTu scores.
4. The Vivo X300 Pro has a thickness of 7.99 mm and weighs 226 grams, with a larger battery of 6,510 mAh compared to the 6,040 mAh in the standard Vivo X300.

After Vivo shared a lot of details about its upcoming flagship camera with Zeiss back in September, and also released some official images, the tech media has shifted its attention to the Xiaomi 17 and Xiaomi 17 Pro, which are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, along with the OnePlus 15. But don’t forget about the Dimensity 9500 flagships, the Oppo Find X9 Pro and Vivo X300 Pro, which will also be hitting the market in just a few days, and the Find X9 Pro is anticipated to have a global launch shortly after that.
Vivo X300 Pro Launch Details
It looks like the Vivo X300 Pro might be launched in several countries beyond China this year, including Malaysia, where it was recently spotted at a certification agency. However, this doesn’t guarantee that the successor to the Vivo X200 Pro will be available in Europe in a few weeks, but hey, importing the global model from places like Hong Kong could be an option for those eager to get their hands on it.
For those looking for the Vivo X300 Pro on Weibo, you’ll find loads of camera samples (check them out below) and some hands-on pictures, as well as the first unboxing videos. One particular video reveals the full package, which includes the camera kit and the Zeiss teleconverter. Interestingly, this teleconverter seems to be the same as the one already available for the Vivo X200 Ultra, which changes the 85mm telephoto lens into a 200mm equivalent, ensuring better quality for faraway subjects compared to the standard AI-based digital zoom.
Performance Insights
Another video circulating on Weibo puts the Dimensity 9500 flagships to the test. We’ve also uploaded this video in 4K to YouTube, although it’s in Chinese and lacks subtitles. Still, many aspects are quite clear, such as the quick comparison with the Vivo X200 Pro at the start. Some specifications have been confirmed too, like the Vivo X300 Pro’s thickness of 7.99 mm and its weight of 226 grams. Early results from Dimensity 9500 tests show it scoring over 1 million points higher in AnTuTu v11 compared to the Vivo X200 Pro, marking an increase of nearly 40%.
Testers are expecting significantly better scores of around 30 to 40% in Geekbench and 3DMark Steel Normal Light as well. Beyond that, various other tests that are crucial for gamers, alongside other test videos, reaffirm some of the specifications of the Vivo X300 and Vivo X300 Pro. The Vivo X300 is equipped with a 6,040 mAh battery, while the Pro version boasts a larger 6,510 mAh battery, both capable of being charged at a max of 90 watts via USB-C. However, similar to what we saw with its predecessor, the global version might once again have a smaller battery, especially for the European model.
Recent Camera Samples
New images captured with the Zeiss camera have also surfaced on Weibo. There are 21 photos that kick off with two striking telephoto macro images. Following that, the Chinese National Day festivities take the spotlight in a series of night portraits, which were likely taken using the new zoom flash. Lastly, several pictures were snapped around the reopening of the Huajiang Canyon Bridge, currently recognized as the highest bridge in the world. Interestingly, some of these images were taken using the Zeiss teleconverter, as noted on Weibo.
