Vivo X300 launch details: How to watch the unveiling

The Vivo X300 is launching today, October 13, in China. The event will be live on Vivo’s official Weibo account as well as on its website. You can click here to visit Vivo’s website and watch the live stream. The launch event will begin in China at 7 p.m. local time, and if you are in India and wish to watch it, the unveiling will take place at 4:30 p.m. Indian Standard Time.

Vivo X300: What do we know about the specs?

So far, we know that both the Vivo X300 Pro and X300 will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset, which is the successor to last year’s Dimensity 9400 chipset that powered the X200 Pro, X200, and X200 Pro Mini. This is also a 3nm chipset.

The Vivo X300 Pro is expected to feature up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage. The phones are likely to run on Vivo’s OriginOS 6, which is also expected to arrive in India this time.

In terms of design, major changes are anticipated. Vivo is ditching the quad-curved display in favour of a flat display, making the phone appear even boxier compared to the previous generation.

As for the cameras, the X300 Pro could feature a ZEISS 200MP APO telephoto shooter, similar to the X200 Pro, and Vivo is expected to continue its partnership with Zeiss for camera tuning and branding for other sensors as well.

The X300 Pro is also rumoured to come with a 6,510mAh battery, an upgrade from the X200 Pro’s 6,000mAh unit, and it is expected to feature an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
