vivo launched the all-new imaging flagship vivo X500 Series in Shanghai. As the opening chapter of vivo’s company-level strategy to elevate dynamic imaging, the vivo X500, vivo X500 Pro and vivo X500 Pro Max aimed to deliver “dual excellence in photo and video experience”, redefining the boundaries of mobile imaging.
vivo’s imaging strategy has always focused on one goal: continuously elevating and exceeding expectations in scenarios users care about most, such as portraits, telephoto and concerts.
Today, video and live content have become the most natural ways for users to record life, express emotions and share perspectives, and mobile imaging has fully entered the era of dynamic imaging.
Building on a decade of accumulated static imaging technology, vivo continues to deepen its three foundational capabilities, sensors, chips and algorithms to build the complete system capabilities required for dynamic imaging, completing another leap from static to dynamic in smartphone imaging. Huang Tao, Vice President of vivo, stated at the launch event:
“The professional ceiling of the vivo X500 Series must be high enough to become a productivity tool for creators; the barrier to a great user experience must be low enough for anyone to capture cinematic footage effortlessly.”
vivo X500 Pro Max debuts the vivo x Sony LYTIA L910 sensor, delivering 17 EV Ultra-High Dynamic Range in true output; it features the 200 MP ZEISS APO Telephoto Camera, supporting the 400 mm Equivalent vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra; it offers exclusive leading imaging specifications including 4K 240 fps Cinematic Slow-Mo Video and 8K Native Live; it is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro, integrating vivo’s Imaging Chip V3+ & the Pro Imaging Chip VS1+; it is equipped with a 2K ZEISS Master Color Display and an 7,800 mAh BlueVolt Battery.
The entire series runs OriginOS 7, achieving comprehensive breakthroughs in imaging, performance, system and design. Following its global launch, the vivo X500 Series is rumoured to arrive in Malaysia in October 2026. Stay tuned for further updates via vivo Malaysia’s official website and social media.
