While it’s clear that the launch won’t be this year, vivo is clearing the last few hurdles before it can make the X300 Ultra official. The phone (V2536A) was just certified in China with support for 100W fast charging.
Interestingly, this is 100W USB PPS charging – 20V at 5A. This will enable fast charging on par with vivo’s own FlashCharge system.

A recent leak revealed that the vivo X300 Ultra will have a large 7,000mAh battery. For comparison, the X200 Ultra had a 6,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging (plus 40W wireless). The current vivo X300 Pro is equipped with a 6,510mAh battery, though note that this is for the Chinese unit – the global version has a smaller 5,440mAh battery. This might be the case for the global Ultra too, though we don’t have details yet.
And yes, we do expect the vivo X300 Ultra to be available globally. The phone will use two 200MP sensors – a large 1/1.12” for the main and a 1/1.4” for the telephoto camera. It will also have a massive 1/1.28” sensor in its 50MP ultra-wide camera. That’s larger than the main camera sensors on some recent flagships! Also, unlike its X300 siblings, the Ultra is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 instead of the Dimensity 9500.
The vivo X300 Ultra is expected to launch around the end of Q1 next year – the X200 Ultra launched in April.
