New leaks reveal the Vivo X300 Ultra's redesigned teleconverter, potential optical zoom capabilities, and details about the X300 Max variant and Vivo's upcoming mini camera.
Recent leaks have shed new light on Vivo's upcoming flagship smartphone, the X300 Ultra, along with details about a larger variant called the X300 Max and the company's first dedicated mini camera.
Redesigned Teleconverter with Enhanced Video Quality
According to well-known leaker Smart Pikachu, the Vivo X300 Ultra features a completely redesigned teleconverter that delivers improved video quality. Digital Chat Station, another reliable source who claims to have seen test units firsthand, states that this teleconverter is "far ahead" of competing smartphones.
Speculation is mounting about what makes this teleconverter special, with optical zoom being mentioned multiple times. This could potentially confirm earlier rumors about optical zoom capabilities, though possibly through external optics rather than integrated directly into the smartphone like the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.
Comprehensive X300 Ultra Specifications
The Vivo X300 Ultra is shaping up to be a powerhouse device with several standout features:
- Camera System: 200 MP duo consisting of a 1/1.12-inch Sony LYT-901 main camera and a 1/1.4-inch telephoto lens, expanded with a 5 MP multispectral color sensor
- Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
- Display: Flat 6.82-inch 2K LTPO OLED display
- Battery: 7,000 mAh with 100W fast charging and 40W wireless charging
- Durability: IP69 certification
- Special Features: New Zeiss T* coating and improved night photography
The device is also expected to be the heaviest ultra flagship on the market, which isn't surprising given its substantial battery capacity.
X300 Max Variant Announced
Digital Chat Station recently mentioned a Vivo X300 Max on Weibo, which will apparently launch simultaneously with the X300 Ultra in China. This variant is expected to be a larger version of the X300 with similar camera capabilities, potentially targeting users who prefer bigger devices without sacrificing photographic performance.
Satellite Connectivity and Mini Camera Development
A second X300 Ultra variant (model number V2547DA) has completed standard certification in China, distinguished primarily by its integrated satellite receiver components. This suggests Vivo is expanding its connectivity options beyond traditional cellular networks.
More intriguingly, Chinese media reports indicate that Vivo is developing a dedicated mini-camera slated for release in 2026. This device could be similar to the DJI Osmo Pocket series, designed specifically for vlogging and portable content creation. According to reports, this development has even been confirmed by Vivo itself.
Ultra-Wide Angle Excellence Continues
Building on the X200 Ultra's strengths, the X300 Ultra is expected to feature an enhanced 1/1.28-inch ultra-wide-angle camera. Digital Chat Station notes that video recordings in particular will benefit from what's described as the industry's best ultra-wide angle, maintaining Vivo's competitive edge in this crucial camera specification.
The combination of these features positions the Vivo X300 Ultra as a serious contender in the premium smartphone market, particularly for photography enthusiasts and content creators who demand exceptional camera performance.
