A new leak has revealed key details about Vivo’s upcoming X500e smartphone, which is expected to join the X500 series later this year. According to information shared by a source on Weibo, the vivo X500e will feature MediaTek’s upcoming Dimensity 9500 chipset. The device is also expected to include a 6.59-inch display and a large 7,500mAh battery.
The camera setup could be one of the phone’s biggest highlights. The leak suggests that the X500e will use a 50MP primary camera with a large 1/1.28-inch sensor. This should help improve image quality, especially in low-light conditions.
In addition, Vivo may equip the device with a periscope telephoto camera. Some comments attached to the leak claim that this could be the same 64MP periscope sensor found in the vivo X500 Pro. If true, users can expect strong zoom performance from the handset.
The report also points to another possible branding strategy. According to several commenters, Vivo may launch the same device as the S60 Pro in certain markets. The two phones could share similar, if not identical, specifications.
While Vivo has not confirmed any details yet, the leak indicates that the X500 family could make its debut in September. More information about the lineup is expected to emerge in the coming weeks.
For now, the X500e appears to be shaping up as a feature-packed smartphone. Its flagship-grade chipset, advanced camera hardware, and large battery could make it one of the more notable launches in vivo’s upcoming lineup.
