The latest information comes to light via Beebom, which shared an exclusive in-depth video on the Vivo X300 FE. The video highlights all the upgrades and downgrades compared to its predecessor, the Vivo X200 FE.

Moreover, the unit they unboxed is the Chinese variant, the Vivo S50 Pro Mini, and they confirmed that the same S50 Pro Mini will launch in India with the Vivo X300 FE moniker.

Vivo X300 FE: What to Expect

The Vivo X300 FE will debut with a refreshed design compared to its predecessor. It now features a horizontal camera module instead of the vertical layout seen on the X200 FE, resembling the design language of Pixel smartphones and the iPhone Air. The back panel appears to have a colour-shifting finish, changing shades based on how light hits it.

Although the phone will weigh slightly more at 192 grams compared to the X200 FE, it still looks compact, similar to the previous-generation model. The device also features an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.

This year, the Vivo X300 FE will support 40W wireless charging, alongside 90W wired fast charging, and pack the same 6,500mAh battery. Under the hood, the smartphone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC, replacing the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor used in the X200 FE. It is expected to offer up to 16GB LPDDR5X Ultra RAM and up to 512GB UFS 4.1 storage, with support for up to 120fps gameplay.

On the software front, the phone will run OriginOS 6. It is said to feature a 6.31-inch 1.5K LTPO display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, which would be an upgrade from the optical scanner on the previous model.

Moreover, the camera parts remain unchanged this time. The Vivo X300 FE is said to retain a triple rear camera setup, including a 50MP Sony IMX921 primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto camera. For selfies, it will feature a 50MP front camera. Vivo has also removed the Aura Light from this model. The device is expected to support 4K video recording at 60fps.

Vivo X300 FE India Price (Expected)

In China, the Vivo S50 Pro Mini was launched at 3,699 yuan (around ₹47,400), which is a 200 yuan (around Rs 2,582) price increase over its predecessor. The publication also claims that the Vivo X300 FE could debut in India at a price of ₹56,999 or ₹59,999, up from the ₹54,999 launch price of the Vivo X200 FE.

The expected price hike could be due to the use of a Snapdragon processor or the recent RAM price hike. As of now, there is no information regarding the launch date or timeline, we expect to get more details in the coming days.
