Vivo’s upcoming X300 Ultra has surfaced in live photos showcasing its beige color option and revealing a bold new design featuring a prominent Zeiss-branded camera array. The phone’s leak sheds light on its high-end hardware, including a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset and advanced imaging technology.
The handset sports a substantial rear camera module with clear Zeiss branding, visible especially from the side profile. The beige model’s back cover appears textured with a subtle pattern, while the frame looks metal. Standard elements sit along the bottom, including microphones, a USB-C port, a speaker, and a SIM card slot. Physical buttons for power and volume control line the edges.
A screenshot from the settings menu confirms the phone’s core specs: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of onboard storage. Vivo’s proprietary imaging processors, the VS1 and V3+, handle photo and video tasks. The battery capacity is a substantial 6600mAh.

The phone’s camera setup is its standout feature. At the heart is a massive 200-megapixel Sony LYT-901 sensor sized at 1/1.12 inches with a 35mm equivalent focal length. Complementing this is a periscope-style 200MP telephoto lens from Samsung (model HPB) with an 85mm focal length, boasting Zeiss APO certification for enhanced optical quality.
The camera array also includes a 50MP ultrawide Sony LYT-828 sensor plus a multispectral sensor to improve color accuracy and detail. On the front, there is a 50MP autofocus selfie camera, a significant upgrade over typical midrange shooters.
