The vivo X300 Series: Advanced Imaging and Performance
The vivo X300 Series incorporates vivo’s most sophisticated imaging system to date, catering to both professional-grade photography and challenging mobile scenarios.

X300 Pro: The Imaging Vanguard

The vivo X300 Pro is equipped with a trifecta of advanced technology: a 200 MP ZEISS APO Telephoto Camera, a ZEISS Gimbal-Grade Main Camera, and the new Pro Imaging Chip VS1. This proprietary chip dramatically enhances performance across speed, image clarity, and stability.
X300: Ultra-Sensing Clarity
The standard vivo X300 model features a powerful 200 MP ZEISS Main Camera leveraging the Ultra-Sensing Sensor HPB. This sensor is combined with a CIPA 5.5 stabilisation grade to deliver ultra-clear results consistently across various lighting conditions.
Shared Cinematic Features
Both models in the series share a suite of advanced software and video capabilities. These include ZEISS Natural Portrait mode, Multi-Focal HD Portrait settings, and several video enhancements such as Stage Mode 2.0, 4K Stage All-in-One Recording, Dual-View Stage Video, and the capability for 4K 120 fps Pro Video.
Powering this performance is the flagship Dimensity 9500 platform. This is complemented by vivo’s proprietary BlueVolt battery system, which supports ultra-rapid charging via 90W FlashCharge. All components are elegantly enclosed within a refined unibody 3D glass design.
Strengthening Tourism with “The Ultimate Travel Phone”

The appointment of vivo as a Strategic Partner for Visit Malaysia 2026 reinforces the X300 Series’ positioning as The Ultimate Travel Phone. This collaboration is underpinned by a mutual goal: enabling both Malaysians and international visitors to capture the nation’s diverse culture and picturesque landscapes with unparalleled clarity, ease, and authentic detail.

To fully support this initiative, vivo will roll out nationwide programs designed to empower travelers and creators. These endeavors include the aforementioned Vision Plus Mobile PhotoAwards Malaysia and the upcoming vivo X300 Series Beyond X-traordinary Photography Workshop. These specialized programs aim to help users craft stronger visual stories and effectively showcase the unique tapestry of Malaysia through their personal lenses.
The vivo Vision+ Mobile PhotoAwards Malaysia
The vivo Vision+ Mobile PhotoAwards Malaysia is currently running and invites all Malaysians to submit their meaningful visual stories captured throughout the country. The contest remains open until January 2, 2026.
