VivoMonday, 20 July 2026 at 09:39
Vivo has confirmed it. The X300 E is real, it's coming July 27 in China, and pre-orders are already live on vivo's official store. After months of leaks — starting with a database appearance back in February — the phone finally has a launch date, confirmed colors, and one officially revealed spec that matters: 7,200mAh battery.
Summary
- Vivo officially confirmed the X300 E launches July 27 in China; pre-orders are live now on vivo's official online store.
- The 7,200mAh battery is the only spec vivo confirmed directly — beating our earlier leak estimate of 7,015–7,100mAh by a small margin.
- Official design reveal shows a square camera module with Zeiss-branded triple cameras including a periscope telephoto, available in black, orange, and white.
- Previous leaks point to a 6.59-inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, 50MP main, 50MP periscope telephoto, 8MP ultrawide, 90W wired charging, and a 203g weight.
- This is the Snapdragon-powered alternative in the X300 lineup — sitting alongside the Dimensity-based X300s and above the camera-focused X300 FE.
The Battery Number Is Now Official
Leaks had the X300 E at 7,015–7,100mAh. Vivo's own confirmation lands at 7,200mAh. That's a meaningful correction upward — and it's one of the largest batteries in any slim non-gaming flagship announced this month. The X300 FE, which launched globally and sits in a similar price corridor, carries 6,500mAh with 100W charging. The X300 E goes bigger on capacity, though the rumored 90W charging speed suggests a different trade-off: more battery, slightly slower fill rate.
At 203g and the dimensions implied by the 6.59-inch display, the X300 E isn't a heavy phone. Fitting 7,200mAh into that chassis at a weight below the typical gaming phone puts it in interesting territory — closer to the Honor X80 Pro Max philosophy of big battery in a practical body, but with Zeiss camera credentials the Honor doesn't carry.
Vivo confirmed 7,200mAh and a Zeiss periscope on the same teaser card — two specs that usually don't coexist outside flagship Ultra territory. The X300 E is making a specific argument about what you actually need from a premium phone day-to-day.
Three Cameras, One Confirmed Partnership
The square camera module housing confirmed in official renders carries Zeiss branding across all three lenses — main, ultrawide, and periscope telephoto. That's the full Zeiss APO treatment: coating, tuning, and color science applied across the whole system. The 50MP periscope is the headline camera, carrying forward vivo's Zeiss collaboration that started with the X70 Pro+ and has been a genuine differentiator in color rendering and flare resistance ever since.
The 8MP ultrawide is the one spec worth noting honestly. It's functional, but it's a step down from the 50MP ultrawide on the X300 Pro and X300 Ultra. If wide-angle photography is important to you, that gap matters.
Where It Fits in the X300 Family
The X300 lineup has expanded significantly this year. The standard X300 and X300 Ultra anchor the flagship tier. The X300 FE covers Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 at a more accessible price with global availability. The X300s brought Dimensity 9500 and a 200MP main. The X300 E now slots in as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 option with the largest battery in the family and Zeiss periscope tuning as its headline advantage over the FE.
July 27. China only for now. Pricing not yet announced.
