Rumours about the vivo X500 Ultra’s camera hardware are emerging from tipsters, with multiple reports focusing on possible changes to its telephoto and main sensors ahead of a launch expected in early next year. While none of the details are confirmed, the leaks describe engineering samples being tested with large-sensor camera components.
GSMArena.com reports that a latest engineering sample may use a 50MP Sony LYT910 sensor for the main rear camera, paired with a 35mm lens, and suggests the leak could be referring to a specific 1/1.28-inch variant. Separately, the same outlet says the telephoto camera may receive a larger 200MP sensor, specifically a 1/1.2-inch option, implying vivo has found room for the bigger module.
NDTV frames the story around a potential larger 200MP telephoto sensor, saying the upgrade could help the phone capture more light and improve image quality. Across outlets, the common theme is a camera-focused redesign on an upcoming vivo flagship, with differing emphasis on whether the biggest shift is the telephoto or the main rear sensor.
