Multiple reports based on leaks and tipster claims say vivo plans to launch the X500 lineup in China later this year, with the base vivo X500 and higher models (including X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max) expected around September. The latest information focuses on the camera hardware for the standard X500. One set of details says the X500 will move away from the 200MP primary camera used on the prior-generation vivo X300. Instead, it is tipped to include a 50MP Sony main sensor with an optical format size of 1/1.28 inches. Additional leaks describe a triple rear camera layout, commonly cited as including a 50MP ultrawide camera and a 64MP periscope telephoto camera. Other coverage that references the same rumor ecosystem similarly highlights the 50MP Sony primary sensor and 64MP periscope. Overall, the sources agree on a shift in the main camera resolution and the presence of a 64MP periscope, but they frame all details as unconfirmed until vivo formally announces the devices.
