As Vivo prepares to unveil the X300 Ultra in China in March, the signals keep piling up to confirm some excellent news: this model will not remain a China-only affair. Unlike the X100 Ultra and X200 Ultra, the Vivo X300 Ultra looks well on course to become the brand’s first “Ultra” flagship to go after the global market.
The phone (model V2562) has just picked up TKDN certification in Indonesia, after already being spotted in IMEI and EEC (Europe) databases. A global launch is therefore expected in the second quarter of 2026.
A secret weapon for colour
The spec sheet was already impressive, but a fresh leak from Digital Chat Station points to a major asset: colour accuracy.
The X300 Ultra is said to feature a custom 5 MP multispectral sensor. Larger and equipped with more colour channels than current standards, this sensor promises to be the most capable imaging solution of the year. By capturing more light information, it will dramatically improve skin tone rendition, white balance, as well as night photography and HDR quality.
A monster with two 200 MP sensors
That multispectral sensor will back up a colossal camera set-up:
- Main: 200-megapixel Sony LYT-901 (with OIS).
- Telephoto: 200-megapixel Samsung HPB periscope.
- Ultra-wide: 50-megapixel Sony LYT-828.
The phone will also put the emphasis on continuous optical zoom across multiple focal lengths, promising better day-to-day versatility than its direct rivals (such as Xiaomi). On the front, a 50 MP camera with autofocus handles selfies.
Performance and ergonomics: bold choices
To drive the whole machine, Vivo has gone with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, paired with a huge battery of around 7,000 mAh. Display duties fall to a large 6.82-inch flat BOE panel (2K LTPO) with ultra-thin bezels.
Finally, one small ergonomic change is worth noting: the dedicated action button found on the X200 Ultra is reportedly being dropped. The removal is said to be aimed at freeing up internal space, most likely to accommodate that massive battery, while simplifying the design at the same time.
Conclusion
The Vivo X300 Ultra is shaping up to be the ultimate camera phone of 2026. By combining raw power, record-breaking battery life and colour science backed by a new multispectral sensor, Vivo looks ready to hit very hard with its first international “Ultra” launch. At PhoneDroid you’ll find smartphones from the Vivo brand, along with Vivo-compatible cases.
