Vivo Officially Confirms X300 E With Zeiss Periscope Camera and a 7,200 mAh Battery

Vivo has officially confirmed the X300 E, the latest addition to its high-end X300 lineup, with a 7,200 mAh battery, a Zeiss-tuned periscope telephoto camera, and a distinctive orange finish that makes it one of the more visually striking flagships announced this month. Pre-sales open in China on July 27.

Vivo’s X300 series has established itself as one of the more serious contenders in the flagship camera phone space, with Zeiss optical tuning giving the lineup a credibility that goes beyond marketing. The X300 E extends that series with a device that adds one of the largest batteries in the current flagship segment while retaining the Zeiss camera partnership that defines the X300 identity.

Design and Colors

Vivo has revealed the X300 E’s design alongside the official confirmation, showing the device in three color options: orange, white, and black. The orange variant is the most immediately distinctive, a bold colorway that has been gaining traction across the Android flagship market as manufacturers move away from the grey-black-silver palette that dominated for years.

The rear of the device features a square camera housing, a design choice that groups the lens array in a clean, compact module rather than the elongated vertical strips or circular islands used by some competitors. Previous leaks have suggested the body measures 7.9 mm in thickness and features a metal frame, a combination that should give the device a premium feel without the bulk that large batteries sometimes impose.

The Battery: 7,200 mAh

The headline specification Vivo has officially confirmed is the battery capacity: 7,200 mAh. That figure places the X300 E among the highest-capacity batteries in the current Android flagship generation, alongside devices like the Honor X80 Pro Max’s 11,000 mAh cell and the broader industry trend toward larger silicon-carbon anode batteries that pack more energy into thinner, lighter packs.

For a device in the high-end X300 lineup, which is aimed at photography-focused buyers who may spend extended periods shooting, reviewing, and editing images on the device, a large battery is a genuinely practical feature rather than a specification talking point. Camera-intensive use drains batteries faster than standard social media or messaging consumption. A 7,200 mAh cell provides the headroom that serious photographers need without requiring a mid-day charge.

Previous leaks indicate the X300 E will support 90W fast charging, a charging speed that can bring a large battery from empty to usable levels quickly enough to make the capacity advantage practical rather than theoretical.

The Zeiss Camera System

Vivo has confirmed that the X300 E will feature a Zeiss-tuned periscope telephoto camera, the collaboration that has been central to the X300 series’ photography credentials. The Zeiss partnership covers optical design, lens coating, and color science tuning, with Zeiss T coating reducing lens flare and ghosting in challenging lighting conditions.

The periscope telephoto configuration uses a prism to fold the light path internally, allowing a longer focal length to be achieved in a phone body that remains thin. Periscope telephotos have become the standard for serious optical zoom capability on Android flagships, and Vivo’s Zeiss tuning of the system is expected to deliver the color accuracy and detail rendering that the partnership is known for.

Leaked specifications suggest the full camera configuration includes a 50MP primary camera, a 50MP periscope telephoto, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 50MP front camera. If accurate, the triple-50MP configuration on the main and telephoto cameras, supplemented by the ultrawide, provides a consistent high-resolution output across focal lengths rather than the resolution drop-off that occurs when a high-resolution primary is paired with a lower-resolution telephoto.

Expected Specifications

Beyond the officially confirmed battery and Zeiss camera, previous leaks have outlined a broader specification set that positions the X300 E as a genuine flagship-tier device.

Processing is expected to come from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, Qualcomm’s current flagship chipset that powers the top tier of the 2026 Android lineup. The display is tipped at 6.59 inches, slightly larger than the 6.31-inch panel on the standard X300, giving the E variant more screen real estate for the photography review and editing use cases it is aimed at.

An ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, a more premium and responsive solution than optical alternatives, is listed among the expected features, along with the metal frame and 7.9mm thickness already referenced from the design confirmation.

Pre-Sales and Availability

Vivo has opened reservations for the X300 E in China, with pre-sales beginning on July 27th. Pricing has not been officially confirmed alongside the design and battery reveal.

International availability timelines, including any Pakistan launch, have not been announced. Vivo has an established retail presence in Pakistan, and the X300 series has previously reached the Pakistani market through official channels, making a local launch plausible after the Chinese release is established, though specific timelines would depend on Vivo’s regional rollout planning.

For Pakistani buyers who follow flagship camera phones closely, the X300 E represents a compelling proposition if it reaches local shelves: Zeiss optics, a massive battery, and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset in a device with a distinctive design identity that stands apart from the standard flagship grey.
