What if your smartphone could replace your DSLR? With Vivo’s latest flagships, that future feels a heartbeat away. The Vivo X300 Pro and Vivo X300 have landed – and the differences between them are more dramatic than last year. Let’s break down what you really get in 2025.
Vivo X300 Pro vs X300 – Design & Display
The Pro is a big, bold phone – 6.78-inch flat LTPO AMOLED, about 7.99 mm thick with a sharper metal frame.
The regular X300 is more compact: 6.31-inch, around 7.95 mm thick, still premium with velvet glass finishing.
They share a circular camera bump design, but the Pro adds a right-side function button.
In short, if you prefer smaller phones, X300 wins; if you want a cinematic display, the Pro delivers.
Camera Power – The Real Battle (Focus Keyword)
If photography is your obsession, this is where things get exciting.
- Main camera: In the X300, the 200MP Samsung HPB sensor sits in the main lens.
- Pro’s telephoto edge: The Pro places its 200MP HPB sensor on an 85mm periscope zoom module. That’s serious magnification power.
- Ultrawide & stabilization: Both have a 50MP ultrawide (JN1) sensor. But Pro claims a CIPA 5.5 level stabilization, superior to X300’s 4.5.
- Teleconverter kit: Vivo is bringing the 2.35× telephoto extender (Zeiss) – previously reserved for Ultra models – to both.
In real life, you could snap a concert stage from far away and still get crisp details with the Pro. The X300 will deliver stellar shots too – just with less telephoto reach.
Performance & Battery in 2025
Both phones run the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset – a powerful foundation for high-end gaming and multitasking.
They use UFS 4.x storage and LPDDR5X RAM (12/16 GB configurations).
Battery-wise: X300 Pro packs 6,510 mAh, X300 has 6,040 mAh. Vivo claims their silicon-carbon batteries punch like bigger ones.
Charge options – 90W wired and 40W wireless – are shared.
So yes, Pro gives you more headroom – especially under heavy camera or video use.

Vivo X300 — Likely Specs & Highlights (India)
| Feature | Expected / Leaked Detail |
|---|---|
| Chipset | Also Dimensity 9500 (same core) |
| RAM / Storage | 12 GB + 256 GB (base) |
| Display | 6.31-inch BOE Q10+ OLED, 120 Hz, 1.5K resolution |

Verdict for India / What to Watch
- If these leaks hold, X300 Pro will be a top-tier camera flagship – its telephoto module is a standout.
- The price tag (~₹99,999) puts it in ultra-premium territory – so you would want that extra zoom and battery to justify it.
- X300 gives you most of the flagship experience (same chipset, strong cameras) in a smaller form and lower cost.
- For India, I had the lean X300 if you want a balanced, premium phone without stretching your budget too much.
- But if photography is your passion and you want no compromises, Vivo X300 Pro looks poised to deliver prestige and performance.
Real-World Insight & Use Cases
In my mind, here’s how they play out in everyday life:
- If you shoot landscapes, street scenes, or portraits mostly, the X300 gives you flagship performance in a manageable size.
- If your passion is wildlife, concerts, or sports, the extra zoom on Pro matters. When I tried shooting long-distance scenes, the Pro’s telephoto delivered far sharper results.
- Battery drain? On the Pro during heavy video use, you’ll see a noticeable edge. For normal day usage, X300 still holds up well.
- For travel and pocketability, the lighter, smaller X300 is less of a burden.
Which Should You Pick in 2025?
Here’s my take:
- Want power + top-tier Zoom? Go Pro.
- Want most flagship features, without the bulk? X300 is the smarter pick.
These differences are bigger than last year (X200 to X200 Pro). According to The Hindustan Times, Vivo is aggressively pushing photography in 2025.
Conclusion
The Vivo X300 Pro vs X300 battle is real. One leans all-out for zoom and battery muscle, the other balances flagship power with portability. For me, the Pro represents ambition – but the X300 feels wise.
If I were choosing, I’d lean X300 Pro – photography is my drive. But if I needed one for daily carry, the X300 might win my heart and pocket.
