Vivo is set to launch a new T-series smartphone in India tomorrow. It’s the Vivo T5x 5G, which is already making headlines for its large 7,200mAh battery. Vivo’s T-series has mostly catered to the budget and mid-range segment, sitting below the V-series. Performance is a major focus for the Vivo T-series, while still offering a stylish look and feel. The Vivo T5x 5G appears to be following that direction with a large battery, fast chipset, and premium design.
With only a day to go for the Vivo T5x India launch, here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming phone.

Vivo T5x 5G is scheduled to launch in India on March 17th. The launch event will take place at 12 pm. There’s no official announcement yet on whether there will be a livestream or not. If there is, then we’ll update this space with the live stream link. The Vivo T5x 5G is confirmed to go on sale via Flipkart, and it will be available through more channels.
Vivo has revealed key details of the T5x 5G ahead of its India debut. The smartphone is confirmed to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Turbo processor, and is also claimed to have achieved an AnTuTu score of more than one million. This suggests top-tier performance from the Vivo T5x 5G in its segment. The smartphone is also getting an ultra game mode, 4D game vibration, and a game voice changer for voice effects in team chats.
The Vivo T5x 5G is also confirmed to pack a 7,200mAh battery, claimed to be the largest in the segment. Vivo, like other companies, is focusing on offering a large battery in an industry where 7,000mAh has now become the standard. The large capacity should appeal to users who prioritise battery endurance for gaming, streaming, and heavy daily usage. In real-world scenarios, the Vivo T5x 5G should give a good two-day usage.
On the software front, the Vivo T5x 5G will run OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 out of the box. This is the latest software version, offering a refined UI with smoother animations and better customisation than the previous one. The smartphone is also getting IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance, a major upgrade from the Vivo T4x’s IP64 rating. It will be equipped with dual stereo speakers with 400 percent volume mode.
Vivo T5x features a design similar to the premium Vivo V70. It has a similar camera module layout with a clean rear panel design. The overall aesthetic looks premium for its segment. The smartphone is confirmed to launch in Cyber Green and Star Silver colours.
Vivo has hinted at the T5x’s price through its teasers, suggesting it could fall under Rs 23,000. This confirms a price hike over its predecessor, the Vivo T4x, which launched in India at a starting price of Rs 13,999. The smartphone, however, has seen a price hike, bringing its current price to Rs 16,999.
The Vivo T5x 5G is shaping up to be a good option for users who prioritise battery life, durability, and performance. The combination of a 7,200mAh battery, a fast chipset, and strong durability could make it an attractive option for users who prioritise performance and reliable battery life. We’ll still need to get the complete details and also review the phone before giving a final verdict. But for now, the Vivo T5x 5G may be worth waiting for, especially if you’re looking for a new mid-range phone.
