Vivo X500 red colour variant leaked, could be exclusive to India
The Vivo X500 series is teased to launch in India soon. This is Vivo’s flagship series, which is already official in China. Ahead of the launch, a new colour variant for the Vivo X500 has leaked and is tipped to arrive in India. This could be an exclusive colour variant for India, as it’s not part of the Vivo X500 in China. Indian pricing for the Vivo X500 has been tipped as well.
Vivo X500 red colour variant
Tipster Sanju has shared an exclusive render of the Vivo X500 in red. Judging by the image, we can see that it’s a very bright red, almost leaning towards orange. The handset retains the same design, which is a circular camera module on a larger plate. So, you’re getting Vivo’s flagship camera design but in a slightly different manner. The Vivo X500 is the only model in the lineup to get a design change this year.

In China, the Vivo X500 comes in white, pink, grey, and black. It’s not clear, which colours are coming to India apart from red.
The tipster adds that the Vivo X500 could be priced at Rs 1,19,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant. This is much higher than the Vivo X300, which launched at Rs 75,999 for the same memory configuration. The price hike is expected, though, considering the memory costs and all new flagships touching a lakh and above.
The Vivo X500 is the standard model in the lineup, featuring a 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and 4,000 nits of peak brightness. It packs a 7,500mAh battery with 90W wired and 40W wireless charging, which is larger than the X300’s 6,040mAh unit. For optics, you get a 50MP Sony LYTIA 828 main camera, a 64MP telephoto, and a 50MP JN1 ultra-wide camera.
Since Vivo has already teased the X500 series India launch, we should get to know the official details very soon. For now, you might want to consider the Vivo X500 if you’re looking for a camera flagship with a large battery, a vibrant and bright display, and a relatively compact design. We should still wait for the official launch before making any buying decisions.
