Vivo X500 series India box prices for all three models leak ahead of launch
Vivo is launching its flagship X500 series in India on November 26th. The lineup includes the Vivo X500, X500 Pro, and X500 Pro Max. Vivo is also bringing its first smartwatch, the Watch GT 2, to India alongside the X500 series and the photography kit with the telephoto extenders and other accessories. Since the phones are already official in China, we know what they offer, but pricing remains under wraps. A new leak has revealed the box pricing of the Vivo X500 series, giving us an idea of what to expect.
Vivo X500 series India box pricing (leak)
Tipster Sanju has shared images on X, believed to be of the Vivo X500 series. According to this leak, the Vivo X500 box price is Rs 1,69,999, while the X500 Pro’s is Rs 1,99,999. The Vivo X500 Pro Max, which is the top-end model in the lineup, has a box price of Rs 2,14,999. Pricing is for the 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant for all three phones.

Pricing for the Vivo X500 series had already leaked before, with the X500 tipped to cost Rs 1,19,999. The X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max will reportedly cost Rs 1,49,999 and Rs 1,79,999, respectively. The photography kit will reportedly launch at Rs 2,29,999. This leaked pricing could be accurate if the box pricing is anything to go by. It would also put the Vivo X500 series at a slight advantage over rivals like the OPPO Find X10 series and Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro models, since the former will be priced comparatively lower.
This still doesn’t take away from the fact that the Vivo X500 series will launch at a much higher price than its predecessor, the X300. It’s understandable and not surprising given the memory crisis and rising costs in the industry. Since this is the reality now, interested buyers should brace for such high prices from other flagships too.
The Vivo X500 series is only two weeks away from launching in India, so those interested in a camera flagship can consider waiting for it.
