Vivo is in discussion again with its new flagship smartphone lineup. Recently the company launched its Vivo X300 Series globally, and now there is news that its cheaper version Vivo X300 FE may also knock in the market soon. The special thing is that this time this phone can come with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, which will make it even more powerful. So let’s know, what’s going to be special is in this upcoming compact flagship.
Design and display
Now we talk about design and display, Vivo has made its compact flagship quite popular in recent years. The X300 offers a 6.3-inch display, making it equivalent to the iPhone 17 in terms of size. Given this trend, it is expected that the Vivo X300 FE will also get a 1.5K flat display of about 6.31 inches. However, there is no official information about refresh rate or brightness level yet. Some reports state that this model may have better color accuracy and brightness.
Processor
Talking about processors, where MediaTek Dimension 9400+ chipset is used in X300 series, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor can be seen in X300 FE. This chipset is believed to be the tone-down version of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. It has Oryon CPU, which will be based on TSMC’s 3nm (N3P) process. It will have two performance cores of 3.8GHz and six efficiency cores of 3.32GHz.
Camera and battery

It is being said that it will include a Periscope telephoto lens, which will do wonders in zooming. Talking about the battery, the Vivo X300 was given a battery of 6,040mAh, while according to reports, the X300 FE will see even larger batteries. The Vivo X200 FE had a battery of 6,500mAh, so the X300 FE could get a battery of 6,600mAh or more.
