Vivo is all set to expand its premium X-series lineup with a more affordable “Fan Edition” model. The upcoming Vivo X300 FE has recently been spotted on several certification websites, including Singapore’s IMDA and TUV Rheinland, signaling that the global launch is just around the corner.
Expected to be a rebranded version of the China-exclusive Vivo S50 Pro Mini, the X300 FE is shaping up to be a powerhouse in a compact form factor.
Charging and Connectivity Confirmed
The recent listings have confirmed some vital technical details:
- 90W Wired Fast Charging: The TUV certification (model number V2537) confirms that the phone will support 90W high-speed charging, matching the standards of the flagship X300 and X300 Pro.
- Connectivity: The IMDA listing reveals that the device will feature NFC support, along with 5G, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 6.0.
Performance: A Shift to Snapdragon?
In a surprising move, latest Geekbench leaks suggest the Vivo X300 FE might ditch the MediaTek processors used in its predecessors for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset.
- RAM: It is expected to come with up to 12GB/16GB of LPDDR5x RAM.
- Software: The device will likely ship with OriginOS 6 (Android 16) out of the box.
