vivo has confirmed that its X500 series will officially launch in Malaysia on 27 October 2026. The flagship lineup first debuted in China last month, comprising the X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max, with the company previously confirming that the series would arrive on our shores this month.
Both models feature IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, ultrasonic fingerprint scanners and OriginOS 7 based on Android 17. They also share a similar rear design with a large circular camera module, although the Pro Max offers a larger display, a bigger battery and a higher-resolution telephoto camera.
The X500 Pro Max is the higher-end model in the lineup, featuring a 6.85-inch 2K ZEISS Master Color Display with a variable refresh rate of up to 144Hz. It is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9600 Pro chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, alongside a 7,800mAh battery that supports 90W wired and 40W wireless charging.
