The upcoming Vivo X500 5G could see a significant price increase in India, with reports revealing that the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant carries a maximum retail box price of Rs 1,69,999. While the official box MRP often sits higher than what buyers actually pay at checkout, the leak points toward a premium positioning for Vivo’s next flagship offering in the region.
Under the hood, the device is expected to draw power from a MediaTek Dimensity 9600M processor, paired with a 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED display that supports a high 144Hz refresh rate. On the photography front, the Vivo X500 5G features a triple-camera system on the back, comprising a 50MP primary camera, a 50MP secondary lens, and a 64MP camera module.
Another major highlight of the smartphone is its massive 7,500mAh battery capacity. To quickly replenish such a large cell, Vivo has equipped the device with 90W wired fast charging along with 40W wireless charging support.
While the Rs 1,69,999 box MRP suggests a major price hike for the 12GB+256GB configuration, the actual retail selling price in India is expected to be lower once official sales begin. Official announcement details regarding the final consumer pricing and market availability are anticipated in the near future.
