Vivo X500 India Launch Date, Price and Specs: What's Confirmed

Vivo has confirmed that the X500 series is coming to India, but as of 14 November 2026 it hasn't published a launch date, prices or the full model list. The 26 November launch and 2 December sale dates come from a tipster, so treat them as likely, not final. Here's what is official, what's leaked, and what you can already say about the phones from their China launch.

• Official: Vivo teased the X500 series for India with a "Coming Soon" message, showing the X500 Pro Max in Sunset Orange.
• Tipped, not official: India launch on 26 November, sale from 2 December, as reported by Digit from a tipster.
• Not announced: Indian prices, and whether the base X500 and X500 Pro will also launch here.
• Known from China: Dimensity 9600 chips, 90W wired charging and batteries from 6,510mAh to 8,000mAh.

What Vivo has officially confirmed for India

Vivo's India teaser uses the line "ZEISS Cinematics. Create Further." and says "Coming Soon", according to Beebom's report on the teaser (5 November 2026). Only the X500 Pro Max appears in it. The same report says the phones will run OriginOS 7 based on Android 17.

The teaser also points to the ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra, a clip-on lens that gives up to 400mm of focal length. It works only with the Pro Max and is sold separately. The Vivo Watch GT 2 shows up in the teaser too, so it may launch alongside the phones, but that's a reading of the image, not an announcement.

Vivo X500 India launch date: what's tipped

Digit, citing tipster Sanju Choudhary, reports a 26 November launch with sales from 2 December, and says Vivo itself had not confirmed this. Hindi outlets including Aaj Tak and Jagran carried headlines on 14 November describing the date as confirmed. I couldn't open those reports or find the date on Vivo's own channels, so check Vivo India's website or social accounts before you plan around it.

Vivo X500 series specs (China versions)

The phones launched in China first. The table below uses the China specs reported by Beebom. India models can differ, so confirm battery size and storage options once Vivo lists them.

The Pro Max is the one to watch if you care about battery and zoom. It has the biggest battery of the three and the only 200MP telephoto, and it's the only model that works with the ZEISS extender.

Vivo X500 price in India: what we know and don't

There is no official Indian price. What exists is a China price and two conflicting guesses, so don't treat any rupee figure below as final.

Beebom's own estimate is lower: about ₹95,000 for the X500, with the other two likely above ₹1 lakh, since Indian prices usually sit above Chinese ones after import costs. The two estimates are about ₹25,000 apart, which shows how little is settled. For context, Beebom lists the Oppo Find X10 at ₹1,39,999 and the Find X10 Pro Max at ₹1,99,999.

For UK, US, Canada and Australia, I found no confirmed launch plans or pricing for the X500 series as of November 2026, so don't expect to buy it there on this timeline.

Should you wait for the Vivo X500?

Wait if you're shopping in the premium Android range and want long battery life, a strong telephoto camera and fast charging. The China specs are strong on all three. Skip waiting if you need a phone this week, because there's no confirmed date, no price and no review yet, and launch-day reviews often change the picture on thermals and real battery life.

If you do upgrade, two things make the switch easier. Clear space on your old phone first with our guide to freeing up Android storage, and make sure your sign-ins move with you by setting up passkeys on your Google account before you change devices.
