Vivo X300 series will launch in China next week, and the lineup will comprise the Vivo X300 and Vivo X300 Pro. The company has already revealed several specifications of its flagship smartphone models, so we know what to expect from the upcoming handsets before they are unveiled on October 13. Now, a Vivo executive has shared a video to showcase the camera performance of the standard Vivo X300 version. He also revealed that the phone will be equipped with a custom HPB sensor on the back, with a 50mm focal length and an f/1.7 aperture. The company has also announced that the Vivo X300 series will feature a Sony LYT primary lens.
Vivo Product Manager Han Boxiao posted a video on Weibo to demonstrate the camera performance of the standard Vivo X300. The video zooms in on the face of the subject to show the amount of detail the handset will be capable of capturing with its 200-megapixel primary sensor on the back.
In the image shared by the executive, the subject's hair strands appear to be well-defined, and the skin texture and other details are also captured with clarity. More details about the upcoming flagship phones' cameras have been revealed in the caption of the video.
The standard Vivo X300 will feature a custom HPB 200-megapixel main rear camera (translated from Chinese).

At this focal length, the sensor is claimed to retain 50-megapixel resolution.
The standard Vivo X300 model will also be equipped with an APO telephoto lens, which will deliver “high-resolution and crisp landscape portraits”. Moreover, the phone will feature a “significantly improved” Zeiss Natural Portrait mode.
