vivo X500 Series India Prices Leak: Starts at ₹1,19,999

A tipster has listed tentative India prices for the vivo X500 series: ₹1,19,999 for the X500, ₹1,49,999 for the X500 Pro and ₹1,59,999 for the X500 Pro Max, all with 12 GB RAM and 256 GB storage. A top Pro Max "master set" is tipped at ₹2,29,999. vivo has confirmed no prices.

Tentative India prices of the vivo X500 series

The tipster who posted the figures on X calls them "tentative". Here is the full list they gave:

The same post says the X500 will come in black and red, while the Pro and Pro Max get orange and black. It also mentions exclusive offline discounts that would bring the effective price down a little. The tipster does not say what the "master set" includes, so we are not guessing.

How the prices compare with China and global pricing

Our earlier X500 story carried China prices converted to rupees at about ₹79,000, ₹93,000 and ₹1,00,000 for the three phones. Against those, the tipped India prices are roughly 50% to 60% higher, though the storage options behind those older figures may not match. Our database lists the global prices as about €1,030 for the X500, about €1,260 for the X500 Pro and €1,599 for the X500 Pro Max. India taxes and vivo's local positioning are the open questions, so the final prices could land well away from this list.

When is the vivo X500 series coming to India?

vivo has already begun teasing the series, including a Zeiss 400 mm telephoto extender in India. A launch around 25 November 2026 has been tipped, but as far as we can tell vivo has not confirmed the date. All three phones were also spotted on the BIS database, which usually means a launch is close.

What you get for the money

The three phones launched in China on 21 September 2026 and later went global. Specs below are from our database and may differ on the Indian versions.

• X500: Dimensity 9600M, 7,500 mAh battery, 90W wired and 40W wireless charging.
• X500 Pro: Dimensity 9600 Pro, 6,510 mAh battery, 90W wired and 40W wireless charging.
• X500 Pro Max: Dimensity 9600 Pro, with a battery listed at 6,750 mAh in Europe, 7,800 mAh globally and 8,000 mAh in China. The Indian battery size is not known yet.

What is confirmed and what isn't

• Confirmed: the X500, X500 Pro and X500 Pro Max exist and have launched in China and globally. vivo has teased the series for India.
• Tipped, not confirmed: every India price above, the colour options, the offline discounts and the late-November launch window.

Our view: at ₹1.2 lakh and above, these phones would sit in direct competition with the biggest flagships. We would wait for vivo's official India pricing and launch offers before deciding.
