Vivo X500 India Launch Date Confirmed for 26 November

The Vivo X500 India launch date is now official. Vivo has confirmed that the X500 series arrives on 26 November 2026 at 12 PM IST, and the company is expected to livestream the event.

Also, for readers in India, this ends weeks of guesswork. Earlier reports had pointed to a launch in the last week of November, but the exact day was unconfirmed. Elsepost had covered those early expectations for the series, and this is the first firm date.

What Vivo has confirmed

All three models are on the list: the X500, the X500 Pro and the X500 Pro Max. So, the Vivo Watch GT 2 smartwatch launches alongside them. Vivo will also show new photography accessories, and the X500 Pro Max works with the second generation ZEISS Telephoto Extenders, according to My Mobile India.

Vivo has not said where the phones will be sold or when sales begin. So, for now, buyers should treat sale dates as unknown. Still, the company usually shares those details closer to the event.

Reported specifications, not official yet

However, most of the numbers below come from the Chinese versions and from reports. They may change for India, so treat them with care.

• X500: 6.59 inch 1.5K OLED, 144Hz, Dimensity 9600M chip, 7,500mAh battery, 50MP main camera and a telephoto sensor.
• X500 Pro: 6.36 inch 1.5K LTPO OLED, 144Hz, Dimensity 9600 Pro, 6,510mAh battery, 50MP main camera and a telephoto sensor.
• X500 Pro Max: 6.85 inch 2K OLED, 144Hz, Dimensity 9600 Pro, 8,000mAh battery in the Chinese model, a 200MP ZEISS telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom, a 50MP ultrawide and a 50MP selfie camera.

Expected prices in India

Vivo has not confirmed pricing. However, the same report lists expected figures: Rs 1,19,999 for the X500 (12GB and 256GB), Rs 1,49,999 for the X500 Pro, and Rs 1,79,999 for the X500 Pro Max (12GB and 512GB). Therefore, a Photographer Kit for the Pro Max is expected at Rs 2,29,999.

Also, these are estimates, not announcements. Also, launch day offers and bank discounts can change the final price a buyer pays. It is wise to wait for Vivo’s own numbers on 26 November.

Why the Vivo X500 India launch date matters

So, premium camera phones are a crowded space in India. Therefore, the X500 series will be judged on its telephoto system and its battery size, not only on the chip. If you plan to upgrade this season, the Vivo X500 India launch date gives you a clear day to compare options.
