Vivo's X300 Ultra lands in China, makes the Galaxy S26 Ultra look like a joke

Vivo X300 Ultra hands-on at MWC 2026.

Vivo is launching the X300 Ultra globally sometime later this year, but ahead of that, the device has made its debut in China. Vivo showcased the X300 Ultra at MWC 2026, and I got an early look at the phone at the show. There's a lot of interest in the device, and justifiably so — the X200 Ultra was the best camera-focused phone last year, but it was limited to China, so the fact that the X300 Ultra is launching globally is a huge deal in and of itself.

Also, the launch gives us a clearer indication of the X300 Ultra's innards — this was something Vivo didn't detail until now. Starting with the cameras, the phone has a huge 1/1.12-inch 200MP main camera that's using a Sony Lytia 901 sensor with OIS, and it retains the same 35mm focal length as its predecessor. The bigger sensor and higher resolution should make a meaningful difference, and this may just be the best main camera of any phone in 2026.
