The launch of the Vivo X300 Ultra is closing in. While the camera-focused flagship may debut in China first, new leaks have reaffirmed Vivo's plans to launch its X200 Ultra successor globally as a rival to the iPhone 17 Pro Max and upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra.

It is no secret that Vivo has adopted a more internationalist tone of late when it comes to its flagship smartphone releases. In recent years, the company has confined international smartphone releases to mid-range options. As a result, the likes of the X200 Ultra have been left out in the cold, with only the X Fold3 Pro and X Fold5 offered to a limited extent outside China.

This year though, Vivo matched Oppo in offering its latest candybar flagships globally. Thus, the X300 and X300 Pro have reached markets like Europe to do battle with the Find X9 and Find X9 Pro, as well as alternatives from Apple and Samsung. Now, further evidence has emerged indicating that Vivo will offer the X300 Ultra globally too.

Just after Christmas, Vivo certified a smartphone with the model number V2562 with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). Often, an EEC certification by a major manufacturer is a sure sign that they will release a device rather than letting it languish on the cutting room floor. Now, the same device has turned up on on the TKDN's public database in Indonesia.

In other words, it seems nailed on that the Vivo X300 Ultra will receive a global launch. How far that stretches remains to be seen at this stage, though. Nonetheless, all variants are expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, complemented by high-end camera hardware, including a 1/1.12-inch primary camera (Sony LYT-901), a 1/1.4-inch telephoto (ISOCELL HPB), and a 1/1.28-inch ultra-wide (Sony LYT-828).
