TL;DR
- The Vivo X300 FE is official, and it’s getting a global release — though we don’t know official pricing or availability details yet.
- Vivo’s X300 FE features cuts to the processor and camera system compared to the mainline X300, presumably to lower the price.
- For the first time, Vivo is making the FE model compatible with its telephoto extender. You can extend the X300 FE to a 200mm-equivalent focal length.
Following a limited reveal last month, Vivo is officially launching the X300 FE globally alongside the high-end Vivo X300 Ultra. It’s an “FE” model with trimmed-down specs and a more affordable price point, but crucially, Vivo retained support for the X300 series’ hallmark feature. The Vivo X300 FE is compatible with the Telephoto Extender Gen 2, which is an optional accessory that attaches to the phone to provide a 200mm-equivalent focal length.
The Vivo X300 FE has the same 6.31-inch display as the standard X300, and roughly the same dimensions. Depending on your color choice, the X300 FE can be as thin as 7.99mm and as light as 191 grams. It uses an aluminum frame and IP69 durability protection against dust and water ingress.
