2026 Vivo smartphone and hardware rollouts

Overview

Following the August 2026 launch of the Vivo S2 5G, Vivo has expanded its lineup and adjusted pricing due to market shifts. In mid-September, the V80 Lite rollout expanded to Thailand, while the V80 Lite 5G in Malaysia earned a Guinness World Record for its 10,000mAh battery. In early October, Vivo expanded the V80 Lite rollout to the Philippines, where the device features a 10,000mAh BlueVolt battery and IP68/IP69 resistance. During the NEXT 2026 event in India, Vivo officially launched the V80 and S2 FE. The V80 features a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, a 7,200mAh battery, and a ZEISS-co-engineered triple camera system. The S2 FE, which holds a Guinness World Record for the longest continuous livestream, features a 10,000mAh battery, Dimensity 7300e processor, and MIL-STD-810H durability. Vivo also showcased its first Mixed Reality headset, the Vision Discovery Edition. In the Philippines, pre-orders for the V80 Lite opened in mid-October via the Vivo Store app and e-store. In South Africa, the V80 Lite 5G was announced, highlighting its 10,000mAh battery. In China, the X500 series flagship lineup—comprising the X500, X500 Pro, and X500 Pro Max—was globally unveiled. The X500 Pro Max features a 200MP ZEISS APO periscope telephoto camera and the HP0 Ultra-Sensing Sensor. Expansion continues with the X500 Pro Max launching in Singapore, featuring a Sony 50MP LOFIC CMOS sensor for high-efficiency HDR imaging. In Europe, pre-orders for the X500 Pro and Pro Max are scheduled for October 27. In the Middle East, the V80 is expected in Egypt with AI-driven tools like ‘Snap Note’ and ‘AI Recorder’, while in the UAE, Vivo showcased the V80 alongside the X Fold6, its first official foldable in the region.
