Vivo X300 5G: What’s new and how it steps ahead

The Vivo X300 5G will reportedly debut the MediaTek Dimensity 9500, a chip designed to push the boundaries of mobile performance. In agreement with X user Ayan Ghosh and recent Geekbench postings, this chipset has a sophisticated octa-core arrangement of one ultra-performance core rated at 4.21GHz, three high-performance cores at 3.5GHz, and four efficiency cores at 2.7GHz. This is augmented by the Mali G1 Ultra MC12 GPU which means that the machine is a monster in terms of mobile gaming and intense multitasking.

Paired with 16GB RAM and Android 16 in test units, the Vivo X300 5G posted eye-catching scores: 7,129 (multi-core) and 2,352 (single-core) on Geekbench. Although there exists the likelihood of prototypes not performing to the same rating as the actual retail units, this is a good taste of what the consumers will expect.
