Vivo X500 Pro is the compact mid sibling from the September 21 announcement that also brought the standard X500 and the oversized X500 Pro Max. It trims the body to 151.8 x 71.9 x 8.1 mm at about 192 g or 197 g, still using an aluminum frame with a glass or glass-fiber reinforced plastic back and the same IP68/IP69 sealing story as its brothers.
Color choices land in Black, Gray, White, and Orange, with Ultra HDR image support on paper. An ultrasonic on-screen fingerprint, 40W wireless charging, reverse wireless, reverse wired, and infrared keep the extras list fuller than the base X500, which skips reverse wireless.
Vivo X500 Pro Key Specs
| Network | 3G, 4G, 5G network | |
| Display | 6.36 inches, 1216 x 2660 pixels | |
| Chipset | Mediatek Dimensity 9600 Pro (2 nm) chipset | |
| RAM | 12GB – UFS 4.1 | |
| OS | Android 17, up to 5 major OS updates, OriginOS 7 | |
| Storage | 256GB/512GB/1TB | |
| Camera | 50 MP, 64 MP, 50 MP Back – 50 MP Front | |
| Battery | Si/C Li-Ion 6510 mAh, 90W |
The Pro’s 6.36-inch LTPO AMOLED sits at 1216 x 2660 (about 459ppi) with 1 billion colors, 144Hz, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, about 2,000 nits HBM, and a 4,500 nits peak claim. It is the smallest panel in the trio, but the LTPO stack and higher peak brightness make it the sharper everyday flagship screen if you prefer a one-hand friendly footprint.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 9600 Pro on 2 nm powers this cut, with an octa-core layout peaking at 4.55 GHz and a Mali-G2-Ultra-NX GPU. That is the same silicon recipe as the Pro Max and a clear step up from the base X500’s Dimensity 9600M. Android 17 and OriginOS 7 arrive with up to five major OS updates promised.
Memory stays at 12GB RAM with UFS 4.1 storage in 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB options and no microSD. Config choice is about storage size only, matching the base model’s RAM lock while the Pro Max alone unlocks 16GB cuts.
Vivo X500 Pro keeps the Zeiss triple: a 50MP OIS wide, a 64MP periscope telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom and OIS, and a 50MP ultrawide, backed by laser AF and a spectrum sensor. The front 50MP AF lens mirrors the rest of the family for selfies and calls.
For video, the Pro pushes 8K at 30fps and 4K up to 240fps with Dolby Vision HDR, 17 EV TrueDynamic Log, and 10-bit 422 APV support. The 50MP front camera still handles 4K selfie video at 30 or 60fps when you need face-forward clips.
A 6,510mAh Si/C battery with 90W wired charging is the trade for the smaller chassis, so stamina is strong but not the class-leading tank of the Pro Max’s 8,000mAh cell. Wireless charging at 40W plus reverse wireless and reverse wired cover accessory and share-power moments the base X500 only partly matches.
Vivo X500 Pro Price in Nigeria
The Vivo X500 Pro sits around 1,295,250 Naira (974 USD). You are paying for the 2 nm Dimensity 9600 Pro and the brighter compact LTPO panel more than for raw battery size.
Inside the announced set, the Vivo X500 is the cheaper larger-screen route, while the Vivo X500 Pro Max is the one to open when you want the 6.85-inch QHD+ sheet and 200MP telephoto. Cross-shoppers can also keep the linked Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 Pro, Nubia Navix Ultra, and Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus in the mix.
