Capture a concert from the balcony, wildlife at the edge of the woods, or the fine details of a facade high above the street with a sharpness you wouldn't expect from a phone. Vivo X500 Pro Max features a 200Mpx ZEISS APO telephoto lens with a large 1/1.4" sensor and an 85mm portrait focal length that focuses from just 15cm. The main ZEISS TrueDynamic camera with a Sony LYTIA 1/1.28" sensor and LOFIC technology achieves a dynamic range of up to 17 EV, keeping details in both highlights and shadows during sunsets and backlit portraits. View your results on the large 6.85" display with a resolution of 3168×1440 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 144Hz. A 2nm MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro chipset clocked at up to 4.55GHz delivers top-tier performance, while the 6750mAh battery fully charges in approximately 58 minutes with 90W charging. IP68 and IP69 water and dust resistance give you peace of mind on the go and in bad weather.
The exclusive Professional Creator Kit edition turns the phone into a complete toolkit for demanding photographers and creators. Its highlight is the vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra, which offers a 4.7× optical extension and an equivalent focal length of 400mm. As the lightest teleconverter in its category, it lets you capture distant birds, athletes, or the moon in the night sky. For versatile use, the package also includes the vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 with a 2.35× extension to a 200mm focal length. Weighing just 153g, its premium silver finish perfectly matches the phone's design. The vivo Imaging Grip Kit with a wrist strap turns the phone into a proper camera with a physical shutter button, zoom controls, and a secure grip. The package also includes an original vivo 90W charger, so you can enjoy full-speed charging straight out of the box.
The large screen brings out the fine details from the 200Mpx camera and makes your favourite movie scenes shine. Vivo X500 Pro Max features a 6.85" AMOLED display with a sharp 3168×1440 resolution and 1.07 billion colours in the wide P3 gamut. Content in HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and Netflix HDR looks vibrant with deep contrast. The adaptive 1 to 144Hz refresh rate ensures smooth motion while saving battery life, and a local peak brightness of up to 5000 nits keeps the screen perfectly readable even in direct sunlight. To protect your eyes, the display uses 2160Hz PWM dimming with TÜV Rheinland Flicker-Free and SGS Low Blue Light certifications.
Scenes with extreme contrast between light and shadow put any camera to the test. Vivo X500 Pro Max handles them effortlessly thanks to its 50Mpx ZEISS TrueDynamic main camera with a 1/1.28" Sony LYTIA L910 sensor, developed in exclusive partnership between Vivo and Sony. LOFIC technology expands the dynamic range to up to 17 EV, preserving details across the entire scene in fireworks, illuminated stages, or portraits against the setting sun. The f/1.57 aperture lets in plenty of light even at night, while optical stabilisation keeps your shots sharp when shooting on the move.
The main camera is complemented by a telephoto lens that makes the Pro Max an exceptional tool for photographers. The 200Mpx ZEISS APO telephoto lens uses a large 1/1.4" sensor and an 85mm focal length, ideal for portraits with natural proportions. The high resolution lets you crop photos afterwards while keeping sharp details of distant objects. Vivo X500 Pro Max focuses from just 15cm with the telephoto lens, making it perfect for impressive macro shots. Object tracking at 60 fps keeps fast action on the sports field sharp, and Stage Mode 3.0 captures the concert atmosphere from the crowd. You can also reach a 200mm focal length using the ZEISS Telephoto Extender.
Other cameras also maintain 50Mpx quality, delivering balanced results at every angle. The 15mm ZEISS ultra-wide-angle camera with autofocus captures vast landscapes and architecture, focusing from just 3.5cm. The Vivo X500 Pro Max front camera features a 92° field of view to easily fit the whole group, while autofocus ensures sharp selfies. Fine-tune your portraits with vivo colour Palette filters, and use the rear fill light when shooting video in the dark.
ZEISS cameras show their strength in video recording as well. Vivo X500 Pro Max records in up to 8K on both the main and telephoto cameras, and in 4K at 120 frames per second in 10-bit Log format for professional colour grading. Native recording in 4K at 240 frames per second creates stunning 8× slow-motion footage of fast action. The 4K Golden Hour Portrait Video mode preserves the warm light of the sunset while keeping the subject in sharp focus. Cinematic colour mode adds a film-like look, and the Dual-View feature records you and the scene in front of you at the same time.
Snappy response, smooth gaming, and instant photo processing start with the chipset. Vivo X500 Pro Max is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro, co-developed by Vivo and MediaTek and built on a modern 2nm process. Eight cores clocked at up to 4.55GHz easily handle demanding games, video editing, and multitasking. The dual NPU processes AI tasks directly on the phone and works in tandem with vivo imaging technology to power advanced features like 4K Golden Hour portrait video or 60 fps object tracking. Complemented by 12GB of fast LPDDR5X memory and UFS 4.1 storage, apps launch instantly.
A large display and powerful cameras demand plenty of power, which this phone delivers effortlessly. Vivo X500 Pro Max features a 6750mAh dual-cell battery, with battery life further extended by smart power management. With 90W FlashCharge, you can charge from 1 to 100% in approximately 58 minutes. 40W wireless charging provides a convenient alternative. The phone can also charge headphones or other small devices via cable, keeping you powered up whether you spend the day in the office or on the road.

If you are switching from an iPhone, the Osmosis feature transfers your data with a single tap and helps connect your phone with Apple devices. Use the Origin Workbench desktop to group up to 4 apps for quick access, work in floating windows and drag and drop content between apps. You can control the integrated AI agent with your voice, and it also serves as a meeting assistant. Quick notes and AI recording features capture important thoughts in an instant. Content creators will appreciate significantly faster video exports in the CapCut app. When booking tickets, the Snap-Up Engine prioritises network and performance so you never miss out on sold-out events.
A quality phone is an investment that should serve you for a long time without slowing down.
