Vivo India recently confirmed the upcoming launch of its latest mid-range smartphone, the Vivo Y300 5G. On Tuesday, the brand announced the launch on its social media channels and shared the first glimpse of the Y300’s design. Expected to be an upgrade from last year’s Vivo Y200, the Y300 will feature a dual rear camera setup and a sleek, affordable yet capable 5G design. Although Vivo has not revealed the exact launch date, rumors suggest that the phone will be available in the Indian market by the end of this month.

The Vivo Y series, which includes models like the Y200, has been competitive in the sub-Rs 20,000 price range. The next-generation Y300 is also expected to fall under the same price range, offering powerful features and 5G capabilities. Vivo has strategically timed this launch to meet the growing demand for affordable 5G phones in India. While most of the details are under wraps, rumors suggest that the Vivo Y300 5G will bring notable upgrades over its predecessor in both design and hardware. Based on current leaks and teaser images, the Y300 is expected to feature a modern, titanium-inspired design, similar to the Vivo V40 Lite, the model previously released in international markets. The handset is expected to come in three color options: Titanium Silver, Emerald Green and Phantom Purple.

On the front, the Vivo Y300 is rumored to sport a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. On the back, while the teaser confirms a dual camera setup, the Y300 is expected to have a 50-megapixel primary sensor and an 8-megapixel secondary sensor. The main camera is speculated to use the Sony IMX882 sensor, which is known for capturing detailed portrait shots, and may include Vivo’s signature AI Aura Light for better low-light photography. The phone is rumored to have a 32-megapixel selfie camera on the front, which is a step ahead of many competitors in its category.

Under the hood, the Vivo Y300 5G is rumored to be powered by a Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor coupled with 8GB of RAM for adequate multitasking capabilities and 5G connectivity. The phone is expected to pack a 5,000mAh battery with 80W fast charging support, which is a notable upgrade in this price range.

Given these expected features, the Vivo Y300 stands out in the mid-range smartphone market. If the rumors are true, the Y300’s combination of a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display, powerful camera setup, and strong battery support should make it attractive to consumers looking for an affordable 5G phone. Additionally, the presence of 80W fast charging adds value, making the Y300 an attractive option for anyone wanting both performance and design.
