vivo taps award-winning photographer for X300 reveal

Award-winning Manila-based photographer Jan Mayo will headline the launch of the vivo X300 Series on 26 November 2025, vivo Philippines announced this week.

Known for his clean, dramatic, and structured visual style across fine art, editorial, and commercial work, Mayo is the first Filipino to win the prestigious GFX Challenge Grant. His exhibits have been featured at the National Museum of Natural History and Intermediatheque in Tokyo.

During the launch, Mayo will lead an exclusive Photography Masterclass demonstrating the vivo X300 Series’ telephoto and imaging capabilities — positioning the device as “the next Telephoto King” after its predecessor. Joining him onstage is model, host, and former beauty queen Nicole Cordoves.

The public is invited to watch the official livestream on November 26 at 6 p.m. via the vivo Philippines Facebook page, where Hazel Bascon, vivo Philippines Vice President for Sales, will announce pricing and launch promotions for the X300 Series.

The vivo X300 Series introduces upgrades in imaging, performance, and user experience, including:

• Professional ZEISS imaging: The vivo X300 Pro features a 200MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera, while the vivo X300 features a 200MP ZEISS Main Camera.
• Pro Imaging Chip VS1: Exclusive to the Pro, the chip preprocesses RAW data to improve portrait and overall image quality in tandem with the Dimensity 9500 platform.
• Stronger battery performance: The X300 has a 6040 mAh BlueVolt battery, while the X300 Pro carries a 6510 mAh BlueVolt battery. Both support 90W FlashCharge and 40W Wireless FlashCharge.
• Refreshed OriginOS 6: A smoother interface designed for creative workflows and everyday performance.

vivo said the X300 Series was created to “empower creators, storytellers, and everyday users who want to capture life from any distance in incredible detail.”
