Concerts are designed to be experienced live, but with the right technology, their energy and artistry can be preserved long after the final encore. As the Philippines enters another packed season of live performances led by top P-Pop acts, vivo is positioning the X300 Pro as a smartphone built to capture concerts in high-definition detail, even from the farthest seats.

At the core of the vivo X300 Pro is a 200-megapixel ZEISS APO Telephoto Camera paired with a vivo ZEISS 2.35x Telephoto Extender. This setup allows users to capture clear images across a wide range of focal lengths, from wide-angle shots to ultra-zoom photography reaching up to 800mm. According to vivo, this capability enables concertgoers to document performances with clarity typically associated with professional cameras, regardless of seating position.

The device’s Telephoto Stage Mode 2.0 is designed specifically for live performances, allowing fans seated in the upper box to capture images that resemble front-row perspectives. The smartphone’s ultra-clear stage photography aims to highlight both the performers’ expressions and the overall atmosphere of the venue, from choreography details to crowd energy.

Beyond still photography, the vivo X300 Pro also focuses on video capture. Its 4K Stage All-in-One Recording feature allows users to record performances in 4K resolution, supported by Dolby Vision at up to 60 frames per second. This combination enhances color accuracy, contrast, and sharpness, producing videos with a cinematic look intended to mirror the intensity of live shows.

The device also offers a Dual-View Stage Video feature, enabling simultaneous recording from two cameras. This allows users to capture the full stage while also recording close-up shots or personal reactions at the same time, creating a more immersive and story-driven concert video without the need for additional equipment.

Marketed as a premium concert companion, the vivo X300 Pro is priced at P77,999 and is available through the vivo website, Shopee, and vivo concept stores nationwide. As live music continues to draw large crowds, vivo is betting that fans want not just to watch performances, but to relive them in vivid detail through their smartphones.
