Vivo X500 Pro Max revealed — here are my favorite photos taken with the potentially iPhone-beating flagship camera phone

Vivo has unveiled its latest flagship phone, the X500 Pro Max, during a launch event in Shanghai, China. The X500 Pro Max is the most expensive model in the X500 series, which also includes the X500 and X500 Pro. The company has expressed its intent to compete with Oppo and Xiaomi in the flagship camera phone market. I had the opportunity to spend 24 hours testing the X500 Pro Max, which replaces the previous year's X300 Ultra.

The X500 Pro Max boasts a triple front camera setup featuring ultra-wide, main, and telephoto lenses with Zeiss optics. The main lens now has a wider 24mm focal length, similar to most other flagship wide cameras. The 3.5x telephoto lens offers an 85mm equivalent focal length, which is popular among portrait photographers. It also has a mode that captures images with a remarkable 200MP resolution, and the ultra-wide and main cameras can produce a boosted 50MP resolution.

Tim Coleman, the reporter, will provide a detailed camera comparison between the X500 Pro Max, X300 Ultra, and the Oppo Find X9 Ultra, which is another top camera phone from the previous year. The X500 series was announced on September 21 and is currently exclusive to China, with a broader release expected later, although it is unlikely to reach the US. Other top camera phones, such as the Oppo Find X9 Ultra and Xiaomi 17 Ultra, are now available in the UK.
