MANILA, PHILIPPINES – What if a smartphone camera could approach the creative control of a professional production setup?

This is the idea surrounding the upcoming vivo X300 Ultra, the brand’s newest flagship set to be unveiled in the Philippines via Facebook livestream on May 23 at 6 PM.

A cinematic shift

Rather than refining conventional smartphone photography, the vivo X300 Ultra explores a more cinematic direction, drawing inspiration from professional production workflows where lighting, framing, and depth are intentionally crafted rather than simply captured.

This signals a shift in how mobile imaging is positioned: not just as a tool for documentation, but as a medium capable of more deliberate, visually expressive storytelling.

Before the official reveal, vivo has offered a glimpse into its imaging philosophy.

Powered by dual 200MP Triple ZEISS Master Prime Lenses, the vivo X300 Ultra highlights flagship ZEISS optics, advanced telephoto capability, and cinematic imaging depth. It reflects vivo’s continued push to bridge smartphone convenience with the precision and discipline of production-level visual creation.

The direction raises a central question for creators and tech enthusiasts: how close can mobile imaging get to the creative flexibility of a pro-level camera system used in production work?

Watch the livestream

The answer will be revealed live with top celebrity and fashion photographer BJ Pascual, demonstrating the vivo X300 Ultra’s imaging power through a photoshoot with influential superstars Anne Curtis and Marian Rivera. 

The public is invited to tune in to the official livestream on May 23, 2026, at 6 PM via the vivo Philippines Facebook page, and be among the first to witness what “Ultra” truly means for the next generation of mobile imaging.Follow vivo Philippines on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and X, or visit the vivo website for updates.
