vivo X500 Pro 5G 12 GB / 512 GB / China technical sheet
The vivo X500 Pro 5G suits buyers after a well-rounded high-end phone who can live without expandable storage. Its 6.36-inch LTPO AMOLED display pairs a 144 Hz refresh rate with 4,500-nit peak brightness and 459 ppi. Refresh rate, brightness and pixel density are all better than on most phones of its time. IP68 and IP69 protection provide resistance to water and dust.
For performance, it is among the best phones of its time. The MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro comes with 12 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of UFS 4.1 storage, more capacity than most phones offer; there is no memory-card expansion. The camera system also ranks among the best: its 1/1.28-inch main sensor is among the largest of its time and has optical image stabilization. The telephoto camera adds 3.5x optical zoom, also among the highest of its time.
The 6,510 mAh battery is slightly larger than those in most phones of its time. Wired charging at 90 W and wireless charging at 40 W are better than what most offer, and reverse wireless charging is included. Overall, the vivo X500 Pro 5G is among the best phones of its time, with a NeoScore of 8.8. It is a compelling all-round choice for buyers who prioritize the display, cameras, ample storage and fast charging, with the clear limitation that storage cannot be expanded.
