The Vivo S50 Pro Mini is shaping up to be a compact flagship that balances flagship-class hardware with a pocketable form factor. Tipped to arrive globally as the Vivo X300 FE, the device is scheduled to launch in China on December 15, with sales expected to begin around December 20.
At its core is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset paired with LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, delivering top-tier performance in a smaller chassis. The 6.31-inch flat OLED panel offers a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate for sharp, fluid visuals. Software comes via Android 16 with Vivo’s OriginOS 6 on top.
Battery life is a highlight: a 6,500mAh cell supported by 90W wired fast charging and 40W wireless charging gives the phone excellent endurance and fast top-ups — a rare combination in a compact device. Complementing the hardware is an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, stereo speakers, and an X-axis linear motor for tactile feedback.
The photography setup aims for versatility. A 50MP front camera handles high-resolution selfies, while the rear array pairs a 50MP primary sensor with an 8MP ultrawide and a 50MP periscope telephoto (Sony IMX882). This arrangement should offer detailed shots, capable zoom, and flexible framing options for most shooting scenarios.
Build quality leans premium, with an aerospace-grade metal frame and IP68/69 dust and water resistance. Despite the large battery and flagship components, the phone measures approximately 150.83 x 71.76 x 8.10 mm and weighs about 192 grams, keeping it comfortable for one-handed use.
Vivo will offer multiple memory configurations to suit different needs: 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, and 16GB+512GB. Colour options announced so far include Space Black, Inspirational Purple, and Confession White, giving buyers classic and more expressive finishes.
If Vivo follows its recent regional naming strategy, the S50 Pro Mini could be rebranded as the Vivo X300 FE outside China.
