Vivo has offered a first look of the X300 Ultra – its upcoming top-tier imaging flagship – at MWC Barcelona 2026, showcasing its design alongside the 400mm Equivalent vivo Zeiss Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra. This extender serves as a key component of its professional photography kit. Vivo, for the first time, confirmed plans to launch this most advanced X-series model in global markets later this year.
Vivo X300 Ultra gets 400mm telephoto extender
Making its global debut as the industry’s only 400mm telephoto extender, the Vivo Zeiss Telephoto Extender Gen2 Ultra, offers pro-grade optical mobile imaging. The X300 Ultra, with its 400mm-equivalent telephoto extender, achieves a balance between powerful zoom capabilities and its body structure.
“As mobile imaging shifts toward pro-grade expression, a superior telephoto extender is now defined not just by its reach, but by systemic breakthroughs across magnification, optical performance, stabilization, and structural design,” the company said.
Co-engineered with Zeiss, the lens is designed to meet APO imaging standards and supports a full 200MP optical output, delivering pristine image quality even at a 1600mm digital crop.
Furthermore, with gimbal-grade OIS and motion-tracking focus technology, Vivo says that the extender delivers stable and precise telephoto experience.
Vivo X300 Ultra Camera Cage
Following the Telephoto Extender, Vivo introduced a pro-grade Camera Cage designed to elevate the video shooting capabilities of X300 Ultra. The expandable cage features an array of cold shoe mounts and quick-release ports for seamless accessory integration, paired with a dual-hand grip to ensure outstanding stability during demanding handheld shoots.
To provide precise creative control, the cage further incorporates dedicated physical buttons for tactile shutter and zoom adjustment, while an integrated, multi-level cooling fan maintains peak performance during high-intensity recording.
In addition, the External Lens Expansion Frame offers full compatibility with the X300 Ultra Telephoto Extender, rounding out a comprehensive toolkit for professionals.
“The decision to introduce X300 Ultra to international markets signals vivo’s more proactive and confident approach to expanding its presence in the global premium smartphone segment, while reinforcing its vision of bringing its most advanced imaging capabilities to a broader audience worldwide,” Vivo said.
Vivo says it will continue to uphold its user-oriented philosophy.
