Vivo X300 spotted on Geekbench
New benchmark data has surfaced for a Vivo device believed to belong to the upcoming X300 family. Radio certifications in China recently hinted at a September launch for the series, listing two model numbers: V2502A and V2509A. Now the V2509A has appeared in Geekbench, revealing key hardware details including the chipset, RAM, GPU, and Android version — though it remains unclear whether this listing corresponds to the standard Vivo X300 or the X300 Pro.
Vivo X300 Geekbench listing
The above screenshots show that the Vivo V2509A, powered by the upcoming Dimensity 9500, has emerged in Geekbench. The CPU configuration on the listing details one ultra-core at 4.21GHz (Travis), three performance cores at 3.50GHz (Alto), and four efficiency cores at 2.7GHz (Gelas). Graphics duties are handled by the Mali-G1-Ultra MC12 GPU.
Benchmark scores and software
Geekbench reveals the V2509A is equipped with 16GB of RAM and ships with Android 16. In the tests the device posted a single-core score of 2,352 and a multi-core score of 7,129. Those numbers are lower than many expect for a Dimensity 9500-based device, suggesting this may be an early engineering test build rather than tuned retail firmware.
Product features and technical highlights
- Chipset: MediaTek Dimensity 9500 (leaked clock layout: 4.21GHz + 3.50GHz + 2.7GHz)
- Memory: 16GB RAM
- GPU: Mali-G1-Ultra MC12
- OS: Android 16
Comparisons and advantages
Compared with previous Vivo flagships and competing devices, the X300 series is poised to benefit from the Dimensity 9500's architecture for improved power efficiency and multi-core throughput. If software optimizations and final silicon tuning match MediaTek's advertised capabilities, performance should rise above these early Geekbench numbers. The 16GB RAM option positions the phone strongly for multitasking and gaming use cases.
Use cases and market relevance
Vivo's X300 lineup aims at power users and mobile gamers looking for flagship-level processors and large memory pools. Integration of Android 16 will also appeal to early adopters seeking the latest OS features. With MediaTek expected to unveil the Dimensity 9500 on Sept. 22 in China, Vivo may time X300/X300 Pro availability around that window, which could make this series an early showcase for the new SoC.
Certification notes
Radio certifications show two related model numbers: V2502A and V2502DA. These are reportedly the same phone, with the V2502DA variant adding support for the Beidou satellite short messaging service — a relevant differentiation for Chinese market users and global travelers who rely on satellite connectivity features.
Final thoughts
While the Geekbench leak confirms key hardware elements like the Dimensity 9500, Mali-G1-Ultra MC12 GPU, 16GB RAM, and Android 16, benchmark figures should be treated as preliminary. Final retail firmware and hardware revisions typically deliver improved scores and a more representative user experience. Still, the X300 series remains one of the more interesting upcoming launches for performance-oriented Android buyers this fall.
