vivo X300e Spotted in IMEI Database; X300 Line Grows

Something small, but telling, turned up in a database and suddenly the vivo X300 family looks less settled than we thought. An IMEI listing at GSMA has surfaced with a device labeled vivo X300e — not the long-rumored X300 Ultra, but a quieter sibling that could reshape the lineup’s roadmap.

The entry itself is stingy. No specs. No launch date. Just a model name that confirms vivo is testing the waters with an ‘e’ suffix in the X series for the first time. Until now, vivo’s experiments with lettered variants have leaned toward ‘FE’ models or the recent ‘T’ offshoot, like the X200T. This one feels different. Why introduce an ‘e’? Is it aimed at affordability, regional markets, or some incremental feature set? Hard to say.

There’s another name in the same registry: the vivo X Fold6. Seeing both devices listed together hints that vivo is quietly preparing a broader release slate. The foldable, like the X300e, reveals nothing concrete in the IMEI entry. But rumors have already painted a vivid picture: Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, a 200MP main camera, and a debut window somewhere between April and June 2026. If those whispers hold, vivo could be lining up two very different bets — a pragmatic new X300 variant and a headline-grabbing flagship foldable.

Context matters here. IMEI listings are a fairly reliable early indicator that a device exists and is moving through certification channels, but they’re not press releases. Companies often register multiple SKUs while features and markets are still being finalized. So the X300e could be anything from a slightly reconfigured X300 for specific regions to a deliberately pared-down model meant to broaden appeal.

The bigger takeaway? vivo continues to diversify its X series strategy. New suffixes. New form factors. The variations make it both harder and more interesting to predict what will hit store shelves. Expect more registrations, more leaks, and maybe a staged reveal that teases the X300e alongside a more attention-grabbing Fold6.

The GSMA IMEI listing confirms the X300e name but leaves all the important questions — specs, markets, and timing — unanswered.

Keep an eye on certification databases and supply-chain chatter over the next few months; small entries like this often presage bigger announcements.
