Penang marks vivo’s first step in the Visit Malaysia 2026 partnership and the start of the vivo Vision+ Mobile PhotoAwards Malaysia
vivo Malaysia officially launched the vivo X300 Series in Penang today at Sunway Carnival Mall. The showcase marked the flagship’s first appearance in the Northern region and introduced the X300 and X300 Pro as both The Ultimate Concert Phone and The Ultimate Travel Phone.
vivo Malaysia further elevated the occasion by announcing its appointment as the Strategic Partner for Visit Malaysia 2026 in collaboration with Tourism Malaysia. The announcement builds on a five-year working relationship between the two organisations and marks a new chapter in vivo Malaysia’s support of the local tourism landscape and sets the foundation for a series of travel-driven initiatives planned for 2026.
In line with this direction, the event also introduced vivo Vision+ Mobile PhotoAward Malaysia photography initiative, encouraging Malaysians to capture and share meaningful visual stories. The program reflects vivo’s continued focus on creative expression and will support wider participation across the campaign period.
The X300 Series brings vivo’s most advanced imaging system to date. The X300 Pro features a 200 MP ZEISS APO Telephoto Camera, a ZEISS Gimbal-Grade Main Camera and the new Pro Imaging Chip VS1 which improves speed, clarity and stability. The X300 carries a 200 MP ZEISS Main Camera with Ultra-Sensing Sensor HPB with CIPA 5.5 stabilisation grade for ultra-clear results in all lighting conditions.
Both models support ZEISS Natural Portrait, Multi-Focal HD Portrait, Stage Mode 2.0, 4K Stage All-in-One Recording, Dual-View Stage Video and 4K 120 fps Pro Video. The series is powered by the Dimensity 9500 platform and vivo’s BlueVolt battery system with 90W FlashCharge, all housed in a refined unibody 3D glass design.
Strengthening the Ultimate Travel Phone vision through Visit Malaysia 2026
The partnership reinforces the X300 Series positioning as The Ultimate Travel Phone, supporting a shared ambition to help Malaysians and global visitors capture the richness of the country with clarity, ease and authentic detail.
As part of this joint effort, vivo will introduce nationwide initiatives including the Vision Plus Mobile PhotoAwards Malaysia and the vivo X300 Series Beyond X-traordinary Photography Workshop. These programs are designed to empower travellers and creators to tell stronger visual stories and to showcase Malaysia through their own lens.
