Editorial
(this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery and imaging performance) Vivo's best 2026 phone is a "Pro Max". A logical and incremental update of excellent X300 Pro, it comes with a top processor, 1500mAh bigger battery (!), >500ppi screen and much improved video recording. Expect top imaging, battery and processor performance
