The Vivo X500 has reportedly cleared China’s 3C certification with 90W charging and N79 5G connectivity, while the iQOO 16 has received approval with 100W charging. The X500 could also support multiple AI platforms and a Beidou satellite communication variant. Earlier leaks have pointed to three main X500 models with different displays, chipsets and camera systems. The range may also include an X500e. The X500 series is tipped to launch in September, followed by the iQOO 16.
