Vivo seems to be gearing up for an aggressive beginning to the year 2026 in the Indian smartphone market, with the latest leaks trailing the entry timeline and pricing of the upcoming Vivo V70 Series, Vivo X200T, and Vivo X300 FE smartphones in the country even before the company makes an official announcement. It may be noted that the company has not made an official announcement regarding the same as of yet.
India Launch Timeline (Leaked)
As per recent leaks, the Vivo brand has planned a late January 2026 launch window for two of its prominent offerings:
- Vivo V70 Series
- Vivo X200T
The V70 Series of devices is expected to come in a minimum of two variants, which would be the Vivo V70 and the Vivo V70 Elite.
On the other hand, the Vivo X300 FE is expected to arrive in the market after the January launch cycle; however, no specific date has been confirmed regarding its release in India. This delayed launch pattern gives a clue about Vivo’s plans to position the X300 FE in a lineup between the high-end X series and the V series phones that are priced lower.
