vivo Y300 Pro has a ridiculously huge battery

Last week the vivo Y300 5G leaked, and today it's time for another member of the same upcoming family to surface: meet the vivo Y300 Pro. This will be the successor to the Y200 Pro which was only announced in May - vivo sure is moving fast with the Y series.

The Y300 Pro's main claim to fame will undoubtedly be its humongous 6,500 mAh battery, which is a huge step up from the 5,000 mAh cell of its predecessor. But wait, there's more - while the Y200 Pro's 5,000 mAh battery charges at 44W, the Y300 Pro's 6,500 mAh battery will charge at 80W.

Although we can only speculate on charging time, we assume vivo is targeting around an hour here. The retail box for the Y300 Pro has been leaked and you can see it above.

Unfortunately, no other details are known about the device so far, but now that the leaks have started, we expect to hear much more about it in the coming weeks.

For what it's worth, the Y200 Pro comes with a 6.78-inch 1080x2400 120 Hz AMOLED touchscreen with 1,300-nit peak brightness, the Snapdragon 695 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a 64 MP main camera with OIS, a 2 MP depth sensor next to it, and a 16 MP selfie snapper. We're hoping that at least some of these specs get upgraded in the Y300 Pro.

Well, what about the Vivo X Note, the Honor X30 Max and the Lava Z2 Max, then? Those are at most 3 years old and are all larger than 16:9 6.0" phones.

Do notice the fact that I've specified "modern smartphones", which in my context, does not include any phone prior to the pandemic. I'd rather classify the Mate 20 X as a "semi-modern" smartphone, as I've compl...
