 Vivo T4x 5G India Launch Date Unveiled: A Budget 5G Powerhouse Hits the Market

March 1, 2025, 9:01 AM IST – Tech enthusiasts across India have a new date to mark on their calendars: March 5, 2025. Vivo has officially confirmed that its much-anticipated budget 5G smartphone, the Vivo T4x 5G, will launch in India next week, promising to shake up the affordable smartphone segment with impressive specs and a wallet-friendly price tag. Here’s everything we know so far about this turbocharged contender.

Launch Date Locked In: March 5, 2025

After weeks of speculation and teaser campaigns, Vivo dropped the big news via its official channels, including a post on X from Vivo India that sent fans into a frenzy. The Vivo T4x 5G is set to debut on March 5, putting an end to earlier rumors that pegged a later March release. Originally, leaks suggested a broader timeline, but Vivo’s decision to accelerate the launch to next week signals confidence in the device’s readiness—and perhaps a strategic move to capture the market early in 2025’s first quarter.

The announcement aligns with Vivo’s teaser campaign, which began mid-February with cryptic hints about a phone “turbocharged with the largest battery ever in the segment.” A dedicated Flipkart microsite has since gone live, confirming that the T4x 5G will be available exclusively on the e-commerce platform, alongside Vivo’s official website and select offline stores.

What to Expect: Specs That Pack a Punch

The Vivo T4x 5G is shaping up to be a game-changer in the sub-₹15,000 category. Here’s a rundown of the key features teased and leaked so far:

• Battery Beast: Vivo’s calling it the “largest battery ever in its segment,” and all signs point to a massive 6,500mAh powerhouse. That’s a 500mAh upgrade over its predecessor, the T3x 5G (6,000mAh), promising up to two days of juice on a single charge. Pair that with 44W fast charging, and you’ve got a device built for endurance.
• Performance Boost: Under the hood, the T4x 5G is expected to run on the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset, a step up from the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 in the T3x. Leaks suggest it’s scored over 728,000 points on AnTuTu, hinting at smooth multitasking and solid gaming performance for budget buyers.
• Display Delight: A 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate is on the cards, offering vibrant visuals and buttery-smooth scrolling—perfect for binge-watching or casual gaming.
• Camera Setup: The rear is tipped to sport a 50MP AI-powered primary camera paired with a 2MP secondary sensor, while an 8MP front camera handles selfies. AI enhancements like Photo Enhance and Eraser could elevate the photography game.
• Design and Extras: Expect IP64 dust and water resistance, dual stereo speakers, and a Dynamic Light feature—a notification LED that pulses differently for various alerts. Color options? Pronto Purple and Marine Blue are rumored to steal the show.
• Software: The T4x 5G will likely ship with Funtouch OS 15 based on Android 15, offering a clean, bloatware-light experience with regular updates promised.

Pricing: Affordable 5G for All

Vivo’s playing it smart with pricing. The base variant (6GB RAM + 128GB storage) is expected to launch around ₹13,999, with the 8GB + 128GB model hitting ₹14,999. Posts on X and early reports even suggest an effective price drop to ₹12,499 with bank offers, making it a direct rival to Redmi and Realme’s budget 5G offerings. For context, the T3x 5G started at ₹13,499 (now slashed to ₹11,990), so the T4x brings more muscle without breaking the bank.

The Buzz: What Fans Are Saying

The online chatter is electric. Tech fans on X are buzzing about the 6,500mAh battery—“a true marathon runner,” one user quipped—while others are hyped for the Dimensity 7300’s gaming chops. Some skepticism lingers, though; a few wonder if the LCD panel and 2MP secondary camera might underwhelm compared to AMOLED-sporting competitors. Still, the consensus? Vivo’s onto something big with this one.

Why It Matters

The Vivo T4x 5G arrives as 5G adoption surges in India, driven by affordable plans and expanding networks. With premium features like a high-refresh-rate display and robust battery life at a sub-₹15,000 price, it’s poised to attract first-time 5G buyers and upgraders alike. Vivo’s T-series has always targeted value-driven users, and the T4x 5G looks set to raise the bar.

What’s Next?

Mark your calendars for March 5, when Vivo pulls back the curtain at an online launch event (details TBD). Pre-orders are expected to kick off immediately after, with Flipkart likely dangling discounts and exchange offers to sweeten the deal. Will the T4x 5G live up to the hype? We’ll be watching closely—stay tuned for our hands-on coverage as this budget beast hits the shelves.
