Vivo Y600 Pro packs a 10,200 mAh battery into an 8mm-thin phone
The mid-range battery race has a new contender. Vivo's Y600 Pro, launched in China on April 30, 2026, squeezes a 10,200 mAh cell into a body just 8.15mm thin — a combination that no mass-market phone has managed before. For context, that's roughly double the capacity of a typical flagship iPhone or Galaxy S. The catch: Western availability is unconfirmed.
The battery claim
Vivo says the Y600 Pro can last 16.7 days on standby or around 12 hours of heavy continuous use. Those are manufacturer figures and haven't been independently tested, so treat them as aspirational. What is credible is the underlying hardware: 80W wired fast charging (not 90W as some early reports suggested — regulatory filings list 80W) and a 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7300e chip tuned for efficiency over raw power.
The Dimensity 7300e is a solid everyday processor — Geekbench multi-core scores sit around 2,900–2,950 — but its Mali-G615 GPU is a step behind Snapdragon 7-series rivals in graphics-heavy tasks. If you play demanding games, look elsewhere. If you stream, scroll, and take calls, it's more than enough.

The rest of the phone
The 6.83-inch AMOLED display runs at 1.5K resolution (2800×1260) with a 120Hz refresh rate. The main camera is a 50MP f/1.8 sensor; the selfie camera is 32MP. Both IP68 and IP69 ratings mean the phone handles submersion and high-pressure hot water jets. RAM options go up to 12GB LPDDR5, storage up to 512GB UFS 3.1, and it ships with Android 16 under Vivo's OriginOS 6 skin.

Will it reach the US or UK?
In China, the 8/128GB version costs around $307 and the 12/512GB tops out at $395. There's no US or UK pricing yet — and no confirmed launch date outside China. Industry insiders suggest the phone could arrive internationally as a rebranded iQOO model, but no markets or timeline have been announced.
If it does land here, it will compete against the Realme P4 Power (10,001 mAh, around £470 in the UK) and an incoming Redmi model also targeting the 10,000 mAh mark, per AndroidHeadlines. Honor's more aggressively priced X80 is also in the mix globally, though it targets a lower budget tier, per Gizmochina.
The Y600 Pro is available in four colours: Moon Black, Floating Gold, Starry Purple, and Boundless Blue.
The Y600 Pro launches in four colours — Moon Black, Floating Gold, Starry Purple, and Boundless Blue — and weighs 221g. If the iQOO rebrand materialises with competitive pricing, it could be a compelling pick for anyone who charges their phone once a week and wants to keep it that way.
