If you have been planning to buy the Vivo X300 FE, now might be a good time to rethink your decision. Vivo has quietly hiked the Vivo X300 FE's price by Rs 3,000 in India, making it the latest smartphone from the brand to be affected by the ongoing RAM crisis.
Vivo X300 FE Price in India Hiked
The information was first shared by tipster @saaaanjjjuuu on X and we have independently verified the price hike for the Vivo X300 FE via the Vivo India website.
Vivo X300 FE launched in India back in May 2026, priced at Rs 79,999 for the 12 GB + 256 GB variant. Then, the Vivo X300 FE received its first price hike in July 2026, taking it up to Rs 86,999. Now, with the current Rs 3,000 price hike, the same base model costs Rs 89,999.
The top-tier 12 GB + 512 GB variant of the phone hasn't received a relief either and is now priced at Rs 99,999, up from its launch price of Rs 89,999.
| Model | Launch Price | Hiked Price | Total Hike Since Launch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vivo X300 FE | 12 GB + 256 GB | Rs 79,999 | Rs 89,999 | Rs 10,000 |
| Vivo X300 FE | 12 GB + 512 GB | Rs 89,999 | Rs 99,999 | Rs 10,000 |
The good thing is that even after the price hike, Vivo is offering an Rs 8,700 instant credit card discount to HDFC, SBI and Axis Bank customers, bringing the final price down to just Rs 81,299.
Moreover, shoppers will also get up to 24 months of no-cost EMI starting from Rs 3,700 per month. This applies to HDFC, SBI and Axis Bank credit card customers. However, do note that EMI purchases are applicable for the hiked price of Rs 89,999 and the extra Rs 8,700 discount is not applicable here.
An important thing to note here is that these offers might not last for long, as they are likely meant to bring temporary relief to those not ready for the price hike. Hence, we would not recommend delaying your purchase. For more clarity, you can check out our dedicated Vivo X300 FE review.
To give you a quick recap of the Vivo X300 FE specs, it features a compact 6.31-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, paired with 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 4.1 storage.
It also features a 50 MP Sony IMX-921 ZEISS main rear camera, paired with a 50 MP Sony IMX-882 3x telephoto lens and an 8 MP ultrawide camera. At the front, there's a 50 MP selfie shooter. Fueling it all is a big 6,500mAh battery, backed by 80W fast charging support.
With that out of the way, note that Vivo is not the only brand to bring about price hikes. Just recently, the Oppo K14, K14x and A6s prices were hiked, followed by the Realme P4R receiving its first price hike.
Brands like OnePlus, Nothing, Samsung, Oppo and more have also hiked the prices of several smartphones, making it taxing for regular consumers to keep track of.
