vivo launched the X500, X500 Pro, and X500 Pro Max in China yesterday, and today the company has already revealed when they're coming to Europe. The European launch event will take place on October 27, which is also when pre-orders will start. The devices will then be released on November 5.

There is, however, something you need to know - while vivo's page talks about the "X500 series", the vanilla X500 is not shown. That may just mean that vivo wants to focus its marketing efforts on the Pro and Pro Max models, but it could also mean that the X500 isn't coming to Europe. If you register your interest on vivo's European website, you can get a voucher for "up to €120 off" the devices, valid until November 30, "while supplies last".

If you register after the phones are released on November 5, you'll only get an €80 discount.
