vivo X300 Ultra puts telephoto imaging to test at NBA House

How quickly can you spot a subject, frame it, and capture it from a distance? At the Philippines’ first-ever NBA House, vivo turned that question into a fast-paced imaging challenge with the vivo X300 Ultra.

Held from August 29 to 30 at SPACE at One Ayala, NBA House Philippines brought basketball fans together for an immersive celebration of the sport and its culture, spanning basketball, fashion, music, and entertainment. The two-day event also featured special appearances from basketball icons Jason Kidd, Lauren Jackson, and Tony Parker.

As one of the event partners, vivo brought the vivo X300 Ultra to the heart of the experience through the vivo Imaging Challenge, giving participants the opportunity to put its telephoto imaging capabilities to the test.

Participants were given specific items to capture based on the host’s instructions, with only a limited amount of time to find their targets and take the shot using the vivo X300 Ultra paired with its 400mm Equivalent vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra.

With a busy event environment around them, participants had to stay alert and react quickly. They had to identify the right subject, adjust their framing, and capture it from where they were standing, all within seconds.

The challenge turned smartphone photography into an experience that felt more like a game. Instead of simply trying out a camera at a display booth, participants had to put the device to use while navigating the excitement and movement of NBA House.

The activity also gave participants a firsthand look at how extended telephoto imaging can be useful in large, crowded spaces.

The vivo X300 Ultra with the telephoto extender kit allows users to frame distant subjects without needing to physically move closer. This can be particularly useful when photographing moments at sporting events, concerts, or other busy venues where space and distance can make it difficult to get the desired composition.

For participants, the experience was about making quick decisions: spotting what they needed to capture, finding the right frame, and trusting the device to help bring their subject closer.

By putting the X300 Ultra into the hands of NBA House attendees, vivo turned its imaging technology into something participants could actively experience rather than simply observe.

Beyond the challenge, vivo also made sure participants had something to remember the experience by. Those who took part received exclusive prizes, including a puffer vag, X80 Bluetooth speaker, and vivo Air Buds.

The activation added another way for fans to engage with NBA House, where basketball culture extended beyond the game itself. With legends, fans, creators, and enthusiasts gathered under one roof, the event became a place to celebrate the sport while creating moments of their own.

For vivo, the experience was a natural extension of its focus on mobile imaging, helping people get closer to the moments they want to capture, even when they are happening from a distance.

The experience at NBA House showed how telephoto imaging can make it easier to capture moments from a distance, giving fans another way to get closer to the action and create memories of their own.

The vivo X300 Ultra is now available for Php 109,999 at vivo concept stores nationwide and the vivo e-store. Follow vivo Philippines on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and X, or visit the official vivo website to stay updated.

Jason Kidd, Lauren Jackson get up close with Filipino fans at vivo, NBA meet-and-greet

 

Filipino basketball fans got a rare chance to meet two of the sport’s biggest names as NBA champion Jason Kidd and WNBA legend Lauren Jackson came together for an intimate vivo x NBA meet-and-greet at the vivo Concept Store in SM Megamall.

Held on August 28, the gathering brought Kidd and Jackson closer to 30 selected fans for an afternoon of basketball stories, career insights, and personal interactions.

The two Hall of Famers opened up about the experiences behind their decorated careers, from handling pressure early on to learning from failure, finding great teammates, and continuing to grow beyond the court.

Lessons from basketball legends

For Kidd, who went from NBA champion and 10-time All-Star to Olympic gold medalist, Hall of Famer, and coach, one of the biggest lessons came from learning to embrace every stage of the journey.

“Enjoy it. A lot of times, you're in the moment, you're so competitive trying to figure out how to win, and sometimes don't take a second just to enjoy it,” Kidd shared. 

He also shared a simple reminder about dealing with setbacks, something that applies both on and off the court.

“It’s alright to fail. We've all missed the shots, we've all turned the ball over, we've all made mistakes, but you learn from those mistakes and own those mistakes. I think that's the key in life,” he said. 

For Jervey Limjoco of Mandaluyong, a self-proclaimed No. 1 Jason Kidd fan in the Philippines, it was Kidd’s leadership and ability to elevate the players around him that made him a standout.

“It’s his leadership, how he breaks down the game and makes everyone around him better. His passing, his ability to make a pass that leads to another pass that eventually helps his team score. That’s what really stands out to me about Jason Kidd,” Limjoco shared.

Jackson, meanwhile, reflected on her own journey as a three-time WNBA MVP, two-time WNBA champion, Olympic medalist, and Hall of Famer, including her return to basketball after an eight-year break.

For young athletes dreaming of following in her footsteps, her message was simple: make room for the game and, most importantly, enjoy it.

“Create a space for them to exist and enjoy and love it,” Lauren shared. 

For both legends, basketball was never just about trophies. It was about the people, experiences, setbacks, and moments that shaped their careers.

The Q&A then led into the highlight many fans had been waiting for: the meet-and-greet itself.

Selected fans got to meet Kidd and Jackson up close, receive exclusive posters, and take an official photo with the two basketball icons.

For fans who have spent years watching their careers from afar, the experience offered a rare chance to stand beside the legends they grew up watching.

Moments worth keeping with basketball legends 

The afternoon also highlighted how technology has changed the way fans experience and preserve basketball moments.

When asked what they would have loved to capture if today’s smartphone camera technology had been available during their playing careers, Kidd pointed to how smartphones now help people stay connected with the people who matter.

“To capture something, I love that we have it now, to be able to stay in touch with family and friends,'' Kidd shared. 

Jackson reflected on how technology can make even distant games feel close. “You could be playing miles and miles away but it could be right here, right on your phone. I think that's pretty crazy,” Lauren mentioned.

Anne Curtis, BJ Pascual ride rollercoaster shot on vivo X300 Ultra

Capturing a great shot is one thing. Capturing one while your subjects are speeding through a rollercoaster at up to 97 kilometers per hour is another.

Anne and BJ took on the TRON Lightcycle Power Run at Shanghai Disneyland, one of Disneyland’s fastest and most futuristic attractions.

At the heart of the action, the vivo X300 Ultra's 200MP 85mm ZEISS Gimbal-Grade APO Telephoto Camera brought the duo closer into frame, capturing their expressions and reactions as the ride raced through its futuristic track.

https://www.tiktok.com/@vivo_philippines/video/7673361440908135698

Taken at 85mm, f/2.67, 1/200s, ISO 50, the shot showcases the vivo X300 Ultra's dedicated telephoto camera in a challenging, fast-moving environment. Its 3° Gimbal-Grade OIS and 60 fps AF Tracking are designed to help keep moving subjects steady and in focus, making it possible to capture the rush of the ride while keeping Anne and BJ at the center of the frame.

The result goes beyond simply documenting a rollercoaster ride. At 85mm, Anne and BJ's expressions become the story, the laughter, adrenaline, and split-second reactions captured as they hurtle through one of Shanghai Disneyland's most thrilling attractions.

At 97 km/h, there is no time to stop, pose, or ask for another take. The moment happens once, and the camera has to be ready for it. 

With its 200MP telephoto camera, high-speed AF tracking, and gimbal-grade stabilization, the vivo X300 Ultra is built to bring fast-moving subjects closer while keeping the action in sight.

The best moments sometimes happen from a distance, at full speed, and without warning. With the vivo X300 Ultra, you can zoom in and keep the excitement in frame.

Anne Curtis continued her Shanghai trip at Shanghai Disneyland, where the vivo X300 Ultra captured her at two of the resort’s five branded photo spots, showcasing views of the Enchanted Storybook Castle and Alice in Wonderland Maze.  The photo spots are part of a new vivo and Shanghai Disney Resort alliance that introduced five designated locations across different themed lands, giving guests recommended angles for photographing some of the park’s most recognizable scenes.

Its ZEISS Master Color imaging system is designed to maintain natural-looking color and detail across different lighting conditions, making it suited to the changing scenes of a full day at the park. “It was a very, very busy day but so much fun. Of course, what a way to end it at Shanghai Disneyland. They say it is the happiest place on earth, and it truly was the happiest day today. Thank you so much vivo family. I really had so much fun,” Curtis said. “Travel photography is ultimately about helping people keep the feeling of a place long after the trip is over,” said Liu Lu, vivo Philippines Brand Marketing Director. “With the official photo spots at Shanghai Disneyland and the imaging capabilities of the X300 Ultra, guests have new ways to frame both the landmark and the personal moments that make the visit memorable.” Beyond photography, the vivo X300 Ultra is equipped for extended travel use with a 6,600mAh BlueVolt battery, 100W FlashCharge, and 40W wireless charging.

Anne Curtis traded the studio for the streets of Shanghai as she explored two of the city's most recognizable destinations through the lens of the vivo X300 Ultra, joining celebrated fashion photographer BJ Pascual for the smartphone brand's latest global campaign shoot.

Set against the futuristic North Bund skyline and the preserved stone-gate lanes of Shikumen in Huangpu District, the shoot highlighted Shanghai's blend of modern architecture and cultural heritage while allowing Curtis to put vivo's flagship camera smartphone to the test in real-world settings.

https://www.tiktok.com/@vivo_philippines/video/7669600943486323989

One of the first stops was the Silver Egg at the North Bund, where Curtis experimented with vivo X300 Ultra's 200-megapixel 85mm ZEISS Gimbal-Grade APO Telephoto Camera to photograph the Oriental Pearl TV Tower from afar. 

Reviewing the image, she pointed out how the smartphone was able to tightly frame the landmark, showcasing its red circular rooftop. "This is how tight you can get. That's crazy. Insane," Curtis said after capturing the shot.

The production later moved to Shikumen, a historic neighborhood known for its traditional stone-gate architecture and pedestrian streets. Surrounded by preserved heritage buildings, Curtis reflected on how the location offered more than just a backdrop for the campaign.

"I really love where we're shooting right now, which is considered like a heritage promenade, so I get to see a lot of heritage architecture, not only just see it but shoot alongside it," she said.

Photographed by BJ, the campaign combined fashion, travel, and street photography across two distinctly different settings, showcasing how the city's contrasting landscapes can be captured using a single device.

"Shanghai offers an incredible visual contrast between contemporary architecture and historic neighborhoods, making it an ideal setting to demonstrate what the vivo X300 Ultra is capable of in the hands of creators," said vivo Philippines Brand Marketing Director Liu Lu. "The campaign reflects how today's smartphone photography can adapt to different environments while preserving detail, depth, and perspective."

The impressive pace reflects vivo's manufacturing capabilities, combining intelligent automation with meticulous quality control to deliver smartphones to users around the world.
