Chinese tech company, Vivo is preparing for a new launch event in China, where the brand will unveil its first-ever foldable smartphone, the Vivo X Fold. The smartphone is set to launch on April 11. However, MySmartPrice.com and industry insider Ishan Agarwal have revealed the complete specifications and a new color variant of the X Fold foldable device ahead of the official event.
Vivo is all set to enter the world of foldable devices. It is among the first few entrants to have a smartphone in this segment. The company was expected to come up with an outward folding design, but it opted for the tried and tested in-fold mechanism instead. With the X Fold smartphone, Vivo aims to rival foldable smartphones from brands like Samsung.
The Vivo X Fold will have a 6.53-inch Full-HD+ outer display and an 8.03-inch QHD+ foldable AMOLED display. Both the screens will offer a 120Hz refresh rate and an in-display fingerprint scanner. The smartphone has an inward folding design with slim bezels. The cover display has a centrally-aligned punch-hole cut-out and curved edges. However, the inner panel offers a punch-hole cut-out on the right.
In terms of optics, the Vivo X Fold will have a quad rear camera setup, consisting of a 50MP main camera, a 48MP ultra-wide sensor, a 12MP portrait snapper, and an 8MP periscope sensor with 5x optical zoom. On the front, it will have a 16MP selfie camera.
Under the hood, the Vivo X Fold will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage. The handset will boot Android 12-based Origin OS Ocean and pack a 4,600mAh battery with 66W wired fast-charging and 50W wireless charging.
The connectivity features on the Vivo X Fold should include 5G, Wi-Fi 6, NFC, and Bluetooth. The official pricing and availability details of the smartphone will be announced by the Chinese tech company at the time of its launch on April 11. The handset is expected to arrive in Blue and Grey color options.
