vivo X Fold5 in for review
This is the vivo X Fold5 and it's coming to a few global markets! The phone is the successor to the vivo X Fold3 and X Fold3 Pro. There is not going to be an X Fold4, and it's likely that this X Fold5 will be the vanilla and Pro in one. The vivo X Fold5 ships with a USB-A to USB-C cable, a 90W charger, and a case. Vivo pushed the envelope with the design of the X Fold5. It's thinner than its predecessor - 9.2mm vs 11.2mm when folded, 4.3mm vs 5.2mm when open. That's a big difference. The new phone is also lighter at 224 grams compared to the old phone's 236 grams. The X Fold5 is now dust protected with an IP rating of IP58/IP59+. It's not completely dust-tight, that would mean a rating of IP68, but it's better than its predecessor, which had no official dust protection. The vivo X Fold5 Both the cover screen and the inner one have almost identical specs - 6.53-inch and 8.03-inch, respectively, both LTPO 120Hz 10-bit panels, but the cover screen has a higher theoretical peak brightness at 5,500 nits. Camera-wise, the vivo X Fold5 is a bit of a side-step to its predecessor. The main camera is a 50MP unit with a brighter f/1.6 lens, but has a smaller 1/1.56-inch sensor (vs 1/1.3-inch). The ultrawide angle has the same-sized sensor but a different 15mm f/2.1 lens; it still has phase detect autofocus. The zoom camera has a similar sensor to its predecessor (50MP 1/1.95-inch vs 64MP 1/2.0-inch), but a zoomier 85mm f/2.6 lens (vs 70mm f/2.6). Vivo also increased the battery by 5%, it's now a 6,000mAh unit. There's also a new custom button in the top right of the phone, which toggles between Vibration and Ring mode, and can flick on the flash - nice! The custom button is tiny Book-style foldables are getting better and better! Here are possibly the best three around, from left to right - the Honor Magic V5, the vivo X Fold5, and the Galaxy Z Fold7, which has finally caught up to the competition on hardware!

vivo X Fold5 dimensions and battery capacity revealed
The vivo X Fold5 will be announced on June 25 (Wednesday next week), but the company is already teasing some key aspects of the phone. For example, earlier this month it posted this image that compared X Fold5's thickness against the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Another teaser showed that the new model is lighter than the X Fold3 Pro. Neither teaser offered concrete numbers, though. vivo X Fold5 Now vivo exec Han Boxiao has decided to remove some of the ambiguity – 'the X Fold5 is about 2mm thinner and 20 grams lighter' than the X Fold3 Pro. That would mean a 216g phone that measures 9.2mm thick when closed (sub 5mm when opened, but the exact number depends on the hinge design). Unlike other brands pursuing thinness, vivo is not sacrificing battery life – the new model will have a 6,000mAh battery, 300mAh more than the thicker and heavier older model. This will be achieved with the industry's first fourth-generation silicon anode, writes Han. The silicon content will be 2.5x higher, which will increase battery density by 13%. Additionally, the battery will feature a second-generation semi-solid electrolyte, which will allow it to remain functional to very low temperatures of -30°C (-22°F). vivo X Fold5's 6,000mAh battery Previous teasers have told us that the vivo X Fold5 will set a new benchmark for ingress protection on foldables – IP5X for solids and IPX9+ for water. IP48 is the current best rating on a foldable. The IPX9+ rating specifically refers to the ability to fold and unfold the phone while it is submerged in water. vivo X Fold5 Additionally, the X Fold5 will use LTPO 8T panels for the cover and main displays, which will be able to reach 4,500 nits peak brightness and will boast Zeiss Master Color calibration.

Vivo X Fold 5 display details and key details officially revealed
Vivo is prepared to launch its new foldable mobile phone, the Vivo X Fold 5, soon. The company's product manager, Han Boxiao, recently posted an image on Weibo revealing the device's internal screen. This has provided insight into the display technology it will use. Let's take a look at what the upcoming foldable from Vivo has to offer. According to the image, the Vivo X Fold 5 is expected to use advanced LTPO 8T panels on both its inner and outer screens. These panels support an adaptive refresh rate that adjusts to the content being displayed, helping to deliver smooth visuals for activities such as scrolling and gaming. The phone is built with a high pixel density and resolution to enhance the display clarity.

This level of brightness will improve screen visibility even in bright outdoor conditions. The device also features full-brightness high-frequency PWM dimming as per the shared image. This, combined with TÜV Rheinland's Global Eye Protection 3.0 certification, aims to reduce eye strain during long usage sessions. Vivo has also partnered with Zeiss to tune the colour accuracy on both screens for precise and consistent colour output.

This button replaces the alert slider found on the previous X Fold 3 models. Vivo has not yet confirmed the button's function, but it might offer programmable shortcuts or quick access to certain features. Vivo has also confirmed the X Fold 5 will be lighter and thinner than its predecessor. It weighs 209 grams, which is less than the 219 grams of the X Fold 3 and the 236 grams of the X Fold 3 Pro. When unfolded, the phone measures 4.3mm in thickness, and when folded, it is 9.33mm thick. While these dimensions are slightly larger than those of the Oppo Find N5, the device still ranks among the slimmer and lighter foldable phones on the market.

It can operate in cold temperatures down to minus 20 degrees Celsius and has IP5X dust resistance and IPX9 water resistance ratings. Reports suggest that Vivo plans to launch the X Fold 5 in India, potentially on July 10, alongside the Vivo X200 FE. This would mark the first time the standard X Fold model becomes available in the Indian market, as earlier only the premium X Fold 3 Pro was sold there. The launch could expand foldable phone options for Indian consumers.

Vivo X Fold 5 is coming soon, here is everything we know about it from specs to price
Vivo's next big foldable — the Vivo X Fold 5 — is expected to launch in China this month. The good thing is that this time around, there's a good chance that Vivo might launch its standard foldable flagship in India as well. While the company has been experimenting with foldables for a while now, Indian customers have only had access to the premium X Fold 3 Pro, which launched last year for Rs 1,59,999 (16GB + 512GB). However, the standard X Fold 3 never made it to India. Well, that might change soon, as rumours suggest the X Fold 5 will reportedly launch in India alongside the Vivo X200 FE on July 10. advertisementThe Vivo X Fold 5 is rumoured to use the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset that powered the X Fold 3 Pro, which could allow Vivo to price the device more competitively. With key hardware already tried and tested, the company may focus on refinement and pricing rather than radical upgrades. And given how the Pro model was positioned at the ultra-premium tier, the X Fold 5 might aim for a slightly more accessible spot in the market. Let's hope for the best. A screenshot from Vivo X Fold 5's teaser video. (Credit: Vivo China) Now let's talk about what the X Fold 5 brings to the table. Early teasers from Vivo's China team have confirmed that it will be one of the lightest foldable phones in the world. As per the teaser, the device weighs 209 grams, lighter than the X Fold 3's 219g and X Fold 3 Pro's Read here - Vivo X Fold 3 Pro review: Exceptional camera, foldable screenIn terms of thickness, the Vivo X Fold 5 is said to measure 4.3mm when unfolded and 9.33mm when folded. While the numbers aren't enough to beat the Oppo Find N5 (4.2mm when unfolded and 8.9mm when folded) in thickness, it will still make it one of the slimmest and lightest foldables for the displays, the cover screen is expected to be a 6.53-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, along with an 8.03-inch AMOLED inner display with 2K+ resolution and the same 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the device will reportedly sport a 6,000mAh battery, making it the largest battery ever seen on a foldable phone. It is said to support 90W wired and 30W wireless performance should also be solid, at least on paper. There's a 32-megapixel selfie camera on both the inner and outer screens, while the rear camera setup includes a 50-megapixel Sony IMX921 primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens with autofocus, and a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. Other expected features include AI-powered enhancements, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, a 3-stage Alert Slider, and an IP rating, though the exact rating is yet to be is yet to officially announce the global launch date, but sources suggest that after the China launch this month, we could see the device hit Indian markets by early July — hence, the rumoured July 10 launch date.
