The gathering allowed guests to examine the vivo X Fold 5 up close, and they later tuned in to a livestream from Kuala Lumpur where vivo confirmed the opening of pre-orders for Malaysia. The event in Kuala Lumpur began with vivo Malaysia chief executive officer Mike Xu delivering his keynote address where he presented the key attributes of the vivo X Fold 5. 'The X Fold 5 embodies that promise. At just 217 grammes in Titanium Gray finish, it is one of the lightest foldables on the market, yet its carbon fibre support hinge is engineered to withstand up to 600,000 folds. 'Both displays set a new standard, an 8.03 inch main LTPO AMOLED screen (2480×2200) and a 6.53 inch cover display (2748×1172), each offering a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, and peak brightness of 4,500 and 5,500 nits respectively. 'Specifications include the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, up to 16 GB LPDDR5X memory, 1 TB UFS 4.1 storage, and OriginOS 5 based on Android 15, with a promise of four years of operating system upgrades. 'Our new BlueVolt dual silicon anode battery delivers an equivalent of 6,000mAh, with 80W wired and 40W wireless FlashCharge,' he said. Xu added that with a ZEISS co engineered triple 50MP rear camera array, complete with optical image stabilization and 100× HyperZoom, and dual 20MP front sensors, the X Fold 5 transforms from smartphone to pocket sized DSLR. As for productivity, he said the X Fold 5 'behaves like a compact laptop' and that for creativity and entertainment, it 'opens up a world of possibilities'. 'Since our debut in Malaysia over 11 years ago, we have built a community of more than seven million users across our X, V, and Y series lines, each tailoured to excel in zoom, portrait photography, or durability. 'The X Fold 5 unites our best technologies in imaging, performance, design and reliability. It is the culmination of our R&D and our unwavering commitment to innovation,' he said. A vivo representative demonstrates the X Fold 5's waterproof capabilities during the event at the Regas Premium Auto. Xu said today's event also signifies vivo's formal entry into Malaysia's premium segment as the company strives to continue elevating customer experience with exceptional products and services. 'I invite you to explore the X Fold 5 firsthand, and to join us on this exciting new chapter. Thank you for your support.' Those interested in acquiring the vivo X Fold 5 may now reserve the 16GB+512GB configuration for RM6,999 through vivo's official website.

'The exterior features adaptive LED headlamps, an illuminated kidney grille, 19 inch Y spoke M alloy wheels and rocket shaped tail lamps. 'Inside, a BMW Curved Display combines a 12.3 inch driver's panel with a 14.9 inch centre touchscreen alongside a head up display, BMW Interaction Bar, tri zone automatic climate control, and bespoke ambient lighting,' said a spokesperson. bmw Regas smartphone vivo malaysia

vivo Delivers Big Features In A Small Phone With The New X200 FE
Subscribe to our FREE So vivo Malaysia recently dropped the new vivo X200 FE , their first compact telephoto flagship under the X series. But before you rush to get one, here's a quick breakdown of what we saw and tried out at the launch. Looks & Feels Right off the bat, vivo made a big point about how the X200 FE is designed to be used comfortably with one hand. And to be fair, they're not wrong. At 7.99mm thin and weighing just 186g, it feels light, pocketable, and easy to grip for those of us who don't have ginormous hands. The 'squircle' frame paired with an aerospace-grade aluminium body gives it a solid, premium feel. Not slippery, not plasticky—just nice. And when it comes to colours, this phone comes in four bold options: Pink Vibe, Blue Breeze, Yellow Glow, and Black Luxe. We were especially drawn to Yellow Glow—it's bright, playful, and makes a statement. If you're the kind who treats your phone like a fashion accessory, you'll be into it. That said, if you're more on the minimalist side, Black Luxe is your safest bet. Now, the 6.31-inch flat display might feel a lil small if you're used to large-screen devices, and it might not be ideal if your main phone activity is Netflix or mobile gaming. But for scrolling, texting, and casual multitasking use, it works. Now, we didn't get to test it outdoors, but under the bright indoor lights, the 1.5K LTPO panel looked OK . vivo claims 1800 nits peak brightness, so ideally, visibility under our tropical Malaysian sun shouldn't really be a problem. Plus, the ZEISS Master Color Display promises cinematic-level colour accuracy, which seemed decent from what we saw. Performance Stuff Under the hood, it's all flagship specs. It comes with a MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chip, 24GB of memory, 512GB of storage, and a big 6500 mAh BlueVolt battery with 90W FlashCharge support. From our brief time with it, the phone felt snappy—apps opened fast, scrolling was smooth, and multitasking seemed solid. And bonus points for the phone's IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, Stereo Dual Speakers, NFC, and the Infrared Remote Control feature. Cameras Camera-wise, this phone is stacked—at least on paper. You've got a 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto, a 50MP ZEISS Main Camera paired with the Sony IMX882 sensor, and a 50MP front selfie camera right in the centre punch-hole. vivo also highlighted the phone's new trapezoidal periscope lens design. It basically uses an M-shaped optical path to keep the telephoto module compact without bulking up the phone. The star of the show is the ZEISS Multifocal Portrait system, which supports multiple focal lengths—23mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, and 100mm—to give your shots different moods and perspectives, which actually sounds super appealing if you're into taking close-ups and fill your gallery with headshots. And as for videos, it can shoot on 4K at 60fps and 1080p at 120fps. You also get the usual smart tools like AI Magic Move, Image Expander, and Reflection Erase, which are cool to have. Price & Promos The vivo X200 FE is priced at RM3,199, which puts it firmly in the flagship-lite category. But if you pre-order now, you'll get an instant RM200 rebate, bringing it down to RM2,999—plus some extra goodies too. Quick Thoughts From what we gather, the X200 FE looks like a strong pick if you're in the market for a compact, premium phone with solid cameras and flagship specs. The compact package is definitely the phone's main draw in our book, as it's one of the few phones that still respects people who don't want big, bulky devices in their hands and pockets.
