Vivo has launched the X Fold 5 with significant upgrades, including a massive battery, high IP rating, and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. The foldable phone boasts impressive camera specs and a large inner display, rivaling Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7.
Vivo has released the Vivo X Fold 5, their newest book-style foldable with a tonne of major improvements and top-tier features, like an enormous battery and a high IP certification. Launching first in China, the X Fold 5 is soon expected to break cover internationally given that its predecessor, the critically acclaimed Vivo X Fold 3 Pro, was made available in markets like India. Indeed, there is a lot of conjecture that Vivo would introduce it in India, maybe in the coming weeks, along with another phone known as the Vivo X200 FE. It will compete with Samsung's next Galaxy Z Fold 7, which will go on sale worldwide on July 9.
