Just like others before it, the Vivo X Fold will have a secondary screen on the outside for when the larger screen is folded into the device’s interior.
The renders of the phone show that its main screen will have a hole-punch cutout for a selfie camera. The rear of the camera’s chassis features a rectangular camera block with a quad-camera array arranged in a circular design element. The flash is outside the circular element on the camera block.
Twitter tipster Digital Chat Station had earlier tipped the expected specs for the foldable device: the Vivo Fold X could be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset with memory options of up to 12GB RAM and up to 256GB of onboard storage.
The device is also tipped to feature a quad-camera setup on the back with a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultrawide lens, an 8MP periscope lens with 5X zoom and a 12MP portrait lens. The secondary display could be a 6.5-inch OLED screen.
According to Gizmochina, Vivo has confirmed that the Vivo X Fold is equipped with an AMOLED foldable screen with a 2k+ resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The phone could also pack a 4,600 mAh battery with support for 80W fast charging and 50W wireless charging, according to the publication.
