Vivo X Fold+: What We Know So Far
The company launched the Vivo X Fold earlier this year and is now gearing up to launch the next-gen device in China next week. We are expecting that the new and upcoming phone will be an incremental upgrade over the last launched X Fold. The X Fold+ will come with Zeiss optics like other X series devices.
Based on past leaks and rumours, the upcoming Vivo X Fold+ will come with a 120Hz 8.03-inch foldable display and a 120Hz 6.53-inch FHD+ AMOLED cover display. The device is likely to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor. The phone will be available in Huaxia Red and Blue color options.
In the camera department, the device is tipped to feature a quad-camera setup with a 50MP main camera, a 48MP ultrawide camera, a 12MP portrait camera sensor and an 8MP periscope camera. The hole-punch cutouts will feature 16MP or 32MP front camera sensors. The phone is said to draw power from a large 4600 mAh battery.
Vivo is rumoured to launch the foldable phone with 80W fast charging support out of the box. It is also said to support 50W wireless charging. It will run Android 12 out of the box and is likely to feature Funtouch OS 12. If the device launches in the global market, we can expect Vivo to ship it with Fun Touch OS 12.
