Vivo X Fold 5 Could Launch Soon: Design, Specs, Camera, Display, and Everything We Know So Far

Vivo is all set to expand its foldable smartphone lineup with the upcoming Vivo X Fold 5. The company has teased the device via Chinese social media platform Weibo, sparking excitement with glimpses of its sleek design. Touted to be the thinnest and lightest foldable phone yet, the Vivo X Fold 5 may hit the Chinese market soon, although its India launch remains uncertain.

Design and Build

Vivo’s Product Manager Han Bo Xiao shared a 16-second teaser video, highlighting the ultra-slim profile of the Vivo X Fold 5. While the exact weight hasn’t been officially confirmed, leaks suggest the phone could weigh just 209 grams and measure 4.3mm when unfolded and 9.33mm when folded — slimmer and lighter than the Vivo X Fold 3 (219g) and competitors like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (239g, 12.2mm folded) and Oppo Find N5 (229g, 4.21mm unfolded).
