Vivo X Fold 5: Full Specs, India Launch & Should You Buy This Foldable?

If you are planning to buy a premium foldable phone in 2025, then Vivo X Fold 5 will definitely be on your top list. Vivo has been doing quite quietly in this segment for the last few months – and now it seems that X Fold 5 is ready to make a splash in the Indian market.

Foldable phones have always had some common problems – such as too thick design, low battery backup, inconsistent software experience and durability issues. But this time Vivo X Fold 5 comes with full preparation to solve all these problems.

The phone has already been launched in China, and its specifications have also been leaked

So will this foldable smartphone be a good option for Indian smartphones users ? Let’s see the full detail:

Design & Build Quality

The design of the new Vivo X Fold 5 will be much thinner and lighter than before. It will be about 2mm thinner and 20 grams lighter than the previous generation X Fold3 Pro — which is quite a big thing because foldable phones generally feel quite heavy and thick.

After folding, the total thickness of the phone will be just 4.Xmm — which is slimmer than standard flagship phones (like iPhone 15 Pro Max).

Vivo has used a new hinge mechanism and light-weight material, which makes its design look even more premium.

–  Ultra-slim body (4.Xmm)

–  20 grams lighter than X Fold 3 Pro

–  High-quality build

Display Quality

The most important thing is that Vivo is giving full transparency to its customers in terms of screen:

• BOE or Samsung display panel will be used for internal folding screen.

• Which panel is being used in different variants – this will be clearly mentioned.

This means you will not have to worry about screen lottery – as it happens in many brands.

Both screen options are tuned by Vivo to its flagship standards — with vibrant colours, better eye comfort and top-class brightness.

– Top-grade BOE/Samsung screens

– Clear variant-wise screen info

– No random screen mixing

– Excellent display tuning

The company says that this phone will provide the best zoom capability in foldables.

• New 4th-gen silicon negative electrode battery

• 2nd-gen semi-solid state battery — better performance in cold environments
