Vivo X Fold 5 Set to Launch June 25: Lighter, Smarter, and Packed with Apple Ecosystem Surprises
Vivo X Fold 5 set to launch on June 25. Get ready for a sleek foldable under 209g, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Zeiss cameras, and full Apple ecosystem compatibility.
We learned from a report by Gizmochina that Vivo has revealed on Chinese social media that it will launch the Vivo X Fold 5 on June 25 at 7 pm.
If the report is true, the company will also launch wireless earbuds alongside the foldable phone. This is good news if you follow consumer electronics. With brands like Samsung gearing up for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 launch, Vivo’s announcement adds more heat to the foldable race.
But at this launch, everyone will surely be looking at the Vivo X Fold. This smartphone was teased with the “lighter and stronger” tagline.
If we go by the tagline and tipsters, then these smartphones are coming with great performance and a major upgrade for mobile enthusiasts.
Vivo X Fold 5: What We Know So Far
We don’t have the Vivo X Fold 5 in our hands yet, but based on social media leaks and insider reports, it could become the lightest foldable phone in the world, expected to weigh under 209 grams.
Vivo is expected to offer this device in three colours tha is Pine Green, White, and Titanium, just like some of its compact powerhouses such as the Vivo S30 Pro Mini.
Interestingly, this device will come with a Zeiss-branded circular camera module. From the official images so far, the design doesn’t appear drastically different from its predecessor, similar to how the OnePlus 13s maintained familiarity while introducing core upgrades.
Still, the new physical button added on the left side of the phone, replacing the mute switch is a small but curious tweak.
Reports suggest the Vivo X Fold 5 will sport an 8.03-inch inner screen and a 6.53-inch cover screen, both with 8T LTPO panels and high-frequency PWM dimming.
Vivo’s move echoes the innovations seen in rival designs, including the upcoming OPPO Find N5 Flip.
The phone also brings IPX9 water and IPX5 dust resistance, raising the bar for durability in foldables.
Flagship Performance & Camera Setup
In terms of performance, you can expect the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset paired with a 6,000mAh battery. This is a setup reminiscent of the rumored Xiaomi 16 and its battery-cam combo.
The phone will support 90W wired and 30W wireless charging. It’s perfect for users who value fast-charging flexibility.
Camera-wise, the phone may house a triple rear camera setup:
- A Sony 50MP IMX921 main sensor with OIS
- A 50MP ultra-wide lens
- A 50MP IMX882 periscope telephoto lens with 3x zoom
Despite a folded thickness of just under 5mm, the device promises high-end imaging performance. This mirrors the trend we’ve seen with the Vivo T4 Ultra, which offered pro-grade camera capabilities in a compact design.
Surprise Compatibility with Apple Ecosystem
One of the standout features of the Vivo X Fold 5 is its full compatibility with Apple’s ecosystem. This is a rare and bold move. It supports iCloud login, custom animated pairing with AirPods, and Apple Watch health data sync via the Vivo Health app.
This could sway users who admire Apple’s ecosystem but want more hardware freedom, especially at a time when Apple’s own iPhone 17 Air is facing scrutiny over its durability.
Vivo TWS Air3 Pro Also Expected
Alongside the foldable, Vivo is expected to unveil the TWS Air3 Pro. This a semi-in-ear ANC earphone available in standard and long battery variants, offered in Starry Black and Vitality White.
Given the company’s recent push with models like the Jovi V50 5G series, this event could help Vivo stake a bigger claim in both foldables and audio accessories.
Final Word
All things considered, the Vivo X Fold 5 looks set to make a serious mark in the foldable phone space.
With its ultra-light design, Apple ecosystem compatibility, powerful internals, and Zeiss-backed camera setup, Vivo is clearly aiming high.
And with the Vivo TWS Air3 Pro joining the launch event, users can expect a full ecosystem play.
If these features land as promised, June 25 could mark a big moment not just for Vivo, but for anyone keeping an eye on the future of flagship tech.
