Vivo X Fold 5: Stepping into Premium Territory
This is Vivo’s latest foray into the high-end foldables market. The X Fold 5 comes equipped with a dual AMOLED screen setup — a 6.53-inch external display and an 8.03-inch inner display. Both support 120Hz refresh rate and peak at an impressive 4,500 nits of brightness. There’s TÜV Rheinland eye protection certification as well, which might come in handy for long screen-time days.
It runs on the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and includes up to 16GB RAM with 512GB internal storage. A robust 6,000 mAh battery keeps things moving, and it supports 80W wired and 40W wireless fast charging.
The camera setup feels thoughtfully designed: three 50MP rear sensors — including a Sony IMX921 main sensor, a Samsung JN1 ultra-wide, and a telephoto lens — all co-engineered with Zeiss. For selfies, there are two 20MP front-facing cameras. Folded, it’s 9.2 mm thick, and when opened, just 4.3 mm. Weighs around 217 grams, which is relatively manageable for a foldable of this size.
Expected Price in India: ₹1,49,999 for the 16GB RAM + 512GB variant
Vivo X200 FE: Compact, Yet Punchy
The Vivo X200 FE, meanwhile, is geared toward users who prefer a lighter, more manageable form factor without sacrificing too much performance. It has a 6.31-inch AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution and the same 120Hz refresh rate. The device is IP68 and IP69 certified, so you’re covered against dust and most water scenarios.
Under the hood, it’s powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, paired with up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage. It shares the same 6,000 mAh battery capacity as the Fold, but this one charges even faster with 90W wired support.
Its camera array includes a 50MP Zeiss IMX921 primary shooter, a 50MP telephoto lens, and an 8MP ultra-wide. Up front, a 50MP wide-angle camera takes care of selfies and video calls. It ships with Funtouch OS 15 based on Android 15 and comes in three color options — yellow, blue, and grey.
Expected Price in India:
- ₹54,999 for 12GB RAM + 256GB storage
- ₹59,999 for 16GB RAM + 512GB storage
- Possibly ₹49,999 with launch offers on base variant
Yes, the charger is included in the retail box — something that’s almost worth noting nowadays.
