Vivo X Fold 5 launching on June 25: Everything to know about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 rival
It's going to be an intense foldable rivalry in the month of July. Not only is the Vivo X Fold 5, the successor to the X Fold 3 from last year, rumoured to release on July 10, but the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is also tipped to launch on the same date. We've already done a bunch of stories around the Galaxy Z Fold 7, so we won't delve into that here. Instead, let's turn our focus to the Vivo X Fold 5. As of now, the phone is expected to launch in India sometime in July, while the official China launch has been confirmed for June 25 at 7 PM local time. Here's everything you need to Vivo hasn't dropped any official teaser for India, the phone has already taken the internet by storm in China. Its product page is live on Vivo's official Chinese website, and pre-orders have begun. Interestingly, last year's X Fold 3 series had two models — standard and Pro — but only the X Fold 3 Pro came to India. This year, it seems like Vivo is starting with just one model — the standard X Fold 5. That said, we'll have to wait for June 25 to see if a Pro variant also makes an coming to what the device offers — a lot of the key details have already been shared by Vivo's product manager, Han Boxiao, on Weibo. He has confirmed that the phone will use 8T LTPO panels on both the inner and outer screens, offering a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and up to 4,500 nits peak brightness. Both displays are also expected to support TV Rheinland's global eye protection and Zeiss Master colour certification. Vivo claims this will deliver better clarity, comfort, and colour accuracy in all lighting conditions, compared to its The Vivo X Fold 5 also meets IP5X dust protection and an IPX9+ water resistance rating. It can reportedly be folded and unfolded 1,000 times even under a depth of 1m of water, and can keep working at temperatures as low as - key highlight is its weight and thickness. The X Fold 5 is said to be significantly slimmer and lighter than the previous model, weighing around 209g and measuring just 4.3mm when the specs front, the Vivo X Fold 5 is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, paired with up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. The camera setup is likely to include a 50-megapixel triple rear camera system, though finer details are still under wraps. The battery could be around 6,000mAh with support for 90W fast charging and 30W wireless charging — again, solid numbers for a the most surprising detail so far is that the Vivo X Fold 5 may offer support for Apple's ecosystem. According to the teasers shared on Weibo, the phone might be able to connect with the Apple Watch, access iCloud files directly, and even work with MacBooks and AirPods. If this turns out to be true, it would mark a rare moment of cross-platform compatibility — something no other Android brand has really said, the focus now remains on Vivo and how it positions the phone in terms of pricing in India. As mentioned above, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to launch around the same time, and also, it's highly unlikely that both phones will end up launching on the same date, considering these are two biggies from the smartphone industry we are talking about. However, if by even 1 per cent chance it does happen, if both the X Fold 5 and Z Fold 7 do launch on the same day, it's going to be an interesting day in smartphone history. July seems to be tuned to India Today Tech for all the latest on the upcoming foldable phones in July.

Mobiles with Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 could easily beat the performance of the upcoming iPhone 17
Snapdragon 8 Elite has proven to be a hit for Qualcomm, powering many of the latest flagships, including the Samsung Galaxy S25 series and the OnePlus 13 series. In fact, synthetic benchmarks suggest that it even outperforms the likes of the 3nm Apple A18 Pro, which powers the iPhone 16 Pro, Apple's current flagship. Now, with that in mind, rumours about Qualcomm's next major release, the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, are beginning to stir. In the latest update, tipster Digital Chat Station has posted on Weibo what appears to be the Geekbench 6 scores for the new chip. From the looks of it, Snapdragon 8 Elite 2-powered phones could maintain a healthy performance lead over rivals, including the iPhone 17 series. Here are the details. Digital Chat Station has suggested on Weibo that the successor to the chip, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, will achieve a Geekbench 6 multi-core score of 11,000 and a single-core score of over 4,000. For comparison, a phone like the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, which is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite, typically scores anywhere between 9,500 and 10,000 points in the multi-core score and around 3,000 points in the single-core score. Therefore, if the Snapdragon 882 scores around 11,000 in multi-core and 4,000 in single-core, it would make for a decent performance jump. However, it remains to be seen how the chipset performs in real-world life, how its thermals are, and how it performs across various price points. Recently, multiple reports have surfaced citing what could be the Geekbench 6 benchmarks for the Apple 19 Pro. Reportedly, it may score around 4,000+ in single-core and 10,000+ in multi-core performance. If true, this would suggest that Apple's chip might not outperform the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, especially in multi-core scores. However, this has not been confirmed yet and is based on tips, so should be taken with a grain of salt.
