The vivo X Fold5 will weigh less than X Fold3's 219g as teaser video shows
The leading makers of foldables are in a race to slim down their devices – not just in terms of thickness but also in weight. vivo exec Boxiao Han shared a video of the vivo X Fold3 and the upcoming X Fold5 being weighed on a scale and the new model is clearly lighter. How light? Well, the X Fold3 is 219g, but no official number was given for the new model – so all we can say with certainty is that the vivo X Fold5 will be less than that. It has been more than a year since the release of vivo X Fold3. Now vivo X Fold5 will be released in June, weighing less than 219g, and will become the lightest big folding machine in the world. However, it is said that 8Gen3 chip is still used, which may indicate that the price… — ICE CAT (@UniverseIce) June 3, 2025 According to leaked specs, the X Fold5 will measure 4.3mm when opened and 9.33mm when closed. The X Fold3 is 4.7mm and 10.2mm, respectively. There are already devices that are thinner than that, e.g. the Oppo Find N5 is 4.2mm/8.9mm, but it weighs 229g. IceUniverse claims that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 will measure 4.2mm/8.9mm. So, it will be thinner than the vivo, but how much will it weigh? That's TBD at the moment. Anyway, back to the leaked specs – the vivo X Fold5 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, apparently, the same chip as on the Fold3 Pro. It will be paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage. The phone will have a triple 50MP camera on the back, including a 3x telephoto, and two 32MP selfies (one on each screen). vivo X Fold5 (left) and X Fold3 (right) We took some screenshots of the video (above) and you can see that the vivo X Fold5 is indeed thinner than the X Fold3. However, the phone is shown with its main screen up, which doesn't reveal much detail. That screen will be an 8.03' 120Hz '2K+' panel, while the cover display will be a 6.53' 120Hz LTPO OLED. The battery is said to have 6,000mAh capacity, 90W wired and 30W wireless charging. This hasn't been confirmed officially yet, but the vivo X Fold5 (alongside the X200 FE) are expected to be unveiled on July 10, just over a month from now. Source (in Chinese) | Via

Vivo X Fold 5 leak reveals a foldable beast with the biggest battery yet
Vivo X Fold 3 Pro. | Image Credit - PhoneArena A new leak has spilled the beans on the spec sheet of the upcoming Vivo X Fold 5. Last year, Vivo's X Fold 3 Pro proved to be a series contender for the foldable phone market. The company released the X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro in March last year, and now, rumors about the successor have surfaced. This time around, the company seems to be planning not two, but one device, and by Chinese tradition, it won't be carrying the number 4, but instead will likely be called the Vivo X Fold 5. Now, the folks at XpertPick, in a collaboration with reputable leaker Yogesh Brar, have gotten their hands on specs for the upcoming foldable phone . Apparently, this would be the global version of the phone. Vivo X Fold 5 leaked specs: 6.53-inch cover display, 8.03-inch foldable display Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 16GB of RAM, 512GB storage 6,000mAh battery, 90W wired, 30W wireless charging Triple camera system, 50MP main, 50MP ultrawide, 50MP 3x periscope telephoto 32MP selfie camera cover screen, 32MP internal camera First off, the phone is said to feature a 6.53-inch LTPO cover display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Opening the foldable, expect to see a big 8.03-inch AMOLED display with 2K+ resolution and once again, the fast 120Hz refresh rate. Curiously enough, the foldable is said to sport the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which is the same processor found in its predecessor, the Vivo X Fold 3. That's a peculiar decision, given the fact that this year's flagship devices rock the Snapdragon 8 Elite, which is notably faster than the Gen 3. On the upside, the foldable is said to sport a big 6,000mAh battery, making it the phone with the biggest battery capacity currently on the market. Paired with the hefty battery is 90W wired charging and 30W wireless charging, once again, top-notch speeds. The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro. | Image Credit - PhoneArena The triple camera system on the phone's back also seems promising, judging by this leak. The 50MP Sony IMX921 main camera will reportedly be complemented by a 50MP ultra-wide with autofocus. The third camera is said to feature a 50MP Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. Excellent specs, and this improvement here is definitely needed over last year's somewhat of a letdown with the camera of the X Fold 3 Pro (as you can see in our review). The phone is said to be equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, a 3-stage Alert Slider, of course, AI features, and an IP rating. The publication doesn't specify the IP rating the foldable may get. Meanwhile, the X Fold 3 Pro sported an IPX4 rating. And of course, we can't speak foldables in 2025 without mentioning thickness, which seems to be one of the phone makers' biggest obsessions nowadays. The Vivo X Fold 5 is said to measure just 4.3mm when unfolded and 9.33mm when folded, which makes it pretty on par with the slim-chic beauties. The world's current thinnest foldable, the Oppo Find N5, measures 4.2mm unfolded and 8.9mm folded, so the Vivo may not steal its crown, but still, it may get close. In the meantime, Samsung may also be ready to join the trend of superslim foldables, and the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is said to be eye-wideningly thin: 3.9mm unfolded and 8.9mm folded. As for the Vivo X Fold 5's release date, nothing is known at this moment. The leak also doesn't offer information on the phone's price or color variants. The curious choice of last year's flagship processor instead of this year's may influence the price, or it may not; we don't have concrete leaks on this just yet. For reference, the X Fold 3 Pro started around $1,500 (although it isn't sold in the U.S.).As for the name, if you've been following China-based brands for some time, you know already: the number 4 carries some seriously grim associations traditionally in Chinese culture, so Vivo skipping the number 4 and going straight to 5 shouldn't surprise you.
