Gadgets: Foldable, unforgettable
BRIGHT ENOUGH TO ANNOY THE SUNWith an 8.03-inch inner and 6.53-inch cover AMOLED, both at 120Hz and 4,500 nits, you won't squint, no matter where you are. Colours pop, blacks go deep, and LTPO tech keeps things smooth yet power efficient. Some apps still wrestle with the foldable format (looking at you, Instagram), but that's an industry-wide growing pain, not a Vivo blunder.
ZEISS KNOWS BEST (MOST OF THE TIME)Three 50MP cameras co-engineered with Zeiss deliver crisp detail and punchy colours in daylight. The Zeiss filter tries to keep things natural but sometimes over-brightens the scene. Portraits? Great detail, but skin tones can get a tad too rosy. Low-light shots are solid, though Samsung's Z Fold 7 has a slight edge. For videos, 4K at 60fps is the sweet spot—stable and sharp, ready for your next viral moment.NOT THE FASTEST, BUT DEFINITELY THE SMARTESTVivo sticks with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (last year's champ), and while spec-heads may scoff, real-world performance is smooth. With 16GB RAM and 512GB storage (plus LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0), multitasking is a breeze, and gaming is respectably smooth. Just don't expect console-level graphics. Software's covered by FunTouch OS 15 and the surprisingly useful Origin Workbench, letting you run five apps at once for full-on productivity chaos. Four years of Android updates and five years of security is decent, though the competition stretches it tad further.advertisementOUR FINAL TAKEA huge 6,000mAh battery (biggest in a foldable yet) delivers a day and a half of solid use, charging fast at 80W (and wirelessly at 40W). Even after hours of video and gaming, you'll rarely be left hunting for a charger. The Vivo X Fold 5 delivers on design, durability, display, and who want less fragility and more function, it's the real deal.Price: Rs 1,49,999
