Vivo is hosting its Spring launch event in China today, where the brand is expected to launch its first ever folding phone, the Vivo X Fold. The company is also expected two more devices – the Vivo X Note and a Vivo Pad tablet. Ahead of the launch event, here’s what to expect from the new devices, which could come to India later this year.
Vivo X Fold
The Vivo X Fold is set to be the company’s first ever folding phone. It features a premium design that resembles the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. This includes a hinge that goes down the middle of the device, splitting the larger inner screen in two, while an outer display is at users’ disposal when they want to use the phone without opening it up.
