Innovation takes center stage this August as vivo officially announces the arrival of the vivo X Fold5 in the Philippines. This highly anticipated release marks a milestone for the brand, introducing its first foldable smartphone to Southeast Asia. As the most advanced device in vivo’s smartphone lineup, the vivo X Fold5 brings together sleek design, exceptional durability, powerful performance, and premium imaging capabilities.
Here’s a closer look at the top features that make the vivo X Fold5 a standout in the foldable phone segment.
Slimmer, Lighter, and Smarter
Foldable smartphones have long been associated with bulky builds, but vivo challenges that expectation with the X Fold5. Weighing only 217 grams and measuring just 4.3 millimeters when unfolded, it sets a new standard for foldable comfort and portability. That slimness is equivalent to the thickness of just two stacked coins, making it significantly easier to carry and hold throughout the day.
Behind this lightweight build is vivo’s 2nd-Gen Armor Architecture, enhanced with a Carbon Fiber Support Hinge. This upgraded hinge incorporates a rotating sliding structure that reduces pressure on the screen. As a result, the notorious crease found in many foldables is greatly minimized. Crafted with aerospace-grade steel and embedded carbon fiber metal nuts, the hinge is also significantly more durable, boasting a 47.3 percent increase in toughness compared to the previous generation.
Built to Endure Real-World Conditions
Durability is another area where the vivo X Fold5 shines. It is the first and only foldable smartphone globally to receive triple protection ratings. The phone is certified with IPX8, IPX9, and IPX9+ water resistance, in addition to IP5X dust resistance. Whether you’re navigating a rainy commute or dusty outdoor terrain, the X Fold5 is built to stay protected.
Its toughness is further validated by a 600,000-fold test, ensuring long-term reliability. vivo also tested the phone under extreme temperatures, and it continues to perform even in conditions as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius. In these cold environments, the X Fold5 delivers impressive endurance: up to 20 hours of voice calls, 7 hours and 35 minutes of GPS navigation, and more than 4 hours of photography without faltering.
Power That Keeps Up With Your Day
One of the key concerns for power users is battery life, and the vivo X Fold5 delivers on this front with a massive 6000mAh BlueVolt battery. This capacity is achieved through a combination of fourth-generation silicon anode and second-generation semi-solid battery technologies, resulting in higher energy density without compromising the device’s slim profile.
Whether it’s for work, streaming, or capturing content, users can rely on the X Fold5 to last through a full day of productivity. The thoughtful balance between performance and battery life means fewer interruptions for charging and more time to focus on what matters.
Advanced Imaging with ZEISS Optics
Camera capabilities have become a major deciding factor for smartphone buyers, and vivo has addressed this with a flagship-level imaging system co-engineered with ZEISS. The vivo X Fold5 features a 50-megapixel ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera, supported by vivo’s proprietary image processing algorithms.
This setup enables users to take professional-grade photos with ease, offering vibrant color accuracy, precise details, and compelling portraits. For creative professionals, hobbyist photographers, or anyone who loves capturing moments for social media, the imaging system on the X Fold5 brings a powerful camera experience to the foldable space.
A New Standard in Foldable Technology
The vivo X Fold5 doesn’t just aim to compete with other foldable devices—it challenges the capabilities of traditional flagship smartphones. With its combination of durable design, high-end imaging, long battery life, and cutting-edge engineering, it pushes foldable phones from niche innovations into essential everyday tools.
Filipino consumers will be among the first in Southeast Asia to experience this leap in smartphone design and performance. The arrival of the vivo X Fold5 in the Philippines signifies not just a product launch, but a redefinition of what a foldable phone can be.
