The schematic and the render reveal that the Vivo X Flip’s back will have a round-shaped camera module, which seems to house a triple camera unit. On its right, there is a triple LED flash and the ZEISS logo.

Below the camera module, there is a rectangle-shaped cover display. The remaining half has the Vivo logo. The right edge of the device will have a volume rocker and a power key.

Apart from the chipset, nothing else is known about the specifications of the Vivo X Flip. The flip phone is expected to come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset. Hopefully, upcoming reports will reveal more information about the X Flip. In all likelihood, the device may become official by early 2023 on the home market. At present, it is unclear whether it will be released on the global market.

In related news, Vivo is likely to unveil the Vivo S16e, S16, and S16 Pro smartphones in China this month. The Exynos 1080, Snapdragon 870, and Dimensity 8200 chipsets, respectively, will power the three phones, according to reports.

The official renders of the Vivo S16 Pro have revealed that it will have a punch-hole OLED display on the front and a triple camera unit on the back. The S16 is also expected to sport a similar design. Readers can visit this post to read the leaked specifications of the Vivo S16 and S16e.
