Recent reports claim that Vivo will announce the Vivo X Fold 3 series of foldable phones and the Vivo Pad 3 series of tablets in China by the end of March. Ahead of the expected launch, a Weibo user has shared renders based on a leaked schematic of the X Fold 3 series released by tipster Digital Chat Station last week. DCS has also leaked almost all the specifications of the X Fold 3 Pro.

The Vivo X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro will likely sport a nearly identical design but with different internal components. New renders show a circular camera module placed in the top half of the back panel, unlike the top-right corner placement on the Vivo X Fold 2. The module houses three cameras, two LED flash units, and a ZEISS logo.

Reports suggest that the Vivo X Fold 3, equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, will not only be affordably priced but also debut as the thinnest and lightest foldable phone. The Pro model, on the other hand, is expected to be the first foldable phone equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.
