Vivo is gearing up to launch its X Fold 3 series and we finally have a launch date to look forward to. The company today confirmed that the new X Fold 3 line foldable phones will launch in China on March 26.

A lot has been revealed about the devices in the past few days. Just last week, a leak revealed the official marketing material of the smartphone, giving us a sneak peek at most of the features.

It reveals that the upcoming foldables feature an ultra-thin body with a lightweight design. In fact, when unfolded, it’s said that both the X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro will be thinner than the 2015 Vivo X5 Max, which is currently the world’s thinnest phone at 5.1mm.

Moreover, the X Fold3 Pro will be the first foldable phone to come with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, while the X Fold 3 is expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Both phones have also appeared on AnTuTu and Geekbench benchmarking platforms, respectively.

The X Fold 3 series will also feature impressive screens, including an 8.03-inch Samsung E7 AMOLED main screen with 2K resolution, 3,000 nits peak brightness, and an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. The inner screen will measure 6.5 inches and will also have an ultrasonic scanner.

In terms of cameras, both the X Fold3 and 3 Pro will have a 50MP main shooter, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 64MP periscope module, all equipped with OIS. They will also come with Vivo’s in-house V3 imaging chip.

On the software side, the phones will run on OriginOS 4 based on Android 14, while the battery capacity will be 5,500 mAh, supporting 120W wired and 50W wireless charging.

The Vivo X Fold 3 is rumored to be priced at around CNY 7,999 ($1,113), while the X Fold 3 Pro may cost CNY 9,999 ($1,391) for the base variant.
