Vivo’s next foldable flagship may have just appeared in public ahead of its expected June launch. New images circulating on Chinese social media show actress Zhu Zhu attending the French Open women’s singles final while holding what is believed to be the upcoming Vivo X Fold 6. While Vivo has yet to officially reveal the device’s design, the images offer what could be our first real-world look at the foldable.
Vivo X Fold 6 spotted in the wild
The images show a foldable phone in a striking blue-green finish with a large circular camera module on the rear. The device appears to retain Vivo’s familiar design language while featuring a slim profile. One image also shows the phone in a partially folded state, giving a glimpse of its book-style form factor. Although Vivo has not confirmed that the handset in the photos is the X Fold 6, Chinese social media users and tipsters widely believe it to be the company’s next foldable flagship.
While Vivo has not officially disclosed the hardware specifications, reports suggest that the X Fold 6 could arrive with MediaTek’s upcoming Dimensity 9500 chipset. The foldable is also tipped to pack a sizeable 6,900mAh battery and a triple-camera system comprising a 200-megapixel primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens. It is likely to feature a side-facing fingerprint scanner like the previous generation.
The Vivo X Fold 6 will be positioned as an AI-focused foldable designed to offer more than just a larger screen. Vivo believes the next phase of foldable smartphones is centred on productivity, multitasking and AI-assisted workflows rather than hardware improvements alone.
Vivo has already confirmed that the X Fold 6 will debut with OriginOS 6 Fold and an upgraded version of Atomic Workbench. The feature is designed to let users run multiple apps within a task-focused workspace, reducing the need to constantly switch between applications. The company has also teased a new Atomic Workbench mode, improved AI assistants, enhanced on-device AI capabilities and deeper multitasking optimisations.
According to Vivo, the X Fold 6 aims to become the company’s most advanced AI productivity device yet. With the launch expected later this month, the French Open appearance has added to the anticipation surrounding the foldable. As far as launch is concerned, it is expected to debut by the end of this month.
