After the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 and the Xiaomi Mix Fold 2, it seems that Vivo also wants a slice of the foldable market in the second half of 2022, as the brand is already prepared to announce the company’s next foldable smartphone, the Vivo X Fold+ in China this September 26 (Monday).

Source: Vivo

Vivo’s upcoming flagship foldable launch event will be held in China on September 26 (Monday) today at 7 pm Beijing Time (GMT +8) / 4:30 pm New Delhi Time (GMT +4:30) / 1 pm Berlin (GMT +1).

The launch event will be live streamed on Vivo’s official online channels in China. For international audiences, you can head on over to the link below on September 26th, 2022 19:00 CST sharp to follow the reveal of the Vivo X Fold+.

Link to the official Weibo live stream here.

The upcoming Vivo X Fold+ has already been teased and leaked online for the past month, and to read more about the expected specs of this flagship foldable, you can head on over to our rumor roundup article here. Otherwise, here’s what you should know and expect from Vivo’s next iteration of its foldable future.

The Vivo X Fold+ is Vivo’s second try at making a premium foldable smartphone. Its predecessor, the Vivo X Fold, was launched back in April of this year and was critically praised in the industry for its bold leatherback design, lack of a visible crease, as well as a competent rear camera setup that can even rival the conventional camera slab flagships of 2022.

Naturally, Vivo has received much feedback from its first attempt at a foldable, and the Vivo X Fold+ seems like an iterative upgrade over the predecessor, with little to no design changes, but with improved internals inside.

Design-wise, the Vivo X Fold+ looks nearly identical to the Vivo X Fold. The rear panel features a large rectangular island module that houses a circular camera sensor setup and other necessary sensors like the LED flash. The back of the device will also feature a leather-like finish, and the device will be available in two previously available color options – Blue and Black, as well as a new exclusive eye-catching Red color from Vivo.

The upgrades confirmed so far are its internals. The new Vivo X Fold+ will feature Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile SoC which promises up to 30% higher power efficiency than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 found on the previous Vivo X Fold. The device will also feature a larger 4,730mAh battery than its predecessor, and support for faster 80W wired charging compared to 67W on the X Fold. The X Fold+ will also support Vivo’s proprietary 50W fast wireless charging that juice your phone from 0 to full wirelessly in less than an hour.

Vivo has also revealed that the X Fold+ is now more optimized for 5000+ Android apps on folding screens, as a result of the company’s software optimization for big-screen Androids. And besides those changes, the Vivo X Fold+ is expected to be the same everywhere else as the previous X Fold.

The Vivo X Fold+ would have two ultrasonic fingerprint scanners (one on the outer screen, and one on the inner folding screen) as well as an alert slider on the side. The display is rumored to be the same as the X Fold, meaning that we will likely see a large 8.03-inch E5 LTPO OLED 3.0 inner display with UTG that has a 120Hz refresh rate, 2K resolution, and a 4:3.5 aspect ratio on the X Fold+. The outer front screen on the device will have a 6.53-inch E5 OLED panel that has a Full HD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+ support.

As for RAM and storage, the device is said to come in two configurations – 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage and 12 GB RAM + 512 GB storage. Cameras are said to be the same quad camera setup on the X Fold, a 50 MP Samsung GN5 main sensor, 48 MP ultra-wide lens, 12 MP portrait lens, and a 5 MP periscope zoom lens with 5x optical zoom.

To know more about the Vivo X Fold+, such as pricing and availability, stay tuned to our coverage of the device here at Gizmochina on Monday!

Going by the rumors so far, we can expect the smartphone to have two ultrasonic fingerprint scanners as well as an alert slider on the side.

Looking at the Google Play listing, the device is set to carry the V2229A model number, which is identical to the model number spotted on other databases.

The Vivo X Fold+ was spotted on the Google Play Supported Devices List alongside other new smartphones like the Vivo X Note. Unfortunately, this listing does not reveal any other finer details regarding this new foldable phone apart from confirming its model number. Although, this does hint that the smartphone’s launch is just around the corner. We also have previous reports that hints at its specifications.

The main snapper will be accompanied by a 48-megapixel ultra-wide camera, a 12-megapixel portrait camera with 2x optical zoom, and an 8-megapixel periscope lens with 5x optical zoom.
