Editorial report

vivo X Fold 5 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The vivo X Fold5 suits buyers who want a large foldable for reading, watching content and working on a spacious display. Its main trade-off is physical: at 226 g and 9.2 mm, it is heavier and thicker than most phones of its time.

The 8.03″ LTPO AMOLED foldable display reaches 4500 nits and delivers 413 ppi; both brightness and density are better than most phones of its time. Its 90.9% usable surface is among the highest, while 120 Hz is typical. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 16 GB of RAM and UFS 4.1 storage make a strong hardware package, and its AnTuTu result is better than most phones of its time.

The main camera combines 50 MP, an f/1.6 aperture and optical stabilization. The aperture is among the best of its time, while 3x optical zoom is also among the strongest offerings. The 6000 mAh battery has a typical capacity, but 80 W charging is better than most and 40 W wireless charging is among the fastest. Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4 and 5G give it connectivity that is among the best of its time.

With an overall NeoScore of 8.6, the vivo X Fold5 is among the best phones of its time. It is especially suited to buyers who prioritize a spacious foldable design, powerful hardware and fast wireless charging.
