Slim Yet Strong: vivo X Fold5 Set for August Launch

vivo is set to launch its most advanced smartphone yet, the vivo X Fold5, in the Philippines this August. Marking the brand’s first foldable device in Southeast Asia, the X Fold5 combines high-end features with a premium design. It aims to set a new standard for foldable phones. Here are four key reasons why the X Fold5 is one of the most anticipated foldable devices of the year.

1. The slimmest and lightest foldable from vivo yet

Tired of bulky foldables? The vivo X Fold5 introduces a whole new level of sleekness. It weighs only 217 grams and measures just 4.3 millimeters when unfolded. That is as thin as two stacked coins, making it one of the most comfortable foldables to hold and use all day. At the heart of this innovation is vivo’s new 2nd-Gen Armor Architecture with Carbon Fiber Support Hinge. Designed with a rotating sliding structure, it reduces the pressure on the screen and helps eliminate the crease often seen on other foldable devices. The hinge is made of aerospace-grade steel with embedded carbon fiber metal nuts, increasing toughness by 47.3 percent compared to the previous generation.

 

2. Durable beyond expectations

Built to handle real life, the vivo X Fold5 is the first and only foldable in the world with triple protection ratings. It is certified with IPX8, IPX9, and IPX9+ water resistance, plus IP5X dust resistance. Whether in heavy rain or dusty roads, this phone stays protected. It has also passed a 600,000 fold test, proving its long-term durability. Even in cold environments as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius, the X Fold5 keeps performing. You can enjoy up to 20 hours of voice calls, 7 hours and 35 minutes of GPS navigation, and over 4 hours of photography even in extreme conditions.

3. Massive battery for all-day productivity

Professionals will love the vivo X Fold5’s 6000mAh BlueVolt battery. Thanks to the combination of fourth-generation silicon anode and second-generation semi-solid battery technologies, the X Fold5 delivers top-tier energy density while maintaining its slim profile. Whether you are working, creating, or streaming content all day, you can count on this foldable to keep going without frequent charging.

 

4. Flagship imaging power with ZEISS optics

The vivo X Fold5 features a co-engineered camera system with ZEISS, giving users a photography experience unlike any other foldable. It includes a 50 megapixel ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera and vivo’s in-house image processing algorithms that produce professional-grade photos instantly. Expect vivid colors, clear details, and stunning portraits that are perfect for social sharing or creative projects.

 

The vivo X Fold5 doesn’t just catch up with traditional flagships, it also sets a new benchmark. With powerful specs, next-gen design, and unmatched versatility, this foldable signals a major shift: foldable phones are no longer experimental, they’re also essential. This August, Filipino consumers will be among the first in Southeast Asia to experience the foldable revolution firsthand.
