vivo is set to launch the X Fold5 in the Philippines, signaling its bold entry into Southeast Asia’s competitive foldable market. The announcement was made on vivo Philippines’ official Facebook page, though the exact launch date remains unconfirmed. This foldable phone boasts a lightweight, premium design coupled with flagship performance.
A Durable and Powerful Foldable
The X Fold5 sets a new benchmark for durability in foldable smartphones, featuring vivo’s 2nd-generation Armor Architecture with a Carbon Fiber Support Hinge crafted from aerospace-grade steel. This robust framework not only withstands over 600,000 folding cycles—exceeding industry durability standards—but also reduces the screen crease, a common pain point in foldable designs.
Engineered for resilience, the device boasts exceptional IPX8, IPX9, IPX9+, and IP5X ratings, offering top-tier resistance against water immersion, high-pressure jets, and dust ingress. Powering the vivo X Fold5 is a massive 6000mAh BlueVolt battery, supported by 4th-gen silicon anode and semi-solid battery tech for faster charging and prolonged lifespan, even under heavy use.
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the ZEISS-co-engineered quad-camera system, headlined by a 50MP Super Telephoto lens with advanced stabilization for crisp, detailed shots. While Vivo has yet to announce exact availability dates in the Philippines, a leaked suggested retail price for the 16GB/512GB variant is ₱109,999. The Vivo X Fold5 is positioned as a premium contender in the growing foldable segment in the Philippines.
With its blend of durability, power, and imaging excellence, the X Fold5 could accelerate the adoption of foldable devices in a market traditionally dominated by conventional smartphones. Filipino consumers longingly expect further details as vivo prepares to unfold the X Fold5 this August.
