Vivo X Fold 3 to launch in India

  • As per an industry source, the new Vivo X Fold 3 will also launch in India. Additionally, it will be the “slimmest foldable in the industry”.
  • For reference, the new Fold’s predecessor, the X Fold 2, measures 12.9mm in thickness, which is already quite sleek for a foldable form factor device, and the industry source claims that the new smartphone will measure even less. 
  • This will bring the new X Fold 3 quite close to the dimensions of some of the thicker smartphones, such as the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Google Pixel 8 Pro, which measure 8.6mm and 8.8mm thick, respectively. 
  • Vivo’s official launch announcement also gave us a glimpse into the design of the smartphone, and we can observe that the device has a thin body, with a circular camera module at the back and a large cover display on the outside. 
  • Unfortunately, the source has not revealed any additional information about the Vivo X Fold 3.
