| Vivo Officially Unveils the X Fold 5: A Powerful Foldable Smartphone That Works Seamlessly with Apple Watch and AirPods. |
Vivo has officially introduced its latest foldable smartphone, the Vivo X Fold 5, in China. This new device stands out for its slim form, premium hardware, and a groundbreaking feature — full compatibility with Apple Watch and AirPods, a first for an Android device.
Sleek Design and High-End Displays
The Vivo X Fold 5 features a 6.53-inch LTPO outer display and a larger 8.03-inch foldable AMOLED main screen with a 2K+ resolution. Both panels support a 120Hz refresh rate, ensuring smooth visuals whether you're gaming, streaming videos, or multitasking.
The foldable screen uses a unique structure that makes it easy to disassemble for repairs. The device remains impressively thin — 9.2mm when folded and only 4.3mm when unfolded, making it one of the slimmest foldables on the market.

Under the hood, the X Fold 5 is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset — the same processor found in its predecessor, the Vivo X Fold 3. While not the latest "Elite" version, it still delivers high-level performance for daily tasks and demanding applications.
Pro-Grade Camera Setup with Sony Sensors
Vivo equips the device with a 50MP Sony IMX921 main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens with autofocus, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera (Sony IMX882) offering 3x optical zoom. These lenses work together to capture detailed photos across various shooting conditions.
Massive Battery with Fast and Wireless Charging
One of the standout features is the 6,000mAh battery — one of the largest in any foldable smartphone. It supports 90W wired fast charging and 30W wireless charging. Vivo claims the battery can last up to 20 hours of general use and around 10 hours with GPS active.
Industry-Leading Water and Dust Resistance

The Vivo X Fold 5 is the first foldable smartphone to offer IP5X dust resistance and IPX8/IPX9/IPX9+ water resistance ratings. It can operate under extreme conditions, including temperatures as low as -20°C, making it highly durable for adventurous users.
Cross-Platform Apple Compatibility
What truly sets the X Fold 5 apart is its full compatibility with Apple devices. Vivo introduces a new system that allows the phone to sync and transfer calls, files, and notifications with Apple Watch, AirPods, and even remotely control a Mac. This is the first Android smartphone to offer a native-level Apple ecosystem experience.
Vivo hasn't released technical details about how this seamless cross-platform integration works, but it’s a major selling point for users who mix Android and Apple devices.
