While rumors suggested that the group behind Vivo was going to abandon the foldable format, the brand is back in force with a particularly impressive smartphone: the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro.

This newcomer to the foldable smartphone market is positioned as a serious competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, and for good reason: it has undeniable advantages, particularly in terms of photography.

A giant photo sensor

The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro stands out from the foldable competition thanks to its sensor 1/1.3 inch OV50H, a relatively huge size for a foldable smartphone. This sensor equips the main 50-megapixel camera, with an F/1.65 aperture.

But that’s not all: the main camera and the periscope telephoto lens are optically stabilized. The OV64B 64 megapixel telephoto lens, macro compatible, offers a maximum zoom of 30x. Finally, the 50-megapixel ISOCELL JN1 ultra-wide angle with F/2.0 aperture completes this striking trio. Thanks to the Vivo V3 ISP and the Zeiss T* coating, Vivo promises interesting performance.

A large battery and ultra-fast charging

Despite its featherweight of 236 grams, for a foldable smartphone, the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro includes a 5,700 mAh battery, an impressive capacity. But that’s not all: this battery can be charged at a maximum power of 100 watts via cable, and 50 watts wirelessly.

The Vivo X Fold3 Pro also has the advantage of being the first foldable smartphone to be equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the latest high-end chip from Qualcomm. Coupled with compatibility with Wi-Fi 7, it is also 5G obviously.

A slim and elegant design

With a thickness of only 5.2 mm when unfolded, the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro is particularly thin. Even folded, its thickness does not exceed 11.2 mm, a real feat when we consider the substantial battery it carries.

On the screen side, the Vivo X Fold3 Pro does not disappoint either. The main OLED screen is 8.03 inches, with a definition of 2480 by 2200 pixels, a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a maximum brightness of 4,500 nits. As for the secondary screen, it displays a diagonal of 6.53 inches, with a definition of 2748 × 1172 pixels and a refresh rate also of 120 Hz.
