After months of leaks and teases, Vivo has finally unveiled its Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and Vivo X Fold 3 models in China.
The two foldables are the latest offerings from Vivo, which are now available in different configurations of up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. Both models are available in Feather White and Black colorways and sport camera systems based on Zeiss’ technology.
The company also claims that despite being foldables, the series offers the lightest devices in the market. That is specifically true about the Vivo X Fold 3, which only weighs 219 grams, making it one of the lightest book-style foldables available. According to the company, this is all possible through the Carbon fiber hinge applied on the Vivo X Fold 3 series. The brand also claims that the component can last up to 500,000 folds despite being 37% lighter than the earlier hinges.
Both models appear similar in different sections, but as expected, the Pro variant packs more power. Here are the differences between the two:
