The Chinese smartphone manufacturing company Vivo released the X Fold 2, its second-generation foldable, earlier this year. Now, rumors about the handset’s successor, i.e., X Fold 3 Pro, are surfacing online. Although the launch timeline of the foldable isn’t clear yet, there’s a good chance that Vivo will release the X Fold 3 Pro early next year. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming foldable.

Vivo X Fold 3 Pro’s Expected Specifications

According to Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station, The device will feature Qualcomm’s latest chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (4nm). Apart from this, the smartphone should have a 2K foldable screen that supports a 120Hz refresh rate. The inner screen will also sport LTPO technology for a variable refresh rate. Last but not least, both the cover display and the main display are said to have an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.

Regarding optics, the Fold X 3 Pro should come with a triple rear camera setup, with a 50MP Sony LYT900 primary sensor with optical image stabilization, a 100mm periscope lens that provides up to four times optical zoom, and an ultrawide sensor.

The upcoming foldable could have a slightly slimmer profile than its predecessor. While the X Fold 3 Pro could weigh under 250 grams, the X Fold 2 weighs 279 grams, which makes it slightly heavier to carry.
