vivo officially unveiled the X Fold6 in China, marking the company's first foldable smartphone to be powered by a MediaTek chipset. The announcement was covered by YugaTech, a Philippine tech news site. The device represents a shift in vivo's foldable lineup, which previously relied on Qualcomm processors.
The X Fold6 features a sleek book-style folding design, similar to its predecessors, but with improved hinge mechanics and a lighter build. While specific specifications have not been fully detailed, early reports suggest the phone will include a high-refresh-rate inner display and a versatile camera system designed for productivity and media consumption.
