Vivo's X Fold 6 Feels Like a Throwback in Design

The Vivo X Fold 6, now launching internationally after its release in China this summer, has drawn comparisons to older foldable phone designs. Its tall and square-ish form factor contrasts with the shorter, wider trends set by recent models from Apple and Samsung like the Z Fold 8 and iPhone Duo. The device features a standard smartphone aspect ratio on its cover display that opens into an almost square panel. Despite feeling outdated in design, the X Fold 6 stands out for its camera capabilities. It includes one of the largest main sensors available in foldables — a 200-megapixel sensor paired with high-quality telephoto and ultrawide lenses. The phone also offers a large battery capacity (6,900mAh) powered by a custom version of MediaTek's Dimensity 9500 chip. Vivo has not yet disclosed pricing or specific international markets for the X Fold 6 ahead of its global launch.
