A Chinese tipster has provided the first key details about the Vivo X Fold 6, including its potential release in the second quarter of 2026.
The Vivo X Fold 5 debuted in June. According to Smart Pikachu, the brand is targeting the same quarter next year for the arrival of its successor, the X Fold 6.
Several sections of the foldable are expected to be improved, including the chip, which is allegedly going to be a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. Like other foldables, the phone will continue to use a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for user verification, but it is rumored to come with a 200MP camera this time. It is unknown, however, whether it will be a main or telephoto unit.
