Vivo’s next flagship foldable, the Vivo X Fold 6, could be heading for a major internal shake-up.
According to new leaks from a prominent Chinese tipster, the company may abandon its traditional partnership with Qualcomm in favor of a MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset.The move would mark a significant shift for the X Fold series, which has historically relied on Snapdragon processors—including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 found in last year's Vivo X Fold 5.Early reports from tipster Digital Chat Station suggest that the X Fold 6 prototype features a refined look.
The device is expected to sport:Flat display: Moving away from curved edges for a more modern, flat screen with rounded corners.Side-mounted fingerprint scanner: Likely integrated into the power button for quick access.Large circular camera module: Maintaining the bold aesthetic of its predecessors.While the processor change is the biggest surprise, the camera system is seeing a substantial hardware boost.
The leaked specs point to a triple-lens setup that puts it ahead of the current model:Main sensor: A 200MP primary camera.Ultra-wide: A 50MP lens for wide-angle shots.Telephoto: A 50MP periscope lens capable of 3x optical zoom.For comparison, the Vivo X Fold 5 featured three 50MP sensors, making this new 200MP leak a major selling point for photography enthusiasts.To power the high-resolution cameras and large foldable screen, the X Fold 6 is rumored to pack a massive 7,000mAh battery.
