• A 50MP Ultra Wide-Angle Camera with a 120° field of view for landscapes, group shots, and architecture.

AI-powered enhancements further refine images at high zoom levels, delivering professional-grade results across many scenarios.

Power That Keeps Up with You

Fueled by an equivalent 6000 mAh BlueVolt Battery, the largest in any vivo foldable phone, the X Fold5 delivers exceptional endurance for daily use. Built on semi-solid state battery technology, it ensures efficient power use and long-term reliability.

With support for 80W Dual-Cell FlashCharge and 40W Wireless FlashCharge, users can quickly get back to their activities, minimizing wait time.

Designed for Seamless Productivity
