Vivo X Fold 6 Specifications, Features

The Vivo X Fold 6 sports an 8.02-inch 2K+ AMOLED LTPO Samsung M14 foldable display with a 1Hz-120Hz adaptive refresh rate, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, UTG glass protection, and up to 5,000 nits peak brightness. The outer display measures 6.51 inches and uses an AMOLED LTPO BOE panel with Full HD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and Dolby Vision support. Both displays feature TÜV Rheinland Global Eye Protection 3.0 certification and hardware-level 1-nit low-brightness adjustment for improved viewing comfort.

The foldable features a redesigned body with rounded corners and a 2.5D metal frame. It measures just 4.4mm when unfolded and 9.4mm when folded, while weighing between 228g and 235g depending on the colour variant.

The X Fold 6 packs a massive 7,000mAh battery, making it one of the largest batteries on a book-style foldable smartphone. Vivo says it combines fifth-generation silicon-anode technology with third-generation semi-solid-state battery technology for improved energy density and better low-temperature performance. The phone supports 80W wired fast charging, 40W wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging.

For photography, the X Fold 6 features a Zeiss-branded triple rear camera setup powered by Vivo’s V3+ imaging chip. The system includes a 200MP Samsung HPB primary sensor with OIS, a 50MP ultra-wide camera, and a 50MP Sony LYT602 periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and support for a 200mm teleconverter. Selfies and video calls are handled by 20MP front cameras on both the inner and outer displays.

Connectivity options include 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, dual-band GPS, NavIC, and USB Type-C audio. The foldable is rated IP5X for dust resistance and IPX8/IPX9 for water resistance, while Vivo also claims reliable operation in temperatures as low as -20°C.
