This afternoon Vivo's new vertical folding screen smartphone was presented, the Live X Flip; let's find out more.
Vivo X Flip: the new flip phone with the largest external screen in the category is official
Let's start with the design of the Vivo X Flip in the version "Purple Color Matching” which brings a cover with purple smooth leather and diamond pattern to the industry for the first time, which fully reproduces the texture of small luxury brand bags. It will therefore be like having a mini Chanel brand bag in your hands. Furthermore, the smartphone has a back cover with what the brand calls "magic mirror" (magic mirror) which is actually nothing more than a display. We obviously expect this screen to be used for the external camera just above and thus effectively become a mirror.
We also note that the Vivo X Flip also has the largest and most functional horizontal external screen in the industry, which can meet the daily operating needs of the majority of users. So for example it can show information in open, show notifications and we will probably find several other useful and/or fun features. In addition, there is no need to distinguish between left and right hands when operating with one hand, reducing the impact of screen position on the user's touch experience.
As for the photographic sector, the camera module of the new phone consists of a main camera with a bionic spectrum sensor 866-megapixel Sony IMX50V, with a size of 1/1,56 inch, a single pixel size of 1 micron and a large focal aperture of f/1,75. Then we find one 12 megapixel wide-angle camera and focal aperture of f/2,2. While in front we have a 32 megapixel camera, with a 1/2,8-inch sensor and a focal aperture of f/2,45. It is worth noting that the 32-megapixel high-definition front lens of the Vivo X Flip makes the upper half of the screen look like a mirror, while a variety of makeup effects are offered on the lower half of the screen.
In terms of performance, the Vivo X Flip is equipped with the processor 8st generation Snapdragon XNUMX+, adopting advanced MEP technology with 4nm manufacturing process, based on ARM v9 instruction set and Kryo780 Cortex core, together with Adreno 730 GPU and Snapdragon X5 65G modem. Compared to the previous generation Snapdragon 8 chip, CPU and GPU performance increased by 10%.
From the point of view of autonomy, the Vivo X Flip is equipped with a battery from 4400 mAh and supports the 44W flash charging. The hardware-level charging IC can monitor the battery current in real time and limit the current within the expected value. The safety factor is higher than that of the software solution. In addition, when the remaining power of the mobile phone is 10%, the external screen can reach a standby time of 10,28 hours, which is very useful in case of emergency.
In terms of screen, the new smartphone is equipped with one 6,74 inch internal screen which supports a 120H refresh ratez, while lo external screen is 3,0 inches and supports a refresh rate of 60Hz. In addition, the internal screen supports 60/120Hz two-speed dimming and LTPO adaptive dynamic refresh, PWM high-frequency (1920Hz) dimming, an adaptive color temperature, coverage 100 %P3. We then find an ultra-thin SCHOTT UTG glass (internal screen) and a Corning GG7 glass (external screen).
The Vivo X Flip is also a tough smartphone as it has passed 500000 bending of TUV Rheinland certification without worry. After 500000folds, the device screen is still flat as new, and key parameters such as folds, touch, display, and opening and closing force work excellently.
Other specifications include cross-axis graphene heat dissipation system, Z-axis linear motor, dual-frequency GPS, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, etc.
The Vivo X Flip has a starting price of 5999 yuan (795 euros) for the version with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal memory.
