Where can I buy the Vivo X Flip foldable phone and what is its price?
The years when Samsung had a comfortable
spot in the foldable segment are over! Since the last year, we saw the Chinese
brands coming with full force to compete. Back in the last month, the Korean
firm’s hegemony in the global markets started to get disrupted. The Oppo Find
N2 Flip reached the global market to compete with the Galaxy Z Flip4, and the
Honor Magic Vs came to threaten the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4. Now, there is a new
Vivo X Flip foldable device coming to compete in the hectic “flip foldable
segment”.
While there are just a few devices like
the Galaxy Z Fold4 competing in the global markets, the situation is different
with the Flip series. Samsung has to face Motorola and Oppo, and soon Vivo will
be joining this trend. The Chinese brand made its entrance in the foldable
segment with the Vivo X Fold. A few months later, it brought the Vivo X Fold+
with a better CPU and much better cameras. In fact, the Vivo X Fold+ had one of
the most impressive camera setups in a foldable device. Now, the company aims
to do the same with its first flip foldable phone, the Vivo X Flip.
VIVO
X FLIP LEAKED SPECIFICATIONS AND DETAILS
A new set of leaks come straight from the
tipster Digital Chat Station. He brings interesting details about the new phone
set to compete with the Galaxy Z Flip4. According to him, the Vivo X Flip will
pack the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. Yes, it will stick with the last
year’s flagship CPU. We assume that Vivo will leave the SD8 Gen 2 for a possible
Vivo X Fold2. Moving on, the Vivo X Flip will have 12 GB of RAM and 128 GB of
Internal Storage. We assume that there will be more storage options, after all,
128GB is few for a flagship nowadays. According to leaked drawings, the phone
will bring a large cover display and a dual camera island above it.
THE
DEVICE IS COMING SOON
According to reports, the Vivo X Flip will
hit China pretty soon. The teasers may start to appear in the next week.
Considering Vivo’s last year’s schedule, we can see a new round of foldable
phones in April. Unlike the Vivo X Fold series, the Vivo X Flip will likely hit
the global markets. As we’ve said before, the company also plans to launch the
Vivo X Fold2. That one will be the new flagship foldable for the year 2023. It
will bring significant improvements like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. We also expect
a powerful camera setup. We are curious to see if there will also be a new Vivo
X Note joining the two foldable phones.
