Vivo X Fold5 is too thin and light: it can’t even fit a full C-port
Vivo officially announced that the vivo X Fold5 new product launch conference will be held at 19:00 on June 25. The poster uses two pieces of white paper to indicate the selling point of this generation, “extremely light and thin”.
In the preheating video released by vivo product manager Han Boxiao, it can be seen that the vivo X Fold5 and vivo X Fold3 (the world’s lightest large folding screen mobile phone in 2024) were placed on both ends of the scale for weight comparison.
The result is amazing. The vivo X Fold3 placed on the right tray sinks quickly, which intuitively shows that the vivo X Fold5 is lighter. It is known that the weight of vivo X Fold3 is 219g, and it is expected that the vivo X Fold5 will be much lighter than 219g. The result of lightweight design is clear at a glance.
In terms of size, this generation of vivo X Fold5 is even more shocking: the folded thickness is about 9.33 mm, almost the same as the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and the unfolded thickness is only 4.3 mm, close to the feel of a straight-screen phone. At this size, the Type-C interface has to adopt a special special-shaped design to optimize the thickness, and netizens jokingly called it “so thin that it can be blown away by a fan.”

Not only is the vivo X Fold5 thin and light, it also has a 6000mAh blue ocean battery with 90w fast charging and 30w wireless charging, Zeiss triple-camera with 50 million pixel periscope telephoto, and it is the world’s first large folding phone that supports three-proof (waterproof, dustproof, and antifreeze). It performs well in all aspects and is strong in all aspects.
In addition, this generation of folding screen is closely connected with the Apple ecosystem. It has the first Android-based Apple Watch cross-ecosystem link, AirPods seamless experience, and the industry’s strongest Mac interconnection… It can be said that this generation of vivo X Fold 5 is a good match for office workers.

Editor’s comments:
The birth of X Fold5 marks the arrival of the maturity of foldable screen technology. It no longer wins by a single parameter, but through the integrated innovation of “lightweight, three-proof, full-focal-length imaging, and cross-ecology”, it solves the core pain points that hinder popularization, forces competitors to rethink the value logic of foldable screens, and accelerates the process of the industry from niche taste to mass popularization.
