Vivo X Fold 5 is the first foldable phone that’s water, dust, and drop resistant

Vivo has officially kicked off the teaser campaign for the X Fold 5 in China. And once again, the brand is doubling down on an ultra-slim design for its next foldable. When unfolded, the phone is even thinner than the iPhone 16 Pro.

But slimness isn’t the only headline here.

Today, Vivo confirmed another key detail of the device. The X Fold 5 will be the first foldable in the industry with triple-proof protection—that’s water, dust, and drop resistance.

It is rated IP5X for dust resistance. Last year’s model completely lacked a dustproof rating, but with the X Fold 5, the company is offering the highest level of dust protection in the industry.

On the waterproof front, the phone is IPX8 rated. It can reportedly withstand immersion in up to 3 meters of water, higher than the 1.5 meters claimed by Samsung for the Z Fold 6.

Additionally, the foldable carries an IPX9 rating for protection against high-pressure water jets, and even boasts an IPX9+ rating for underwater folding. Vivo claims the foldable can be opened and closed 1,000 times at a depth of 1 meter underwater.

Vivo X Fold 5 Specifications

As for the specs, it is expected to feature a 6.53-inch LTPO outer display and a massive 8.03-inch 2K+ AMOLED inner screen, both with 120Hz refresh rates. Powering the foldable is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, paired with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

Keeping everything running will be a 6,000mAh battery with support for 90W wired and 30W wireless charging. On the camera front, both the cover and inner screens are said to be equipped with 32-megapixel selfie shooters. 

The rear will have a Zeiss-tuned triple-lens system including a 50MP Sony IMX921 main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide, and a 50MP periscope lens offering 3x optical zoom.
