Vivo is set to introduce several new smartphones this month, including a foldable device. The Vivo V80 and Vivo S2 FE have been officially confirmed to launch on October 6, alongside the anticipated Vivo X Fold 6. This foldable phone was previously released in China several months ago and is now making its way to the international market, including India.

Recent reports have revealed important information, including pricing, as the launch date approaches. The Vivo X Fold 6 will offer a selection of colours, with expectations that global consumers may only access two of the four colour options available in China: Blue and Black.

Leaked Pricing for Vivo Devices

An Italian online retailer, Etpo, has reportedly disclosed the estimated price for the Vivo X Fold 6, listing it at €2,038.90, which includes VAT, or approximately Rs 2,21,616. Excluding VAT, the price is €1,671.23, translating to around Rs 1,81,674. The Vivo V80 is also in the spotlight, with tipster Abhishek Yadav suggesting on the social platform X that its starting price in India may be Rs 63,000.

The leaked details imply that the Vivo V80 will have three storage options, with the base model featuring 8GB RAM and 128GB storage likely priced at Rs 63,000. The 8GB RAM with 256GB storage could retail for Rs 70,000, while the top-tier model with 8GB RAM and 512GB storage may cost Rs 80,000. No official confirmation from Vivo regarding these prices has been made yet.

The pricing information indicates a competitive positioning within the smartphone market and reflects a strategy to attract consumers with different budget ranges. As the launch date approaches, anticipation grows among potential buyers.

Specifications of Vivo X Fold 6

The Vivo X Fold 6, although already launched in China, has garnered attention for its high-end specifications, which may also be featured in its global version. The device is expected to sport an 8.02-inch AMOLED display featuring a resolution of 2504 x 2312 pixels. Past reports noted that the Chinese variant has impressive brightness capabilities of up to 5,000 nits and a hinge durability rated for 600,000 folds.

Rumours suggest that the phone will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 Super Edition chipset, customised specifically for foldable devices. The leaked information mentions an octa-core processor clocking up to 4.21GHz, although exact details about the chipset remain unspecified.

In terms of camera technology, the Vivo X Fold 6 is anticipated to include a 200-megapixel primary camera alongside a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera and a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens. For selfies, it could feature a 20-megapixel front camera, incorporating Zeiss optics along with sophisticated zoom capabilities.

The battery specifications suggest that the device may also incorporate a substantial 6,900mAh battery with support for 80W wired charging. This is slightly less than the 7,000mAh battery present in the Chinese variant, which indicates that the figures mentioned could reflect rated rather than typical capacities.

Details on Vivo V80 Specifications

The Vivo V80 is set to distinguish itself with a 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED display, boasting a refresh rate of 144Hz and exceptional brightness of up to 5,000 nits. Additionally, the smartphone will feature a Zeiss-branded camera system, which includes a 50-megapixel primary camera and a 50-megapixel Night Telephoto camera, complemented by a wide-angle lens.

Noteworthy is the 50-megapixel Group Selfie camera, which is equipped with a 92-degree field of view and autofocus technology. This model will also purportedly be the first in the V-Series to operate on Android 17, featuring OriginOS 7.

Moreover, the Vivo V80 is expected to possess a significant 7,200mAh battery compatible with 90W FlashCharge technology, enhancing the overall appeal of the device as it gears up for its impending launch.
