Despite rumors swirling around that vivo and Oppo might bow out of the foldables game, it looks like both companies are sticking around and will keep churning out new foldable smartphones in the coming days. And guess what? A fresh leak just dropped, seemingly spilling the beans on the launch date for vivo’s next-generation book-style foldable.
According to Gizmochina (via GSMArena), a Weibo user shared a promotional poster that mentions the vivo X Fold 3 series, not just hinting at the timeframe but also dropping an exact date and time. So, if the intel holds up, vivo's X Fold 3 series will be making its grand entrance on March 26.
The mention of the X Fold 3 series adds weight to previous speculations about the possibility of both a standard and pro variant of the foldable phones.
The poster also gives us a glimpse of the upcoming device, showcasing a slim profile and a tall exterior display. On the back panel, there's a circular island housing three ZEISS-branded camera lenses and an LED flash unit. The X Fold 3 series is presented in a sleek White color option.
Rumor has it that the Vivo X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro are set to dazzle with a 6.53-inch cover display and an 8.03-inch inner foldable screen, both boasting OLED panels for vibrant visuals. What is more, both phones are said to pack an in-screen fingerprint scanner for seamless security. Under the hood, they are expected to house the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage.

In terms of software, the Vivo X Fold 3 series is expected to ship with OriginOS 4 straight out of the box. OriginOS 4 is a custom Android 14 skin designed for vivo smartphones in China.
Both foldable smartphones are expected to debut initially only in China. However, they could hit other regions shortly after. So, for those eagerly anticipating their arrival, stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available.
