    – It will feature an upgraded Dimensity 9500 chip optimized for foldables and AI performance.
    – The device uses a new Samsung M14 AMOLED panel, though crease comparison to rivals like the Oppo Find N6 remains unclear.
    – It is positioned as the likely camera leader among foldables, even against Apple’s anticipated foldable iPhone.


    The Vivo X Fold 6 will be officially unveiled on June 26, 2026, as we learned a few hours ago, but many details about what is likely to be the most exciting foldable phone of the year have already been revealed by official sources. For example, fans of the Zeiss camera on the Vivo X300 will be able to use a 200mm tele-extender to transform the 3.7x telephoto lens into an 8.8x optical zoom for the first time on a foldable device. Also officially confirmed is an upgraded version of the Dimensity 9500 camera, optimized for foldable devices and AI performance.

    New Promotional Materials and Competitor Comparisons

    Today, June 17, numerous new and high-quality promotional images were released on Weibo, along with the video below, which summarizes the key advantages of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra expected on July 22. These include superior multitasking capabilities and its use as a PC replacement. Regarding the display, Vivo is using a new Samsung M14 AMOLED panel. However, it is currently unclear whether it will be as crease-free as, for example, the Oppo Find N6 or the upcoming wide-version of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, which is expected to use particularly thick UTG glass.

    Display and Camera Dominance

    Apple’s foldable iPhone, potentially dubbed the iPhone Ultra, will capture everyone’s attention in the fall, but at least in the camera deparment, the Vivo X Fold 6 is likely to remain the frontrunner. Its Zeiss-branded telephoto system, combined with the new Dimensity chipset, promises exceptional image quality. Many enthusiasts are already anticipating how the device will handle low-light scenarios, given the upgraded AI processing capabilities. The crease on the M14 panel remains a point of curiosity, as Vivo has not yet confirmed whether they are employing the same ultra-thin glass technology as their rivals. Weibo (1, 2)
