Vivo Product Manager Han Boxiao has confirmed that the Vivo X Fold 6 will pack a massive 7,000mAh Blue Ocean battery across all variants. The foldable is also said to be the industry’s first smartphone to feature fifth-generation silicon-anode battery technology, complemented by Vivo’s third-generation semi-solid-state battery technology for improved efficiency and endurance.

According to Boxiao, the Blue Ocean battery system has been optimised at multiple levels, helping the foldable deliver up to 9.8 hours of endurance in heavy-load Atomic Workbench scenarios. Vivo claims this represents a 30 per cent improvement in battery life.

The company also showcased the phone’s performance in extreme conditions. The Vivo X Fold 6 reportedly continued operating at temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius. Another demonstration showed the foldable being used underwater. The device carries IPX8 and IPX9 ratings and is claimed to withstand powerful water pressure. Vivo has also equipped it with a lightweight hinge designed to maintain stable folding and unfolding over extended use.

Connectivity appears to be another major focus area. Vivo says the Vivo X Fold 6 features its upgraded Global Signal Amplification System 3.0, supported by a proprietary 1+4 communication chipset architecture. This setup includes one dedicated signal amplification chip and four Wi-Fi enhancement chips aimed at improving reception in challenging environments.

The company even demonstrated a voice call during a skydive from an altitude of 4,000 metres, highlighting the phone’s ability to search for and maintain optimal network connections. Vivo claims the upgraded communication system is designed to deliver reliable connectivity in high-speed trains, lifts, highways and other difficult coverage areas.

Previously, the brand confirmed that the device will feature an 8.02-inch foldable OLED inner display with up to 5,000 nits of brightness, the Dimensity 9500 Super Edition chipset, and a triple rear camera setup comprising a 200-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. it will be the company’s first foldable to support a telephoto extender attachment. 

It will be available in 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB configurations, along with Blue Cave, Salt Lake, Polar Night, and Black Gold Edition color options. The device is expected to launch on June 26 in China, with its global debut likely to follow in July.

Vivo T5 Lite 5G tipped to pack Dimensity 6300, 6.74-inch 120Hz HD+ LCD display, IP65 ingress protection

16 June 2026 at 10:25

Vivo looks like it’s getting ready to launch the T5 Lite 5G, which is shaping up to be a solid daily driver focused on good battery life, smooth scrolling, and reliable performance for everyday use.

According to leaks from XpertPick, the phone will feature a big 6.74-inch HD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,200 nits brightness. That should make scrolling feel smooth and keep the screen visible even in brighter outdoor conditions.

Inside, it’s powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300 chipset, a decent 5G processor that should handle normal apps, light gaming, and multitasking without issues. You’ll have a few memory/storage options: 4GB+128GB, 6GB+128GB, and 6GB+256GB. The phone is reasonably slim at 8.39mm thick and weighs around 209g, which isn’t bad for a large-battery device.

One of the biggest highlights is the 6,500mAh battery, an upgrade over the 6,000mAh unit in last year’s T4 Lite, paired with 44W fast charging. That combo should easily give you all-day (or even multi-day) usage for typical tasks. On the back there’s a 50MP main camera, and up front an 8MP selfie camera. It also comes with IP65 dust and water resistance.

Design-wise, it’ll be available in two nice colors: Twilight Shadow and Ocean Blue. It keeps things simple and practical rather than flashy.

Overall, the T5 Lite 5G seems like a smart pick for students, first-time 5G buyers, or anyone who values long battery life and smooth display over premium features. Vivo’s T series has done well by focusing on real value, and this one tries to stand out with its high-refresh screen and massive battery in a segment where Redmi and Realme are also fighting hard.

We should see official pricing and full details soon as Vivo prepares to roll it out in international markets.

Both inner and outer screens use the latest generation of luminescent materials. The inner screen uses Samsung M14 luminescent material, which Vivo says offers higher peak brightness and lower power consumption. 

The X Fold 6 is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9500 Super Edition. Vivo says the chip has been in the works for nearly two years and is specifically designed for foldable devices. The NPU performance is reportedly 111% higher than the previous generation, while power consumption is reduced by 56%. 

The device will launch with OriginOS 6 Fold and an upgraded version of Atomic Workbench, Vivo’s multi-app productivity feature for foldable displays.

Vivo will announce the pricing and full availability details at the June 26 launch event. Stay tuned to Gizmochina for coverage.
