Vivo X Fold 3 Pro First Impressions: New Foldable King?
View quick summary
The Vivo X Fold 3 is here, and I've got my hands on it! The sleek and lightweight design, super bright and vivid display, big battery as well as a commendable rear camera setup had me all sorts of impressed. However, if I'm to nitpick, the FuntouchOS is an obvious bummer. But, the OS is pretty neat and nicely optimized with the X Fold 3 Pro, leaving not much room for complaints. However, compared to the OneUI on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and OxygenOS on the OnePlus Open, it obviously does feel barebones and bland. Keeping that aside alongside a not well-tuned selfie shooter, this is the finest foldable we've seen in recent years.
