Going with the design, Vivo has used an aviation-grade self-developed FS54 material to make the X Fold 2 lightweight and durable. So, the foldable is just 13mm thick when folded and 6-6.7mm when unfolded while the weight is around 280g. The company claims 400,000 folding tests for the hinge which now comes with an upgraded water drop diameter of 5.0mm.
However, like the first-gen X Fold, there are no hints of ingress protection this time as well. The phone is available in three color options: China Red, Azure Blue, and String Shadow Black.
Up front, there is an 8.03″ E6 AMOLED 2K res main display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1800 nits of peak brightness. The cover display is a 6.53″ E6 2K res AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1600 nits of peak brightness. Both displays also house an in-display fingerprint scanner for biometric security.

The X Fold 2 is powered by the latest flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 which is based on a 4nm fabrication process. This flagship SoC contains an octa-core CPU with one Cortex-X3 (@3.2 GHz), two Cortex-A715 (@2.8 GHz), two Cortex-A710 (@2.8 GHz), and three Cortex-A510 (@2.0 GHz).
