According to the statistics released by CINNO Research, in the second quarter of 2022, the sales volume of folding screen mobile phones in China market reached 587,000 units, a substantial increase of 132.4% year-on-year. In the first half of the year, the cumulative sales volume reached 6.5438+0.3 million units, exceeding the achievement of110.6 million units in 2026. In the context of the overall decline of the mobile phone market this year,
No, just now vivo released its own new folding screen product-vivo XFold+,which once again hit the high-end mobile phone market. Careful friends should find that this suffix has a "+",which is actually an upgraded version of vivo X Fold, which has a good improvement in screen hinge, chip performance and system experience. What about the actual performance? Not much to say. Let's experience it.
There is not much change in appearance. The lens module continues the design of Fiona Fang Riling, which is in line with the design concept of "the sky is round and the place is round" in traditional culture. The main difference lies in the addition of the "Huaxia Red" color scheme which represents the profound heritage of Chinese civilization. The new color scheme not only looks deeper and more elegant, but also adopts the plain leather back shell embossed with lychee pattern, which has a relatively rough surface, a more grainy feel and a delicate texture, and the frame has changed from matte to bright color. Surprisingly, vivo X Fold+ has almost no change in thickness and weight compared with the previous generation while improving the fast charge and expanding the battery.
On the screen side, vivo X Fold+ adopts the current relatively mainstream folding screen design, and is equipped with a 6.53-inch external screen with a resolution of 2520* 1080, which is more suitable for the current mainstream machine experience in terms of both size and proportion, and the ratio of 2 1:9 is also better in audio-visual entertainment. After expansion, it is 8 inches, with a scale of 4:3.55 and a high resolution of 2 160* 19 16. Every day, there is a display effect and experience close to the tablet Mini, especially in business office scenes such as reading stocks, reading emails, editing documents, etc., browsing and operation will be more comfortable and relaxed.
The internal and external screens are made of Samsung E5 material, which supports 120Hz high brush. The adaptive refresh rate of LTPO on the inner screen is 1- 120Hz, and vivo X Fold+ adopts a consistent calibration scheme. In the factory mode, the color of the dual-screen display is almost the same as that of the display, which means that there is almost no difference between the visual experience of the internal and external screens, so there is no internal screen.
On the hinge of the core part of the screen, vivo rethought and improved the hinge design, and created a space-class worry-free hinge for vivo X Fold+. Aviation grade, as the name implies, uses a lot of aviation materials in the hinge part, so that the comprehensive strength and corrosion resistance of the hinge can be guaranteed. Worry-free is that vivo X Fold+ has passed TUV worry-free folding certification. After a series of performance tests, such as basic physical performance, folding screen durability, life scenes, extreme environment, bending and so on, key parameters such as crease, touch, display and opening force still have excellent performance. After practical experience, the opening and closing of vivo X Fold+ will be more compact and smooth, and the damping change of the hinge can be obviously felt. No matter whether it is unfolded or closed, the fuselage has no sense of looseness and shaking, and multi-angle hovering is more solid.
In terms of performance, vivo X Fold+ is equipped with customized SPU security chip of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ and adopts TSMC 4nm process. Compared with the previous generation, the performance has been improved to a certain extent. Ann Bunny's measured running score is 109 W+, mainly because the heating situation will be much better in daily use and the power consumption will be lower. At the same time, it is equipped with overclocking version UFS 3. 1 and enhanced version LPDDR5, which makes the experience of data transmission in mobile office smoother. The exclusive customized SPU security processing unit also provides financial-grade system security hardware capabilities for business offices.
In addition to the optimization of performance and power consumption, the communication capability of dual 5G cards of vivo X Fold+ has also been enhanced. For example, when we play a game, we encounter data similar to the main card. When the secondary card suddenly comes to the scene of dual card concurrency, the dual cards can be concurrent smoothly, avoiding network interruption, missed calls and missed information.
In terms of image, vivo X Fold+ is equipped with Zeiss full-focus four shots, 50 million GN5 outsole main shot, 48 million 1 14 super wide-angle main shot,120,000 portrait lens and 60 times periscope telephoto, with V 1 image chip and Zeiss T* coating.
In addition to the regular video gameplay, vivo X Fold+ also derives a rich shooting gameplay with the help of a foldable screen. When taking pictures of others, the photographer can observe the framing effect in real time through the external screen preview, and adjust the posture and expression in time to make the shooting easier and more natural.
Of course, we can also use the external screen as a viewfinder and call a higher-definition rear camera for self-portrait. The external screen self-portrait supports beauty adaptation and can reuse the front beauty parameters. When taking a group photo, it also has practical functions such as automatic recognition, eye correction, gesture/palm shutter and so on.
Using the multi-angle hovering form of vivo X Fold+, we can record our daily life from more perspectives. When we press it down, we can start shooting at a low angle, and the semi-folding can be used as a waist-flat viewfinder. When folded to a certain angle, the screen will be divided into two parts, one is the shooting preview interface, and the other is the movie preview and function keys. As the folding angle changes, the screen will automatically adjust the contents of the upper and lower screens.
Then let's take a look at the daily practical experience of vivo X Fold+. The internal and external screens of Vivo X Fold+ are equipped with 3D ultrasonic dual-screen fingerprints, which have fast unlocking speed and high accuracy. The fingerprints only need to be input once, and both screens can be unlocked, and it can be easily and quickly unlocked when the mobile phone is unlocked by wet hands. Compared with the side fingerprints commonly used in folding screens on the market, the under-screen ultrasonic fingerprint experience of vivo X Fold+ will be better.
In video call, movie watching, fitness and other scenes, we can turn on the hover mode of vivo X Fold+, display the video content on the upper screen, and control the playback progress, volume, brightness and other operations on the lower screen, so as to easily free our hands and operate efficiently.
In the display settings, a locked external screen display has also been added. After the multi-angle hovering mode locks the external screen, it can unlock various use postures, such as desk calendar mode, tent mode, screen mode and so on. After locking, the inner screen and the outer screen can be displayed at the same time, or the outer screen can be used alone.
Left: before optimization, right: after optimization.
For the adaptation of third-party applications, vivo X Fold+ automatically learns and obtains the original layout information of applications by developing an adaptive UI engine, and optimizes the large-screen display based on the system framework. Subsequent third-party applications do not need active adaptation, but can be automatically adapted through vivo adaptive framework scheme. Compared with the default full-screen display, the optimized full-screen display displays more and the layout is more reasonable.
In terms of battery life, the vivo X Fold+ battery is extended to 4730mAh, and the charging is upgraded from 66W flash charging to 80W flash charging, and it is also equipped with 50W wireless flash charging. In the 80W wired flashover test, it is charged 1% in 5 minutes and 100% in 34 minutes.
Thanks to the power consumption reduction of Xiaolong 8+ and the blessing of large battery, vivo X Fold+ has experienced 5 hours of heavy endurance test, and still has 15% remaining power, which has a good endurance improvement compared with the previous generation and can easily meet the needs of moderate and heavy use in one day.
One hour for games, one hour for miles, one hour for Tik Tok, one hour for videos and one hour for reading novels.
Finally, to sum up, the configuration of the previous generation of vivo X Fold was already at the ceiling level in the folding screen, so it is expected that the change of vivo X Fold+ will not be great this time. In fact, it is equivalent to the iterative small change of vivo X Fold. With the new color scheme and the new Snapdragon 8+ chip, the daily heating and battery life experience will be much better. Larger battery & fast charge with higher power, but the thickness and weight have not changed, and the dosage has not increased. Originally, I thought the previous generation of vivo X Fold configuration was full. I didn't expect that the generation was stronger than the generation, and the big screen adaptation that was lacking before was also made up this time. It can be described as a strong stream in the folding screen mobile phone war.
Some friends may worry that backstab has bought an old user of the previous generation. The price of vivo X Fold+ has increased this time, but the price of vivo X Fold is still the original price, which is quite friendly to old users. It is more cost-effective to chase new friends and replace them. Well, this period of experience is over. Do you think this vivo X Fold+ is worth grabbing?
