vivo X Flip appears in the live photo

The X Fold2 will be introduced by vivo this month, and we might see the X Flip clamshell alongside it. The foldable with a horizontal hinge has been rumored for several months, and today we spotted the device in a live photo courtesy of reliable tipster Digital Chat Station.

The new phone will have a circular camera island with the Zeiss logo and a landscape display, taking up more than half of the front cover.

Chances are we have two cameras on the circular island. There is a visible diamond pattern and the purple color matches the most popular option in the Samsung Z Flip range and the Oppo Find N2 Flip.

The image isn’t as detailed as we would have liked, and we can’t fully confirm if the hinge folds flat or if there is a slight gap. What we know from previous listings and benchmarks is that the panel inside will have 1080p resolution, while inside will be a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset with 12GB of RAM.
