It appears that the Vivo X Fold 4 or possibly the Vivo X Fold 5 is set to make waves with a substantial 6,365 mAh battery, according to the latest TENAA certification. This is exciting news, especially for those eagerly anticipating the successor to the Vivo X Fold 3. The buzz around these next-generation foldables is that, despite being slimmer, they are poised to deliver even more power, notably with a significant boost in battery capacity.
This year, Chinese smartphone manufacturers are leading the charge by enhancing their flagship models with larger batteries. Vivo, for instance, took the initiative with its Vivo X200 series, ensuring a substantial power package of up to 6,000 mAh, all while maintaining sleek and compact designs. Not far behind, Oppo is gearing up to adopt this trend with its Find X8 and Find X8 Pro smartphones expected to feature 6,000 mAh batteries as the new standard. Meanwhile, Xiaomi plans to follow this battery-boosting path with the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro series. However, it seems Samsung may continue to lag in this trend as speculations indicate the Galaxy S25 Ultra might still sport its 5,000 mAh battery for yet another year.
The trend of slimmer foldables with larger batteries is becoming more prominent, particularly with Chinese manufacturers. The new-age foldables from this year, such as the Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 and the Honor Magic V3, reflect this change by offering more power in lighter packages. As we look towards early 2025, it’s becoming clear that companies like Vivo intend to continue this momentum, as showcased by the recent certification of their upcoming Vivo X Fold models.
Hints regarding the Vivo X Fold 4 series were circulating from well-known leakers who suggested battery sizes exceeding 6,000 mAh. This speculation was confirmed when TENAA provided an initial certification revealing a 6,365 mAh battery size. Model number V2429A aligns with one variant of the Vivo X Fold 3 successor, showcasing a leap from the current 5,500 mAh and 5,700 mAh batteries available via import.
In summary, the upcoming Vivo X Fold series not only promises technological advancements in folding smartphone design but also a significant improvement in battery capacity. As these devices are expected to roll out in early 2025, they are set to attract attention in the market, offering blend of power and portability.
