Vivo had unveiled a new sub-brand named iQOO that will focus mainly on premium smartphone business. The phones under iQOO sub-brand are likely to cost more than Rs. 50000. Now a Chinese leakster has shared the renders of the unannounced iQOO foldable phone which could be the first smartphone from iQOO.
South Korean brand Samsung is likely to announce its first foldable phone on February 20 and it might be called as Galaxy Winner. Unlike the expected fold-in design as some manufacturers such as Samsung, the foldable phone from iQOO will fold out, keeping the screens on the outside. So, when folded, it will serve as a smartphone.
The leaked image shows the iQOO foldable phone with an edge-to-edge display. However, for now, there is no official confirmation on the existence of a foldable phone from Vivo’s sub-brand iQOO. According to the tipster, it could be priced above Rs.70,000.
Recently, Vivo had launched Vivo APEX 2019 with a unique design and top-end specs. The device comes with an in-display fingerprint scanner which has a scanning area that covers the whole screen. In other words, no matter where you put your finger on the screen, the Vivo APEX 2019 unlocks. The APEX 2019 doesn’t have any ports or buttons and it uses full-screen sound technology that uses the screen of the phone as a speaker and the earpiece.
The highlighting features of the Vivo APEX 2019 include a 6.39-inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 855, support for 5G via eSIM, liquid-cooled plate, massive 12GB RAM and up to 512GB of storage.
