Vivo X Fold 3 Display and Battery Life

The vivo X Fold3 Pro is equipped with some mighty fine displays, both on the cover and on the inside. The expansive specsheet has a few highlights, among them the DolbyVision certification and the 4,500nits peak brightness – for both panels.

The main display on the inside has an 8.03-inch diagonal (they could have easily called it an 8-inch, but so be it). The resolution is 2,200×2,480px in a squarish 10.1:9 (1.13:1) aspect, and pixel density works out to 413ppi.

In adaptive brightness mode, the X Fold3 Pro’s inner display proved to be the brightest large foldable panel we’ve measured to date. It’s brighter than industry-leading flat displays too, the company’s own X100 Ultra included.

In manual mode, we recorded a fairly standard brightness of a little under 600nits – the Galaxy Z Fold6 does give you an additional 200nits on the slider if you enable Extra brightness, but the rest of the potential competitors also max out at values in the vivo’s ballpark.

The cover screen stretches 6.53 inches in diagonal and has a fairly standard 21:9 aspect ratio – if we haven’t slammed the Galaxy Z Fold lineup for its overly tall aspects, here’s another opportunity. The resolution here is 1,172x2748px, and pixel density is a little higher than on the foldable panel, at 457ppi.

Just like the X100 Ultra, the X Fold3 Pro uses silicon cathode tech for its battery, which makes its cells more energy dense, helping keep the phone reasonably thin while still offering a large capacity. At 5,700mAh, it’s higher than anything else in the large foldable space, and by quite a wide margin when comparing against some models – the Galaxy Z Fold6, for example, only has a 4,400mAh capacity battery.

In our Active Use testing, the X Fold3 Pro posted excellent results. The overall score is class-leading, and the individual screen-on test numbers are either the best or tied for the best for a handset of this type. Still, the endurance/capacity ratio isn’t quite as high as on some of the others.

The vivo X Fold3 Pro ships with one of the company’s proprietary FlashCharge adapters, rated for up to 120W. The phone itself is only specced to support up to 100W, which is still plenty, we reckon. In our testing, it peaked at around 86W, which is close enough. With the change in chemistry and the significant increase in capacity, we can understand that the X Fold3 Pro doesn’t charge as fast as the X Fold2. Still, the X Fold3 Pro is only marginally slower than the OnePlus Open or the Oppo Find N3, and quicker than other bendy tablets that we’ve tested. Don’t forget that it’s also got by far the largest battery capacity around.
