Vivo X Fold2: A featherweight book foldable with a full ZEISS flagship camera.
SpecEagle Editorial·Apr 2023·$1,300·Score 85/100
X Fold2 paired a genuine ZEISS periscope camera with 120 W wired and 50 W wireless charging — solving the two things book foldables usually compromise. The 278 g weight and IPX4 rating are the cost, and it never left China officially, but on camera and charging it out-specced every Western fold of its day.
