Vivo X Fold 5 Display and Battery Life

 Let's start with the cover display.  It's a good size at 6.53 inches, and the 21:9 aspect ratio makes it ideal for watching movies. Such a statement would have been laughable not that long ago when foldable cover displays were so small or distorted. At first glance, it almost seems like vivo is reusing cover displays from the X Fold3 generation.

Even with the odd resolution of 1172 x 2748 pixels, the size and aspect ratio are identical. However, the cover display on the X Fold5 has been upgraded. Most notably, while the refresh rate remains at 120Hz, the display now utilizes LTPO technology, just like the internal panel.

As a result, refresh rate adjustments become significantly more dynamic and granular, potentially saving more power. Vivo claims that the cover display can reach an impressive peak brightness of 5,500 nits, which is about 1,000 nits more than the previous generation.

By maxing out the slider during our usual standardized testing, we were able to achieve 627 nits of brightness. When there is a bright light source, this goes up to 1877 nits. That is definitely sufficient for outdoor comfort. The inside display could very well be borrowed from the X Fold3.

It has a diagonal size of 8.03 inches, a resolution of 2200 x 2480 pixels, a 120Hz refresh rate with LTPO technology, and a maximum brightness rating of 4,500 nits. HDR10+ and Dolby Vision certifications are also on the inside display. The phone says that the decoder can play HDR10, HDR10+, HLG, and Dolby Vision formats. It also has the highest possible Widevine L1 DRM certification.

On both displays, the behavior of the refresh rate is very similar. You get very dynamic refresh rate switching behavior and refresh rates as low as 1Hz when there is no movement on the screen. In the settings, you can select from Smart Switch, Standard, or High refresh rates.

Despite having slightly different "caps," all of these appear to share the same dynamic refresh rate switching logic. Both High and Smart Switch can reach 120 Hz, but High seems to be more preferred. Regarding the actual switching logic, the phone uses a few "preset" refresh rates, but thanks to LTPO technology, it does so very dynamically, and there are a lot of "presets." We've seen idle at 1 Hz, as previously stated. 30Hz, 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 90Hz, and 120Hz have also been observed. The X Fold5 has managed to fit a massive 6,000 mAh battery inside its slim and lightweight body. This battery is even bigger than the 5,700 mAh one found in the X Fold3 Pro from last year, which was already a top seller in this category.

The X Fold5 now holds the record for the world's largest foldable battery, which is not surprising. Silicon cathode battery technology offers increasingly impressive density, and the X Fold5 appears to be at the cutting edge.

It utilizes second-generation semi-solid battery technology and various enhancements to the cathode, anode, and battery chemistry.  These cutting-edge materials have a number of effects, one of which is significantly improved discharge performance in cold conditions. The X Fold5 did not manage to surpass the X Fold3 Pro in terms of battery life in our standard battery tests, despite having a slightly larger battery.

Although the two are pretty much the same, the foldable phone still has a very impressive Active Use Score of 13:21 hours. The vivo X Fold5 is officially rated for 80W fast charging.  Our review unit shipped with a 90W vivo FlashCharge charger in the box.  That may not be the case in all markets, so make sure to check with your retailer.

It's also important to note that vivo continues to use a Type-A to Type-C cable. Thankfully, it does not appear to be a proprietary cable with additional pins, but rather a regular one. The X Fold5 is very quick to charge. The charge level is approximately 38% after fifteen minutes on the charger. Thirty minutes gets you around 70% and a full charge requires around 46 minutes.  Not bad at all.
