vivo has started the teaser campaign for its upcoming X Fold5, which according to a recent rumor is due to be unveiled on July 10. The phone will boast unprecedented dust and water resistance ratings for a foldable.

We're talking about IP5X dust resistance, which beats Samsung's IP4X, as well as a trio of water resistance ratings: IPX8, IPX9, and IPX9+. IP5X means the phone will not entirely prevent ingress of dust, but "it must not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the safe operation", according to the IP code definitions.

Regarding IPX9+, vivo says you'll be able to fold and unfold the X Fold5 in water 1m deep 1,000 times, which is certainly impressive, even though we're not sure what the use case for that would be in the real world.

Finally, no other foldable so far has received an IPX9 certification, which is all about protection from water jets (IPX8 is about immersion into water).

The X Fold5 is also teased to be the lightest book-style foldable ever, and will be offered in green as you can see from the glimpse in the shot above.

Looks impressive and I'm a sucker for green. Hopefully the marketing team can put in the same effort as the engineering because people in China have overlooked the X. Shares have been single digits. Oppo was on the heels of Huawei, but their ...
