General Any current Fold 3 users considering the Vivo X Fold?

Seems like the Vivo X Fold is going to give Samsung competition for the Fold 4.

If I thought I could get the Vivo X Fold to work on my US Carrier - I would give it a shot. Perhaps by the time the Fold 4 is introduced, it might be available in the US and that might push me towards it.

Anyone else here considering getting a Vivo X Fold?

I am looking to sell my fold 3 for the vivo x fold. It's really my ideal hardware. The fold 4 isn't going to really drastically change that much. I really don't want a thinner device I want a more usable front display. right now, that's not happening for the Fold 4. I doubt it'll be the ideal for the fold 5 either.

Having said that I am buying it very VERY soon. Also the Vivo X fold works on every US carrier 5g.

Every. Single. One

I would try the Google fold over the Vivo. I doubt VZW would support Vivo phones.

I'm not sure if any software is gonna be as mature as Samsung's. Add to that the pen support is essential to me so probably no. I'm sticking to the Samsung folds for the time being

Nope. The hopefully Pixel Fold interests me more. I also really like the Oppo Find N

Got mine yesterday.... Bootloader cannot be unlocked, no root available, and no XDA forum for the device, despite request for forum submitted a while ago.... Other than that hardware including screens is amazing - way better than my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2. Once forum is created, development starts and we get bootloader unlocked - this will be true king of foldables

Also, if you're like me and don't like white colored charging stands - this looks better and works better than original Vivo 50W wireless charger https://www.giztop.com/xiaomi-mi-100w-wireless-charging-stand.html
It charges the phone ridiculously fast
anyone who says no is kinda being disingenuous or is afraid of change. I have went from Samsung to Oneplus, to Huawei and the Now The VIVO X Fold. Its a great phone.... with one.... flaw that I'm working on removing....
For me no Spen support is a no-no. I had 3 Note devices (3,7/fe,10 lite) and can't go back for a device without some stylus support.

What are Vivo like for track record for software updates? One of the major draws for me for the Fold3 is the 3+ years of updates.

Got a ZFold3 ,and going for the ZFold4 , mainly because of the software/customization/root , SPen support and DEX

But also because of the IPX8, and the side mounted fingerprint ( which I like so much )

That vivo X Fold has a nice hardware, but for me is 70/30 software/hardware TBH

youll probably be able to root the vivo x fold first, unless youre getting a Exynos (Lesser processor version) of the device.
