EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, charging and imaging tech) Motorola is happy to try different things and it's middle model has shifted size and target audience a lot: from 7.9mm thickness 2 versions ago, to 6mm in the last iteration, to now back to standard (7.2mm) thickness. The build remains excellent and includes full protection from dropps and elements. Screen is bright and sharp, camera improved with addition of a tele lenses and PDAF to selfie.

PROs

EDITORIAL: X Fold 3 Pro is only a 3rd generation Vivo foldable but it outperformed foldable competition with battery, camera and hardware. This immersive phone is a great option if you can get it in your market. It is one of the thinnest, lightest and yet top in battery endurance and water protection among foldable. Excellent build and usability, great performance and 24hr+ battery performance on the outer screen. Very bright screens and a great camera setup takes this 2024 phone to a short list of phones to consider.

PROs
great build, good SD 8 Gen 3 with UFS4.0 performance, 24h+ 5700mAh Si-C battery endurance with (0-100%) sub-40min 100W charging, excellent >2000nits Dolby Vision screens (external has long 21:9 ratio), IPx8 water protection, great photos from Zeiss branded OIS 50MP main + OIS 64MP periscope tele + 50MP ultrawide (all PDAF), fast 3.2 USB-C with OTG
CONs
mediocre selfies (tho on a foldable you should use the main camera for selfies), no SDmemory, only 3 years of OS update support, no desktop replacement or video out support (updated Jun 30, 2025)
