Vivo X Fold 3 Pro was unveiled in China in March. Now, Vivo is reportedly gearing up to release the foldable phone in India. The Chinese tech brand is yet to confirm a timeframe, but a new report reveals that it will go official next month. The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. It features an 8.03-inch AMOLED inner screen with up to 120Hz refresh rate. It has a Zeiss-branded triple rear camera setup and features up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage.

MySmartPrice, citing industry sources, reports that Vivo X Fold 3 Pro will be launched in India in 'early June'. If this leak turns out to be true, it will become the first Vivo foldable to reach global markets.

Vivo's previous foldable smartphones like Vivo Fold 2 and Fold+ have been confined to its homeland. The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro would compete with the likes of Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 5, OnePlus Open and Tecno Phantom V Fold in India.
