First renders of Vivo iQOO's foldable smartphone emerge revealing outward fold

A few days back Vivo announced its new smartphone sub-brand called iQOO and we are as clueless as you on how to pronounce it. This new brand is being speculated to sell premium smartphones. As per a  report in Playfuldroid, iQOO’s first device might be the trendsetter of this season — a foldable smartphone. Images of the what iQOO might be working on have surfaced online on Weibo. These images look like the concept renders of the new company’s foldable smartphone.

The phone seems to open like a notebook, with the fold being in the outward direction. [caption id=“attachment_6092191” align=“alignnone” width=“1280”] iQOO foldable smartphone.

Don’t get excited as there is no official news by iQOO yet on the existence of the foldable smartphone.
