Now that the official launch date of the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro is out, it will be exciting to see what Vivo has in store for Indian consumers.

The Indian variant is expected to have specifications similar to its global counterpart. Several leaks and rumours have already hinted at the phone's key features.
The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro will be available for purchase through e-commerce site Flipkart, Vivo India's online store, and offline retail channels. In China, the phone is priced at 9,999 yuan, which roughly translates into Rs 1.17 lakh. The device is expected to be priced under Rs 1.5 lakh in India.
