The upcoming foldable Vivo has also received 3C certification in China. This certificate confirms that the device supports fast charging, i.e. 80W fast wired charging.

Note that Vivo X Fold S will be officially launched in China soon. We still don't know if this device will make it to global markets. Chinese OEMs have been cautious about releasing sophisticated devices outside of China. This is one of the reasons for Samsung's absolute dominance in the global foldable phone market.
A number of Chinese OEMs are planning to release their flagship devices globally, and we expect Vivo to be among them.
