The upcoming Vivo foldable phone seems to come with noticeable screen bezels and a punch-hole camera cutout on the right. Moreover, there are standard volume and power buttons on the right and left sides, respectively. As per previous reports, the smartphone is expected to feature an external screen as well. The tipster suggests that the foldable phone can “remotely control Mac.” Another Weibo user also confirmed the authenticity of the leaked images and backed up Vivo’s remote Mac control feature.
