It has been a couple of weeks since vivo launched its next-gen foldables and we nonetheless haven’t heard something about a world launch. But final week’s poll reveals that if the firm does resolve to go for a huge distribution, there could be a truthful variety of consumers.

There’s the normal share of foldable skepticism, round a quarter of voters in every poll don’t consider that that is the type issue of the future. But it’s gaining traction – simply a few years in the past there have been solely a handful of fashions, now there’s loads of competitors, which may also be seen in the charts.
