vivo unveiled premium earbuds alongside the X Fold6 in China, branding them the TWS 5 Pro. The buds hide a dual‑driver acoustic system: a custom ultra‑miniature balanced armature co‑developed with Knowles and a self‑made dual‑ring dynamic driver in a coaxial layout. Vivo claims the setup delivers a 16 Hz‑60 kHz frequency response. The design fits snugly, with a shell that matches the X Fold6.

Audio performance centers on a custom Hi‑Fi DAC built with Cirrus Logic, offering 113 dB dynamic range and native 96 kHz/24‑bit playback. Lossless streams push up to 4.6 Mbps over Wi‑Fi, while LE Audio and the LC3 codec trim latency to roughly 42 ms, making the buds viable for gaming. ANC uses a four‑mic array with 60 dB cancellation and dedicated profiles for planes, subways and buses.

Battery life hits five hours in Wi‑Fi mode and eleven hours via AAC Bluetooth, totaling fifty hours with the case; a five‑minute charge adds two hours of playback. The TWS 5 Pro also offers IP54 protection, wireless fast charging, touch controls and features—from spatial audio and adaptive sound to AI translation and karaoke return. With resolution audio credentials and connectivity, vivo targets the premium true‑wireless segment.
