Chinese smartphone maker Vivo launched the new Vivo V17 Pro series on 20 September in New Delhi.
The new Vivo V17 Pro sports a 6.44-inch full HD super AMOLED screen and thanks to the pop-up camera mechanism, maximum space of the front panel is occupied by the functional display. It has a 20:9 aspect ratio and 91.65-percent screen-to-body ratio.
It boasts dual 32MP+8MP pop-up camera and is capable of taking wide-angle shots up to 105-degree, which will come handy to take group selfies.
On the back, it houses a 48MP primary (with Sony IMX586 sensor), 8MP (ultra wide), 13 MP telephoto lens and a 2MP depth sensor. It can take portrait images, macro close up shots, low-light pictures, wide-angle landscape and more.
Vivo V17 Pro runs on Android Pie-based Funtouch 9.1 OS with Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 octa-core processor, 8GB RAM, 128GB storage and a massive 4,100mAh battery, which is more than enough to keep the phone running for a whole day under mixed usage. It also supports 18W fast charging.
The new V17 Pro will be available on Amazon, Flipkart, Vivo e-store and brick-and-mortar retail chains from September 27 onwards for Rs 29,999 in India.
As part of the launch campaign, Vivo V17 Pro consumers are entitled to get free one-time screen replacement provided they buy the device before October 8. There is also 10% cashback for HDFC and ICICI card users.
