Vivo launched its latest mid segment smartphone, the Vivo V17 and V17 Pro in the Indian market on Monday. The highlight of this new device is the camera section, with a quad camera in the rear placed in the shape of letter ‘L’ in the Vivo V17 and a popup selfie camera in the Vivo V17 Pro.
The basic specifications are as follows:
The Vivo V17 has a display of 6.44-inch OLED screen with a punch hole to house the 32MP front selfie camera. It’s a full HD+ resolution. The processor under the hood is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675AIE. This places the device right in the mid-segment. The phone has 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. It can be expanded to 256GB. The operating system is the Android Pie, version 9.0, with the Funtouch 9.2 UI riding on it.
As mentioned, the camera section in the rear has 4 shooters, with the primary sensor being 48MP in resolution. The remaining three comprise an 8MP wide-angle camera, a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP macro lens.
The 4,500mAh battery powers the device with 18W Dual-Engine fast charging support. The USB-C type socket and the 3,5mm jack are included. There is an under-display fingerprint sensor.
