vivo unveiled the Snapdragon
712-powered Z1x earlier this month and now it's following it up with the vivo
V17 Pro - a cool looking upper mid-ranger with a dual pop-up selfie camera. The V17 Pro is built around a
6.44" FHD+ 20:9 Super AMOLED screen, which vivo calls Ultra FullView
Display. The screen comes with a fingerprint reader underneath and has no
notch, because like we said, the phone has a dual selfie camera mounted on an
elevating mechanism rising from the top of the frame.
The dual camera setup comprises of a 32MP main and
8MP ultrawide angle units, with the latter having an FOV of 105 degrees. The
pop-up module also houses an earpiece and a flash, which vivo calls Selfie
Softlight, to help you take better selfies in low light. Besides, there's a
feature dubbed Night Selfie that combines multiple frames for better results at
night.
Moving on to the back, we get a quad camera setup
aligned vertically in the center. It's a combination of a 48MP main (Sony
IMX582), 13MP telephoto (2x zoom), 8MP ultrawide angle, and 2MP depth sensor
modules. The 8MP unit can also be used to capture macro shots of objects from
as close as 2.5cm.
On the inside the vivo V17 Pro has a Snapdragon 675
SoC with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. It helps it run Android Pie-based Funtouch
OS 9.1 that comes with features like Multi-Turbo and Game Mode. The vivo V17 Pro is offered in
Crystal Black and Crystal Sky colors and packs a 4,100 mAh battery with
Dual-Engine Fast Charging (18W) support.
The V17 Pro is priced at INR 29,990 (US$ 420/€ 380) and
will go on sale in India from September 27 through vivo India's official site,
Amazon.in, Flipkart, and offline stores across the country. It will also arrive
in other markets at a later date.
