So, after several YouTube videos and a leak fest, the Vivo Z1 Pro is finally official in India. And we’ve got to say Vivo has pulled off something really good for the Indian market this time around. That isn’t usually the case as the company falls below the likes of Realme and Redmi in the pecking order when it comes to value-for-money. Not this time. The Vivo Z1 Pro starts at 14,990 ($217) for the base 4GB + 64GB version while the top specced, 6/128GB variant costs as low as Rs 17,990 ($261). Those are phenomenally low prices for a company like Vivo seeing what all they’re offering at that meagre price.
