(Update, October 14: Our review is up! Read Vivo V17 Pro review: 6 cameras, 1 solid all-rounder.)
The Vivo V17 Pro, the successor to the V15 Pro, will be officially announced in India September 20. And if there’s a device that will most likely make it to the Philippines, this is it. After all, the V series has been the company’s hero lineup in the country for quite some time now.
