It’s sale season for the Philippines’ smartphone market. And Vivo is the latest among several companies that have made their newest releases more affordable than ever before.

Vivo Philippines has announced price cuts of up to P3,000 (around $59) for the Vivo V15 and V15 Pro. The V15 will now retail at P14,999 ($292), from P15,999 ($312) at launch. The Vivo V15 Pro, on the other hand, will have a price tag of P20,999 ($409) instead of the usual P23,999 ($468).

This makes the V15 one of the cheapest phones on the local market with an edge-to-edge screen and a pop-up camera. And the Pro model is now even more compelling after the adjustment. It’s already an attractive device to own, thanks to its mix of powerful internals, satisfying battery life, versatile cameras, and good looks.

The Vivo V15 Pro features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 under the hood, joined by 8GB RAM and a 3,700mAh fast-charging battery backup. The main camera is 48 megapixels and sits on the back alongside an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 5-megapixel depth sensor for better portrait shots. The V15 Pro sports a gradient color design on the back cover. It also gets a notch-less AMOLED screen with an integrated fingerprint sensor.
