Price in Nepal
Vivo V17 Pro phone was already available in the market but in limited quantity before. Now, with the launch, we can expect the phone to be available across all retail outlets.
The price of the Vivo V17 Pro phone in Nepal comes at Rs 52,490.
Regarding the above price of Vivo V17 Pro in Nepal, we think its a little let down side to have the mid-ranger processor whereas other vendors are offering high end processor on that price point.
If you count dual pop-up selfie camera and the quad rear camera for a phone, then you can opt in to buy this phone. But for a phone with a price above 50 k, you would definitely want to have a higher-end processor, which you can find in Redmi K20 Pro, but with a triple rear camera. Other Quad rear camera phones available in the market are Oppo Reno2 F, Huawei Nova 5T which you can check your self for the option.
