The best Vivo smartphones in 2022

Vivo is a brand that almost no one knows in Russia, however, every person in his life used the equipment produced by VVK. Many will ask, what does VVK have to do with it, if we are talking about completely different companies? The thing is that Vivo is a subsidiary of a familiar company. In addition, VVK also has subsidiaries such as Oppo and OnePlus.

Vivo in Western countries is a completely unknown company that no one has even heard of, but in the East, and in particular in China, it is in the TOP-5 largest suppliers of computer equipment for 2017. Russian consumers can also freely buy Vivo products on the company's website. In addition, it is assumed that smartphones from this company can be bought in a larger assortment, since Vivo became the official partner of Russia in football in 2018. So the time has come to get acquainted with the products of this company in more detail, and in particular with the best offers from the entire catalog.

Current Vivo lines for 2022

Vivo smartphones were created in three lines:

• X - belongs to the premium group of gadgets, have a wide list of functions performed. These smartphones are very expensive;
• Y - this line of smartphones has features that are specifically designed for the budget group of gadgets. The price is lower, and accordingly the devices are more affordable;
• V - devices designed for the middle class, while they have a large number of functions and are sold at a low price.
