Samsung unveiled the Galaxy M31s in India in late July 2020. On the other hand, vivo launched the vivo V20 SE in the country in November 202o. Now, months later after their release, these two smartphones have received a permanent price cut of ₹1000 on all the variants for the offline channels.

Samsung Galaxy M31s Price Cut India

The South Korean tech giant debuted the Galaxy M31s in India ahead of the Amazon Prime Day sale event. The handset was introduced for ₹19,499 (6GB + 128GB) and ₹21,499 (8GB + 128GB) respectively. But the offline price was ₹1,000 higher. Anyway, it was slashed to match the online pricing in late September.

With the new ₹1,000 price cut, this phone can be now bought for either ₹18,499 or ₹20,499 from offline stores in India. Interestingly, although 91Mobiles says this price drop is exclusive to offline channels, the device is being sold at this very same price tag on Amazon India. However, for the base variant, buyers will need to apply the included coupon.

Samsung Galaxy M31s launched with One UI Core 2.1 based on Android 10. It is currently receiving the Android 11-based One UI Core 3.0 update.

vivo V20 SE Price Cut India

Unlike the former smartphone, the vivo V20 SE was released in a single 8GB + 128GB variant, priced at ₹20,990. As its price has been now dropped by ₹1,000, it can be purchased for only ₹19,990.

But it is worth noting that this price drop is only applicable across offline channels. The handset is still listed at its launch price on online retailers like Flipkart and Amazon India.

The vivo V20 SE hit the shelves with Funtouch OS 11 based on Android 10. The company is now seeding the Android 11 update to this device.

Chinese smartphone maker vivo launched the vivo V20 SE in early November. The handset debuted with Funtouch OS 10 based on Android 10. Now, a little over three months later, the phone has started receiving Android 11-based Funtouch OS 11 update.

According to a report by PiunikaWeb, vivo has started rolling out the Android 11 update for vivo V20 SE. The update comes with build number PD2038CF_EX_A_1.70.6 for the Indian variant of the device.

The OTA update weighs 3.59GB and therefore, make sure to have enough space left on your unit, in addition to an appropriate data plan. As of now, it is not known if the update is being released under greyscale testing.

In case you do not know, vivo’s greyscale testing is similar to Xiaomi’s Stable Beta releases. In this phase, the update is only seeded out to a select few users to test the stability in public. If this is the case with vivo V20 SE Funtouch OS 11 update, then the update will take some time to reach every user.

That said, with vivo V20 SE receiving the Android 11 update, all the three models in the vivo V20 series now run the latest version of Android with Funtouch OS on top of it. For those unaware, vivo debuted with vivo V20 with the newest software out of the box but the vivo V20 Pro 5G was updated soon after its release.

Additionally, the new update is also being rolled out to the older vivo V19 and the expensive vivo X50. The much older vivo V17, vivo V17 Pro, vivo V15 Pro, and vivo S1 will start getting the update starting March, as per schedule.

A couple of weeks back, Vivo India CEO revealed that Vivo V20 Pro 5G will launch in November in the country. However, a new report by 91Mobiles now provides information on the new launch date and pricing for the device.

Vivo V20 Pro 5G new Launch Date, Price

Quoting its Industry sources, 91Mobiles’ exclusive report says that Vivo V20 Pro 5G will skip the November launch date. Instead, it will debut in December in the country. Further, the report says that the smartphone will be priced below ₹30,000($405). This is quite low compared to the THB 14,999($488) price in Thailand.

To compare, its sibling Vivo V20 and V20 SE are already priced at ₹24,990($337), and ₹20,990($283) respectively in India. Accordingly, the report also quotes its sources saying that Vivo V20 Pro 5G will be priced similar to the high-end variant of the OnePlus Nord 5G. This suggests that the device could retail for ₹29,999($404) in India. Still, let’s wait for Vivo to confirm it officially.

Vivo V20 Pro 5G Specifications

Vivo V20 Pro 5G features a 6.44-inch AMOLED display with a FHD+ resolution. It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G 5G SoC and paired with 8GB RAM, 128GB storage.  For camera, it has a dual-selfie setup at the front with 44MP main, and 8MP ultra-wide sensors.

UP NEXT: Vivo to double its local sourcing in India by 2021

The post Vivo V20 Pro will reportedly launch in December and be priced below ₹30,000($405) in India appeared first on Gizmochina.

Chinese smartphone manufacturer, Vivo, is set to increase its local sourcing to about 40 percent for its production capacity in India by next year. The move will be a significant jump from its current sourcing that amounts to about 15 percent.

According to Nipun Marya, Director-Brand Strategy, Vivo India, “continuing our commitment to Make in India, Vivo will manufacture all the V20 SE devices at the Greater Noida facility that employs nearly 10,000. The company has an annual capacity to manufacture nearly 33 million mobile phones. All the phones sold in India are made in India.” At the moment, Vivo accounts for 28 percent of the market share by sales volumes in India, which also makes it the largest brand in the country in mainline retail.

Thus, the move to increase local sourcing would only seem more logical and beneficial for the company in the longer run. The senior executive further added that the state of Tamil Nadu, which accounts for 7 percent of overall smartphone sales in India, is one of its key markets in the region and also contributes about 8 percent of the company’s total revenue.

The announcement arrived with the launch of the Vivo V20 SE in the state, where the company has over 4,000 retailers and 25 exclusive stores. Vivo is expecting to grow further in the market and is already “receiving great response from customers for our customer-centric innovations in design and camera.”
