Vivo S17

Overview

Reviewed by Priyanka Singh · Senior Consumer-Tech Editor

The Vivo S17 is Vivo's take on a value-focused smartphone, built around processor of Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G Plus, ram of 8 GB, storage of 256 GB.. For daily driving, calls, social apps and photos it should hold up well. On the other side, power users should weigh the chipset and battery against heavier alternatives. Below you'll find the full specifications, live prices across stores, our editor's verdict, and a quality-checked refurbished alternative that can get you the same specs for noticeably less. If you value getting more for your money, the refurbished route is worth a serious look before buying new.
