Vivo S1 price in India has been dropped by Rs. 1,000. As a result of the latest price cut, the Vivo phone is available for purchase in the country at Rs. 16,990. The Vivo S1 was launched last year as a global variant of the smartphone that originally arrived in China with a pop-up selfie camera. It has a triple rear camera setup and is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P65 SoC. The Vivo S1 also comes in three configurations, with up to 128GB of onboard storage.

Vivo S1 price in India

The Vivo S1 price in India has been slashed from Rs. 17,990 to Rs. 16,990 for the base 4GB RAM + 128GB storage variant, as per the listing on the Vivo India E-Store. The price cut is applicable only to the starting model, and not on the other variants. This means the 6GB RAM + 64GB storage variant of the Vivo S1 is still priced at Rs. 18,990, while its 6GB RAM + 128GB storage option continues to cost you Rs. 19,990.

Alongside the official listing, the price cut is visible on online marketplaces including Flipkart. The availability of the phone is currently limited due to the lockdown restrictions in the country. Customers in the Green and Orange zones will be able to purchase the handset from online stores, while it would be available through an offline store in some Red zones.
