Vivo S1 Pro Price in the Philippines is PHP 15,999 : Pre-Order Period and Installment Details

Vivo Mobile Philippines' all-new midrange Android smartphone for stylish and trendy young consumers is now officially available for pre-order and will remain so until November 30, 2019.

The gorgeous and powerful Vivo S1 Pro was formally launched in the country via an exclusive event for bloggers, members of the media, and dealers held at the Grand Ballroom of Conrad Hotel Manila last November 20, 2019.

Ms. Hazel Bascon, Vice President of Vivo Mobile Philippines, announced the official suggested retail price of Vivo S1 Pro, which is PHP 15,999. I think its a good price considering everything that this smartphone offers -- especially in terms of imaging capabilities, internal hardware, display, and design.

For those who aren't inclined to pay for the handset in full upon purchase, Ms. Bascon shared that Vivo S1 Pro will be available for 6 or 12 months installments through major credit cards as well as 6, 9, or 12 months installments via Home Credit.

After the price announcement, Vivo Mobile Philippines' executives graced the stage and offered a toast to all guests for the successful launch of their newest device.

Earlier that evening, Mr. Colwin Tanhehco, Vivo Mobile Philippines' Brand Marketing Supervisor,  gave a keynote presentation about the amazing features and very competitive technical specifications of the Vivo S1 Pro, which will surely delight young and active mobile consumers.

Discussing the design of the handset, Colwin shared that Vivo S1 Pro lets users flaunt their style and showcase a sophisticated side of themselves with its sleek body and eye-catching Knight Black and Fancy Sky colorways.

As earlier revealed on TechPinas, Vivo S1 Pro sports a large 6.38-inch FullHD+ SuperAMOLED display with 90% screen to body ratio that delivers an enjoyable viewing experience while playing games, watching TV series, viewing vlogs, or reading blogs. This display also incorporates an in-display fingerprint scanner so you won't have to flip the handset to unlock it with your finger while it's placed on a table.

One of the highlights of the Vivo S1 Pro is its powerful Diamond-Shaped Quad Rear Camera Module that gives the user maximum flexibility when snapping images.

This is great for young, budding mobile photographers who see their handset as a point-and-shoot camera substitute that's useful for capturing moments in their daily lives.

This stellar imaging set-up is made up of these shooters:

1. 48 MegaPixels, f/1.8 Aperture, 1/2.25", 0.8µm, Phase Detection AutoFocus

The best camera of the bunch in terms of sensor size, resolution, and wideness of aperture. This can be relied for day to day point and shoot photography in various lighting conditions.

2. 8 MegaPixels, f/2.2, 13mm, Ultra-Wide, 1/4", 1.12µm

Has an ultra-wide angle lens that's great for landscape, architectural, and group photography.

3. 2 MegaPixels, f/2.4, 1/5", 1.75µm, Dedicated Macro Camera

Great for capturing the minutest details on a larger subject or for taking images of really small objects.

4. 2 MegaPixels, f/2.4, 1/5", 1.75µm, Depth Sensor

Vivo Mobile calls this the Bokeh Camera as it enables beautiful background blur on portrait shots or even in food photography.

And for young consumers who still love taking selfies and groufies with their friends, this device has a 32 MegaPixel f/2.0 front-facing camera above the screen, which is powered by Vivo's own AI Beauty software innovation.

Inside its high gloss shell that has iridescent gleam, Vivo S1 Pro runs its Funtouch OS 9.2 customized Android 9.0 Pie operating system with a 11nm Octa Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor - incorporating an Adreno 610 GPU - that's great for gaming because of its energy-efficiency. This processor is complemented by 8GB of RAM for smooth multitasking and 128GB of expandable storage. For me this is a remarkable set of innards given the price of the phone.

Powered by a sizable 4,500 mAh Li-Po battery that can be charged from 0% to 100% in less than two hours - thanks to Vivo's 18W Dual Engine Fast Charging Technology, Vivo S1 Pro is easily capable of delivering a whole day of uptime even for power users.

Following Colwin's discussion of the handset's main selling points and key features, Vivo Mobile Philippines presented a style show for the audience featuring stylish Filipino Youth using the Vivo S1 Pro.

The fashion show gave the crowd a glimpse of how Vivo S1 Pro can be part of the daily lives of today's young and fashion-forward Pinoy millennials and Gen-Zers. You can watch the entire style presentation via the exclusive TechPinas video below.
