Smart phone brand Vivo continues to strengthens top-tier position in the mobile phone industry as they recently closed a 4 billion dollar partnership with Qualcomm, another tech industry giant.
Even just as a young global smartphone brand, Vivo has already earned a respectable position as among the leading smartphone brands in the Philippines and has been making waves since it first hit the Philippine market in March 29, 2016.
Impressive enough, in just a span of less than two years, Vivo has found a well-deserved spot in a highly-competitive global arena of mobile smart phones both locally and abroad because of its innovative line of phones that are easy on the pocket.
