Vivo S17e spotted on Google Play Supported devices list, launch is near
Today, we have new reports confirming that Vivo is planning to release another smartphone from the S17 series called the Vivo S17e. As we previously reported exclusively, Vivo is planning to launch three smartphones in the S17 series: the S17(V2283A), S17 Pro(V2284A), and S17e(V2285A). The Tech Outlook has exclusively spotted the Vivo S17e with model number V2285A on the Google Play Supported devices list. Since it has appeared on the supported devices list we may soon see it listed in the Google Play Console which may reveal some additional information about this smartphone. Although the listing doesn’t provide any information about the smartphone, it does suggest that the launch is near.
The specification we know so far about Vivo S17e
According to a previous report, the Vivo S17e was spotted on the Geekbench listing with the same model number V2285A, which revealed some key specifications of the smartphone. The listing indicated that the smartphone will be powered by MediaTek Dimensity 7200, which was launched in February. The recently launched Vivo V27 is also equipped with the same processor and is priced at ₹32,999 (Approx. $403.45) in India.
In addition to the processor, we know that the Vivo S17e will come with at least 8GB of RAM and FunTouchOS 13 based on Android 13 out of the box. Rumors suggest that the Vivo S17e will be a repackaged version of the Vivo V27 with some tweaks, and we also believe this to be the case, as both devices are spotted with the same chipset.
So far Vivo hasn’t confirmed any details about this smartphone, nor the launch date officially. Given the progress that this smartphone is making in its certification process, we believe that it may launch in May, possibly in China like every other Vivo smartphone.
