Vivo has scheduled an event in India on May 29 to launch a new smartphone without mentioning the name of the device. The launch invite has a big ‘X’ in it so it will be an ‘X series’ smartphone and is most likely be the Vivo X21 that was launched in China back in March this year with an in-display fingerprint sensor version and a standard version.
It is not yet clear if Vivo is planning to launch both the standard version with rear-mounted fingerprint sensor or the top-end version Vivo X21 with under-display fingerprint sensor in India. However, a previous rumor suggests that Vivo might launch only Vivo X21 with an in-display fingerprint scanner in India and it will be priced at Rs. 34,990.
