The cricket fever is reaching its peak as the IPL 2017, Season 10, is about to begin. To celebrate this eve, Vivo Mobiles has decided to release a limited edition model of its latest selfie smartphone, the Vivo V5 Plus. The company has started sending out the media invites for an event which is scheduled on April 4 in Hyderabad, where it will launch the limited-edition Vivo V5 Plus IPL Edition smartphone. The opening ceremony and the first match of IPL will take place on Wednesday.
To recall, the Vivo V5 Plus smartphone was launched at a price of Rs 27,980 in India in January this year. The handset is available in both offline and online retail stores. The specifications of the limited-edition smartphone are expected to be the same as the original V5 Plus smartphone, however, the outer design language would probably receive changes. Furthermore, the handset is likely to have a few IPL-related apps pre-loaded on it.
The price and availability details about the Vivo V5 Plus IPL Edition will be announced during the event on Tuesday. Considering the similar set of specifications on the limited-edition model, the price will probably resemble with the original smartphone, however, the IPL-connection might add some premium on the price tag.
