With less than three years of entering the Nepal market, vivo has carved a niche for designing and developing the latest smartphone technology. Since its entrance in 2017, vivo in Nepal has launched many feature-rich variants in its vast and innovative portfolio of three different series – V, S, and Y, designed to fit the Nepali youth’s evolving lifestyle needs and budget preferences.
In a short period, vivo has grown from just being a budding brand in the market to become one of the top smartphone brands in Nepal.

Global Firsts
vivo has established a rich legacy of ‘industry-first’ innovations for itself. vivo has dominated the world by spreading its technological innovation and reaching out to more than 30 markets worldwide.

From being the first to put a dedicated Hi-Fi quality audio chip in a smartphone, to breaking records of the world’s thinnest smartphone, vivo is committed to pursuing the newest experiences in technology.
vivo has always been lauded for its innovative technology since the beginning of the brand. vivo was the first brand to introduce the world’s first 25MP front camera, which made vivo stand out since it was only the beginning of new smartphones’ innovations.
Additionally, in the Nepali Market vivo was the first brand to introduce in-display fingerprint scanner and pop up cameras. This bears testimony for the fact that vivo is a global leader in terms of innovations and presenting the world with leading-edge technology.
Showcasing Technology Excellence
Over the years, vivo continues to have an abiding focus on Nepal and, as a result, has introduced its top-notch product ranges that have received phenomenal responses from the youth community in the country.

Another super successful model launched by vivo before the V17 and V15 was V9 (launched in March 2018), which was praised for its powerful processor and innovative technology.
In the Y series, the Y90 launched on June 2019 in Nepal, and it was met with massive success in sporting a waterdrop-style notch, a 6.22-inch HD+ display, and an Helio A22 SoC in a budget. The Y series has been widely acclaimed for its pocket-friendly pricing and feature-rich handsets.

Some of the key aspects that were loved by the audience were the Rear Triple Camera, sleek designs, and strong performance.
Reinforcing Local Commitment
With localization and innovation at its heart, vivo believes that Nepal is a strategically important market and, therefore, continues to upscale its presence in the local mobile market to embrace consumer demands.
With smartphone penetration crossing 60% mark in Nepal, vivo currently enjoys a market share of 12.3% in Nepal as per IDC’s latest Globally Mobile Phone Tracker, Q1 2020. vivo products are now available nationally with a robust offline network of 1200+ retail stores.
Nepal saw an increase of 7.6% smartphone users due to the increased availability of affordable phones. Previously, smartphone penetration in Nepal used to grows by 10 percent each year. As the smartphone market seems saturated, tentatively, it increased by 5% only in a year.
In alignment with the Nepal Government’s efforts on ‘Make in Nepal‘, vivo is working closely with vivo employees and retailers, guiding, mentoring, and empowering them during these unprecedented times.
Gearing Up For 5G Future
vivo believes that 5G will effectively expedite the feature phone-to-smartphone migration process in the Nepal market, especially in the entry-level segment.
We are primed and ready to fully leverage the 5G opportunity and are presently working on building the elements that will be the key to the future growth of 5G embedded smartphones, which we have termed as ‘Intelligent Phones’.
As a leading global technology company, vivo has always been part of the evolution and standardization of telecommunications technology.

As a communications industry leader, vivo is one of the pioneers amongst mobile terminal companies to spearhead 5G technology R & D and standardization.
Innovation, being a trendsetter, and having the best-in-class products are the three mantras by which vivo carries out all its activities and developments.
Globally, vivo sub-brand iQOO launched iQOO Pro 5G, making itself one of the first brands to launch 5G ready smartphone. With this, vivo aims to provide multi-device, multi-application offerings and aims to delight its customers by delivering even more vibrant and connected experience.
