The vivo Y12s is the latest smartphone from the company to launch in the country. The vivo Y12s is available in Kenya starting from Ksh 13,000. The phone was launched in the country last week and joins a few other smartphones from the company launched in Kenya this year.
Vivo has not been very aggressive with its devices and new players such as realme seem to be doing all the right things to expand their brands to consumers.
According to the Brand Manager Mr. James Irungu, the brand has been focusing on offering mid-range devices at an affordable price as a strategy to penetrate the highly competitive market.
“The vivo Y12s is a smartphone that offers its users the ultimate user experience while being very pocket friendly for the festive season. The integrity that has gone into making this phone is high engineering yet the company has seen it wise to offer the phone at a cost-effective price for the Kenyan market,” he stated.
