Remember Samsung’s ‘Never Mind’ offer, launched two months ago? Vivo is now rolling out a similar offer, called FullView Forever offer, which is essentially a one-time screen replacement offer for Rs 990. While Samsung covered a bunch of smartphones under its offer, Vivo’s smartphone is exclusively for its flagship Vivo V7+.
The catch, you ask? The offer is valid only if a Vivo V7+ is bought and activated between the period of November 1 to December 31, 2017. Also, the offer can be availed starting from the seventh day after the Vivo V7+ is activated until a period of 12 months. In case the smartphone is purchased but not activated within the offer period, it won’t be applicable for the offer. Under terms and conditions, Vivo has stated that the offer shall not be applicable on demo units and bulk sales. Also, the smartphone’s screen will not be replaced if it’s scratched, or damaged due to liquid.
The ‘FullView Forever’ offer is applicable pan India and users can repair their smartphone’s damaged or broken screen at all authorized Vivo service centers, with just a payment of Rs 990. However, as the name suggests, this is only applicable once, and cannot be availed after that. Also, all damages may not be covered under the offer; company’s service centre technicians will check and decide if the damaged smartphone falls under the terms of the offer.
Vivo’s V7+ is the company’s first smartphone to feature a FullView 18:9 display. The smartphone flaunts a 5.99-inch HD (1440×720 pixels) IPS display with 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. Under the hood, the Vivo V7+ comes with a Snapdragon 450 octa-core 64-bit SoC paired with 4GB of RAM. There is 64GB internal storage that can be expanded up to 256GB using a microSD card.
For photography, the smartphone boasts a 24-megapixel front camera of f/2.0 aperture; and soft flash support. At the back is a 16-megapixel snapper with f/2.0 aperture, and LED flash.
Other features include a fingerprint sensor, and a 3,225mAh battery. Connectivity options include dual-SIM card slots (hybrid setup), 4G LTE support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, FM Radio, and USB OTG. On the software front, the V7+ runs on Android 7.1 Nougat-based Funtouch OS 3.2.
