Vivo X20 Plus UD – Will It Launch In India?
The TENAA listing has confirmed that the X20 Plus UD will carry similar hardware specifications as the X20 Plus. But it will be sans the fingerprint sensor at the back and X20 UD will slightly differ in terms of dimensions as well.
The chances of Vivo X20 Plus UD coming to India are not good as Vivo hasn’t launched any of its flagship X-series models in India till now. But India is an important market for Vivo and might launch their first flagship X model in the country, since the X20 Plus UD is the first first smartphone in the world with a under-display fingerprint sensor.
What do you think are the chances that Vivo will launch the Vivo X20 Plus UD in India?
