Vivo U1 Buy online:
You can buy the Vivo under 10000 from here. The phone can be purchased from Vivo’s online store, but shipping will begin in a week on February 26th, 2019. Though, if you are from India, we would suggest not to go for this at this moment. Vivo already has better offerings in India under 10,000 and you won’t have to go through the Chinese ROM issue. As you might have guessed, Vivo U1 will come with a Chinese ROM with all the texts in Chinese. Global ROMs ain’t available yet. You might have to then flash with another Vivo ROM.
