The vivo Y series phone that debuted in Singapore in September has arrived in the Philippines.
The trendy-looking vivo Y17s is now available for purchase at local physical stores and online, via its website as well as e-commerce platforms like Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop. You can get it in either Glitter Purple or Forest Green color variant for P6,999 (roughly $123 converted).
vivo Philippines says the Y17s is designed “to redefine the way you capture, store, and cherish your special moments.” From that alone, you’d know that the main highlight here is the 50-megapixel dual rear camera that features Night Algorithm to help you take images even in not-so-ideal lighting conditions.

Selfies? An 8-megapixel camera takes care of that, complete with Aura Screen Light. It’s housed in a waterdrop-style notch at the top center of a 6.56-inch HD+ display with a refresh rate of 60Hz. vivo urges you to capture more of those memories, because the smartphone has a generous internal storage of 128GB that can still be expanded up to 1TB via a microSD card.
A maximum of 6GB dynamic RAM, 5,000mAh battery with support for 15-watt charging, IP54 water and dust resistance, Android 13-based Funtouch OS 13, and MediaTek Helio G85 chipset round out the newly launched vivo Y17s’ specs.
