About vivo

vivo sells phones across the range and is one of the largest manufacturers in China, India and South East Asia. Its flagship X series is built around photography, with the optics developed in a long-running partnership with Zeiss, and it is the line the company puts its imaging engineering into. Below that sit the volume ranges - Y and V - which are where most of the units go, and alongside them iQOO, a sub-brand aimed at performance and gaming rather than cameras. The company was founded on 22 May 2009 and is headquartered in Dongguan, Guangdong. Its founders are given as Shen Wei and Duan Yongping. It is widely reported to belong to the same group as OPPO, under the BBK Electronics name; the two operate as distinct businesses with their own leadership, and the exact corporate relationship above them is not publicly established.
