Vivo X500 Series Will Get a New Red Color
Vivo has confirmed through its official Vivo India X account that the X500 series will be available in three color options in India. One of the highlights is a new Red finish.
Interestingly, this color was not offered with the Vivo X500 series when the phones were introduced in China. The Red option was also not available in several other markets, including Europe.
The addition of this color gives Indian buyers another design option when the new series goes on sale.
