The catch
Despite being the most affordable variant, the new model still carries a premium price tag.
The X300 FE initially launched in May at Rs 79,999 (~$838) for the 12GB+256GB variant and Rs 89,999 (~$943) for the 12GB+512GB model.
Prices were later revised upward, and the current listings on Flipkart and Vivo's website show the 12GB models at Rs 89,999 and Rs 99,999.
