Interestingly, Samsung is set to launch its Galaxy Note 10 on the same date during an Unpacked event that will take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The S series launch date has been confirmed just days after the company had released a teaser of the same on its YouTube channel and other social media platforms.

This would be Vivo's second smartphone in the country in a gap of one month with Vivo Z1Pro launched on July 3.
