HAMBURG, Germany -- Chinese smartphone maker Vivo is attempting to snag European market share from beleaguered compatriot Huawei Technologies, but it will be arriving later than other Chinese rivals with a similar game plan.
Vivo, which like Huawei is based in Shenzhen, is initially targeting Germany, Spain, France, the U.K., Italy and Poland with four models ranging in price from 149 euros ($176.64) to 799 euros.
