Hot value, cool price: Vodafone launches 2017 range of
4G smartphones
More Kiwis will be able to talk, text and surf up a storm with the launch of Vodafone’s 2017 range of high spec,
affordable smart phones.
Featuring the latest Android Nougat operating system, the Vodafone Smart E8, Vodafone Smart N8 and Vodafone Smart V8
phones are tuned to work optimally with NZ’s leading mobile network - offering customers more speed and reliability.
Vodafone Consumer Director Matt Williams said, “Over 700,000 Vodafone smartphones have already been sold in New Zealand,
which goes to show how well they work for people who just want to own a great smart phone that offers great value.”
The Vodafone Smart V8 has already won a 2017 World iF Design Award for its premium look and feel, underpinned by an
elegant and durable full-metal casing. The combination of the Vodafone Smart V8’s powerful processor and NZ’s leading
mobile network means that the Vodafone Smart V8 can stream media at speeds of up to 300 megabits per second (Mbps) over
Vodafone’s 4G network*.
The Vodafone Smart V8 also has top of the range features like a fingerprint sensor, 5.5” Full HD screen with reinforced
2.5D Dragontrail glass, high spec 16 megapixel (MP) rear and 8MP front camera with dual flash and 3000 milliamp hour
battery.
“The Vodafone Smart V8 promises to be one of the best smartphones released this year for people who want a great
smartphone for using lots of data, but have a constrained budget. We believe this is the best value smart phone in New
Zealand for under $400,” Matt said.
The Vodafone Smart N8 also won a 2017 World iF Design Award and is an ideal device for young adults or anyone in a
family. The inclusion of a fingerprint sensor provides increased security and is also integrated with enhanced parental
controls on the device.
The Vodafone Smart N8 is also great for those wanting to watch videos on the go, with a 5” screen, 16GB of available
