The image indicates that the device doesn't have a notch but has narrow bezels around it. It is powered by a 1.95GHz octa-core processor backed by 3GB or 4GB RAM. Depending on the RAM, the phone will come with 32GB or 64GB of storage. It will also have support for expandable storage up to 256GB using a microSD card.

The device comes equipped with a 13MP rear camera, while a 5MP sensor is placed on the front for selfies. The Vivo V1731CA also has a fingerprint sensor for added security. It is fuelled by a 3285mAh battery and runs Android 8.1 Oreo. The phone weighs 148.15g and measures 155.87 x 75.74 x 7.8 mm.
