While vivo has yet to formally launch when the V30 series in the Philippines, the brand has listed the V30 at their official Shopee store–and revealed what appears to be its official price. The listing reveals that the 12GB/256GB variant of the vivo V30 will have an official price of Php 25,999, but currently has a promo price of Php 23,999 as part of its 3.3 Sale until March 3. The listing mentions that you can get the V30 for under Php 22k with Shopee vouchers and that those purchasing within the flash sale period will get a pair of Wireless Earphones.

It’s worth noting that we only saw the price of the V30 at the official vivo store in Shopee; the listing is not there in their Lazada store, so it seems that they are “soft launching” the V30 as a Shopee exclusive for now. 

With the price reveal, the V30 is essentially Php 1k more expensive than the V29 of the same variant at launch. However, the price hike on the V30 is justified because it uses a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, which is significantly better than the Snapdragon 778G found on its predecessor. Aside from that, the V30 is getting a new 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera that has autofocus and can shoot 4K videos, making the V29 a very well-rounded mid-range phone for content creation.
