A quick peek at the terms and conditions of the contest revealed that the alleged retail value (ARV) of the V30 is $749.99 (~Php38.4k):
Screenshot for evidence, of course.
ARVs give more or less the possible pricing of a unit, and if the V30 is valued at around $750, that makes the V30 priced $180 cheaper than its closest rival: Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8, which is priced at $930. Considering they come head-to-head specs-wise, the pricing should entice people to go for the V30 over the Note 8.
