Phoenix Medical Systems Private Ltd in Chennai India manufactures, distributes, and sells Brilliance under a license from D-Rev.
“D-Rev listens to customers and works with Phoenix so the product and manufacturing capabilities are aligned; it is a true partnership. The cooperation will create more products at affordable costs, and be a catalyst for market-change,” said Sashi Kumar, managing director of Phoenix Medical Systems.
While the base retail price with 1-year warranty is marked as $400 USD, the official press release on the launch of Brilliance Pro states that the product is available at a price point of $500 USD. This may be because of a licensing agreement between D-Rev and their distributor Phoenix Medical Systems Private Ltd that caps the selling price of Brilliance products in emerging and undercapitalized markets at $400 USD. Therefore, the price may differ based on the target market.
