The Vivo V21 5G is a member of the Vivo V21 series, which was first introduced in Malaysia. The Vivo V21, Vivo V21 5G, and Vivo V21e are all part of the portfolio. In this article, we’ll look at the Vivo V21 5G, which was just released in India.
The Vivo V21 5G is the 5G version of the smartphone. The sole difference between the smartphone and the V21 is the 5G connectivity.
The body design of the Vivo V21 5G is identical to that of the Vivo V21. The handset is made of aluminum and has a scratch-resistant glass panel. It has measurements of 159.7 x 73.9 x 7.3 mm and weighs 176 grams.
It sports a dewdrop notch on the front, which has a 6.44-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a resolution of 2404 x 1080 pixels, a 90Hz refresh rate, and an under-display fingerprint scanner.
The handset includes the same 44 MP selfie cameras with OIS as the previous model. The camera also shoots 4K films and has a dual-LED flash that works in tandem with an OIS selfie camera to provide high-quality results.
When paired with the AI Night portrait mode, the LED flash will produce great photo and video footage in a dark environment. A 64MP primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a 2MP macro shooter are all found on the rear of the phone.
The MediaTek Dimensity 800U SoC, which has an octa-core processor clocked at 22.4 GHz, powers the Vivo V21 5G. It is equipped with a Mali-G57 MC3 graphics card and runs Android 11 with Funtouch 11.1 on top.
