Vivo recently unveiled the Vivo V20 in countries like India and other Southeast Asian markets. However, it could get a sibling soon as a device with V20 2021 moniker appears on certification platforms and now Geekbench.
As 91mobile reports, a Vivo smartphone carrying model number V2040 appears on Geekbench benchmarking platform. The device scores 553 and 1765 single and multi-core scores respectively. Interestingly, the motherboard of the device in testing is ‘sm6150’ and is an Octa-Core processor with 1.8GHz frequency.
For the unaware, the port number of Snapdragon 675 SoC is ‘sm6150’. This suggests that the device is equipped with a chipset that launched two years ago. Anyway, the device in testing also runs Android 11 and has 8GB of RAM. While the Geekbench listing doesn’t shed any light on What could the device be, Indonesia’s SDPPI reveals the moniker.
Accordingly, the model number V2040 on SDPPI(Indonesia Telecom Certification) reveals that the device is “Vivo V20 2021“. Also, it has already got India’s BIS certification hinting that the device is coming to more than one market.

That said, nothing else is known about the device yet. However, considering it has a similar name to the Vivo V20, we can expect a few similarities in design, if not specs. And looking at the two-year-old Snapdragon 675, we feel that the device might be a watered-down variant of the already-selling V20.
The Vivo V20, which was the first device to get Android 11 pre-installed, came with a very slim body, triple cameras, and a display with water-drop notch. Hence, we can expect Vivo to retain it on the V20 2021. Additionally, the Android 11 listing suggests that the device might debut with Vivo’s recently launched OriginOS.
And since we are already at the end of 2020, Vivo should bring it somewhere in Q1 of next year. In any case, we are sure to get more leaks as the launch gets closer.
