Earlier this week, the vivo V21 series made its global debut in Malaysia. The lineup includes three smartphones, namely vivo V21, vivo V21 5G, and vivo V21e. As scheduled, the company has now launched the vivo V21 5G in India as well.
vivo V21 5G Specifications and Features
The vivo V21 5G is a selfie-centric smartphone with a boxy design. The handset flaunts a 6.44-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a resolution of 2404 × 1080 pixels, a 90Hz refresh rate, an in-screen fingerprint sensor, and a dewdrop notch.
It is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 800U SoC coupled with 8GB RAM and an optional 3GB virtual RAM that can be enabled or disabled as per requirement. The device comes with 128GB/256GB internal storage with support for expansion via a MicroSD card slot.
The main highlight of this phone is its 44MP selfie camera equipped with OIS. Whereas, the rear camera setup on this handset includes a 64MP primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a 2MP macro shooter.
On the connectivity front, the device supports dual-SIM, 5G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.1, and GNSS (GPS, BEIDOU, GALILEO, GLONASS). Unfortunately, the phone lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack but features all the essential sensors like an accelerometer, proximity sensor, compass, ambient light sensor, and gyroscope.
As far as software is concerned, the smartphone runs Funtouch OS 11.1 based on Android 11. Further, it draws power from a 4,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging via USB Type-C.
Lastly, the vivo V21 5G comes in three colors – Sunset Dazzle, Arctic White, and Dusk Blue. The first two color options measure 159.68 x 73.90 x 7.39mm in dimensions and weigh 177g. On the other hand, the blue color variant is thinner and lighter at 7.29mm and 176g respectively.
