A potentially new smartphone by Vivo, the V21 SE has been spotted on the Geekbench database. The Geekbench listing is a sequel to an earlier mention of the Vivo V21 SE on Google Play Console in which some of the specifications of the upcoming smartphone were stated. The device is listed with the model number Vivo V2061. The listing has also provided additional performance metrics and specifications of the upcoming Vivo V21 SE.

The device with the stated model number Vivo V2061 garnered 553 and 1697 points, respectively, in the single-core and multi-core tests. The smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm’s octa-core Snapdragon processor, whose codename corresponds to the Snapdragon 720G.

In addition, the smartphone will have 8GB of RAM (same as the Google Play Console listing), and it will run on Android 11 together with the FunTouchOS. We already know that the V21 SE’s display will have a 1080×2400 pixel resolution and 440PPI pixel density. There are indications that the V21 SE will have a 6.58-inch IPS LCD, a dual-camera system with a 48MP primary camera.

The V21 SE will equally pack a 5,000mAh battery with the possibility of 18W fast charging. We also expect Vivo to come up with a couple of variants of the V21 SE in terms of RAM and internal storage.

Vivo recently released two smartphones from the V21 series in selected countries. The company has not provided any official communication on the possible date of release of the V21 SE, neither have they provided pricing information for the smartphone. We would expect that more details and specifications about the upcoming V21 SE will become available as we move closer to the eventual unveiling of the smartphone.

The post Vivo V2061 purported to be the V21 SE spotted on Geekbench database appeared first on Gizmochina.

A few days ago, Vivo renewed its midrange portfolio by launching a new series of selfie phones. The new lineup is composed of three devices: Vivo V21, Vivo V21 5G, and Vivo V21e. All of them share a very important feature in common: a stunning selfie camera. But they are a lot more than selfie phones. In this comparison between their specifications, you will learn for what these devices differ from each other as well as their pros and cons.

Vivo V21 vs Vivo V21 5G vs Vivo V21e

Design

At first glance, it looks like Vivo V21, V21 5G, and V21e have the same design, but it is not exactly the truth. The Vivo V21e is slightly less impressive because it comes with thicker bezels around the display, less elegant color variants, and a slightly different camera module. With the Vivo V21 and the V21 5G, you get a more compact design thanks to narrower bezels around the display. Vivo V21 and V21 5G have the same design, but the latter comes in an additional Arctic White color variant besides the Dusk Blue and the Sunset Dazzle color versions.

Display

Besides having the same design, Vivo V21 and V21 5G also share the same display panel. It is a great AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.44 inches, a 90 Hz refresh rate, a Full HD resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, and the HDR10+ certification. They also feature an above-average 500 nit typical brightness. These are good features for a display, especially in the midrange segment. The Vivo V21e is inferior because it lacks a high refresh rate and it comes with the HDR10 certification instead of HDR10+. All the phones sport an in-display fingerprint scanner.

Hardware/Software

The Vivo V21 and the V21 5G feature the same chipset: we are talking about the Dimensity 800U by MediaTek. Despite that, only the V21 5G supports 5G connectivity. Further, the Vivo V21 5G has a better memory configuration including 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage. The Vivo V21e has inferior hardware and no 5G, but it still comes with a good chipset, suitable even for gaming: the Snapdragon 720G by Qualcomm. The phones run Android 11 out of the box, customized by Funtouch OS.

Camera

The killer feature of the Vivo V21 series is their astonishing 44 MP front camera: the world’s first selfie camera with OIS supported by dual-LED flash. The 44 MP front snapper is able to record 4K videos with OIS and shoot HDR photos as well. On the rear side, Vivo V21 and V21 5G feature a triple camera with a 64 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide camera, a 2 MP macro camera, and OIS. The Vivo V21e has a 64 MP triple camera as well, but it lacks OIS.

Battery

Vivo V21, V21 5G, and V21e all come with a 4000 mAh battery supporting 33W fast charging. So you get a similar battery life, but consider that the Dimensity 800U found on V21 and V21 5G is built with a better 7 nm production process.

Vivo V21 vs Vivo V21 5G vs Vivo V21e: Price

Vivo V21 starts from €320/$390 in China, Vivo V21 5G is priced €340/$414 in its base variant, and Vivo V21e starts from €240/$292. Despite it is the most expensive one, the Vivo V21 5G offers a very high value for money: the price difference between the V21 5G and the V21 is minimum, but the former has 5G.

Vivo has unveiled its mid-range V21 series smartphones in Malaysia, each signposted with an excellent camera setup and other nice features. The models include the Vivo V21, V21 5G, and V21e and they are touted to have among the best selfie cameras found on mid-rangers in the market.

The three models feature an exact triple rear camera system highlighted by a 64MP main OIS-enabled camera. They each have an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera and a 2 MP macro setup. The front and the rear cameras are capable of split-screen shots.

The V21 and the V21 5G are powered by Dimensity 800U chipset, but the V21 5G has 5G capability and a few connectivity differences. You can get up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage for the devices. The V21e, on the other hand, runs on a Snapdragon 720G chipset, a bit different from the first two models in the series.

The V21 and V21 5G offer a 44MP selfie camera with autofocus capabilities and a few added features like OIS and EIS, providing high-quality output while watching videos via the device. With a decent refresh rate, the display is capable of showing 4K videos and a 90Hz refresh rate. The dual-LED flash on both devices works together with the OIS selfie camera for excellent output. The LED also helps produce excellent photo and video content in the dark, combined with the AI Night portrait mode. The autofocus mode present in the models is also an innovation that is not even present in some high-end models.

The Vivo V21e comes with a 44MP front camera with autofocus capability and OIS absent. The dual-LED flash is absent from the V21e, but Night Portrait and Super Night Selfie modes present. The three Vivo smartphones each come with a 4,000 mAh battery and 33W fast charging support.

As for the price, the Vivo V21 will cost around  MYR 1,600 (~$390), and the V21e costs about MYR 1,200 (~$293). The 5G V21 will not be released in Malaysia. The models will become available in a few days in select parts of the world as the global rollout unfolds. India is expected to see the models on April 29.

The post Vivo V21, V21 5G with Dimensity 800U launched in Malaysia, Vivo V21e tags along appeared first on Gizmochina.

Vivo has been teasing the V21 series in Malaysia recently. Today, it has confirmed the launch date of the device in the country. Further, a report by Moneycontrol says that the devices will launch in India on the same date.

In a tweet, Vivo Malaysia has revealed that the Vivo V21 series will debut in the country on April 27. Similarly, as per the report, the company will likely launch the devices in India on the same date.

While Vivo India hasn’t confirmed the models, the company has revealed that the series will include Vivo V21 4G, V21 5G and V21e in Malaysia. On a microsite page, it has already revealed the features coming with the device.

The Vivo V21 series in Malaysia is said to have an AMOLED display with a teardrop notch upfront. And speaking of the front, the selfie camera will be a 44MP camera sensor and it will be assisted by two LED flashlights, OIS. The last time we saw the front-facing dual-LED flash was the Vivo S9 series in China.

On the back, we can expect two color variants and one of which will be a Blue color option. The Triple-camera setup will have a 64MP primary sensor with OIS. The camera layout, which reminds us of the iQOO 7 and Vivo X60 devices, has “AI camera” and “1.179-2.4 OIS” written beside the LED flash.

Under the hood, the Vivo V21 series is also said to a technology that is similar to the memory fusion we recently saw on iQOO Z3. Here, it will typically make a device with an 8GB RAM function like an 11GB version. That is, the additional 3GB RAM effect will be provided for mitigating the lags.

That said, it is worth noting that the Vivo V21 series was previously said to arrive with 5G to India before. However,  the report by Moneycontrol says that only the Vivo V21 model will land in India on April 27. And the other devices will arrive at a later date.

Additionally, the report says that the Vivo V21 selfie camera will have Eye Auto Focus (AF), and probably retail for under ₹25,000. Eye Auto Focus tracks the movement of the eyes to make sure if the object is inside the frame.

In related news, tipster Abhishek Yadav has shared posters of the V21 series for India. It appears that India will be receiving Vivo V21 4G and Vivo V21 5G smartphones. Both phones will carry support for OIS and dual front-firing flash. Vivo is yet to confirm the arrival of V21 models in India.

The post Vivo V21, V21e to launch soon in Malaysia, 44MP selfie camera and 64MP rear camera with OIS confirmed appeared first on Gizmochina.

Chinese smartphone maker vivo is expected to launch the vivo V21 series in the coming days. The vanilla model in the lineup called vivo V21 5G was recently certified in Indonesia. A few days later, this handset has cleared India’s BIS certification as well.

The upcoming vivo v21 series will be the successor to the vivo V20 series. For those unaware, the vivo V20 series includes a single 5G device called vivo V20 Pro 5G. Whereas, the vivo V21 series may include at least two 5G models.

That’s because the standard vivo V21 has been certified as a 5G smartphone in both Indonesia and India with model number V2050. Since the previous-gen Pro model is a 5G-ready device, we expect vivo V21 Pro to support 5G as well.

Further, the vivo V20 Pro 5G is a rebranded vivo S7 5G, which is sold in China. Hence, the vivo S9 5G could launch as vivo V21 Pro 5G. Similarly, we think that vivo S9e could be the vivo V21 5G.

Anyway, it is just speculation from our end. We are yet to come across any proof that could prove this theory. As of now, all we can say is that vivo V21 5G could release in Indonesia and India.

Last but not least, the vivo V21 series will reportedly include vivo S21 SE as well.

The post vivo V21 5G clears India’s BIS certification ahead of launch appeared first on Gizmochina.

Chinese smartphone maker vivo was tipped to launch the vivo V21 series in India in February. However, that never happened. But now, the upcoming vivo V21 5G finally appears on a certification bureau before going official.

The yet-to-release vivo V21 5G has been spotted on the Indonesia Telecom certification website. According to the listing, this phone will bear the model number V2050. Unfortunately, the listing does not any anything else about this handset.

As per the previous report, the vivo V21 series will include three devices, namely vivo V21, vivo V21 Pro, and vivo V21 SE. However, just like the certification, it also did not reveal anything about these upcoming phones.

As of now, we can only speculate on these handsets. Going by the previous generation, we can expect the vivo V21 Pro 5G to be a rebranded vivo S9. Because the vivo V20 Pro 5G is a rebadged vivo S7.

Also, as per Indonesia Telecom certification, the vivo V21 will be a 5G device, unlike its predecessor vivo V20. Hence, it could be the cheaper vivo S9e that was unveiled alongside the vivo S9 in China.

Anyway, as we mentioned earlier, this is merely speculation. We recommend you wait for more certifications and leaks to pop up in order to learn more about the forthcoming vivo V21 series.

Well, if you had thought of taking a breather, hold on, because we are back with yet another edition of Upcoming Smartphones April 2021 Edition.

As usual, we have entries from well-known brands like OPPO, Xiaomi, Redmi, realme, Nokia, and a few surprises from companies like Sony and TCL. So without wasting your time, let’s dive into it straight away.

  • OPPO is said to bring the remaining devices of the OPPO Axx series and it might happen this month. The company has already unveiled the OPPO A54 4G version already. Next in line could be the OPPO A74, A54, and A94 5G models.
  • The OPPO A74 4G is said to come in certain markets as rebranded OPPO F19 while the 5G version could have Snapdragon 480 chipset.
  • On the other hand, the OPPO A94 5G could be the OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G for Europe whereas OPPO A54 5G is said to be a rebadged version of OPPO A93 5G.

• Huawei P50 series

  • When it comes to Huawei, things haven’t been so smooth lately. The company is struggling a lot to gather the supply chain after the US ban and it is hitting them hard. Previously rumored to come this month, the launch of the Huawei P50 series looks to be a far cry for now.
  • However, anything can happen in between so let’s hope that Huawei turns tables to come back stronger.

Vivo is gearing up to launch the Vivo V20 Pro 5G smartphone in India. Speculations have it that the handset may go official on Dec. 2 in the country. While Vivo fans are waiting for the smartphone, a new report by 91mobiles claims that the company has already started working on the Vivo V21 series. The publication claims that the company may unleash the V21 lineup in February 2020.

The Vivo V20 series includes three phones such as the Vivo V20, Vivo V20 SE, and Vivo V20 Pro. It is unclear how many phones belong to the V21 series. Based on the Vivo V20 series, the publication has speculated that the lineup may include phones like the Vivo V21, Vivo V21 SE, and Vivo V21 Pro. At present, there is no information available on the specs of the Vivo V21 series.

To recall, the Vivo V20 went official in October in India and the sales of the Vivo V20 SE began in November. The V20 Pro 5G will go on sale in December in the country. Hence, the three phones of the Vivo V21 series may not go official at the same time.

The Vivo V20 went official around five months after the launch of the Vivo V19. Hence, there is a possibility that the first V21 handsets may break cover by February. It may take a month or two more to launch other V21 series smartphones.

Those who are waiting for the Vivo V20 Pro 5G can pre-order it through offline stores. The handset is expected to arrive with a price tag of Rs 29,990. The key features of the phone include a 6.44-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, Snapdragon 765G, 44-megapixel dual selfie cameras, 64-megapixel triple rear shooters, and a 4,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support.
