Looking at the images, we can confirm the design of the handsets along with their color options. Talking about the V23e first, it is positioned below the V23 and V23 Pro and will be available in a Sunshine Gold and Midnight Blue color options.

The gold model appears to have multiple color hues as well, which is likely based on the angle at which the light is being reflected from its rear panel. Furthermore, the device sports a triple camera setup on the rear, which likely consists of a 50 megapixel primary sensor, paired with an 8 megapixel ultra wide angle lens and a 2 megapixel macro sensor. For selfies, the device is expected to offer a 44 megapixel camera on the front. Other features include, Dimensity 810 SoC, 6.44 inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of internal storage.

The Vivo Y15S is an entry level model that will reportedly launch in two gradient color schemes. One is confirmed to be in a dark blue shade, as seen in the live images. It sports a dual camera setup on the rear, while the front features a 6.51 inch IPS HD+ display. This model funds Android 11 (Go Edition) with FunTouchOS 11.1 custom skin on top. Unfortunately, there were no finer details shared with these images, so we will have to wait for the official announcement to know more.

The Vivo V23e sports a 6.44-inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen with a 90.37% screen-to-body ratio. The device uses a waterdrop notch design which houses a stunning 50-megapixel camera. This is perhaps the most spectacular feature onboard the device.

The device also has a 7.36mm ultra-thin body.

The V23e is powered by a MediaTek Helio G96 chipset paired with up to 8GB RAM. As is consistent with Vivo’s recent models, the V23e comes with up to 4GB of extended RAM. The device comes with 128GB of UFS 2.1 storage and it is expandable via microSD.

Vivo started to release devices with amazing selfie cameras and it is bringing them even to the global market. Earlier this year, the company launched the Vivo V21 5G coming with one of the best selfie cameras ever which includes OIS and a front-facing flash. Now, the Chinese giant came up with the first phone from the V23 series and it has another awesome selfie camera: we are talking about the Vivo V23e. While the Vivo V21 5G is a higher-end variant of the V21 series, the V23e is the entry-level model from the V23 lineup. So which one is better? This comparison between their specifications will hopefully let you find out.

Vivo V23e vs Vivo V21 5G

Design

The designs of these handsets do not differ too much. If we look at the front panel, they are almost impossible to distinguish from each other. But the Vivo V21 5G has a higher screen to body ratio, as well as slightly smaller dimensions. On the rear side, the only important difference regards the camera module: on the Vivo V23e, the cameras are arranged vertically, while the Vivo V21 5G has a more similar placement to the latest iPhones, more square-shaped and with cameras sporting different dimensions. Both the phones are built with polycarbonate and they do not offer premium materials, but they are very thin and lightweight.

Display

Do not get fooled by the fact that Vivo V23e is a more recent model: the best display belongs to the Vivo V21 5G. It is equipped with an AMOLED display sporting a diagonal of 6.44 inches, a 90 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification. The Vivo V23e has an AMOLED display as well, but its refresh rate is standard and you do not get certifications indicating that its image quality is improved. Vivo V21 5G and V23e come with Full HD+ resolutions and an in-display fingerprint reader. The display diagonal is the same but, as said above, the V21 5G has a higher screen to body ratio that means narrower bezels around the display.

Hardware/Software

These phones are both mid-rangers, but the best hardware setup is provided by the Vivo V21 5G. The Mediatek Dimensity 800U found on the V21 5G is actually superior to the Mediatek Helio G96 of the V23e in terms of CPU and GPU performance. Further, it supports the 5G connectivity, while the Helio G96 does not. The RAM goes up to 8 GB, but you can get more internal storage if you choose the Vivo V21 5G: up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 native storage which you can furtherly expand through a micro SD slot. Both the handsets run Android 11 out of the box, but the Vivo V23e comes with Funtouch OS 12 providing more features and renewed look, while the V21 5G is still based on Funtouch OS 11.1.

Camera

The rear cameras of these two devices are exactly the same: a 64 MP main sensor with an f/1.8 focal aperture, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP macro camera. But the Vivo V21 5G is able to provide a better photo quality because it has OIS improving the stabilization. The Vivo V23e has a more powerful dual-LED flash, but having OIS is a more important added value, even in low light conditions. The most important aspect of these phones is the selfie camera. With the Vivo V21 5G, you get a whopping 44 MP front camera with OIS and a front-facing dual-LED flash. The Vivo V23e has an even more interesting sensor with a 50 MP resolution, but it lacks OIS and front-facing LED flash. Despite being older, the Vivo V21 5G wins the selfie comparison.

Battery

The Vivo V23e has a slightly bigger battery with a capacity of 4050 mAh (against just 4000 mAh), but the Vivo V21 5G can still provide a longer battery life because its processor is built with a better 7 nm production process. On the other hand, the Vivo V23e has a faster charging technology with 44W power, but you still get a high speed while charging the Vivo V21 5G thanks to a power of 33W.

Vivo V23e vs Vivo V21 5G: Price

The starting prices of Vivo V23e and V21 5G in the Asian market roughly translate into €330/$370 at the actual change, but the V21 5G has a wider availability and is available with better street prices because it is older. That is the reason why the Vivo V21 5G wins the value for money comparison while still providing a superior hardware and camera department.

Vivo is reportedly working on the Vivo V23 series of smartphones. The lineup seems to include at least three devices such as Vivo V23e, Vivo V23, and Vivo V23 Pro. A hands-on video of the V23e had appeared at the beginning of this week to reveal its appearance and key features. Hence, it appears that the V23e may go official soon. Today, tipster Chun shared a banner image of the smartphone. The image reveals its design and some of the key features.

As can be seen in the image below, the Vivo V23e’s display will have a u-shaped notch and a noticeable chin. Its bottom edge has a microphone, a USB-C port, and a speaker grille. Like the predecessor model, it seems to feature an OLED panel with an in-screen fingerprint scanner.

The image states that the Vivo V23e will feature a 50-megapixel front-facing camera and a 64-megapixel rear camera. The handset will come in colors like black and gradient blue.

Rumors surrounding the V23e has revealed that its 64-megapixel triple camera unit will include an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera and a 2-megapixel macro lens. The device will be backed by a 4,030mAh battery that supports 44W fast charging.

Vivo‘s upcoming smartphone under the V-series has been in the news quite often lately. The model known as Vivo V23e has now appeared on the database of benchmark app GeekBench.The Vivo bears the model number V2116 which has a history dating back to July when it first appeared on the IMEI database listed as Vivo V23e. The V2116 also appeared at Bluetooth SIG in September. That isn’t all, just a few days back, a hands-on video of the model appeared online giving us our first look at the device.

Coming to the GeekBench listing, the device is listed with a MediaTek Helio A22 chipset paired with a staggering 8GB RAM. It will run on the Android 11 operating system which will likely have a touch of Funtouch OS 12.  The device polled a total score of 473 points on the single-core test and 1,668 points on the multi-core test. The GeekBench listing, as usual, isn’t generous with details of the model. Also, the specs and Geekbench scores don’t match up so we’ll take this with some doubt.

The earlier leaked video shows the device will pack a triple 64MP camera setup at the rear while the selfie aspect will be piloted by a 50MP front camera. The device will also be powered by a 4,030 mAh battery with 44W charging.

Vivo V23e design and specifications (Rumored)

The video reveals that the Vivo V23e has a waterdrop notch display. It seems to be an OLED panel since it is equipped with an in-screen fingerprint scanner. It has a glass back and a plastic frame.

The left edge of the device appears barren, while the right side features a volume rocker and a power key. A microphone is placed on the top edge of the device, whereas its bottom edge features a SIM slot, a microphone, a USB Type-C port, and a speaker grille. The device lacks a 3.5mm audio jack.

The chipset spec is a bit wrong because Antutu says MT6781 (Helio A22) but about phone says 8 cores 2.05GHz while A22 only has 4 cores, plus V23e does support 5G too so don't take chipset leak pic.twitter.com/i15VvFxhoz

Back in July, a Vivo phone with model number V2116 was spotted at the IMEI database with the Vivo V23e name. The listing suggested that the Chinese manufacturer will be announcing it in the coming months as the successor to the Vivo V21e that debuted earlier this year. Today, the V23e appeared in the database of the Bluetooth SIG authority. The listing suggests that it may go official as early as next month.

Before appearing at Bluetooth SIG, the V23e has also been spotted at other certification sites like Indonesia’s TKDN and Europe’s EEC. The Bluetooth SIG listing only reveals that the smartphone will come with support for Bluetooth 5.2.

The latest version of Bluetooth 5.2 suggests that it could be equipped with a powerful chip. The Vivo V21e had arrived with Snapdragon 720G. Probably, the V23e could be featuring a more powerful Snapdragon 7-series chip. The existence of the V23e also indicates that the arrival of other Vivo V23 series of smartphones may not be far away.

The Vivo V21e is available in 4G and 5G versions with some differing specs in India. As far as the V23e is concerned, the company may release it only in a 5G version.

Chinese handset maker vivo is yet to launch all the models in the vivo V21 series in India. However, the company has already begun to certify the lineup’s successor – vivo V23 series. One of the models in the upcoming series has been spotted on a database.

According to a new finding by tech influencer Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings), the vivo V21 series will be succeeded by vivo V23 series. He has spotted a device part of this forthcoming lineup.

The handset that he has come across on the IMEI database is vivo V23e. This phone bears the model number V2116. Going by the branding, it will be the direct successor of vivo V21e.

Hence, we can expect the vivo V23e to be similar to the vivo V21e with some improvements. For those unaware, the vivo V21e comes in both 4G and 5G variants. Hence, the upcoming vivo V23e may also arrive in two versions.

The model that has been spotted appears to be the LTE version of the device. Because vivo is known for using 5G branding for its budget and mid-range handsets with 5G connectivity.

Unfortunately, it’s not known when vivo will be officially unveiling this phone. Anyway, we can expect features like an AMOLED display, three or more rear cameras, mid-range 4G-only SoC, 4,000mAh or more battery, 33W or faster charging, and a striking design.
