Vivo Y21 Review

,Vivo Y21: Design ,Vivo has launched several budget phones in the “Y” series. The Vivo Y21 is one of the newest models announced in this lineup in India. The smartphone features a textured design with one of the models offering a gradient diamond-cut design. The handset features a protruding vertical camera module positioned on the upper-left corner of the back panel followed by the Vivo branding at the bottom. It has a slim form factor with 8mm thickness and a 2.5D flat frame. Upfront, the Vivo Y21 flaunts a 6.50-inch display. The display supports standard 720 x 1600 pixels HD+ resolution and a waterdrop notch. This is suitable for watching movies and TV shows on OTT platforms. ,  ,Vivo Y21: Hardware Performance ,The Vivo Y21 is packed with the octa-core MediaTek MT6765 processor. This chipset is also marketed as the Helio P35 SoC. It is an entry-level processor which can perform all the basic tasks such as low-end gaming and media playback and also web browsing. The device has been launched with a single 4GB RAM option. This can handle multitasking as well with ease. The storage options offered by the handset are dual. You can select from 64GB and 128GB storage options. If this isn’t enough, the device also supports an external microSD card. ,  ,Vivo Y21: Price To Specs Ratio ,The Vivo Y21 as mentioned above comes in two different variants. The low-end model which has 4GB RAM and 64GB storage configuration is priced at Rs. 13,990. The second variant which has 4GB RAM and 128GB storage option can be purchased at Rs. 15,490 via online and offline stores in the country. The handset has been announced in Midnight Blue and Diamond Glow color options. The pricing is slightly higher for a budget phone that is powered by an entry-level SoC. ,  ,Vivo Y21: Camera Performance ,The imaging setup that the V21 equips is a dual-lens module at the back and a single-selfie snapper tucked inside the waterdrop notch. Speaking of the specifications, the back panel has a 13MP main camera along with a 2MP additional sensor. This camera will offer good feedback with basic photography specifically in the broad daylight. The camera app has some dedicated shooting modes including the standard HDR, Portrait, and Panorama for added effects. The night camera performance would be average on this handset. The self-portraits are clicked by an 8MP camera upfront. ,  ,Vivo Y21: Important/ Highlight Features ,The Vivo Y21’s extra set of features includes a fingerprint scanner at the back panel for biometrics and Android 11 firmware. The device has 4G, 3G, dual SIM, Wi-Fi. Bluetooth, and a 3.5mm headphone jack connectivity feature. The battery driving the Vivo Y21 measures 5,000 mAh that is supported with standard charging speeds. ,  ,Vivo Y21: Verdict ,The Vivo Y21 has arrived as a budget handset tagged under Rs. 15,000 in India. However, this pricing is higher if you compare the other devices in this segment. There are a bunch of new handsets that have launched in this segment that are equipped with a better camera where the primary sensor is bigger than the 13MP used on the Y12. A better camera or display for an asking price of Rs. 13,990 in India would have made it a good deal.

Pros

  • Budget phone with a tall HD+ display

  • Big 5,000 mAh battery with fast charging

Cons

  • A but costly compared to competitions

  • Average camera hardware
