Comparison between vivo Y11, vivo Y05 and vivo Y21 5G: camera, battery, fast charging, display, performance and colors, side by side. More phones from vivo.

NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The vivo Y21 5G is the choice for more performance, camera capability and connectivity: its 8 GB of RAM, Bluetooth 5.4, 50 MP main camera and 44 W charging put it clearly ahead. The vivo Y11 is the middle option, while the vivo Y05 only makes sense if it costs less.

For performance, the Y11 and Y21 5G share the MediaTek Dimensity 6300, Mali-G57 MC2 GPU and an AnTuTu score of 409,000, versus the Y05’s Unisoc T7225, Mali-G52 MP1 and 252,597. The Y21 5G adds 8 GB of RAM, while the other two have 4 GB. The displays are level overall; the Y11 and Y21 5G do include 120Hz, unlike the Y05.

The Y21 5G’s main camera reaches 50 MP at f/1.8, compared with 13 MP at f/2.2 on the Y11 and 8 MP at f/2 on the Y05. All three have a 6,500 mAh battery and 58 hours per cycle under the European energy label, but the Y21 5G charges at 44 W versus 15 W. The Y11 and Y21 5G offer 5G; the Y05 stops at LTE.
