NeoTeo's verdict
Which of the two is the better buy
The vivo Y60 is the most complete choice for performance and battery: its 8 GB of RAM and UFS 3.1 storage put it ahead of the Y11 and Y21. The Y11 suits buyers who prioritize connectivity, with 5G and Bluetooth 5.2; the Y21 is worth considering only if it costs less.
The Y60 shares the Y11’s 6.74-inch display and 85% usable surface, while the Y21 offers 6.51 inches, 270 ppi, and a lighter body at 182 g versus 209 g. It is also thinner: 8 mm versus 8.4 mm. The Y11 and Y60 have 6,500 mAh batteries versus 5,000 mAh in the Y21, although the Y21 charges at 18 W versus 15 W.
For photography, the Y21 has the higher-resolution front camera, at 8 MP versus 5 MP on the Y11 and Y60. The Y60 adds reverse charging and 120 fps slow-motion video, while the Y11 and Y60 offer 5G; the Y21 remains on 4G. All three have IPS LCD displays, 120 Hz refresh rates, and 1,200-nit peak brightness.
