Editorial report

vivo Y21d 6 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet

The vivo Y21d suits buyers who prioritize a large battery and physical protection, but its trade-off is weak performance. The 6500 mAh battery supports 44 W charging and reverse charging. The body resists water and dust with IP68 and IP69, as well as shocks and drops under MIL-STD-810H.

Its 6.68-inch IPS LCD reaches 1000 nits and 90 Hz. At 264 ppi, the display is less sharp than most phones of its time, while 90 Hz is among the weakest refresh rates. The Unisoc T7225 scores 222,000 points in AnTuTu v10, putting performance among the weakest of its time. This version has 4 GB / 128 GB; the vivo Y21d is also sold in 6 GB / 128 GB and 6 GB / 256 GB configurations.

The 50 MP main camera has an f/1.8 aperture and records 1080p at 30 fps, but it has no optical image stabilization. Overall, the camera stands worse than most phones of its time. The phone also includes dual SIM, Bluetooth 5.2, stereo speakers and several navigation systems, although connectivity overall stands worse than most. With a NeoScore of 4.8, it is aimed at buyers who value battery capacity and resistance rather than power or photography.
