Editorial report

vivo Y21G technical sheet

The vivo Y21G suits buyers looking for a straightforward Android phone who value a relatively light, slim design. Its main trade-off is the camera and hardware: both rank worse than most phones launched around the same time. The 6.51″ display has a pixel density of 270 ppi, lower than that of most phones of its time, while the display overall is typical for the period.

At 182 g, the phone weighs less than most phones of its time, and its 8 mm thickness is also lower than that of most. Those figures may appeal to buyers who prefer a phone that is not especially heavy or thick. Its hardware is worse than most phones launched around the same time: it has 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, both below the amounts found in most phones of its time. Storage is expandable.

The 13 MP camera has lower resolution than most phones launched around the same time, and its f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest of its time. A 5000 mAh battery and 18 W charging are typical figures for the period. Overall, the vivo Y21G ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time and has a NeoScore of 4.1. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize a light, slim phone with Android 11 and are comfortable with more modest camera and hardware specifications.
