The Vivo X21 is finally official in China. After decades of leaks and pile-load of renders, the company has finally made the smartphone official in its home country. The phone resembles the newly announced OPPO R15 so much that it even has the same screen size and resolution. What is more surprising is that they both shared the notch design and the 19:9 screen aspect ratio. But Vivo used Super AMOLED for its display and not OLED.
The X21 is thinner too, measuring just 7.37mm at its thickest point. Its bezels are minimal which gives it an astounding 90.3-percent screen-to-body-ratio. An octa-core Snapdragon 660 14nm processor powered the hardware with 6GB of RAM and 64GB/ 128GB of expandable storage coupled along. The phone runs FunTouch OS 4 based on Android 8.1 Oreo.

The dual rear camera is vertically aligned, the primary sporting a 12MP sensor with f/1.8 aperture, while the secondary camera is 5MP. There is also a 12MP camera at the front. The cameras are made smarter with AI that can auto recognize scenes and improve selfie beautification.
The Vivo X21 comes in two models; the first has a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, while the second model fingerprint sensor is embedded directly under the screen.
