Internal Hardware
Vivo has packed the Y21 with Mediatek Helio P35 chipset and 4 GB RAM. The Helio P35 is an SoC that came in 2018 so it is not the latest chip. Vivo could have used a better processor from new generation chipsets that are out in the market. In the case of storage, there are two variants, one is 64 GB and one is 128 GB. Both storage variants have the same 4 GB RAM. At budget 4 GB RAM is market standard. Also in order to overcome RAM demand, Vivo has an extended RAM feature.

Display and Cameras
Vivo Y21 features a 6.51″ IPS LCD screen with 720×1600 resolution that provides an 89% screen-body ratio. The screen is the same as it was in the predecessor Y20. On the front screen, there is a notch at the top with an 8 MP selfie camera and f/2.0 aperture. The selfie camera can take videos at a maximum resolution of 1920×1080 ta 30 fps.
