vivo announced its new Y21T in Indonesia before its debut in India on January 3.
vivo Y21T is now official!
The new vivo Y21T is an enhanced version of the previous Y21 that only carries a MediaTek Helio P35 processor. This latest device now equips the 6nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 octa-core processor that only features a 4G LTE modem. In addition, this chipset has the Qualcomm Adreno 610 GPU and Qualcomm Kryo 265 CPU.
They also increased its RAM from 4GB to 6GB LPDDR4X and feature a Dynamic RAM extension of 2GB Virtual RAM. Besides, also comes with a large 128GB UFS 2.1 internal storage that can expand via microSD card slot.
As for the screen, it still comes with 6.51-inch HD+ LCD with a 20:9 Aspect ratio and 89% screen-to-body ratio. Like the Y21, it only has a native screen refresh rate and does not come with smooth 90Hz. Plus, it still features a waterdrop notch which is quite disappointing since this is a mid-range phone.
Moreover, vivo bumps the main shooter to a 50MP camera and comes along with a 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensor. At the front, it only comes with a decent 8MP selfie shooter. Its rear camera is also equipped with Super Night mode and RAW-level super noise-canceling technology that delivers sharp images. Besides, it also features Super HDR that will automatically bring out great contrast and color of your photos.
For the battery, it includes a large 5,000mAh battery capacity that supports 18W fast charging. Since its chipset is based on 6nm fabrication, expect a more efficient battery life.
The new vivo Y21T also runs FuntouchOS 12 based on Android 11 out of the box. Its other features are a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, 4G LTE, Bluetooth 5.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, and dedicated card slot. Lastly, this phone also comes with Midnight Blue and Pearl White colorways.

The vivo Y21T is now available in Indonesia through Shopee for only IDR3,099,000 (around PHP 11K). However, there’s no information yet about its local availability and price.
