Launched back in October 2020, Vivo V 20 is the company’s best offering in Nepal right now. However, its successor, the Vivo V 21 is now available in Nepal. Here, we’ll be looking at the specs, pre-booking offers, availability, and official price in Nepal of Vivo V 21.
Vivo V 21 Overview:
Design & Display
Vivo V 21 features a 6.44-inch FHD AMOLED screen with a waterdrop notch. It is an E 3 panel manufactured by Samsung and has support for a 90 Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ content.
The display boasts a typical brightness of 500 nits or up to 800 nits under High Brightness Mode (HBM). Because it’s an OLED panel, this screen also hides an in-display fingerprint scanner underneath. Still, I would say that the notch looks out of place on a phone in this price range.
At the back, Vivo has opted for AG Matte Glass design like in its predecessor. Here, the weight and the thickness vary according to the color options. The Dusk Blue variant is marginally slimmer (7.29mm) and lighter (176gm) than the Sunset Dazzle and Arctic White options, which are 7.39mm thick and weigh 177 grams.

Performance and Memory
Moving on, Vivo V 21 is powered by the Dimensity 800U processor. It’s a MediaTek chipset based on a 7 nm process. It has two Cortex-A 76 (@2.4 GHz) and six Cortex-A55 (@2.0 Hz) CPU cores. The graphics are handled by Mali-G 57 GPU.
In the international market, V 21 is available in either 4 G or 5 G variants—both with the exact same spec-sheet apart from their network connectivity. Here, Vivo Nepal is bringing the 4 G variant of the phone. It runs on the latest Funtouch OS 11.1 based on Android 11 out-of-the-box.
On the memory front, it comes with 8 GB of RAM and 128/256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Vivo claims that its Extended RAM feature can increase RAM by up to 3 GB using internal storage. You can extend the internal storage via a micro SD card as well, but that’ll sacrifice the V 21’s dual-SIM capability.

Camera
Getting to the cameras, Vivo V 21 features three cameras at the back and one at the front. Leading the lineup is a 64 MP primary sensor with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) for stable shooting. It is accompanied by an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP super macro camera.
Like with the V 20, users can use both the front and rear camera setup simultaneously. This feature can be great if you are into vlogging. Similarly, Vivo has included OIS for the front camera as well. Its 44 MP selfie camera even has a dual-LED flash to help you take pictures in the dark. It can record stable 4 K videos too.
Rest of the specs
Vivo V 21 is fueled by a moderate 4,000 mAh battery and has support for 33 W fast charging. Connectivity-wise you get a hybrid SIM slot, dual-band Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 5.1. The phone features a down-firing single speaker and it doesn’t have a 3.5 mm headphone jack either. But, Vivo does ship an earphone jack adapter inside the box.
