Reviews for the Vivo V21e

90% vivo V21e smartphone review: More colors!
Source: Root Nation English
If you look at the characteristics, the vivo V21e looks like a reincarnation of the V20 with an updated design. A very good reincarnation, in fact. The main advantages of the V21e are a really good screen, a convenient shell without bloatware, quite decent performance with some reserve for the future, given the additional 3 GB of RAM, and decent cameras. An obvious plus is that today the V21e will cost $75 cheaper than the V20 with similar characteristics. In general, if you are looking for an up-to-date, powerful and good-looking smartphone for reasonable money, it is worth paying attention to the V21e.

Vivo V21e 5G Review – Cutbacks on Obvious Gimmicks
Source: Cashify English
Vivo V21e 5G cutbacks on obvious gimmicks i.e. a 2MP macro snapper. Plus, it gets rid of a high refresh rate, Dimensity 800U 5G, OIS, and a few other really useful specifications. Talking about Vivo V21e 5G individually, the phone is well-built and has a promising specs sheet, however, it is literally priced too high. Dimensity 700 5G chipset is powerful but at Rs. 25,000/-, I expect a faster processor instead like Dimensity 800U 5G or even Snapdragon 765G or so on.

Vivo V21e review: selfie master
Source: Technobig English
It is interesting to study the capabilities of middle-class smartphones: there are many functions, everything works well, the performance may not be the flagship, but such devices are not very expensive either. In the case of Vivo V21e, we get a thin case with an interesting pattern while not at the expense of autonomy. Performance “with a margin,” a very high-quality selfie camera, a solid main one, which is suitable for all occasions. Well, a full set of joys like NFC, a customizable shell, and an adequate price for such characteristics.

vivo V21e and V21 5G Review Philippines: Hi-res Selfies
Source: Unbox English
Our review of the vivo v21 5G and V21e in the Philippines show that the brand’s new mid-range phones are targeted squarely at people who prioritize looks as well as selfie and camera performance over things like affordability or performance-per-peso. If you’re looking for a phone that looks great and doesn’t mind not having access to 5G, then you might want to spring for the V21e if you’re looking to save a few bucks. If not, then the V21 5G should be the phone for you.

Only a few smartphones have larger screens.
Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.
