Vivo X21: 5 Best Features

Well, as we already mentioned earlier, the biggest new feature of the Vivo X21 is the in-display fingerprint scanner. Apart from that, there are a few others as well. And for the price, this is a very good phone to buy.

In-display Fingerprint scanner – The Vivo X21 is the first of its kind in India. The fingerprint scanner is placed under the front display, making it super easy for users to unlock the device. It is a little slower than the standard fingerprint scanner, but you will get used to it.
Large display – The phone features a large 6.28-inch Super AMOLED display with 19:9 aspect ratio and HD+ resolution. And yes, you also get a notch at the top and a slim bezel at the bottom. The display covers 90.3 percent of the front of the device.
AI Cameras – Vivo has added some AI features, such as AI HDR and AI Scene recognition, to improve the performance of the dual-camera setup on the X21. With the help of AI Scene recognition, the camera knows the best presets and settings for a photo. There’s an AI beauty mode for the front camera as well.
Face Unlock – As most phones in 2018 are coming with the Face Unlock feature, even Vivo has included it on the X21. It unlocks quite fast, but only uses the front camera. Don’t expect it to work all the time, but it will be helpful at times.
Hi-Fi Audio – Music aficionados will want to give the Vivo X21 a try at least for the audio. The phone features an AK4376A Hi-Fi audio chip that has Deepfield Sound effect technology. This will provide crisp audio via any connected headphones.

Vivo has priced the X21 quite well in India. The smartphone is now available for sale via Flipkart and you can purchase the phone for Rs.35,999. The phone is not a high-end device in terms of its specifications, so it was a wise decision to price it at this range. However, it is still high.
