This article will be all about the design and the specification of both the phones, along with the pricing for China.

VIVO X21 – DESIGN AND SPECIFICATIONS

The Vivo X21 features a similar design as the Oppo R15 from the front as it has the same edge-to-edge display with a notch on top. The bottom bezel seems a bit thinner than that of Oppo R15, and this results in an overall screen-to-body ratio of over 90.3%. It is really interesting to see that not just the design is similar to the R15 but also the screen size (6.28-inch). It might not be something to get surprised at since Oppo, Vivo and OnePlus are all owned by the same company – BBK Electronics.

The design changes from the rear as the X21 has a vertical dual camera setup. This makes the phone looks very similar to the iPhone X that has the same design. The phone has an all metal design with glass back, which, again, is similar to the Oppo R15. The phone has a USB 2.0 port, and the headphone jack is still there.
