Vivo X21 Goes Official With Android 8.1 Oreo and In-Display Fingerprint Scanner

It’s been that kind of a day for BBK Electronics-owned brands. Hours after Oppo launching its flagship smartphones, Vivo has now announced two new smartphones- Vivo X21 and Vivo X21 UD. Both the devices feature exactly similar specifications, minus the presence of in-display fingerprint scanner on the X21 UD variant. Also, the Vivo X21 sports a notch at the top of the display, much like several other smartphones launching these days. With the Vivo X21, the company is introducing its own AI assistant dubbed Jivi AI, and the phone also uses Snapdragon 660 AIE SoC to take care of the advanced Artificial Intelligence features.
