Vivo has been placing the fingerprint scanner on the back of the phone, but now with In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology, Vivo has reduced the bezels to a minimum level and has placed the fingerprint scanner under the display. On the screen, as soon as the user places his thumb, the OLED display gets activated to illuminate the finger. The optical fingerprint sensor under the OLED display recognizes and captures the reflected light from the unique fingerprint pattern which is processed by the sensor for authentication. And in this way, Vivo completely omitted the need for a separate space needed for the fingerprint scanner.

Apart from the in-display fingerprint scanner, the Vivo X21 features a huge 6.28-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED FullView Display with 19:9 aspect ratio and very small side bezels as thin as 1.66mm, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3. This offers a 90.3% screen-to-body ratio for a better viewing experience. There is a notch on top of the display which houses the front-facing camera and sensors, and for that notch, Vivo has customized the FunTouch OS 4.0 build on top of Android 8.1 Oreo to provide notch support and develop an optimized notification bar for a seamless experience. To provide accurate, natural and saturated colors, the Vivo X21 integrates P3 display color management technology and supports a P3 wide color gamut.

On both the front and rear cameras, the Dual Pixel Sensors helps in improving focus speeds and provide better picture clarity due to a larger pixel count. It is also beneficial for photos taken in low lighting conditions. The camera supports various modes like Slow Motion, AI HDR, Timelapse, Portrait Bokeh (Dual Shot), Shot refocus and more.

The Vivo X21 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 octa-core CPU clocked at 2.2GHz, coupled with 6GB RAM and 128GB onboard storage.
