vivo India on Thursday unveiled its latest Y-series smartphones — the Y21 5G and Y11 5G — focusing on long-lasting battery performance and enhanced durability for everyday users. Both devices feature a 6500mAh battery designed to support extended usage, including up to 48.4 hours of video playback and 80 hours of music. The smartphones are powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, offering stable 5G connectivity with dual SIM support. Running on OriginOS 6 based on Android 16, the devices include AI-powered features such as AI Photo Enhance and Google Gemini integration for improved productivity.

In terms of durability, both models come with IP65 rating, SGS 5-star drop resistance certification, and military-grade shock resistance. They sport a 6.74-inch HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and brightness up to 1200 nits. The Y21 5G is priced between Rs 18,999 and Rs 22,999, while the Y11 5G starts at Rs 14,999. Both are available via vivo’s e-store, Flipkart, and offline retail outlets, along with launch offers including cashback, zero down payment options, and bundled OTT benefits.

In Kolkata, one can expect strong traction for these models, particularly due to their high battery capacity and competitive pricing. With rising demand for durable, affordable 5G smartphones in eastern India, vivo’s new launches are likely to appeal to both urban and semi-urban consumers seeking reliability and long battery life.
