When consuming HDR content, this screen will brighten up to 5000 nits at peak brightness. In harsh sunlight conditions, this panel will brighten up to 1500 nits. This panel will not have any well-known protection (like Gorilla Glass).

Camera

This Vivo S21 will have a dual rear and one front camera setup. Those cameras are a 50MP rear main camera, a 50MP ultrawide, and a 50MP front camera.

Performance

Android 15 and OriginOS 5 will run on the operating system. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 will be used as the chipset. It is an Octa-core chip based on 4-nanometer fabrication. These eight cores are divided into 1 core 2.63 GHz Cortex A715, 3 cores 2.4 GHz Cortex A715, and 4 cores 1.8 GHz Cortex A510. The Adreno 720 is used as the GPU for this chip. This SoC can hit more than 0.8 million Antutu scores. This chip can run Android games with medium graphics.
