Summary
- The Realme C21 and vivo Y20g both feature a similar build quality with glass fronts and plastic backs, but the Y20g is slightly lighter and thinner.
- Their displays are comparable, with both offering 6.5-inch IPS LCD panels at 720 x 1600 resolution and 60Hz refresh rates.
- In terms of performance, the Y20g is equipped with the more powerful Mediatek Helio G80 chipset compared to the G35 in the C21, which may result in better multitasking and gaming capabilities.
- Camera specifications are nearly identical, though the Y20g has a higher resolution 8 MP selfie camera versus the 5 MP on the C21.
- Both devices house a 5000 mAh battery, but the Y20g supports faster 18W charging compared to the C21's 10W.
