vivo Y21d: Built for Every Storm

When the rain pours, life doesn’t stop for Filipinos — it simply adapts. Streets turn into rivers, umbrellas bloom like flowers, and people continue to push forward, armed with determination and, often, a phone wrapped in plastic. But this season, vivo introduces a companion that doesn’t just survive the storm — it thrives in it. Meet the vivo Y21d, the all-weather smartphone built to withstand the country’s toughest days, now available nationwide starting at ₱6,999.

In a year that has already seen 16 tropical cyclones, including Typhoon Matmo (Paolo), staying connected through power outages and flooded commutes has been no small feat. The vivo Y21d was designed exactly for these moments — when reliability isn’t a luxury, but a lifeline.

Rain-Proof, Life-Proof

The Y21d isn’t afraid of the elements. Carrying IP68, IP69, and IP69+ certifications, it’s among the few smartphones tested to endure not just splashes, but direct water pressure and full submersion. That means it can survive being caught in a downpour — or even dropped in a puddle — and keep working flawlessly.

Its Wet Hand Touch feature keeps the screen responsive even when your fingers are drenched, while the One-Tap Water Ejection clears the speaker of moisture in seconds. No more rice bowls or frantic shakes — vivo built this one to take care of itself.

Ready for Impact

Beyond water, the Y21d is also built for the bumps of daily life. It has passed MIL-STD 810H military-grade tests and earned the SGS Gold Five-Star certification, proving its durability against drops, pressure, and rough handling.

Reinforced by dual ion-strengthened Guardian Glass and a cushioned frame, the Y21d shrugs off scratches and cracks with ease. vivo’s internal stress tests show it can survive 42,000 small drops without losing functionality — a feat that makes it one of the most durable smartphones in its class.

Power That Lasts as Long as You Do

Inside, a 6,500mAh battery powers the phone through long commutes and stormy nights. Even after 1,600 full charge cycles, it maintains over 80% of its original capacity — roughly equivalent to five years of regular use.

And when it’s time to recharge, 44W FlashCharge gets you back on track quickly, while 29-Dimension Security Protection ensures each charge is fast, cool, and safe.

A Smartphone for the Filipino Spirit

The vivo Y21d isn’t just about specs — it’s a salute to resilience. For every worker braving the rain, every student navigating flooded streets, and every parent keeping loved ones updated during a storm, this phone stands as a trusted companion.

It’s tough, practical, and intelligently designed for a nation that never quits — rain or shine.

The vivo Y21d is now available for ₱6,999 at all vivo stores, kiosks, authorized dealers, and online via the vivo e-store and Shopee, where it’s offered for as low as ₱5,669 from October 9–16, 2025.
