MANILA, Philippines — Whether it’s for Christmas, birthday, graduation or simply a “You deserve this” moment, choosing a gift can feel overwhelming.

You—and the receiver, for sure—want something useful, long-lasting and stylish... and that makes vivo Y21d stand out as a year-round gift pick.

It’s durable and designed for real everyday Filipino life, and comes at a very reasonable price tag—the kind of phone that doesn’t look “budget” but performs like a reliable daily partner.

The Y21d features IP69 toughness, a huge 6500mAh battery and a sharp 50MP camera, plus a bonus that’s hard to find in phones below P8,000—an Underwater Photography Mode, perfect for your loved ones who live for beach trips.

Here’s why the Y21d works for anyone on your gift list:

1. For students who need a dedicated assistant

Phones are usually not allowed inside the classroom, but because of online classes and endless group chats, students need a phone for real. The Y21d’s 6500mAh battery is built exactly for this; add to that a storage of up to 256GB storage (expandable up to 2TB) to handle school files, videos and apps with ease.

2. For on-the-go workers

The IP69 durability means the phone can hold up against rain, dust and rough outdoor conditions. Wet hands and sudden drizzles won’t bother you and this phone. And this makes it perfect for riders, field workers and anyone who’s always on the road.

3. For parents busy with the household

The parentals juggle everything, and they badly need a phone that survives spills and accidental drops, especially when there’s a toddler who often grabs things quickly. The Y21d can be used even with wet hands and is tough enough for everyday bumps.

4. For your tita or tito who always drops their phone

We all know one, oops. The Y21d comes with SGS 5-star drop resistance and military-grade protection—a non-negotiable for someone who has had more broken screens than birthdays.

5. For young professionals who love aesthetic gadgets

Quad-curved back, premium feel and classy colors (Lavender Purple and Glowing Black)—doesn’t Y21d look far pricier than it is? It’s a great day-to-night accessory for office or casual use.

6. For content creators on a budget

The 50MP main camera, clear display and 400% dual speakers make the Y21d a great tool for TikTokers, reels creators or anyone who wants awesome shots without spending on flagship-phone prices.

7. For anyone who wants a phone that lasts all day

Everyone complains about charging all the time, and the Y21d solves this issue. The 6500mAh battery + 44W fast charging means hours of streaming, scrolling and music!

A gift that goes beyond the occasion

No matter who you’re gifting—student, worker, tita, parent or creator—the vivo Y21d checks all the boxes: durable, long-lasting, stylish and easy to use. And if they ever find themselves by the pool or beach, that extra Underwater Photography Mode is a fun bonus they’ll love.

A phone that works hard every day and lasts for years? The Y21d is the kind of gift anyone would be happy to receive, any time of the year.

Priced starting at P6,999 (4GB + 128Gb) and P8,999 (6GB + 256GB). The vivo Y21d is available at all vivo concept stores, kiosks, authorized dealers and online platforms on vivo e-store, Shopee, Lazada and TikTok Shop.
