Both Vivo midrange phones — Y95 and V11i — offer almost the same design and features. But if you’re looking for performance between the two, one, clearly, is the winner.

Vivo V11i
The design language basically makes it look like a twin phone complete with the teardrop notch — V11i sporting a slightly smaller notch. Up front shows the difference in the display with a crisper 1080p on the V11i.
Performance for the dual main camera is a toss-up here but the selfie experience will favor the V11i, again, thanks to its 25MP sensor capable of wide-angle shots.
Whether you like fast charging or longer battery life is up to you. The V11i comes with 3315mAh battery complete with 18W fast charging. But the Y95 gets you a longer runtime with its massive 4030mAh.
While both come with its own audio jack, if you’re planning to use wireless headphones, you might experience a better connection with the Y95’s latest Bluetooth 5.0 version.
As for the performance, expect higher frame rates when playing games on the V11i thanks to the Helio P60 SoC. Naysayers might not appreciate a SoC coming from MediaTek, but for this comparison, it’s up against an entry-level Snapdragon 439 sporting 6 low-power cores and only 2 high-power cores.
