Many inquiries have been sent to Mytour's mailbox, including one from Cường, eager to choose a Vivo phone for its excellent price point and design. He seeks advice on whether the Vivo V9 or V11i is the smarter choice at the moment.
Design differences between the Vivo V9 and V11i
Since the iPhone X's debut, the 'notch' trend has been adopted by many smartphones, including the Vivo V9 with its sleek design and edge-to-edge screen, though it retains a noticeable notch area.

The newly launched Vivo V11i closely mirrors the V9 in design but features a more refined 'notch', adopting a Halo Fullview (waterdrop screen) style. This change offers a more visually pleasing front face and a more authentic edge-to-edge feel.
The Vivo V11i doesn't revolutionize design over the Vivo V9, but its Halo Fullview display offers a fresh twist for those tired of the 'notch' trend.
