The first and the most important detail is that your itinerary is eligible if the immediate points before and after mainland China are in two different countries. Having such a long layover is fine and acceptable. If you want to exit the airport this is never guranteed because this is not an inherent passenger right. In any case, your chance to be allowed to exit the airport are very good based on your very long layover. So, when you land in Shenzhen, before the immigration, you will approach 24/144 hour visa free transit counter where you will apply for a temporary entry Permit by presenting your flight tickets and your hotel booking confirmation if you plan to stay in a hotel. After a short check you will receive a temporary entry permit and after that you will head to the immigration and finally to the city to have your time on your own. I wish you a success in obtaining a permit. In case if you want to be 100% certain that you will be allowed to exit the airport building, then only a visa obtained in advance can guarantee something like that.
