Vivo’s flagships launched back in October but we feel like the vivo X70 Pro still deserved to have its own video review. The premium midranger lacks some things like an IP rating, Gorilla Glass protection, and stereo speakers, but makes up for it with a versatile camera setup and an impressive screen, both of which are normally found above this price range.
That screen is a 6.56-inch display with curved edges that help keep the size down and easier to handle. That panel has Full HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Aside from having great color accuracy, the X70 Pro also had one of the brightest displays we’ve tested.
Around back, the quad camera setup proved to be great for all-around shooting and there’s even a periscope camera – unheard of for this class of phones. The coating on the rear glass panel gets brownie points for feeling very premium and keeping smudges at bay.
The X70 Pro is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset and performance is quite good considering it isn’t quite the Snapdragon 888 in raw numbers. Funtouch 12 is smooth and snappy too. Battery endurance is also exceptional with its 4,450 mAh battery and Flash Charge fully charges the phone in about an hour.
