The main difference lies in the cameras, on which Vivo staked. Vivo X70 is more simple: a 40 main sensor, a 12 MP ultra-wide lens and 12 telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. Vivo X70 Pro has four modules: 50  sensor, 12 MP "wide angle", 12 MP telephoto lens and 8 MP periscope with 5x optical zoom. Both are equipped with quality optics from the German company Zeiss.
