Vivo V70 and Vivo V70 Elite: What’s the difference and what’s the same
The biggest difference between the two models is in performance. The standard V70 will run on a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, while the V70 Elite steps up with the more powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset from Qualcomm.
Vivo’s V-series has always leaned heavily on photography, and that continues here. Both phones are confirmed to feature Zeiss-powered rear cameras. The setup includes a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilisation, a 50MP telephoto lens, and an ultrawide camera. On the front, there is also a 50MP selfie camera. You can also expect plenty of AI-assisted camera modes, including India-focused portrait and festive filters.
The V70 series also brings a noticeable design change. Instead of curved edges, the phones now use a flat frame and a square camera module at the back. On the front sits a 6.59-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Vivo claims very slim bezels and high peak brightness, which should help with outdoor visibility. The phones will come in bold colour options like Passion Red and Lemon Yellow for the V70, while the Elite adds Sand Beige and Black to the mix.
Both models pack a 6,500mAh battery with 90W fast charging. They are also rated IP68 and IP69 for dust and water resistance, which is still rare in this price segment.
Expected price
Vivo hasn’t announced the exact launch date yet, but the reveal is expected soon. Early leaks suggest the V70 series will be priced under Rs 55,000 in India, with the Elite variant likely sitting at the higher end.
If you’re looking for a stylish phone with strong cameras and reliable performance, the V70 lineup looks like one to watch.
