Vivo will launch its X70 series of smartphones on September 30 in India, the company has confirmed on its official website. Vivo launched the X70 series in China on September 9 in three variants -- Vivo X70, Vivo X70 Pro, and Vivo X70 Pro+. The India-specific smartphones are likely to have the same features and specifications as the Chinese models. On the microsite, the company teased about the launch of the Vivo X70 Pro+ 5G, powered by Zeiss optics and gimbal camera.

Features and specifications

The Chinese versions of Vivo X70 and Vivo X70 pro have similar features, each with a 6.56-inch full HD+ AMOLED display. The X70 comes with a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor with 12GB RAM and 256GB onboard storage, while the X70 Pro has a Exynos 1080 processor with 12GB RAM and 512GB onboard storage.

The two differ in terms of their cameras. The X70 has a triple rear camera with a 40MP primary shooter, a 12 MP ultra-wide-angle sensor and a 12MP portrait camera. Apart from this, the smartphone sports a selfie camera of 32MP. The device is backed by a 4,400mAh battery with 44W Flash Charge fast charging mechanism.

X70 Pro has quad rear camera – a 50MP primary sensor, two 12MP cameras similar to the X70, and an 8MP periscope lens. It too has a 32MP selfie shooter. The new devices come with 4,450mAh battery and 44W Flash Charge fast charging support.

The Vivo X70 Pro+ sports a 6.78-inch Ultra HD+ (1,440×3,200 pixels) AMOLED display. This has a 20:9 aspect ratio and support for 120Hz refresh rate.

The main cameras have Zeiss optics, Zeiss T* lens coating, dual-LED dual-tone flash, panorama, pixel shift and HDR features.
