1. Introduction and pictures
Blue Factory has an absolute say in the matter of taking pictures with mobile phones. This company has focused on taking pictures since its inception.
Soft light dual-camera, clear backlight, and your beauty… These familiar slogans, coupled with the bombardment of advertisements in its huge offline experience store, have completely established vivo as a camera phone, especially for selfies. Good-looking impression.
However, just relying on the beauty algorithm can no longer satisfy the increasingly inward-looking mobile phone industry. Customized CMOS and R&D teams must be provided, and publicity points must be provided. For example, the cooperation between Huawei and Leica can be said to be the most successful in the mobile phone industry. The image promotion of the company is deeply bound to the camera brand, and it has gradually become another way for domestic mobile phones to take pictures.
vivo chose Zeiss, and in addition to the camera’s logo, there are also T* coating certified ultra-high transparent glass lenses, which were launched last year with the X60 series. Today, let’s talk about the X70 Pro that vivo and Zeiss have further cooperated with. We already have the same series of X70 Pro+ on this site before, and the imaging quality is amazing. Let’s see if the X70 Pro, which is a big cup, can continue the photo effect of the super cup except for the different configurations. .
vivo X70 Pro is available in three colors: Nebula/Monologue/To Black. This is the monologue in my hand, and only the 12+256GB top version is available.

The front of the vivo X70 Pro uses a centered hole-digging screen with a micro-surface shape, which is no different from the current mainstream flagships. The shape has always been the main focus of vivo. The appearance of the new phone has always been good, especially the X series, the shape design tends to be stable , there is no radical form, which is in line with its positioning. As for the currently mentioned under-screen camera solution, it is expected to be applied to its NEX series.

In terms of parameters, the screen size is a 6.56-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2376 × 1080. It supports a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. This is the main difference from the super cup. The screen quality is slightly weaker than the super cup.
However, a 120Hz 1080P screen is currently the mainstream parameter, and the positioning of the machine is biased towards imaging capabilities. If you want to pursue higher screen quality, the super-sized cup is more suitable.

One thing to say, the appearance of the blue factory in the past two years is definitely in the forefront. It looks good and is not lacking in sophistication. The back cover of the X70 Pro is made of AG frosted glass material. The body weight of 185g is moderate. texture.
The top and bottom of the fuselage are designed with ridges, and the small design is added to the details, which helps to improve the overall delicacy.
And the real phone can really be used. In terms of appearance design and body texture, the blue factory is worth learning from other domestic manufacturers, and it can be clearly perceived that this is a mobile phone worth three or four thousand yuan.

2. System and Highlights
vivo X70 Pro runs OriginOS 1.0 based on Android 11. This UI has been said many times before. Since there is no major version update yet, I won’t say much this time. Those who are interested can search for other vivo or iQOO on this site. Mobile phone reviews.
The desktop has an icon called lens bag, which can open a specified lens, such as telephoto or ultra-wide angle, and can customize functions, such as night scene, motion capture, etc., which is a shortcut to open the camera, but adds Some sense of ceremony.
Briefly talk about the functions created by the X70 Pro for images, in addition to common filters, time-lapse photography, document correction, slow motion, etc., there are also motion tracking, including human eye tracking, human body tracking, object tracking, etc. In addition The camera will automatically turn on the male beauty adaptation.
In addition to imaging capabilities, post-processing is also very important. The X70 Pro has a lot of built-in photo processing functions. In addition to the common beauty, photo editing, AI matting, and advanced editing, you can adjust the angle of view and the degree of blur. There is no need to download the third-party software for adjustment again, and the basic system that comes with it can meet the requirements.
3. Performance and Gaming
In terms of core configuration, the vivo X70 Pro is equipped with the Exynos 1080 processor, which is the same as the previous generation. It is built with a 5nm process. The CPU consists of one 2.8GHz A78 super core, three A78 large cores, and four A55 small cores. The GPU integrates Mali-G78 MP10, and its performance is similar to that of the Dimensity 1200. At the same time, it is equipped with LPDDR5+UFS 3.1 flash memory and supports up to 4GB memory fusion. Let’s take a look at the AnTuTu benchmark.
After the actual test, the AnTuTu score of the vivo X70 Pro is 683165. The CPU and GPU scores are not much different from those of the model equipped with the Dimensity 1200, indicating that the absolute performance difference between the two is not large. At present, this chip is only vivo. Carrying it is a unique advantage.
In terms of storage, the machine scored 71175, which is the normal read speed of UFS 3.1 flash memory, of which the sequential write speed is 1944MB/s and the sequential write speed is 1263.NB/s.
Next, let’s look at its game performance. It uses superconducting zero-sensing water cooling for heat dissipation. The official name is this, but the specific material is not pointed out. It is expected to be composed of some heat dissipation materials such as copper foil and VC liquid cooling. In addition, the built-in V1 The chip is not only used to take pictures, but also supports MEMC frame rate enhancement. Let’s take a look at its frame rate performance.
– “Glory of the King”
Enable the highest image quality (90fps) supported by vivo X70 Pro
game fps
It is rather strange that vivo X70 Pro does not support the 90-frame mode of “Honor of Kings”. The specific reason is not clear. It is expected to be related to the game, because it is only a performance requirement. The aspect is completely stable to 60fps, and there is basically no lag during the period.
——”Peace Elite”
Enable the highest image quality (60fps) supported by vivo X70 Pro
game fps
“Peace Elite” also supports up to 60 frames. The machine does not seem to pay attention to the game. Popular games basically do not have a high frame rate, but the performance is stable. The situation of dropped frames belongs to the switching interface and performs normally.
4. Video and photography
The rear lens is another difference between the machine and the super cup. The X70 Pro is a 50-megapixel micro-cloud platform main camera (IMX766V) + 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle main camera (116°) + 12-megapixel portrait camera + 8 million pixels Periscope camera (OIS, 5x optical zoom).
Then there is the main Zeiss coating, which is all Zeiss optical lenses composed of Zeiss T* coating certification, and provides Zeiss texture portrait, Zeiss natural color, professional film mode, etc. And it’s not just as simple as sticking a logo, it is the only one in the world that uses ALD coating technology, Android’s first IRCF pigment spin coating technology, and the first dual low-reflection coating.
So what exactly is it good for? According to the official introduction and actual use, some conclusions are drawn. In fact, it is mainly reflected in the night scene. It can further suppress the high light source, greatly reduce the halo, and then the picture noise is almost invisible, so the purity has been improved and it looks clean.
Then there is the accurate color reproduction, which left the deepest impression on me. This is only useless, it depends on the performance of the proofs.
In addition, the X70 Pro has a built-in vivo self-developed V1 chip (not supported by the X70), which is a chip responsible for imaging, providing NR intelligent noise reduction, MEMC intelligent frame insertion, and the power consumption reduction of related algorithms. Compared with the CPU, it faces complex calculations. The energy efficiency ratio has a theoretical improvement of 100 times. Especially when shooting night scenes and videos, the computing efficiency is improved.
The most obvious benefit of carrying an image chip alone is to reduce power consumption. Although the SoC integrates an ISP processor, it requires a certain amount of power consumption through the CPU and algorithms, and the separate chip is specially responsible for taking pictures, which is equivalent to specializing in taking pictures. A service window was set up.
Therefore, the X70 Pro equipped with the V1 chip reduces power consumption and CPU algorithm, and achieves real-time preview of some night scenes, that is, what you see is what you shoot in the mobile phone viewfinder. , causing more load.
That’s all for the video introduction, the stone of jade and porcelain, try it with diamond, let’s see the actual performance.
1. Daytime proofs
Roadside buildings (heavy haze in the morning shooting, the main camera defaults to 12 million pixels f/1.8)
Forest (default 12MP f/1.8 for the main camera)
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 for the main camera)
Architecture (2x zoom main camera cropped 12MP f/2)
Architecture (5x zoom, 8MP telephoto f/3.4)

Indoor hanging lamp (default 12 megapixel f/1.8 for the main camera)
Main camera macro (default 12MP f/1.8 for main camera)
Macro mode (default 12-megapixel f/2.2 for the main camera)
In the daytime scene, the X70 Pro uses the main camera for most of the scenes. For example, the 2x zoom is still the main camera crop, and when the zoom is above 5x, it starts to switch to the 8-megapixel telephoto. This method is very clever. Generally speaking, 2x zoom is used. It can basically meet the needs of use, and can restore more details. Coupled with the algorithm adjustment, even the cropping can be better than the 8-megapixel look and feel, while maintaining the unity of the main camera style.
In terms of macro, the machine is not specially equipped with a macro lens, but uses the main camera to restore, which is expected to be the effect of cropping, and the lines on the paper can be clearly seen, even without a macro lens.
In fact, the daytime scene can’t play much of the capabilities of the Zeiss optical lens or V1 chip. At most, it has filter bonuses to see its night scene performance.
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2564 for main camera)
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2275 for main camera)
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2168 for main camera)
Street lights and leaves (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2490 for the main camera)
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-763 for main camera)
Street sign (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2628 for the main camera)
Architecture (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-665 for main camera)
Trees (manually lower the exposure, the main camera defaults to 12 megapixels f/1.8 ISO-1839)
Trees (default 12MP f/1.8 ISO-2627 for the main camera)
The night scene is really amazing. The addition of the double low-reflection coating suppresses the high light sources at night, such as street lights and other scenes. There is basically no halo and ghosting. At the same time, the noise of the picture is basically invisible, which also makes the imaging look better. clean.
In particular, the color reproduction is particularly accurate. Many mobile phones reviewed before encountering the light source of high-rise buildings often have color casts, even some flagship flagships that focus on images, but the X70 Pro completely restores the original color, and It’s not easy to do this without having to lower the exposure.
This time, there is no proof of the super night scene, because the normal mode of the phone is not too different from the night scene. It is expected that the mobile phone will automatically recognize the night scene, and then synthesize it through an algorithm, so there is no need to turn on the night scene mode, but the mobile phone itself has a polar night mode, which requires It takes time to collect light sources to improve the brightness of the picture, which we have seen in previous generations.
It can be seen that the vivo is indeed not as simple as adding a Zeiss logo, and the optimization of the image has really worked hard.
5. Battery life and charging
The vivo X70 Pro has a built-in 4450mAh battery, and the capacity is not large. It should be not equipped with a larger battery to save the weight of the body. How is the battery life? Continue to use the AnTuTu stress test function to perform the super power consumption test.
Stress test is a built-in function of AnTuTu Review. It tests the stability of device performance by performing high-load operations. It requires a lot of calculations by the CPU, so the power consumption is larger than that of video and daily use.
In the super power consumption test, the vivo X70 Pro lasted for 175 minutes. This time is not long. It can only be said that it is normal. It is basically no problem to meet the light one-day use. However, after a period of use, the daily standby power consumption is not much. It is because the power consumption is higher when the CPU is fully loaded, which means that if you are playing games, it consumes more power than other models.
Let’s look at the battery life estimate, because this result is obtained when the CPU is always fully loaded, considering our daily use and screen time, so this data needs to be converted into a multiple, and it is concluded that the X70 Pro can have 6 hours of continuous use time.
Then there is charging. The vivo X70 Pro is equipped with a 44W wired fast charge. Let’s see its performance.
After the actual test, the vivo X70 Pro took 67 minutes to charge to 100%, of which 25% was charged in 10 minutes. In today’s environment of 100W fast charging, this speed seems a bit slow, but think about it, it is the main image. Mobile phones, not much to say, I hope that the charging and battery life will be improved in the future.
6. Summary
The vivo X70 Pro is a model that focuses on imaging, especially in night scenes. Its excellent performance is impressive. Among all mobile phones, its imaging capabilities are definitely at the forefront, which strengthens the blue factory’s moat in the imaging field.
Then there is the continuation of the exquisite shape as always. The whole body is very textured. After all, the design of this piece of vivo rarely loses to competing products from friends and merchants. The high face value of the brand has inherited the design language of the blue factory for many years.
In terms of performance, it can only be said that it is enough. I don’t know why the X70 Pro continues to be equipped with Exynos 1080. Although it is also built with 5nm process, I personally think it is better to use Snapdragon 870. At least the game performance is better, after all, the price is there.
The charging and battery life are slightly weak. As mentioned earlier, vivo seems to focus on imaging capabilities, but ignores the comprehensive configuration of the large cup. It would be better if the 55W charging of the super cup could be decentralised.
Nonetheless, it can be predicted that X70 Pro sales must be considerable, why? Because it really understands the psychology of users too much, this upgrade is quite sincere to the audience of vivo, especially the imaging ability has risen again, and it continues to maintain a high value. It must be compared with some high cost performance or high performance. model, it is not necessary.
Moreover, the positioning of the X series is like this, and it is clearly different from the NEX series. The former has a high-value appearance and stunning imaging capabilities, while the latter is a collection of high-precision technology. Vivo’s control of the series is really quite accurate.
