Pros and Cons

vivo X70 Pro

Strengths

The Vivo X70 Pro has a premium and rather compact design, making it easy to wield.
It features an excellent battery life, with an endurance rating of 123 hours.
The phone's curved AMOLED screen is great, with fast refresh rate and HDR10+ support.
The camera setup is impressive for a mid-ranger, featuring a gimbal stabilized 50MP main cam and two telephotos.
Low light photos from the main cam are really good, with impressive dynamic range and contrast.
The phone's price offers great value for its features, especially when it comes to still photography.

Weaknesses

The Vivo X70 Pro doesn't have waterproofing, unlike the pro plus model which is IP68 rated.
It lacks stereo speakers, with a single speaker that earns only a 'good' score on loudness chart.
The phone uses a Mediatek Dimensity C1200 chipset, rather than a flagship-grade Snapdragon 888.
Video recording quality is disappointing, even at 4K resolution and 60fps.
Selfies from the 32MP front-facing cam are soft and noisy.
Night mode doesn't provide much benefit for the telephoto cameras, and can even make photos less sharp.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G

Strengths

A value-packed Xiaomi mid-ranger that covers all the basics quite well
Expandable storage up to 1TB, which is not easy to find nowadays
A headphone jack, which many phones no longer have

Support for 45W charging, which can charge the phone from 0 to 42% in half an hour
Decent overall performance from the Mediatek Helio G100 Ultra chipset
A reliable under-display optical fingerprint reader

Weaknesses

A lower IP64 rating against splashes of water compared to the 5G model's IP68 rating
A less sharp display with a lower 1080p resolution and no support for HDR video content or 12bit color
No thermal management issues, but gaming performance is a bit of a struggle
Limited to 1080p video capture due to the Helio G100 chipset
The ultra-wide camera has average detail and poor contrast at night
Close-up shots from the macro camera have plenty of noise and softness

vivo X70 Pro

The Vivo X70 Pro is a premium mid-ranger that offers impressive camera capabilities, a nice display, and excellent battery life. The phone's design feels compact and lightweight, with a frosted glass-like finish on the back. However, it lacks waterproofing and has only a single speaker compared to the flagship model. The 6.56-inch AMOLED display is curved and features a fast 120Hz refresh rate, making for smooth scrolling and swiping experience. The screen also supports HDR10+ and content looks great with excellent color accuracy. The phone's battery life is impressive, with an endurance rating of 123 hours, outlasting the flagship model. One of the standout features of the Vivo X70 Pro is its camera setup. It has a gimbal-stabilized 50MP main camera, two telephotos (12MP and 8MP), and a 12MP ultra-wide-angle camera. The phone's camera performance is impressive, with great details and punchy colors in both bright and low-light conditions. However, the Vivo X70 Pro falls short in some areas, such as audio quality, which lacks depth and bass. Additionally, the chipset is not flagship-grade, but still provides high-level performance.

The Vivo X70 Pro may not be perfect, but its strengths in design, display, and camera capabilities make it worth considering for those who prioritize these aspects over other features.
