The front of the Vivo X70 Pro has a 6.56-inch AMOLED display with 120 Hz and a resolution of 2,376 x 1,080. Internally, it uses the Samsung Exynos 1080 SoC which is connected to at least 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The Chinese version in particular uses the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 SoC.
For the power supply, the X70 Pro relies on a 4,450 mAh battery with 44 W wired charging support. It also includes a rear quad camera array with 50 MP primary, 8 MP periscope, 12 MP portrait, and 12 MP ultra-wide angle lenses. A 32 MP sensor is included in the front.
