EDITORIAL: This is a meaningful update of a very good Edge 60 Pro. 70 Pro became wider but brings better performance, bigger battery and better endurance and a more powerful imaging setup that includes a proper 50MP periscope telephoto. Combined with excellent stock-Android like OS and tons of unique and useful features, 70 Pro is a lovely package, if you can get it in your market.
PROs
excellent non-slippery build, very good (SD 8 Gen 3-like) Dimensity 8500 Extreme performance with UFS 4.1, 36hr endurance from a 6500mAh Si-C battery with fast sub-60min 90W (15W wireless) charging, >1900nits 450ppi 144Hz AMOLED screen with HDR10+, IP69 + Military drop protection, some excellent imaging from a 50MP 24mm OIS main + new 50MP 81mm OIS periscope telephoto + 50MP 12mm ultrawide (all with PDAF), very good 50MP AF selfie, excellent stock-like version of Android with tons of useful features Motorola is known for, excellent desktop replacement functionality
CONs
grew 2.5mm in width (harder to handle one-hand), limited screen refresh frequency range prevents it from outstanding endurance, very good daytime video score is set back by poor nighttime performance, no expandable memory, short OS update policy (3 years), slow USB-C 2.0 port, annoyingly some features are "market dependant" - check before you buy

EDITORIAL: Like other Cheese phone makers, Vivo is going small. This years X vanilla model is 2mm narrower and almost 10mm shorter to put X300 well into the new "compact size" of 72mm or less. The battery is bigger than before and the Zeiss branded camera system Vivos are known for is also upgraded. It now features a new 200MP main and a new 50MP AF selfie. The built is improved as well with silky finish both on the back glass panel and on a (squarish, iPhone-like) aluminium frame.
PROs
