OnePlus does not want compromises and it recently came up with one of the most stunning flagships of the year if we exclude the absence of water resistance. We are referring to the OnePlus 10 Pro, a device that reconfirms the partnership with Hasselblad and hits the shelves with top-tier specifications. But it will have a lot of competition this year, that is the reason why we are comparing it with all the best flagships out there. After comparing it to the iQOO 9 Pro, this is a comparison between the OnePlus 10 Pro and the main Vivo flagship: the Vivo X70 Pro+. Is the new OnePlus flagship able to compete with the most advanced Vivo phone to date? This comparison will let you find out.

Design

Both the companies paid a lot of attention to the design of their latest flagships. The Vivo X70 Pro+ comes with big dimensions but also higher build quality. There are different color options to choose from, including one with different materials. You can choose the glass back or the leather variant which is definitely one of the most impressive phones aesthetically. Further, unlike the OnePlus 10 Pro, it is waterproof and dustproof with the IP68 certification. I personally prefer the leather variant of the Vivo X70 Pro Plus to the OnePlus 10 Pro. Which one would you choose?

 

Display

The specifications of the two panels are very similar, at least on the paper. The only advantage of the OnePlus 10 Pro is the so-called LTPO 2.0 technology which lowers the energy consumption coming from the panel. But for the rest, these devices do not differ too much. They have two AMOLED panels with a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440p, up to one billion colors, a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, and the HDR10+ certification, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. Both the phones feature great stereo speakers for an awesome audio experience.

 

Specs & Software

OnePlus 10 Pro is able to provide higher performance than Vivo X70 Pro Plus thanks to its superior chipset: the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform is actually the best Qualcomm SoC. It is built at 4 nm and it runs at a max frequency of 3 GHz; on the OnePlus 10 Pro, it is paired with up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of internal storage (UFS 3.1). You can get more internal storage with the Vivo X70 Pro Plus (up to 512 GB) and the same amount of RAM, but the processor is inferior: we are talking about the Snapdragon 888 Plus, a slight upgrade of the Snapdragon 888, currently the best Qualcomm chipset after the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. While the OnePlus flagship ships with Android 12, the Vivo one runs Android 11 out of the box, but it can be updated.

 

Camera

The most advanced camera phone of this comparison is the Vivo X70 Pro Plus, which is also one of the most impressive camera phones out there and has nothing to envy to Samsung and Apple flagships. It has a 50 MP main sensor with a bright f/1.6 focal aperture and gimbal OIS, an 8 MP periscope camera with 5x optical zoom, a 12 MP telephoto sensor for portraits with 2x optical zoom, and a 48 MP ultrawide camera with OIS. The cameras include Zeiss optics and support 8K video recording. The OnePlus 10 Pro is still an amazing camera phone, but it can not compete with the Vivo X70 Pro Plus.

 

Battery

The OnePlus 10 Pro wins the battery life comparison thanks to its bigger 5000 mAh battery and more efficient components (LTPO 2.0 display and 4 nm chipset). It even features a faster wired charging technology (80W).

 

Price

The starting price of the Vivo X70 Pro+ in China roughly translates into €720/$825, while the OnePlus 10 Pro starts from €650/$745. While the OnePlus flagship provides a superior chipset and a bigger battery, I personally believe that the Vivo X70 Pro Plus is a more interesting device due to its amazing cameras including a periscope sensor and a waterproof body. If you want a better camera phone, go for the X70 Pro Plus, while the OP10 Pro represents a better option for gamers and power users.
