The Vivo X70 Pro India launch is finally here — Vivo confirmed a virtual event on September 30, 2021 at 12 noon IST, bringing the Vivo X70 Pro and Vivo X70 Pro+ to Indian buyers for the first time, both armed with ZEISS T Coating and Ultra-Sensing Gimbal cameras.
Vivo X70 Pro India Launch: Date, Time, and Where to Watch
Vivo hosted a live virtual event on September 30, 2021 at 12 noon IST. The stream was available on Vivo's official social media platforms. The X70 series had already debuted in China earlier in September 2021, where three models — Vivo X70, Vivo X70 Pro, and Vivo X70 Pro+ — were announced. India received only the Pro and Pro+ variants at launch.
The handsets come in three colour options: White, Black, and Nebula Gradient.

Expected Price in India
Vivo had not announced official Indian prices ahead of the September 30 launch event. Based on Chinese market pricing — Vivo X70 at 3,699 Yuan (approx. Rs 42,187), Vivo X70 Pro at 4,299 Yuan (approx. Rs 49,030), and Vivo X70 Pro+ at 5,500 Yuan (approx. Rs 62,728) — industry watchers expected Indian price tags in a similar range. The confirmed prices were revealed only at the live event.
Why the Vivo X70 Pro Stands Out
The X70 Pro's MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset paired with a 50MP quad-camera gimbal system places it firmly in the upper-mid-range tier, while the X70 Pro+ escalates the proposition significantly. As the world's first smartphone with the Snapdragon 888 Plus processor, the Pro+ targets performance enthusiasts who also want flagship optics — four rear sensors (48MP, 50MP, 12MP, and 8MP) all processed through ZEISS-certified glass.
The 120Hz AMOLED panel on the Pro+ and 55W fast charging are compelling additions at its expected price point. For anyone tracking the latest in premium phone launches, the X70 Pro series marks a meaningful step forward for Vivo's flagship lineup in India.
