Comparison review
The Xperia 1 III has a general score of 93.3, which is better than the vivo X70 Pro's global score of 78.3. Even being the best cellphone in our current comparison, we must note that it's also a little bit thicker and a bit heavier. Both of these phones use the same Android 11 OS (operating system), so you shouldn't see any difference in that aspect.
The Xperia 1 III counts with a better looking screen than vivo X70 Pro, because although it has a bit smaller screen, it also counts with a lot higher 1644 x 3840 resolution and a much greater amount of pixels per inch in the display. The Sony Xperia 1 III counts with much more memory to store more apps and games than vivo X70 Pro, and although they both have exactly the same 256 GB internal memory, the Sony Xperia 1 III also has a SD card slot that holds up to 1 TB.
Vivo X70 Pro counts with just a bit better hardware performance than Xperia 1 III. They have 12 GB of RAM memory and a Octa-Core CPU. The vivo X70 Pro shoots better pictures and videos than Xperia 1 III, because although it has slower 60 fps video frame rate, and they both have a same size diafragm aperture and the same (4K) video quality, the vivo X70 Pro also counts with a larger back camera sensor which provides a better image and video quality and a lot more mega-pixels camera.
Vivo X70 Pro and Sony Xperia 1 III feature extremely similar batteries duration, although the Sony Xperia 1 III also has 4500mAh of battery capacity.
