Like it or not, all modern phones get compared to the iPhone 17 Pro. Apple’s incredible popularity is due not just to the camera system alone, but the ease of use, the software polish and the long software support.
Vivo might not have all of that, but it bets the bank on the absolute cutting edge of smartphone camera technology, coupled with software processing that values color fidelity over a trendy look.

There are a few things that stand out in this spec sheet. For the main camera, Vivo goes with a 35mm lens, which is considered the gold standard for street photography and a much more pleasing focal length for people photography. The iPhone goes with a standard 24mm lens, which is much wider and better suited for landscape shots as it just captures more in frame. One unequivocal advantage of the Vivo, however, is the nearly 30% physically larger sensor that typically translates to better image quality and lower noise levels at night.
But the difference in sensor size is even more noticeable for the ultra-wide and telephoto camera, where the Vivo uses nearly 3x bigger sensors. That is an absolutely massive difference!
