Vivo V70 and Vivo V70 Elite 5G smartphones are set to launch in India soon, as their specifications, price and other key details have been tipped online.
Vivo is gearing up to expand its popular camera-centric V-series smartphone lineup in India with the launch of two new models, the Vivo V70 and the Vivo V70 Elite. This is the first time the company plans to introduce an Elite variant under the V-series, which creates a clear separation between the standard and higher-tier models. Ahead of the launch, the company has revealed several details of the upcoming devices, so let’s take a look at what may be coming next.
Vivo V70 and Vivo V70 Elite: Price and launch Window in India (Expected)
According to the Android Headline report, the Vivo V70 Elite price in India could begin below Rs. 50,000. This places the device slightly below Vivo’s X200T in the company’s current lineup. The standard Vivo V70 is expected to target the sub-Rs. 40,000 segment, which remains a key price range for premium mid-range phones in India.
The report also suggests that the Vivo V70 series may arrive as a renamed version of the S50 series that debuted in China in December 2025. Vivo has not confirmed an official launch date yet. However, references to an India-specific “AI Holi Portrait” feature running between February 19 and March 15 hint that availability could align with the Holi festival period.
