Counterpoint analyst Ivan Lam said: "In the past year, Vivo has made significant progress in China's mid-to-high-end field. Its market share in the $500 to $599 price range has risen from 10% in September 2020 to 20% in September 2021. This was driven by the strong performance of the X70 Pro launched by vivo in September. Vivo continues to drive up its value chain through ongoing efforts in research and innovation in camera technology, including a strategic partnership with ZEISS, a leader in optical technology. ”
