Viltrox af 35mm f 1 8 evo vs meike 35mm f 1 8 pro?

The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 EVO and the Meike 35mm f/1.8 Pro are close to identical on paper. Both are full-frame primes at 35mm and f/1.8, both autofocus, and neither is stabilised. On APS-C, both frame like 52mm and give the depth of field of f/2.7.

The difference is mounts. The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 EVO fits Sony E and Nikon Z. The Meike 35mm f/1.8 Pro also fits L-Mount, so it's the one to pick if you shoot Leica, Panasonic or Sigma. Otherwise, choose on which mount you own.

Either one suits environmental portraits and groups, where you want to show the setting. For more on that, see Portraits. Before you buy, check your camera's autofocus support and that the camera maker allows third-party lenses on your mount, as explained in Third-party lenses.
