The most obvious difference is platform: Valora runs on iOS and Android, whereas Celo Wallet runs in browsers and on desktop. More abstractly though, Valora is a social payments application whereas the Celo Wallet is just a tool. That's why Valora includes extra features around importing contacts, verifying phone numbers, finding friends, etc. In contrast, one of this wallet's design principles is to be minimal, meaning no analytics, no plugins, and no device permissions (except for Ledger access).
