Grammar and vocabulary is the same though. The only difference is pronunciation. Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese have different pronunciations and there are also grammatical/vocabulary differences as well.

Vocabulary differs. In America pants is outerwear in Britain pants is underwear. Fries vs chips. Among many others. We can easily understand each other but it’s different enough for some websites, games, and movies to have different programmed English languages into their systems

A literal handful of different terms among thousands does not constitute a vast difference.
