The Galaxy A70 is a midrange phone that, like all Samsung phones in this price range, performs way above expectations.


Nothing midrange about the display

The Galaxy A70 boasts a maximised 6.7-inch screen and an FHD+ SAMOLED Infinity-U Display. The 20:9 aspect ratio provides a viewing experience that will make you think you're watching a premium priced device.


Setting the scene

Scene Optimiser is one of the most talked about features when it comes to taking happy snaps on the triple camera set up which consists of: 32MP low light, 8MP ultra-wide and 5MP Live Focus. Scene Optimiser uses AI to help you get the most brilliant shots in a wide range of settings and subjects, ranging from people to food, nature to animals, mountains to beachside, snow to sky, and so much more  


A phone that likes drama

Another cool feature of the A70 is Super Slow-Mo Video which can add great drama to what would otherwise be everyday video footage.


A master of multitasking

Many phones in this price range struggle with multitasking, but the A70 is more than capable of doing several things at once without compromising performance. Put this down to the superfast Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 Octa-Core processor combined with an impressive 6GB of RAM.


Easy unlocking and fast charging

It's a breeze to unlock your phone with on-screen fingerprint access. Once the phone is unlocked, it will keep going for longer with a power-packed 4500mAh battery coupled with 25W super-fast Charging.

A newer model Samsung Galaxy A71 6GB 128GB was released in January 2020.

Excellent machine.

I have thrown most of the things that I know and use it did every bit easily and may I say I have had tons of phones all the way from one of the first mobile phones called the Rabbit and that is enough rabbiting on ha ha.

If you're keeping an eye on Samsung's mobile strategy these days, you probably noticed that the South Korean firm has been super-active in the mid-range market, despite investing aggressively in flagships as well.

Samsung Galaxy A70 review: The Avenger is here

The Galaxy A70 is a substantially stronger effort than the A30, and promises "flagship level" features in a premium mid-range device. From a tri-camera setup to in-display fingerprint sensor, and almost two-day battery life, the Galaxy A70 packs plenty for under MYR2,000.
Pros:
  • Aesthetically pleasing
  • Expansive
  • bright screen with Widevine L1 support
  • Better than average performance
  • Good camera
  • Scene Optimiser
  • Big storage + microSD expansion
  • Surprising low light camera performance
  • Ultra-wide angle lens is useful
  • Long-lasting battery
  • Fast-charging + fast charger...
Cons:
  • Fingerprint and scratch/scuff magnet
  • Camera slow to focus
  • Disparity in quality between main camera and ultra-wide
  • Speakers not loud enough
  • Optical in-display fingerprint scanner not the fastest nor most accurate
  • Tends to over blow highlights on photos
  • That annoying Bixby Vision button
  • Price...

Good battery - weak screen

Phone charges quickly and battery lasts all day with my normal use unlike the phone I replaced. After having the phone 3 weeks took it out of the pocket to find a crack in the screen - not dropped the phone or sat on it - never had a cracked screen before.
