Samsung Galaxy A70 6GB 128GB
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.

Samsung Galaxy A70s
The Samsung Galaxy A70s comes with a key camera upgrade over the previous standard A70 . While the device still has it key features of a larger 6.7-inch display and the use of in-screen fingerprint scanner, the new Galaxy A70s also comes with the latest Samsung 64-megapixel main camera, in addition...
A real hit from Samsung in the middle class. Have used this for 2 days now and I'm very happy with my purchase. Coming from a S9 + but overall I like this more, I have to say. Firstly, it does not have a curved screen, which is a great advantage just that.
Samsung Galaxy A70 review: A big phone with plenty of power!
The Galaxy A70 is really a device for multimedia enthusiasts. With a big vibrant display and a big battery, it is quite an ideal phone for multimedia consumption at this price range. With the clean UI and the capable processor on the board, the device is also swift and smooth.
Samsung has charted the course for its comeback in the mid-range segment with the rejuvenated Galaxy A-series, introducing a new lineup that has seen flagship features trickle down the price ladder.

Samsung Galaxy A70 review: Redefining the premium mid-range segment
The sub Rs 30K price bracket isn't as populated as the sub Rs 20K price range but we do have some gems here which include, but not limited to, the POCO F1, the Nokia 8.1 and the OPPO F11 Pro.
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.- 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...
- 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...
Screen cracks when in pocket.
Battery life excellent - normally charge up in the car for 30 mins each day - might drop to 75% charge at the day where my previous phone would be dead. Big problem I have is the screen cracked within 3 weeks of ownership - phone has not been dropped and only i ever put it in the front pocket of my...
