Delving inside the A70, we find the Snapdragon 665, an octa-core system chip with twо higher-clocked cores and six cores for the less-demanding tasks. When it comes to RAM, there are two variants to choose from: 6GB and 8GB. The storage option is only one, however: 128GB. If that’s not enough for your needs, you’re free to expand it with a Micro SD card.

If you’re worried that the huge display will lead to a short battery life, don’t be. The A70 has a massive 4,500mAh battery that should keep it running for quite a while before you need to recharge it. And when you eventually run out of juice, there’s 25W Super-Fast Charging to help you top up the battery in no time.

On the software side, we have Android 9 dressed as Samsung’s One UI, just as you’d expect in a phone released in 2019. It comes with the usual digital wellness features and other Samsung goodies such as Samsung Pay and Bixby.

Cameras

As we mentioned earlier, the Galaxy A70 has three cameras on the back. Unlike the S line, here the telephoto camera is replaced by a depth sensor for a more advanced bokeh effect. The other two are a 32MP main camera and an 8MP Ultra Wide Angle lens. The bigger main sensor should somewhat compensate for the lack of a telelens as the pictures it takes will have plenty of detail to zoom into. The 8MP sensor of the wide-angle camera seems a bit lackluster, but we’ll refrain from judging before we see actual samples.

What’s more impressive is the front-facing camera that Samsung has decided to put on the A70. It’s also a 32MP one although with a slightly different aperture (rear one is F1.7, front one is F2.0). This should result in some high-quality selfies, but again, samples will say more than numbers.

Price and release date

The Samsung Galaxy A70 is coming April 26 but its price is still unspecified and will likely depend on the region you're in. We expect to get details about the pricing before April 26, even if Samsung doesn't officially announce it earlier. As retailers start gearing up for the release there will surely be a leak of information about the exact cost of the Galaxy A70.
