The popular Galaxy A70 is getting a slight refresh with the new Samsung Galaxy A70s.
Just like the new Galaxy A50s and A30s, the Samsung Galaxy A70s will have improvements in the design and camera departments.
The new Galaxy A70s will feature the new prism design accent on the back, like what its siblings have. You can get it in Red, Black, and White.
Its primary camera was also upgraded. It now uses the new 64-megapixel ISOCELL Bright GW1 sensor that we also saw on other devices like the Redmi Note 8 Pro. This replaces the 32-megapixel sensor of its predecessor, although the 8-megapixel ultra-wide shooter and 5-megapixel depth-sensor were kept.
Other than that, it’s still the same device from before. The Samsung Galaxy A70s is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 processor, has a large 4,500mAh battery with 25W fast-charging support, and a gigantic 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen with an in-display fingerprint scanner.
