Samsung Galaxy A70

I don't make a lot of voice calls (but call quality is good) , and I don't play games on the phone or use social media.But, I do surf on the phone a lot, read ebooks, and text - so big, high quality screen was very important to me.With my usage patterns, I can get more than 2 days between charges, sometimes more than 3.Dual SIM is handy, will get a cheapo PAYG SIM from EE or O2 for extra coveragePlenty of internal storage, plus memory card.Haven't done much experimenting with the camera yet, so can't comment on that.Found the finger-print reader ok, but in the end found a PIN to be quicker and more reliable.Overall, impressed and very pleased with it - worth the money !

What I can say is, I simply love this smartphone.My recent was the Galaxy S9 (non plus version), and this Galaxy A70 does what that other smartphone does but better, with the exception of the cheaper price tag. The A70 has more RAM (came with the 6GB model), and big camera improvement thanks to the triple camera setup. The fingerprint scanner is now optical (on the screen) which might throw some people of compared to the scanner which is on the back part of the S9 smartphone, but not for me, as I prefer using the screen itself to unlock my A70. Last thing I would like to mention is the addition of the 123 degree camera mode built in, which basically zooms way out and widens the camera view, so it is like what the human eye can see, which is quite cool! Also is just as great if not better, and competes with the flagship brands out there, including Samsung's own range.Overall, fantastic smartphone from Samsung, and would recommend people to buy it if they don't want to go all out and buy a flagship Samsung. 10/10 :)

Don't buy this phone from "Low Price Phones," its a scam. They trick you into believing the phone is new by cleaning the phone, changing broken parts and sticking on a Samsung branded screen protection - the type that you peel off of an unused phone. Surprisingly, they go as far as attaching a security seal to the box, then sealing the box with plastic packaging to make you think it's brand new. These swindlers have mastered the craft of repackaging used phones, but the biggest letdown is the phone screen. The screen quality is very poor, colours are washed out and pale, I'm convinced they replaced the original LED screen with a £2.50 screen from China. Also, the phone crashes most of the time and stops working before I can get pass the pin entry screen. At this point, all I can do is turn the phone off, then back on again to overcome the problem.The only positive feedback I can give you is that after playing around with the phone features, I honestly believe this would be a good phone to have if purchased brand new from a trustworthy retailer. However, based on my experience and receiving a refund, I would advise you not to buy from "Low Price Phones", you will more than likely regret it.

Nice big samsung screen, good quality. Previously I bought a pocophone and returned it because the screen was a bit washed out coming from a note 4.Fingerprint scanner as people mention is extremely poor indeed. Have latest updates (up to end of July).But face recognition is incredibly fast which I prefer using anyway, just open up my little book case and bam its on.Call reception is pretty much the same as my old note 4, maybe slightly inferior actually.The system seems fast/responsive but that could be because my old phone was becoming so sluggish. But performance is what I would expect from a new phone at this price.I drive a lot and the googlemap experience has been problem free so far.Battery life impressive (for now), not replaceable so hopefully it does not deteriorate too much within the next few years. Charging upto approx 80% is very fast indeed, but the last 20% or so is slightly slower to charge.Overall extremely happy with the device, the big screens are what I like and this one pushes it even further, you really appreciate the extra screen real estate.Would add that the official samsung gradient case is very poor, its slippery and honestly just a nasty thing. The official samsung book case is much nicer, good material to hold onto.

I have a new works iPhone and this device knocks that into a cocked hat. The device is larger than you would think but the screen is incredible. Much clearer than the apple equivalent. It feels faster too. It also has much longer battery life and it's a third of the price of the Apple. If you enjoy being stupid and mugged off then buy an Apple. If you want a proper device you can live with an enjoy that has great battery life, is more intuitive to use then buy this.

I bought this phone to replace my Samsung S7. I love this phone it has the majority of the features of the top range samsung without the price tag. I have only had this phone for a few days but have not had to recharge the battery ( I was recharging my S7 four times a day), the clarity and speed are exceptional. I would recommend this phone to anyone. The person who recommended it to me said that it was as good as the top range phones but the price was kept down as the phone was plastic, not metal. This does not worry me. I will definitely be recommending this phone to anyone who wants to upgrade or purchase a new phone..

Large and bright screen, good battery life, good connectivity on both Wi-Fi and 4G. This phone does everything needed. Perhaps the spec isn't up there with the flagship phones but, unless you do a side by side test, you'd be hard pushed to see the difference.Overall, very good value and very good quality for the money.
