Samsung Galaxy F70 Pro launches with 6 years of updates and 6,000 mAh battery

Following the unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy F70e 5G back in February, the Galaxy F70 Pro 5G is now set to follow, offering a significantly more modern design with thinner screen bezels and a punch-hole camera instead of a notch. In typical Samsung fashion, the Galaxy F70 Pro is expected to stand out with exceptionally long-term update support, as the manufacturer promises six major Android updates and six years of security patches.
The device is IP64-certified, meaning it is protected against rain but not fully waterproof. However, the display is said to be particularly well protected against drops and scratches thanks to Gorilla Glass Victus+. The 6.7-inch display features an AMOLED panel with 1,080p+ resolution and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The fingerprint sensor is located on the side of the device rather than directly in the display. The battery has a capacity of 6,000 mAh and can be charged via USB-C at up to 45 watts.
Samsung includes a 50-megapixel main camera with optical image stabilization, but pairs it only with a 5 MP and a 2 MP camera. The 12 MP selfie camera supports HDR photography. Samsung has also cut corners on the processor, as the Galaxy F70 Pro 5G uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 from 2024. The ARM chip features four Cortex-A78 performance cores with boost clock speeds of up to 2.0 GHz, as well as four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores.
