Reviewers always forget to mention the music aspect of phones. The A70 is a beast with good headphones. Awesome sound. Overall the phone ticks all the boxes. Had it for about a month and I strongly recommend it. Samsung blows away the midrange track with this one.
You're right. I mentioned this in my A20 review and also referenced it in the beginning parts of the video. The audio output in here is really great. Thanks for pointing this out again
@@obiokoyevincent4945 the camera is good, not on S10 level but quite close. I have compared the two. Honestly, if you are thinking of getting the phone, do so. You won't be disappointed.
@@sebyg0466 thanks for the reply. Had to buy a phone about two months ago, but ended up getting the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro instead of the Galaxy A70s and I believe I chose the better one.
Would not hate on anybody who purchases this phone, the value for money and the specs are awesome. I just decided to opt for the flagship S10+ but we will all be drooling over the new S11 with that 108mp camera and new insanely powered chip.
I am watching your clip for the first time on my SAMSUNG Galaxy a70.. and i agree with your review alot. Watching on 60 fps is jaw dropping experience on UA-cam
I got this phone on August 1st as a birthday present to myself. It's fantastic. Great value for money. I don't game but for my needs which are social media, music and email and pics its fantastic. Save the money on an flagship. Just buy a case for it.
Just wait until the galaxy a90 comes out Smmfh... Since Samsung has came out with all these A series phones I definitely wouldn't buy and S series I own the the A50 right and I can't complain it's perfect... Great video by the way keep up the good work...
Been thinking of getting this phone a bit skeptical cus I was thinking it's gonna be too big in my hand but this video confirms it am so getting it. Emerald dear gist me abeg where did you get your, is it in Abuja
I own the A70 and the s10 and for some reason the s10 gets mega hot after a couple of hours of use whilst the A70 just ploughs on for hours hardly even getting warm!
Hello Frank. That's because of the difference in CPU architecture. the midrange CPU of the A70 emits much less heat, because of the fewer cores at lower frequencies crammed together, compared to the more porwerful S10 CPU
Watching on my A70, im inlove with it😍 sexy and sleek in my hand and everything about it is so beautiful. Runs smoothly,never lags,they updated the on screen fingerprint, display is beautiful everything is just beautiful. Great Review By the way.
i'm planning to buy this phone this week and i've been looking at reviews. So when you said N120,000 i was like "he's Nigerian?" I will always support my Nigerian content creators and i've subscribed to you channel. great video and keep up the good work bro. safe.
Well, I was going to opt for A Sony Xperia 5 until I read about the A70! Great review with a lot of common sense! You're spot on about the screens shattering on costly smart phones!! Always reading about this on facebook! All my previous cheap phones have been mishandled and dropped-on most surfaces-but not one has sustained any damage, even if dropped screen down-whilst friends latest iPhones are wrecked lol!The A70 would be a great phone for me! I had one reservation and that was lack of water resistance. However, the other advantages outweigh that-and I'm not going near any water 99% of the time!! (and not going to wash up with the phone in one hand!). Besides, a good case will help! Could actually become Samsung's best seller. I liked your review because it was so enthusiastic and not influencing people to spend more money than necessary! A refreshing change to see this approach, so thank you for your excellent review :)
I just found you and I'm glad you are nigerian...I'm hooked to your channel already,you gave me what I've been looking for. We only have very few tech guys here on youtube...I'll be getting this phone
I have an opposite opinion about one UI vs Mi Ui I feel like Mi UI is too much... It just isn't neat enough. I feel it's just too heavy and takes too much away from the typical Android experience. They try so much to copy iOS One Ui on the other hand checks all the boxes for me IMO after stock Android and Oxygen os on the OnePlus, one UI is the next in line You spoke my mind about the fingerprint scanner, I mean if it ain't broke, don't fix it. In-display fingerprint scanners aren't as convenient as the rear capacitive ones Great video as always 👊🏽 Love your work
But really man, what really is the good thing about the One UI? I mean, it still has some unnecessary bloatwares, so what's the hype about. I'd pick MI UI a million times over One UI, MI UI has tons of amazing and fun customisation than One UI. Yeah MI UI tends to copy iOS, but, I really don't have any issues with it
@@the_biblesecrets Mi UI have bloatwares too.🤷🏽♂️ There's no customization on Mi UI that one UI can't do, they just don't throw it "in your face" like Mi UI. I don't need over customizability, at the end of the day I just need an os that'll work perfectly for me with no hassle and One UI does it for me (I don't hate xiaomi phones. k20 pro is one of my favorite phones) Like I said, "IMO" and I respect yours 👊🏼
Agreed! I've been using mid-range of xiaomi phone. And yes, miui is like shit when you have midrange chips. They giving update fixing the bug, yes they fixed. But the previous bug comes out, they fixed that bug, bring another bug. It's like a loop. Been long time I don't use xiaomi. If I back, I'll try with high end chips, 3phones of my xiaomi use custom rom 😂 now I'm having htc u11, I don't have any idea to move again. Unless it's break 🙄😂
Lol! Nice review...i love this guy. I really don't have a problem with someone going to buy a brand new S10 or any other high-end phone. I only have a problem when someone goes to buy a second hand S series at the same cost of this phone.
Hi, I regularly watch videos about phones reviews from various tech people about the phones.but they like to review more like flagship phones. And always stress for tech features. But hats off to you ..because what u are reviewing and telling is practically people are doing/ thinking before but any new device..and your review surely helps people because you are not stressing so much on phones upgraded features but optimum use of any individual.
Nice comparison, good job! Apparently, a70 works impressively good, for now, but my question is, how it will work in a long term, after several android updates and stuff? I would like to see a comparison between s10 and a70 after a year and a half or so, and see which one will hang on better to all the apps and system updates.. I think here we feel that difference of price between them. Do you agree?
That true who needs the samsung galaxy S10+ wen the samsung galaxy A70 can do all things..the one UI is not that bad sha..which just manage it...thanks for the review bro
Arrgh... Someone who actually thinks the way I do. I so love you man Henreneeo. I mean, Samsung products are just overhyped. I mean, I used the S10+'s front camera in low light and I was SOOOO disappointed. Yeah, it takes amazing, I mean, super amazing pictures in good lighting, but the processing of the images sometimes (especially when you use the image optimization) looks unreal, a few tech guys could easily notice that it is more beautified even with beauty mode turned on, so... I'd rather spend less on A70, than S10, or better still, go for the Redmi K20 pro and just put all to rest. And, man, I love your review on the One UI, I mean, I really don't know what other reviewers see in the One UI, especially people like Lewis (Unbox Therapy) and MKBHD, I just think they over hype Samsung products and Apple products unnecessarily. Yes, their performance is unparalleled, it's topnotch, the speed, screen refresh rate and all, but truth is, the human eye can't catch those stuffs, all you just see in the Amoled display and that's all. These expensive products are quite overhyped, really. Imagine a in 2018, Pocophone of about 120k, flawlessly beating Samsung's 200k plus Note 9's camera in MKBHD's blind camera test last year, that's a shame and a total waste of cash.
Great review. I needed a double SIM phone and swapped from a personal Pixel 2 XL and my work iPhone X. The only downside of this phone over either of them is the in screen fingerprint scanner has trouble as I often work with my hands. The double SIM version is two SIMs and a micro SD and everything about this phone is batting well above it's price range.
Get the oneplus 7 pro and do a review on it. I'm sure you'd like it's oxygenOS, and the fact that it possibly has the best display on any other flagship right now.
I personally love that UA-cam is in White. Isn't that down to personal preference as opposed to a fault with the phone. Does UA-cam show up as dark in Xioami? It would have been very helpful if you had clearly done a closeup comparison of what you mean. Always start with the positives in a review as opposed to diving deep into the negatives! It stops it from coming across as moaning but still loved your review, as usual!
This guy seems to be placing facts right on your face ,rather than put a silver line on them. Thanks for that. By the way. While shooting for the display try playing around with the fps and shutter speed it will give you better quality video
The issue with UA-cam remaining white when you have the Night mode on is not a Samsung related issue... It's because it'a a Google app and service. The same thing happens when opening the Play Store. However, this doesn't happen with the Apple Shore when Dark Mode is on... because it's an Apple app and service ...
Good job bro....bu the fingerprint is best on the screen, I mean u could easily access ur phone on the table, without having to pick it up, to access the fingerprint from behind
Believe me S10 kills it in terms of Camera , better performance , better battery life, better display quality , better video recording quality , Better IP rating and more. S10+ is almost perfect while A70 is corner cut yet a good mid range phone. Ya maybe there is a huge price difference but if you want 'almost perfect' phone it is non other that S10 from Samsung and there are lots of audience where they wants the best out of a brand
Just got this after a full month of thinking whether I should get this over the S10+. Fantastic phone, feels great. I'm coming from an S8 and the A70 does not feel like a midrange phone. Hope it holds up well.
This video is so awesome bro... Makes me wanna get back to samsung phones. But can we get a review on google pixel 3a and maybe a comparison with other budget phones. Thanks kindly.
Another thought about camera phones is that none can match a good compact camera for quality. If you buy a mid range phone like this-with a decent camera that is great for casual and fun use-the money you save buying a "flagship" phone can easily buy a good Micro Four thirds compact camera as well, for about the same price, which are superb (e.g Panasonic GX80 with interchangeable lenses!). The cost would be at least £200 less than buying a top phone! As for no weather sealing on the A50, there are lots of waterproof cases available. You are quite right about the Samsung A50 being a better option than the A70. 6.7 inches is a little too much-and also too big for a lot of available phone cases!
There are 3 things I don't like about my A70. 1. The fingerprint reader is slow and sometimes unreliable. 2. Lots of features like secure startup have been taken away on the One UI, its different from the flagships. (Don't know what is wrong with Samsung). 3. Phone updates are next to zero for African markets. I'm still on May patch whilst the Indian versions of the A50 and A70 have night mode, improved fingerprint and security updates.
Thankfully I'm not the only one with the Fingerprint annoyances. As for updates, Africa is practically always the last to get any updates. Especially with Samsung. The process is way too long. Fors internal testing, then it has to be certified internally and then pushed to the mobile carriers for testing as well before it finally gets to you. This is after they're mostly done for other markets
My biggest complaint about this phone is the poor fingerprint sensor -- compared with my S7 edge it's pretty slow. The other big complaint is the lack of haptic feedback, but I've sorted that out with 'gboard' and a couple of vibration apps. I use Nova Launcher instead of Samsung One. Wireless charging would have been nice. Notchless display would have been nice. Notification LED would have been nice. Volume control on the left would have been nice. But meh, I didn't want to spend loads of money while we're on the edge of getting a 5g rollout. Also I'm no fan of the charger -- a standard USB plug would have been better than USB C on both ends.
@@dylanpower1438 I've already got the A70 now and unlikely to change before 5g gets rolled out, but I've never been a fan of phones with moving parts either -- they make me think of the 'banana phone' days and how tricky it was finding a nice protective case for them.
Very good review. What u think about the skin I think about the assistent. I don't understand why Samsung just don't give up on bixpy and use the Google assistent. They keep trying to do everything...
You've got me. I'm about to renew a contract with 3 in the UK and they are offering my unlimited everything sim with the s10 and a70. The A70 IS £33 monthly and the s10 is £38 a month.. think I'm getting the a70. It might be cheaper and not build as great. But it does everything the s10 does with the same processor. And I only need 6gb ram not 8 or more. And you can't tell the difference between 2k and 1080p. This battery is seriously next gen lasting 2 days on heavy usage and 3 on light usage
May God bless you and hold you up and your channel, spending ₦120,000 just to convince us and share your thoughts, may God give you more power to you and your channel
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 nice review bro. Totally agree with you on the A70. Why bother with the S10 when this can handle your day to day needs. Bigger screen and bigger battery for less! If you are a Samsung fan then the A70 offers the best value. Let's not forget the S10 will lose half of it's value in about 8months. A70 is better abeg. Please do a gaming review before the camera. For the camera review, if you can compare images captured from the S10 Vs the A70, that would be cool.
I own a Google Pixel 3 Xl basically the best camera and software. I got a galaxy s8 plus on the side also, now i am trying to decide if i should get a A70 or Note 8 they are on the same price range. I need a big screen and decent side phone, note 8 just has better processor nothing else. With a70 you get a 6'7 inch display, in screen finger print sensor, headphone jack, 25 w fast charging, 128 gigs of storage up to 512 gigs of sd, 6 to 8 gigs of ram depending from the version z triple camera setup which is on par with galaxy s9 plus probs better cameras then note 8, new updates out of the box 4500 amp battery and everything. What is your idea?I really don't know, then always you could download and apply the Gcam of the pixel for a better image processing which wont be as good as google but still close enough. Please if any one of you could clear up my mind?
Sound is important when reviewing phones. Most phones hurt my ears during calls, and they often have poor multimedia sound through the speakers. I don't care about CPU etc. I only care about screen size (big!), sound, camera, and battery.
I like your writing forget about S10 👍 I got myself A50. Battery life in S10 just isnt good enough for 900 dolar phone. A50 cost much less and its exellent phone for that kind of money 🙂
Who said a70 doesn't have finger prints security? Great review and I like the phone, your response to finger prints will make me made my final decision if to buy or not😉❤️❤️❤️
Turn on youtube dark mode (not sure it's supported on mobile). The more important thing is that even that more and more apps and sites provide "night/dark mode" it's inconsistent between them - at least the coloring. UA-cam is kind of gray, on Twitter is with bluish tone, and etc.
I have used both miui and One ui recently.. Its actually personal preference. I felt oneui was little more refined than miui.. But miui has become lot better with miui 10 and it will improve on miui 11. Gap is very less
Reviewers always forget to mention the music aspect of phones. The A70 is a beast with good headphones. Awesome sound. Overall the phone ticks all the boxes. Had it for about a month and I strongly recommend it. Samsung blows away the midrange track with this one.

@@obiokoyevincent4945 camera is great under bright lights. Can be better though, especially with coming updates.

Is the camera good in low light or just okay?
Does this have dual bluetooth ?

Only good with good light

I don't know if anyone had told you how sweet and crystal clear your voice is. I can listen all day. Keep it up, bro.
Thanks a lot. Much appreciated
Been Waiting For this review for a very Long time... Thank you for this my guy.. 🔥
Would not hate on anybody who purchases this phone, the value for money and the specs are awesome. I just decided to opt for the flagship S10+ but we will all be drooling over the new S11 with that 108mp camera and new insanely powered chip.
Your channel is so underrated you're amazing 😉
I am watching your clip for the first time on my SAMSUNG Galaxy a70.. and i agree with your review alot. Watching on 60 fps is jaw dropping experience on UA-cam
this video has done it :) buying the A70 right now, thanks for honest review.
Nice.... pretty sure you'd find it awesome
I got this phone on August 1st as a birthday present to myself. It's fantastic. Great value for money. I don't game but for my needs which are social media, music and email and pics its fantastic. Save the money on an flagship. Just buy a case for it.
Just wait until the galaxy a90 comes out Smmfh... Since Samsung has came out with all these A series phones I definitely wouldn't buy and S series I own the the A50 right and I can't complain it's perfect... Great video by the way keep up the good work...
I have the a50 also, ill snatch the a70 up too tho..
I think the Samsung's OneUI is the best skin in the market so far. Its clean and just awesome and the icons are cool.
Clean video #Subscribed
Thanks bro. Respect your opinions.
I got this phone 2 weeks ago with th blue back. Love it!

Do you like the cameras? It looks like the quality is really good.
@@thevilkids yes.. good quality camera

Samsung makes their budget phones look and work so good. Love the video boss 👌
Thanks a lot
This is midrange,the M series are their budget version,the A is midrange and the S and the Note are their flagship versions
Thanks for the correction man 👍 always happy to learn.
U really gonna write off a whole UI coz of notifications from one app?😅

And thry both look very similar

Best Galaxy A70 review I've seen yet,thank you.
Thanks boss
Great review. I needed a double SIM phone and swapped from a personal Pixel 2 XL and my work iPhone X. The only downside of this phone over either of them is the in screen fingerprint scanner has trouble as I often work with my hands. The double SIM version is two SIMs and a micro SD and everything about this phone is batting well above it's price range.
Get the oneplus 7 pro and do a review on it. I'm sure you'd like it's oxygenOS, and the fact that it possibly has the best display on any other flagship right now.
It has one of the best display and nt the best display. Sony Xperia 1 and Samsung galaxy S10 has the best display.

By the way. While shooting for the display try playing around with the fps and shutter speed it will give you better quality video

Ok. Regarding the fingerprint scanner, please try that of Oneplus 7 pro and you'll be amazed on how fast it is
fingerprint scanner doesn't matter, what matters is the operating system
Yeah, the OS matters most But as he said that indisplay finger print scanners are always slow thats why i recommend him trying that of OP7P
Pretty good review, I love it! I would prefer Samsung A70 to S10 simply because the review is very informative. Thanks bro.
I love this phone. This review sold me on getting mine, thanks!!
hello what camera used for this video thknx
Good job bro....bu the fingerprint is best on the screen, I mean u could easily access ur phone on the table, without having to pick it up, to access the fingerprint from behind
Hey brother.... UA-cam has dark mode independently in the settings.....👍
The notifications still come in white i think
Exactly... Finally be person that's got the same result as me. Notifications still show up as white even when dark mode in UA-cam is turned on
@@henreeneo oh really? It comes dark for me.
@@henreeneo it was fixed with the One UI 2
Believe me S10 kills it in terms of Camera , better performance , better battery life, better display quality , better video recording quality , Better IP rating and more. S10+ is almost perfect while A70 is corner cut yet a good mid range phone. Ya maybe there is a huge price difference but if you want 'almost perfect' phone it is non other that S10 from Samsung and there are lots of audience where they wants the best out of a brand
is that why A50 and A70 are selling so much? and the reason Samsung is selling more than Apple?
Naija reviewer. Very good video, I'm subscribing. It's kinda strange seeing a reviewer who doesn't like one ui though. My thoughts
Respect your opinion bro and thanks a lot for subscribing. 🙏🙏
@@henreeneo naija all the way. Keep the channel growing with more great content
Good review bro! In fact based on your review I m going for A70 instead of S10
Just got this after a full month of thinking whether I should get this over the S10+. Fantastic phone, feels great. I'm coming from an S8 and the A70 does not feel like a midrange phone. Hope it holds up well.
I love your honest review! You definitely got my attention. New subscriber here! 👍
What about the new Samsung A71, do you think it is better.
Bought it yesterday here in Pakistan. Saw your review. and guess what. My views are same as yours. Agree with you.
Finaly a real , true review. Thanks man.
This video is so awesome bro... Makes me wanna get back to samsung phones. But can we get a review on google pixel 3a and maybe a comparison with other budget phones.
Thanks kindly.
Awesome video reviews 👍
Thanks boss
Was that the BLU Vivo XI+?
Another thought about camera phones is that none can match a good compact camera for quality. If you buy a mid range phone like this-with a decent camera that is great for casual and fun use-the money you save buying a "flagship" phone can easily buy a good Micro Four thirds compact camera as well, for about the same price, which are superb (e.g Panasonic GX80 with interchangeable lenses!). The cost would be at least £200 less than buying a top phone! As for no weather sealing on the A50, there are lots of waterproof cases available. You are quite right about the Samsung A50 being a better option than the A70. 6.7 inches is a little too much-and also too big for a lot of available phone cases!
There are 3 things I don't like about my A70.
1. The fingerprint reader is slow and sometimes unreliable.
2. Lots of features like secure startup have been taken away on the One UI, its different from the flagships. (Don't know what is wrong with Samsung).
3. Phone updates are next to zero for African markets. I'm still on May patch whilst the Indian versions of the A50 and A70 have night mode, improved fingerprint and security updates.
Thankfully I'm not the only one with the Fingerprint annoyances. As for updates, Africa is practically always the last to get any updates. Especially with Samsung. The process is way too long. Fors internal testing, then it has to be certified internally and then pushed to the mobile carriers for testing as well before it finally gets to you. This is after they're mostly done for other markets
A50 in in july we are still in may .in fact the whole world except india is in may update in both devices
in india july update came for A50
My biggest complaint about this phone is the poor fingerprint sensor -- compared with my S7 edge it's pretty slow.
The other big complaint is the lack of haptic feedback, but I've sorted that out with 'gboard' and a couple of vibration apps.
I use Nova Launcher instead of Samsung One.
Wireless charging would have been nice.
Notchless display would have been nice.
Notification LED would have been nice.
Volume control on the left would have been nice.
But meh, I didn't want to spend loads of money while we're on the edge of getting a 5g rollout.
Also I'm no fan of the charger -- a standard USB plug would have been better than USB C on both ends.
Paul get the A80
@@dylanpower1438 I've already got the A70 now and unlikely to change before 5g gets rolled out, but I've never been a fan of phones with moving parts either -- they make me think of the 'banana phone' days and how tricky it was finding a nice protective case for them.
Very good review. What u think about the skin I think about the assistent. I don't understand why Samsung just don't give up on bixpy and use the Google assistent. They keep trying to do everything...
What about A20 is it same thank you
Can you review the Huawei Nova 5 and compare with the SG A70
Both are gd phones
You've got me. I'm about to renew a contract with 3 in the UK and they are offering my unlimited everything sim with the s10 and a70. The A70 IS £33 monthly and the s10 is £38 a month.. think I'm getting the a70. It might be cheaper and not build as great. But it does everything the s10 does with the same processor. And I only need 6gb ram not 8 or more. And you can't tell the difference between 2k and 1080p. This battery is seriously next gen lasting 2 days on heavy usage and 3 on light usage
Na A30 me go buy make I leave infinix line forever
Nice vid sire
Smart choice bro. You wont regret it
How is the phone ??I plan on buying it
@@ihuomauwakwe6689 it's a cool device you wont regret using it
Do you play killzone shadow fall??

I just bought this phone and im in love with it, got white model too and is super sexy, i recommend btw i used to be iphone fan but now im ain't 🤣
@Henreneo - Does the A70 have AR Emojis like the Samsung S9 and S10?
Yes, it does
Yes
love your review. can you make a review on A90 as well please. thanks
Please @henreeneo can you do full comparison of A70 vs Redmi k20 pro
Does the A70 work for sprint??
Take A70 or waiting A70s with camera 64MP ? 😯😄
It's depends on how much the difference of both camera result and the price point of course.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 nice review bro. Totally agree with you on the A70. Why bother with the S10 when this can handle your day to day needs. Bigger screen and bigger battery for less! If you are a Samsung fan then the A70 offers the best value. Let's not forget the S10 will lose half of it's value in about 8months. A70 is better abeg.
Please do a gaming review before the camera. For the camera review, if you can compare images captured from the S10 Vs the A70, that would be cool.
Will consider making a gaming review....
Please for the gaming review, review PES2019 and PUBG on max graphics settings, thanks alot.
Am torned between this one and iphone 6s plus. Am confused can you help plzzzzzzzzz
A70 is best choice
I own a Google Pixel 3 Xl basically the best camera and software. I got a galaxy s8 plus on the side also, now i am trying to decide if i should get a A70 or Note 8 they are on the same price range. I need a big screen and decent side phone, note 8 just has better processor nothing else. With a70 you get a 6'7 inch display, in screen finger print sensor, headphone jack, 25 w fast charging, 128 gigs of storage up to 512 gigs of sd, 6 to 8 gigs of ram depending from the version z triple camera setup which is on par with galaxy s9 plus probs better cameras then note 8, new updates out of the box 4500 amp battery and everything. What is your idea?I really don't know, then always you could download and apply the Gcam of the pixel for a better image processing which wont be as good as google but still close enough. Please if any one of you could clear up my mind?
I hate background music. but this one was not distracting. good video.
Sound is important when reviewing phones. Most phones hurt my ears during calls, and they often have poor multimedia sound through the speakers. I don't care about CPU etc. I only care about screen size (big!), sound, camera, and battery.
A50 and 70 I like the glastick design then the class back.
Yeah better a scuffed up than a broken phone back
Most of the people I know clearly prefer One UI over MIUI and so do I !
I respect your opinion but I rely on facts :)
I like your writing forget about S10 👍 I got myself A50. Battery life in S10 just isnt good enough for 900 dolar phone. A50 cost much less and its exellent phone for that kind of money 🙂
But A50 can't play fortnite
@@exytheboy5416 And S10 can?
How do you get use to Samsung. My phones have been cheap but great phones like NuuMobile but A70 is very foriegn
I am from South Africa and I like your review
Hey thanks bro. Very much appreciated
Is there a way to add samsung health to Bixby
Fantastic review.....SUBSCRIBED😎
Thanks a lot
Who said a70 doesn't have finger prints security? Great review and I like the phone, your response to finger prints will make me made my final decision if to buy or not😉❤️❤️❤️
Started my channel because of you bro. Keep up the good work. Been supporting since day one 🙌🏽
Wow. That's awesome.. appreciated
Please A50 or A70 which one should I go for
This was a really helpful review video. Keep up the good work
Thanks
And by the way I use the a50 have u received june update cuz I heard the camera improved dratically after the update
Nope my last update was for May 1.
@@henreeneo kk
What update please?? How do i get it done
@@dandyesther1222 i was trying to confirm if june patch update was out but it seems only may updates have been sent to our region
Turn on youtube dark mode (not sure it's supported on mobile). The more important thing is that even that more and more apps and sites provide "night/dark mode" it's inconsistent between them - at least the coloring. UA-cam is kind of gray, on Twitter is with bluish tone, and etc.
Done that and it didn't work....
I have used both miui and One ui recently.. Its actually personal preference. I felt oneui was little more refined than miui.. But miui has become lot better with miui 10 and it will improve on miui 11. Gap is very less
