Compare Samsung Galaxy A71 VS Samsung Galaxy A70s VS Samsung Galaxy A70


The Galaxy A71 comes with new offerings compared to other existing models in the series like the A70 and A70s, and if you are wondering what are the main differences and similarities between each of the three options, then you are in the right place.


Design and screen

All three models have virtually the same body dimensions as the screen size of the A71 is the same as that of the A70 and A70s. Amazingly, the panel settings are completely identical between the three options: the same 6.7-inch panel with 1080 x 2400 pixel resolution of 393 ppi density and Super AMOLED technology.

The only difference is for the notch of each model and the edges: the A70s offer the thicker edges and the larger drop notch compared to the A70, which has such reduced details. The new A71 drops the notch to bet on the centralized circular notch, something that should become popular in intermediates of 2020.

The rear cover of the A71 resembles those of the A70 and A70s, but now the camera region features not only a fourth extra sensor but also a rectangular rather than oblong and elongated array.

Just as the little difference between the Galaxy A70 and A70s nomenclatures already indicates, the internal changes are also few. In both models we see the same chipset: a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 eight-core clocked at a maximum speed of 2 GHz. In the new A71, we see a more powerful chip, the Snapdragon 730 with eight cores up to 2.2 GHz.

In terms of memory, however, the device follows the same line as other models by offering options of 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM accompanied by 128 GB of memory. A 256 GB option would be welcome, but it was completely left out.

Camera

The camera set on the Galaxy A71 gets one more sensor than the one on the A70 and, like the A70s, jumps from the 32 MP main camera to offer a more powerful 64 MP option.

The A71 has a total of four rear cameras: a 64 MP main (16 MP quad-pixel sensor), a 12 MP wide-angle lens sensor and two 5 MP cameras, one for the macro lens and another for a depth of field data. The A70 has the same 32 MP main sensor, but here it offers an 8 MP secondary sensor with a wide-angle lens and another 5 MP for depth data. Meanwhile, the A70s (announced after the A70) adapts to the 64 MP sensor and offers the same pair of sensors: one 8 MP with a wide-angle lens and one 5 MP for depth.

Battery and software

As for the battery, the trio offers the same specifications: the battery cell has 4,500 mAh and the fast charging also offers 25W of power, higher than competitors who choose the 18W charger. The operating system is still Android 9 Pie in the first two, but the latest one comes with Android 10 running from the factory. Samsung will likely update older models to Android 10, but there is no official release date yet.

Conclusion

The Galaxy A71 arrives as a modest evolution of the A70s and A70. It has another camera option, offers almost identical body to other models, a rectangular camera module that will be standard on Samsung smartphones next year, but stands out on the screen: instead of the drop notch, Samsung opts for inheriting the circular notch of the Galaxy Note 10 on their intermediate smartphones, which will also be a trend for the category in the coming months.
