Our thoughts
Realme XT takes this one in terms of sheer specs on paper. At just PHP 16,990 and it presents a more compelling and complete package.
It could be the phone for those who want more performance, quad cameras, and overall more bang for their buck.
On the other hand, Galaxy A70 could be the one for those who need a phone with a larger cinematic screen and battery capacity.
But as usual, we need to do an actual test to determine the real winner.
