itel Power 70 review and features

itel has officially launched its first entry-level smartphone of the year in the Philippines—the itel Power 70—and it’s making waves with its massive battery and competitive specs, all at an affordable price.

🔋 Big Battery, Big Power

One of the itel Power 70’s standout features is its huge battery setup. The phone comes equipped with a 6,000mAh battery and supports 18W fast charging via USB Type-C. But there’s more—it also has an optional drop-resistant power bank-like case that adds another 4,000mAh, giving you a total of 10,000mAh battery capacity. According to itel, this powerhouse can deliver up to 48 hours of entertainment or 25 hours of nonstop TikTok use.

To top it off, itel is backing the battery with a four-year battery health guarantee, which is something you don’t often see in this price range.

🖥️ Smooth Display for Less

On the front, the itel Power 70 sports a 6.67-inch HD+ IPS LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, making it great for smoother scrolling and gaming. The screen also reaches 700 nits of peak brightness, so it holds up decently even under bright sunlight.

⚙️ Capable Performance for Everyday Use

Under the hood, the Power 70 runs on the MediaTek Helio G50 Ultimate processor with 4GB of RAM and your choice of either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. It also supports microSD cards up to 1TB, so storage shouldn’t be an issue.

Graphics are powered by the IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU, which handles casual gaming and video playback just fine.

📸 Cameras That Cover the Basics

Photography-wise, the itel Power 70 is equipped with a 13MP main rear camera, paired with an auxiliary sensor for depth or scene enhancement. On the front, there’s an 8MP selfie camera, perfect for video calls or quick selfies.

🎧 More Features That Matter

Aside from the basics, the Power 70 includes some features that are often skipped in budget phones:

• 3.5mm headphone jack (yes, it’s still here!)
• Side-mounted fingerprint sensor for quick unlocking
• Dual SIM support
• IP54 dust and water resistance rating

It runs on itel OS 14.5, which is based on the latest Android 14, giving you access to updated features and security patches.
