So ive never had really good batter life on the galaxy a70 but after the android 10 update its horrible.Using the phone while mobile data is on just murders the batter just simple scrolling on reddit or twitter eats 1% every 3-4 minutes, listening to spotify while screen is off i lose 1% per 2 songs. Camera app is worse i can probably lose 10% battery for 15-20 mins of use. Even when idle its draining more. Sync is off location is set to use wifi only, i dont have the brightness on high.

I've done all off them but still no better performance, when the phone reaches 60-50 %  is sutting down, i ve also changed the battery but still the same.

main reason for all to fail is bug instability you can either wait for next stable update or follow some advice and tips I could give you
1 use adaptive battery
2 use medium power save
3 prevent background apps from consuming data in battery device care
4 put unused apps to sleep
5 reduce some permissions given to apps that are not necessary for running of app
6 use dark mode
7 use location when necessary as in maps Google search or any location based app else constant use loads battery causing heating
8 prevent network inputs like NFC bluetooth WiFi from working together too many network inputs will cause heating and lagging
9 while charging keep phone idle
10 turn off auto sync use when necessary
11 reset phone settings once clear cache
12 if nothing works once try factory reset

I hope this helps because one ui bugs can be fixed by samsung when new updates come till then try these tips they could help to reduce battery heat up and loading so that smooth charging works and device runs smoothly

do u have this in battery in device care
if u do put unused apps to deep sleep it really does help they won't work without u opening them
OTA updates should only be carried over strong stable wifi network only else flash via Odin tool
