Get my type. 2.50 dollar. Try it once and you will like it if you like rugged case. All the rest pale in comparison.

Aliexpress. Search for Rugged Shield Case Samsung A70. As for screen protector just get any. Be warned that those full type with black border will cover up the edges including the top and bottom so best to get non-full type.

I much prefer those screen protector with black borders even though there is a little bit of screen cutoff. Those non full type will leave 1-2mm gaps around curved screens which is a big eye sore. Also the gaps make it more prone to trapping lint and dirt around edges of the screen protector

Not that it matters. Go amazon search screen protector for a30/50/70 and take a look at those non-full types. Check those reviews with photos and you will see regardless of the brand, all of them will leave gaps around the screen. Probably from the same few china oem manufacturers.

After using for 3 weeks, this phone is very decent for the price at sgd $450 with big battery life, big screen, nfc, dual lte and super charging

Just one complaint, the black color is not really black in color.

Go get it

Pretty good review of the M30

https://www.digit.in/reviews/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-m30-review-177425.html

The Samsung Galaxy M30 seems to tick most of the right boxes for a mid-range Android smartphone at Rs 14,990. Two apparent areas of weakness, however, are performance and software. While performance on the Exynos 7904-powered Galaxy M30 isn’t bad, it isn’t particularly impressive either. The feeling that you’re using a mid-range smartphone with sub-par specs does seep in when you’re gaming or browsing heavily. Software too isn’t as updated as what’s available on the Galaxy A30, a phone that was launched around the same time as the Galaxy M30.

The odd thing is the review indicated that the Exynos 7904 at some point is too hot to put against your ear. So far, this is the only review that indicated that.

A50: bought set at full price from Samsung shop. Overheating when calling/browsing web/watching videos and very bad battery drain when idle: use 2 to 3 hours and left less than 40% battery.

Set screen to low brightness and even Performance Mode to optimized/medium/high performance and even reset phone. Still happens even after installing updates.

Btw, i don't play games. Will be going down to Samsung Service centre to see what's wrong or getting some other phone.

Every phone got the suay cases and it looks like I kena. Also if more people get these overheating issues, then it's possible Samsung rushed the phone out. Cos Amazon India full of people complaining about overheating issues on this model.

The Exynos 9610? Hmm, if 7904 is overheating, then I see why it happens to 9610.

Anyway, if it doesn't work out, get a phone with Snapdragon 6xx series, they run pretty cool and is good for everyday use.
