As I said earlier, the airborne update starts seeding from India, the OTA might take some time to reach every device. If you’re in a haste, then you can also manually update your Galaxy A70s to the One UI 2.5 update. You can check the newer updates in Settings > Software update.
For manual upgradation, you can download the firmware manually using Frija tool, SamFirm tool, or SamMobile website. If you are using one of the tools then enter your model and country code and download the firmware. Once downloaded, you can flash the firmware using Odin Tool. Then flash the file to your device. If you want to do so, then I recommend you to take a backup prior, before diving in to the process. That’s it.
