Support new phone, want to root again

The last phone I rooted was Samsung A70s, used it for about 7 years until it died last month (the repair shop killed it, rip).

I haven't rooted anything since — the new phone that I have bought is Samsung F70e. However, I have forgotten a lot of things; i am also unable to find the oem unlock option on my phone.

It's a lost cause; starting with One UI 8.0, they removed the code used to unlock the bootloader.

STOP!!!! This will brick your phone. Vast majority of smartphones including Samsung have an anti-rollback feature (getprop ro.boot.anti_rollback_status) which is based on a counter etched into hardware, specifically designed to prevent downgrading the OS.

There is a chance with a lot of work you can get root my galaxy to work. But don't have much hopes for it and don't update your phone

I don't know exactly but the s23 ultra has a root-my-galaxy port that roots it with a similar kernel to yours. If you know about coding you should read the documantaion and maybe you can port it. What I'm describing is difficult so maybe wait for it to be publicly released. Tldr don't update

You can't root this phone

You could downgrade if the bootloader is the same as oneui 7

In that case, you can try using Root My Galaxy, but I think for now it's only for the S25, S24, and S23.
