Samsung has given us a dilemma because we don't just have one great note phone this year we've got to the 6.8 inch Galaxy Note 10.1 ode 10 now these phones share the same core features including Android 9 inside the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor same main cameras on the back and on the front and of course that stylus tucked away.

Now, there are a few differences to the phone specs and features beyond just the size one of them is price. The Galaxy Note 10.1 note 10 costs about $950 so the question is what do you get for $150 and is it worth it. The biggest difference between the plus model and the regular model of course is the screen. This one is enormous and while the size is actually pretty cumbersome not as comfortable to hold as the other phone it is the absolute best for watching videos and doing whatever it is that you're gonna be doing on this screen viewing is top-notch.

There's also an extra camera on the back this is a 3d depth sensing camera right now. That 3d depth camera really only does two things there's an AR measuring app and there's also a 3d scanner which you can use to scan an object and create a digital image of it neither one of them right now is very good got mixed results with both I don't really think that you're going to be missing much by not having this extra camera on the back. So those main cameras that are really gonna matter most let's talk about storage for a second.

You get two options with the note 10 plus 256 and 512. You only get the first one with a regular note 10 there's also a microSD card storage support on this phone that you don't get with a smaller device I think that 256 gigabytes is pretty generous to begin with and the average person isn't going to exceed that but if you are a person who has a ton of videos games photos and you want to keep them all in your device then you're gonna want to go with the larger phone. There's also more RAM on the larger phone 12 gigabytes versus 8 on the note 10 but again I think that the average person isn't really going to see much of a difference.

There the note 10 plus a larger phone and with it comes a larger battery inside 4300 milliamp versus 3500 milliamp on the smaller phone does it make a difference yeah but it depends what you're doing and what you're looking at in CNET's video drain loop tests on airplane mode this phone lasted much longer. But if you're gonna be navigating streaming video games music then you're gonna notice that your battery life is gonna fade faster anyway it's just nice to have more in reserve to begin with.

That said the Galaxy Note 10.1 we got 21 hours average on this larger phone when doing that video loop tests and about 18 hours on the other so in real life your mileage might vary but these are both very good starting places now when it comes to charging the phones they're both very well matched they come with Samsung's 25 watt wired charger in the box and that takes you from zero to full pretty quickly about 65 minutes on the larger phone even faster on the smaller one. They both also have wireless charging capabilities and they can share their power with other wireless enabled devices.

Now the one difference is that the note 10 plus will support Samsung's 45 watt charger which you can buy for $50 the smaller one doesn't fit again I think that's overkill so what does $150 get you a larger screen for sure bigger battery but battery life is still pretty good on both and a couple extras. But for me I actually prefer the smaller Note 10 for day-to-day use the size feels a lot more comfortable I feel like I've got a really good grip on it I'm not gonna drop it even without a case I don't really think that I'm gonna be missing out on a lot of those other features I'm not really gonna need the camera on the back and yeah it doesn't have a micro SD card slot and that's unfortunate.

But still for the price that's sub $1000 you're still getting a really premium phone here and when I take all of the specs and the features and I compare them even against the galaxy s 10 phones and I did really love the galaxy s 10 plus if I look at all of those this is still the one that I would pick.
