Samsung Galaxy S10 Series Hands-on - Setting a New Bar

The Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus: A Comprehensive Review

Samsung's latest flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus, have finally arrived, and they are packed with an array of features that will make them stand out from the competition. But which one is the best for you? Let's dive into a detailed review of these two devices.

**Design and Display**

Both phones feature a 6.1-inch Dynamic AMOLED display on the S10 and 6.7 inches on the S10 Plus, with Quad HD+ resolution. The S10 Plus has a larger screen, but it also means that you'll have a bigger phone to carry around. The phone's design is similar to previous Samsung flagships, with a glass back and metal frame. However, the phone still retains wireless charging and fast charging capabilities.

**Performance**

The S10 and S10 Plus are powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chips, which provide lightning-fast performance and impressive battery life. Both phones come with 8GB of RAM, but the S10 Plus has a more powerful chip than the S10. The storage options range from 128GB to 512GB or 1TB, depending on the model.

**Camera**

One of the standout features of the S10 and S10 Plus is their camera system. The phone comes equipped with a telephoto lens, which allows for better zooming capabilities in portrait mode. However, if you're looking for more of a portrait mode, the S10's standard lens will give you a slightly different look.

**In-Display Fingerprint Reader**

Samsung has finally added an in-display fingerprint reader to their flagships, but it's not quite as fast as some other manufacturers have made theirs. The reader uses ultrasonic technology to read your fingerprint, which means it vibrates the display to recognize your print. While it's not as fast as optical fingerprint readers, it still provides a convenient and secure way to unlock your phone.

**Other Features**

Both phones come with IP68 water resistance, making them perfect for those who enjoy splashing around in their free time. They also have a headphone jack, which is a rare feature among flagship smartphones. Additionally, the S10 Plus has reverse wireless charging capabilities, allowing you to charge other devices using your phone.

**Samsung Galaxy S10e: A More Affordable Option**

For those looking for a more affordable option, Samsung's Galaxy S10e is an excellent choice. While it may not have all the features of the S10 and S10 Plus, it still comes with most of the same specs, including the Snapdragon 855 chip, 6GB of RAM, and up to 128GB of storage.

**Galaxy S10 5G: A Cutting-Edge Option**

Finally, we have the Galaxy S10 5G, which is set to release in Q2 this year. This phone comes with a massive 6.7-inch display, 5G connectivity, and time-of-flight sensors on both front and rear cameras. While it's not yet available for purchase, those looking to be on the cutting edge of technology may want to keep an eye out for its release.

The Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus are packed with features that make them stand out from the competition. Whether you're looking for a powerful performance, advanced camera capabilities, or convenient features like wireless charging, there's something for everyone in these two flagship smartphones.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello everybody so if you're watching this video there's actually a very high chance that you just watched the Samsung Galaxy unpacked event here in San Francisco California that is where we just came from and Samsung just unveiled not one not two not three but four new phones so we're gonna go through all those new phones today we got these Samsung Galaxy S 10 samsung galaxy s 10 plus samsung galaxy s 10 e and the samsung galaxy s 10 5g so first off let's start off with these samsung galaxy s 10 and the samsung galaxy s 10 plus and these are definitely the flagships that the company is releasing right now they've got these big beautiful displays they're definitely upgrades from the simpson galaxy s 9 you've got a 6.1 inch OLED display on the samsung galaxy s 10 and a 6.4 inch OLED on the samsung galaxy s 10 plus is what they've done is done this new hole-punch display which they're calling infinity oh so in the samsung galaxy s 10 you're just getting a little hole punched out of the top right of the display where they're putting the camera whereas on the samsung galaxy s 10 plus you get kind of like an oblong shape because you've actually got two cameras in this whole cut so both the samsung galaxy s 10 and the s 10 plus you've got a 10 megapixel camera which is used for selfies but of course in the s 10 plus you've got an additional 8 megapixel camera which is mostly used for depth detection so you can actually get a really good portrait selfie as for the other cameras you've actually got three cameras on the S 10 and s 10 plus you're getting a 16 megapixel ultra wide camera a 12 megapixel standard camera which they call wide and a 12 megapixel telephoto camera so you can really get that ultra wide image you want to look for you can get a standard image or you can use the telephoto lens if you're looking for more of a portrait mode so these are Samsung's flagship switch means of course they're going to be using the latest Snapdragon chip they're writing the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 they're running eight gigabytes of RAM and they start at 128 gigabytes of storage with expandable storage available if you want that now you can go up to 512 gigabytes of storage but actually the s10 plus has an option which is a ceramic option which does 512 megabytes of storage or a one terabyte option if you really want a ton of storage in your phone now both of these phones still retain the wireless charging that we've seen in most Samsung phones before this but they also have reverse wireless charging so we first saw this in the huawei mate 20 pro it was a little bit slow but now Samsung is finally kept playing catch-up they've just added this in their phones and we're hoping it's gonna be a little bit faster because it works with phones or it can actually work with the Galaxy buds which they've also released alongside these phones the other major feature finally making its way to Samsung's phones that we've seen in some other manufacturers especially Chinese manufacturers lately is an in display from your front reader but this is not a optical fingerprint reader like we've seen in v1 plus 60 this is actually an ultrasonic fingerprint reader which means it actually vibrates the display to read your fingerprint and this is Samsung's flagship so you're getting pretty much every feature that you could find in a phone here you're getting ip68 water assistance you are getting a headphone jack which is amazing I really hope to ever attain that as another few generations and you're getting cat 20 LTE which is a new LTE bands that is super fast and you should get really really good speeds on this phone so next we got to talk about the samsung galaxy s 10 e which is basically their reaction to the iphone 10 r it's the cheaper model that most people might actually pick up it does look a little bit cheaper to me it kind of looks like a samsung galaxy s3 but it's just a new version of that boats interesting is you're getting almost everything that you're getting in the samsung galaxy s 10 and has 10 plus you're just missing a couple of features so you're still getting the sanitarian 855 you are starting at 6 gigabytes of ram instead of 8 gigabytes of ram but you're still getting the same amount when t 8 gigabytes of storage here now the other key differences are that the back of the phone also does not get that telephoto lens you're just getting a standard and a wide lens and instead of in ultrasonic for your print reader you're actually getting a capacitive fingerprint reader besides that the screen is fhd instead of quad HD but if you want a smaller phone this is a 5.7 inch display and this could actually be a nicer pickup for some people that don't want that huge display that you're getting on the s10 in the s10 plus and finally they also revealed at the galaxy s 10 5g and this one isn't coming out right now it's actually coming out in q2 of this year but the major differences here is got a bigger display six point seven inches that's actually enormous but it's also got 5g of course and then it's got time-of-flight sensors on both the front cameras and the back cameras in addition to those three cameras on the back in the two on the front this is very similar to the s10 plus but you can do a little bit better depth sensing and it's more of like a 3d camera so if you want to get your hands on these phones Peters start tomorrow February 21st but they actually come out on March 19th which is a little bit of a way so just take that as you will the 5g model of this phone comes out in q2 we don't know a date we don't know if rice we don't know if you want it you probably are not gonna want it yet because 5g is still gonna take a little bit of time to get here it will be getting there this year so if you want to be on the cutting edge that could be a cool option but otherwise I'd probably just stick with one of these normal phones so that's been it there were a lot of phones to go through here obviously we've had four phones basically to talk about but we also have a ton of coverage of basically everything else the Samsung announced today I have unpacked we've got the Galaxy buds like all of those other accessories but ton of photos so make sure you stay tuned to hundred or thirty calm for comparisons for whatever Samsung news you might want so I will
