Samsung Galaxy S10, S10+, S10E: finally!

Samsung did not hold back this year with a Fold version too!

Although it was preceded by a vast amount of leaks and early imagery, this year’s Unpacked was definitely an eventful one with lots more devices coming from Samsung. Let’s do a rundown with the first impressions for these new offerings.

Yep, the South Korean tech-giant took it up a notch by adding the Galaxy S10e this year (guessing as a nod to the iPhone XR) and we were treated to an intro for the new Galaxy Fold too.

First off, here’s a rundown of specs for the 4 smartphones:

After a long period of “will they or won’t they”, the Galaxy S10 and S10+ will in fact be the first mobile devices from Samsung to feature an Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanner from Qualcomm behind the display, while the Galaxy S10e can be unlocked with a Capacitive Fingerprint Sensor on the side button.

Now for the hands on/first impression reviews:

• Sam Rutherford from Gizmodo sees the GS10 as packed with hard to find mobile tech as Wi-Fi 6 and a new take on the notched selfie cam compared to its predecessor and in the US. Being the first Samsung device powered by the new Snapdragon 855 chipset was also impressive. Meanwhile, the Galaxy 10E can be the phone for those who want a non-curved screen without breaking the bank. Plus, one of the very few who does not have a notch but instead have an Infinity-O hole giving more screen surface usage.
• Matt Swider of of Tech Radar sees the high 93.1% screen-to-body ratio and in-screen fingerprint sensor is definitely a pro in the Galaxy S10. The painful part is the price and (for the non-Bixby fans), there’s still the Bixby button unfortunately. Initially the same with the S10 Plus sentiments.
• CNET’s Jessica Dolcourt immediately noticed the S10 Plus as very slippery to the point it fell landing on her purse or lap (yikes). While the Infinity-O display blends with the large screen with slim bezels.

Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus Coming Soon: and one more?

Are we all in for a treat this coming February?

With CES in full swing and World Mobile Congress 2019 just around the corner, so are the new Samsung Galaxy devices! One of the newest surprises we may be seeing is not just 2 but 3 phones from the Galaxy S line this year!

Get Ready for Galaxy S10!

It looks like we’re getting even slimmer bezels from last year’s S9 release. As for the displays, the Galaxy S10 will have a 6.1-in screen with one front facing camera. The larger Galaxy S10 Plus boasts a 6.4-inch display with 2 front facing cam and 4 rear cameras (yes… FOUR). Additionally, it looks like the newest in the gang: the Galaxy S10 Lite will carry a 5.8-inch display (think of it as the iPhone XR of the launch in regard to it’s scaled back approach).

Like all other phones, will these have a notch? Well, they’ll have a “punch hole”, which is called “Infinity-O” display looking dot (or two) in front on the top right display for the selfie camera (quite similar to the Galaxy A8s).

All 3 devices will be powered by the Snapdragon 855 chip (for the US Market) or Exynos 9820 (for the rest of the world). Samsung might be bringing their A-game as we might now get to see an in-fingerprint scanner using an ultrasonic scanner from Qualcomm.

Ok, the million dollar question (and may be literally) are the prices. Expected prices for the 128GB storage are:

• Galaxy S10 Lite: $850
• Galaxy S10- $1,000
• Galaxy S10+ : $1,130

The S10 will have a model with 512GB of storage, which will cost around $1,250, while the S10+ will have 512GB and 1TB that will sell for around $1,390 and $1,760 respectively. (yes… 1760!!.. dollars)

When will we probably see the new phones? Estimated unveiling is February 20, while preorder will likely open on the same day and the official launch will be on March 8.

Which device will you be getting? Or are you more excited to see what surprise Samsung has in store for us on the of the launch? Same here!!
