Samsung Galaxy S10

Design and build

The Galaxy S10 is the result of ten years of pioneering mobile-first. It introduces the next generation of mobile innovation. It goes beyond the bezels introducing a cinematic experience for an interrupted smartphone viewing experience. On it are probably the slimmest side bezels ever on any smartphone with a hole punch on the top left corner that the selfie camera sits in.

On the back, you will see a bar that houses is camera lenses, three of them in a horizontal orientation. You will also notice Samsung branding on the very back. The 3.5mm jack makes a come back here and this will make people very happy. As a result, you get Samsung earphones in the package it comes in. Galaxy S10 has an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance for up to 30 minutes in either or both.

Display

Samsung’s next-generation display begins with the Galaxy S10. I cannot speak highly enough of the efforts that went around the engineering of this 6.1 inches display it has. Its Dynamic AMOLED screen produces the only HDR 10+ viewing experience on a smartphone that reduces even the brightest of blues to ensure your eyes are not affected by it. As already mentioned the S10’s display is where you will find its fingerprint scanner that when you unlock your phone with you will be greeted by Samsung’s very own One UI. Protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 6 it is built to survive scratches and sometimes hard knock (s).

I must also mention that it has a 1440 x 3040 pixels resolution with 550ppi density.

Camera

The camera of any Galaxy S smartphone is and has always been a key selling point. With the S10 we get three next-generation camera lenses and one on the front. Imaging dual video recording/call on both the primary and selfie camera, 4K video recording with video stabilization, 2x optical zoom, intelligence, ultra-wide lens, HDR, panorama, autofocus and so much more all on one phone. When you imagine that, you imagine the Galaxy S10.

It comes with three lenses on the back. The first a 12 MP Dual Pixel PDAF, OIS- the other another 12 MP telephoto AF, OIS, 2x optical zoom lens, and the third a 16MP ultra-wide shooter. Each camera with its function as listed above.

Turn to the front-facing camera which is an impressive 10MP lens. I love that it can record 4K videos; this is very rare and unheard of for a selfie camera.

Performance and memory

Platform

With Samsung, it is always about choice. There is a choice for the chipset you would want (Exynos 9820 Octa (8 nm) or Qualcomm SDM855 Snapdragon 855 (7 nm))There is a choice for the CPU (Octa-core (2×2.7 GHz Mongoose M4 & 2×2.3 GHz Cortex-A75 & 4×1.9 GHz Cortex-A55 or Octa-core (1×2.8 GHz Kryo 485 & 3×2.4 GHz Kryo 485 & 4×1.7 GHz Kryo 485)and there is a choice for the GPU as well where you can either rock a Mali-G76 MP12 or an Adreno 640. Now, these may seem like so many versions but really they are only two and for each, the features are listed respectively for Chipset, CPU, and GPU.

I will speak for Snapdragon 855 because I am very familiar with Snapdragon. It is a powerhouse this chipset intended to handle the heaviest of tasks and apps as if they were nothing. The same applies to Exynos 9820 which is its equivalent, just that it is Samsung’s very own made. The performance of the Galaxy S10 is next level you best believe that.

Memory

With Galaxy S10 you get 128GB or 512 GB internal storage and both models run on 8 GB RAM. A Micro SD can be slotted in to expand internal storage up to 512 GB. And since this function uses the SIM 2 slot, only the dual SIM model will accommodate it.

Battery

There is something going on here. It comes with a non-removable Li-Ion 3400 mAh battery the S10 with Fast battery charging 15W, Fast wireless charging 15W, and Power bank/Reverse wireless charging 9W that allows you to wirelessly charge other devices that support wireless charging by resting them on the back glass panel of the S10-cool.

It is hard to draw pros and constable for a smartphone of this nature. The s10 is one of those smartphones that you will mostly find fault in my preference. Like one would say the phone’s looks don’t suit their style or another may not love how loudly impressive the speakers of the S10 is. This is a smartphone you will mostly love for all that it has to offer.
