This year’s Samsung’s top-of-the-line smartphones aim to impress with an almost bezel-less curved display, full-screen design with a cutout for its camera, reverse wireless charging, ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, 5 cameras onboard, and more. The Galaxy S10+ is just one of the three models in the high-end range, so let’s dig into the Samsung Galaxy S10+ review.
Here’s our unboxing video of the Samsung Galaxy S10+ below.
Looking at the phone, the first noticeable thing is its Infinity-O full-screen display with a small cutout for its dual selfie cameras. The screen is almost bezel-less with sides having curves for its Edge panel feature. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 6.
The rest of the design is similar to the predecessor, it has a glass back protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5 with stainless steel frames on the sides giving a shiny silver look. The build quality is excellent, the gaps are tight and even. It’s also IP68 rated meaning the phone is water and dust resistant.
Samsung also moved to the new fingerprint scanner technology that we saw on the HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro and other phones. It has an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner located on the screen that unlocks the phone when you put your thumb on the display.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 + is offered in two special models with a ceramic back and this is the black color ceramic variant. The case this time is hard, unlike the predecessor using a soft silicone case.
The bottom has a USB Type-C port, 3.5mm, stereo loudspeakers (another at the earpiece). The top carries hybrid SIM tray with 2x nano SIM slots and a microSD slot on SIM2. The left side has a Bixby key as usual and power key and volume control on the right.
The Samsung Galaxy S10+ sports a 6.4-inch Infinity-O curved Dynamic AMOLED display with a resolution of Quad HD+ (3040 x 1440 pixels) and aspect ratio of 19:9.
The screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 6 with almost bezel-less and has a small cutout for its dual selfie cameras for full view display. The cutout is similar to the notch and you can hide it if not needed, it will add a black bar to the cutout area.
Speaking of the quality of the display, you have one of the most beautiful looking curved AMOLEDs with a high amount of brightness. The display supports HDR10+ content and is the first smartphone ever to record the HDR10+ videos.
You get display enhancements like Blue light filter, night mode, screen color modes with color balance options, changing screen resolution, and a handful of other features for Edge panel and Home screen.
