\nSamsung\u2019s Galaxy 10 lineup might be one of the more interesting smartphones to land early next year and it might not all be for good reasons. While at least one or two of the trio will be bringing some features never before seen on a Samsung phone, they might also have features fans would probably not want to see ever. Yes, that\u2019s referring to the contentious \u201cInfinity-O\u201d style cutouts, which the Galaxy S10+ might be taking to a whole new level of insanity. This latest leak, however, may or may not offer a reprieve.
Notches have been mostly criticized because of how they eat into parts of the screen. Others would argue, however, that they actually extend the screen beyond its usual boundaries. In the case of the Infinity-O cutouts, however, they really do cut into screen space. And in the case of the Galaxy S10+, the circle even comes elongated.
A new leak may offer a different angle on that. Slightly. This prototype does confirm that the dual cameras do lie on the same row as the notification panel. It could, however, just cutout a corner of the screen. It\u2019s pretty hard to tell, given the \u201c anti-leak film \u201d being used to ineffectively hide its identity.
Samsung\u2019s Infinity-O design is bound to be met with some resistance and criticism, depending on how well or poorly it\u2019s implemented. It could look like change for change\u2019s sake without putting it first to the test. That said, Samsung will actually be testing the idea in the wild to a limited extent with the Galaxy A8s this week. That, however, won\u2019t be able to test how the market will receive such a big, oblong cutout.<\/p>\n
