Previewing the New Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus

-KEY SPECS & MAIN UPGRADES-

The Screen

The new Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus has a 6.8-inch AMOLED Infinity-O display. Its resolution is 3040 x 1440, which is QHD (quad high definition). HDR10 content is supported as well. The 6.8-inch display gives you a good-sized screen for watching videos, looking at pictures, and surfing the web. The impressive display is something that sets the new Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus apart from the rest.

The Camera

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus has a 16MP f/2.2 ultra-wide lens, 12MP regular lens, and 12MP f/2.1 telephoto lens. This combination of lenses all works together to give you more options when taking photos and videos. The front-facing camera is no longer off-center, making the 10-megapixel front-facing camera less distracting. Portrait video options allow you to blur the background of your videos and focus on the subject. As with most smartphone cameras, using the zoom feature still reduces the quality of the image. Samsung also added a zoom-in microphone feature to improve audio quality when recording videos.

Security

On the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus, there have been improvements in the device's security. The fingerprint reader now has increased sensitivity. This makes it easier for the user to utilize the feature. One problem is that there is not a physical button for your finger to touch. This makes it a little bit challenging to find exactly where you need to touch in order to unlock the device. Off-angle touches do not work well either.

The Hardware

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus offers 12GB of RAM. You can choose 256GB or 512GB of built-in storage. The device has a 4,300mAh battery. It charges quickly with the included 25W charger. It can recharge 65% in just 30 minutes. The battery is expected to last about 12 hours, but this does vary by what the phone is being used for. It can also be used as a wireless charger. This works for other devices, like smartwatches and other smartphones.
