Samsung Galaxy S10 is a line of Android smartphones manufactured by Samsung Electronics. The Galaxy S10 series is a celebratory series of the 10th anniversary of the Samsung Galaxy S flagship line. Unveiled during a press event, Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2019 on February 20, 2019, they started shipping on March 8, 2019, and in some regions such as Australia and the United States, they started shipping on March 6, 2019.[5] It is the tenth generation of Galaxy S phones.

As has been done since the Galaxy S9, Samsung unveiled flagship Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ models, differentiated primarily by screen size and an additional front-facing camera on the S10+. In addition, Samsung also unveiled a smaller model known as the Galaxy S10e, as well as a larger, 5G-compatible version, the Galaxy S10 5G.

The Galaxy S10e, S10 and S10+ launch prices started at $749, $899 and $999,[6] while the S10 5G's launch price is $1299.[7]

Specifications

Hardware

The S10 line comprises four models with various hardware specifications; the main S10 and S10+ respectively feature 6.1 and 6.4-inch 1440p "Dynamic AMOLED" displays with HDR10+ support and "dynamic tone mapping" technology.[8] The displays have curved sides that slope over the horizontal edges of the device. Unlike previous Samsung phones, their front-facing cameras occupy a rounded cut-out near the top-right of the display, and both models utilize an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint reader.[5] While providing better performance over the optical in-screen fingerprint readers introduced by other recent phones, they are not compatible with all screen protectors (due to this, the S10 and S10+ are both supplied with a pre-installed plastic screen protector).[5][9]

International models of the S10 utilize the Exynos 9820 system-on-chip, while the U.S., South American and Chinese models utilize the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855.[10][11] The two devices are sold with 128 or 512 GB of internal storage, with the S10+ also being sold in a 1-terabyte model. They respectively contain 3400 and 4100 mAh batteries, supporting Qi inductive charging, and the ability to charge other Qi-compatible devices from their own battery power.[12][5]

The S10 features a multi-lens rear-facing camera setup; it retains the dual-aperture 12-megapixel and 12-megapixel telephoto lenses of the Galaxy S9+, but also adds a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens. The front-facing camera on the S10+ is accompanied by a second RGB depth sensor, which Samsung stated would help improve the quality of photo effects and augmented reality image filters. Both sets of cameras support 4K video recording and HDR10+. The camera software includes a new "Shot Suggestion" feature to assist users, "Artistic Live Filters", as well as the ability to post directly to Instagram posts and stories.[13][14][15][16]

Alongside the main S10 and S10+, Samsung also unveiled two additional models. The S10e is a downsized version of the S10, featuring a smaller, flat 5.8-inch 1080p display with no curved edges. Its fingerprint reader is contained within the power button on the side rather than in-display, and it excludes the 12-megapixel telephoto camera of the S10 (but still includes the dual-aperture 12-megapixel and 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensors).[17] In addition, Samsung announced a larger, phablet-sized premium model known as the S10 5G: it features support for 5G wireless networks, a 6.7-inch display, 256 or 512 GB of non-expandable storage, additional 3D time-of-flight cameras on both the front and rear, and a 4,500 mAh battery. This model will temporarily be exclusive to Verizon Wireless on launch in 2019 before expanding to other carriers in the weeks after launch.[18][16]

Software

The S10 range ships with Android 9.0 "Pie". They are the first Samsung smartphones to ship with a major revamp of Samsung's Android user experience known as One UI.[19] A main design element of One UI is intentional repositioning of key user interface elements in stock apps to improve usability on large screens. Many apps include large headers that push the beginning of content towards the center of the display, while navigation controls and other prompts are often displayed near the bottom of the display instead.[20][21]

Reception

Dan Seifert from The Verge gave the S10 a score of 8.5/10, praising its excellent display, performance, battery life, versatile camera system and headphone jack inclusion. However, he noted that the new in-screen fingerprint scanner was slower and more finicky and camera performance was not as good as the Pixel 3's in low light.[22]

Andrei Frumusanu from AnandTech reported that the Exynos 9820 performed significantly better than last year’s Exynos 9810, however he stated that the Exynos 9820 still couldn't keep up with the Snapdragon 855. He has not tested the power efficiency of the Exynos 9820 yet.[23]

Marques Brownlee praised the S10's One UI for improving one handed usability. He labelled the S10+ as one of the few $1000 smartphones that are worth their price tag.[24]

Jeffrey Van Camp from Wired rated the S10 9/10 for its beautiful all-screen design, fun features, ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, wireless charging with power sharing and headphone jack inclusion. His complaints were that the camera, while fantastic, still couldn't rival the Pixel 3's night shots, it could be hard to find what you want in the settings menus, wireless power sharing was slow and the edges needed palm rejection.[25]

The S10+ received an overall score of 109 from DxOMark; it had a photo score of 114, a video score of 97, and a selfie score of 96.[26] The S10 5G received an overall score of 112 (tying it as the site's top ranked phone along with the P30 Pro) with a photo score of 117, a video score of 100, and a selfie score of 97.[27]
