- What's up guys.
Saf here, on SuperSaf TV.
And we have here the brand new
Samsung Galaxy S10+ for unboxing.
I've literally just got back from the impact event
and I couldn't resist.
'Cause I need to get this outside of the box.
Now if you're interested in the regular S10 or the S10E
I've covered those in detail
and also compared them to the S10+
in one of my previous videos.
I'll link that in the cards and in the description.
In this video, we're going to be taking a look at this S10+.
Let's get it open.
This video is brought to you by Squarespace,

Now the box is different compared to what we've had
over previous years and it's apparently
also eco-friendly this year.
Thumbs up.
And the S10+ logo here at the front
extends all the way past the edges of the front of the box
and I think that's to hint
the almost bezeless design of the S10+.
And it is in white and this may be because
I've got the prism white color.
I'm not sure if you're going to have different color logos
on different color devices.
Let's break this seal.
Okay, this is seriously excessive to break this small seal,
but hey, just about without damaging the box or my table.
Right, lets get this opened.
Oh yeah, I'm so excited.
Look at that.
Okay, that looks really really good.
I'm going to resist and put this to the side for just a second
while we see what else we get inside the box.
Now the first thing I'm actually noticing
is that all the accessories are white
which I'm assuming may be because we got the white version.
I don't know if you're going to get different colored versions
for different colored devices.
But if that is the case, that's going to be absolutely dope.
Right, here's everything else that we get inside the box
laid out on the table.
We've got a quick starter guide, there is a power brick
which does support adaptive fast charging.
We've got a USB type A to USB type C cable.
And then we've got some AKG earphones.
Now these have a braided cable, as well as a 3.5mm connector
and that's because the S10+ does have a 3.5mm jack
and a lot of you guys are super happy that Samsung
have still included this this year.
In addition to that, we also have a sim card ejector tool.
And Samsung always includes a few adapters.
So we've got a full size USB to USB type C.
And we've also got a micro USB to USB type C adapter.
So if you've got an old phone
and you want to transfer your data over,
it's going to be nice and easy to do that.
But now let's get to the best part
and that is removing this plastic.
Ready for it guys?
Aw that is so satisfying.
Now the first thing you'll notice about this prism white
is that it actually gives off a bit of rainbow reflection
depending on the way the light hits it.
It looks very very slick indeed.
It's also curved along the edges
and we've got a silver metal frame
which feels very very premium.
Let's take off this front screen protector as well.
(plastic rustles)
So so satisfying.
Right, now let's take a closer look around the device
and I'll talk you through all of the new features.
The first thing we have to look at
is this beautiful display.
We've got a 6.4 inch dynamic AMOLED display
and this is the world's first mobile display
to support HDR10+
It looks absolutely stunning.
Now you can see that we've got minimal bezels,
completely maximizing that screen to body ratio.
There is a slight chin, I know a few people
are going to be going on about that,
but I've already compared this to the iPhone 10S max
and if you look at the bezel of the iPhone 10S max,
it's only slightly smaller compared to this so called chin.
Screen to body ratio is awesome,
you really don't have anything to complain about.
The display also has quad HD plus resolution,
so details are super sharp and crispy.
And I'm just going to go ahead and say this.
This currently has the best mobile display
on any smart phone out there right now.
You can tell everybody that that's what SuperSaf said.
I absolutely love this display.
Now of course to achieve this maximum screen to body ratio
Samsung have had to put the front-facing camera somewhere.
We've seen other solutions where there is mechanical pop-ups
and things like that.
But Samsung have opted for their Infinity-O design.
So this is a punch out for the front-facing cameras.
And you can see that we've got two here.
And I know that this punch out design is subjective
and some of you guys may like it or not.
I personally don't mind it,
it is nicely tucked away here in the corner.
And Samsung have very cleverly made all of their wallpapers
a little bit more dark on the top hand corner
so you don't really notice it as much.
But you will notice it when you pull down the settings
and things like that.
Let me know in the comments below what you think of it.
I do prefer this to a notch.
Now within this punch out,
we do have two front-facing cameras.
So the primary camera is 10 megapixels
with an F1.9 aperture.
And it also has dual pixel auto focus this year.
This is something that we have only had
with rear-facing cameras before.
And with that higher resolution,
we can now form 4K UHD from the front-facing camera.
I cannot wait to test this out.
The secondary camera is eight megapixels
with an F2.2 aperture
and this is going to be used for depth information.
I was hoping that it would be a wide-angle camera
but it is only for depth information
and that should improve your live focus selfies.
Having said that, within the camera app
there is a wide option.
Now I assume this is doing it with software not hardware
because this option is also available on the S10
as well as the S10E and those all have
a single front-facing camera.
Also within this display is the
ultrasonic finger print scanner which sits about here.
And it seems to work really well,
you can go to it straight from when the screen is off
or from the lock screen and it works so much better
compared to the optical solutions that we have currently.
Now because of the tiny bezels, unfortunately
there is no space for an LED notification light.
I've had a look around in the settings and everything
and I can't see one there.
I know that's something a few people will be upset about
but as a compromise, you do get these tiny bezels.
There's an earpiece and that also
acts as one of the stereo speakers.
There's one here at the bottom.
And at the bottom, you also have the USB type C input.
As well as a 3.5mm jack, as mentioned earlier on.
At the top, we've got the SIM card tray
and this also has space for a micro SD card.
So you can expand the storage on this
and it already comes with a base of 128 gigabytes.
But there's also a 512 as well as a
1 terabyte option available.
At higher prices of course,
but that means you can get up to 1.5 terabytes of storage
in total, including the expandable storage on the S10+.
That's absolutely insane.
The version I have here also supports dual SIM cards.
So I can have two sims active here at the same time.
However, I can't have the second SIM card
as well as the micro SD card.
I have to choose between those two for the second SIM card.
Now this may vary depending on your reasons
so do check that out.
On the right hand side, there is the power button.
There's volume rocker on the left hand side
as well as the Bixby button.
Now, I know a lot of you guys don't like
this Bixby button and Samsung is
finally going to allow us to remap this to whatever we like.
However, this is currently not available
on this early software version.
It's going to be coming in later on with a software update.
Now let's move towards the back
and talk about these cameras.
And this time for the S10+, we have a triple camera set up.
And Samsung have covered all bases.
The primary camera is 12 megapixels
and it has a variable aperture like we had last year.
So that's going to switch between F1.5 and F2.4.
Depending on the lighting in your scene,
this also has optical image stabilization.
The secondary camera is the telephoto camera
with optical image stabilization.
12 megapixels and this has an F2.4 aperture.
It's going to give you two times optical zoom
so it's going to allow you to get in closer to your subjects.
And the new lens that we have this year
is the ultra wide.
And this is something that I'm so so happy about.
This is 16 megapixels, has an F2.2 aperture,
and around about a 123 degree angle of view.
So for your landscapes and if you're in a
tight space or whatever, this is going to be so so useful.
Of course, we need to test out these cameras
in depth, SuperSaf style.
Let me know in the comments below which camera comparison
you'd like me to do first of the S10+ against.
Now we've also got some major improvements for video,
there is 4k at up to 60 frames per second.
And we've got super steady capture.
And this is going to give you almost
near action cam stabilization.
I've had a brief test with this
and it looks very very impressive.
But not only that, the S10s are also the world's first
smartphones to support HDR10+ video recording.
So not only do you have a HDR10+ display,
you can also record video with HDR10+
which is going to give you some great dynamic range
and lots of vibrant colors.
Once again, I absolutely cannot wait to test this out more.
And Samsung has also opened up their SDK for their camera.
So other apps, such as Instagram and Snapchat
will be more optimized for the S10 and that means
we're no longer going to have crappy quality on Android.
The S10+ is going to give you absolutely awesome quality
on Instagram and Snapchat and other apps.
I'm so looking forward to this.
Now having a look at the build, it's got
Samsung's signature curved design.
So both sides are curved, feels really nice in the hand,
looks very very slick.
We've got either glass options or ceramic options as well.
Ceramic options are going to be more durable
and feel more premium.
I wouldn't go as far as saying that this is one of the
best looking and most premium smartphones
you can buy right now, but you also have
IP68 water and dust resistance.
Now internally, the S10+ is powered by either
the Qualcomm snapdragon 855 processor or
Samsung's Exynos 9820.
I've got the Exynos version here because I'm in Europe.
And Samsung have said that we've got
29% faster CPU performance and 37% faster GPU performance.
And along with that, you get a base
of eight gigabytes of RAM.
But there is also a 12 gigabyte of RAM version available.
So in terms of gaming and performance,
I've got no doubt that this is going to be super speedy.
If there is a specific speed test you want me to do
of the S10+ versus another device
then definitely let me know in the comments below.
We've got 1UI here on top of android pie.
I'm really digging 1UI so far, it's very very smooth
and it brings everything down to make it
more reachable with one hand so for instance
if I'm here in the messages app.
You can see that we've got this header
and we've got all of the controls here at the bottom
so I'm not going to have to keep reaching up
to go to the latest message or anything like that.
It's all going to be down here, reachable.
Now finally, let's talk about the battery.
So we've got a relatively large, 4100mAh battery in the S10+
and this Samsung have said should give you
25% better battery life compared to the S9+
which was pretty decent.
But it doesn't stop there.
We have fast charging out of the box, as you know.
But we now have fast wireless charging 2.0,
which is supposedly 36% faster compared to
what we had last year and that was already
one of the fastest out there.
And this year, we also have wireless power share.
This is basically reverse wireless charging,
where you can use your S10+ to charge another device
that supports Qi wireless charging.
Whether that's a smartphone or even if it's an accessory.
So we've got the new Galaxy buds,
which you can wirelessly charge using the S10+.
Now, I'm not sure of the exact speed of it.
I am going to have to spend some more time and test it out.
One of my criticisms of the Huawei Mate 20 Pro
was that it was super slow.
Let's see how fast this will be.
Pricing wise, this does start at £900 in the UK
or around $1000 in the US.
And if you do want to go for the top of the line
ceramic version, that is going to set you
back around £1400 or $1600.
Now that device does have a terabyte of storage
with 12 gigabytes of RAM, so you are paying more
for those premium features.
And that is the Samsung Galaxy S10+ unboxing.
And a run through of all of its features.
I'm really digging it so far.
I love this curve design, I love all of the features.
Samsung have ticked off so so many boxes.
Definitely let me know in the comments below
what you think of the S10+ so far.
