so Samsung just announced a new phone it's called the Galaxy Note 10 has
started actually that's in October anyways we have three new phones from
Samsung guys that's right three models for the note series starting with a note
10 the note 10 plus and the note 10 5g now isn't 5g really interesting let me
know in the comments down below now I got to spend some time with the note 10
and I think it's too early to come up with any conclusions given the price and
the features it offers so I'm just gonna spill all the beans every specs features
basically everything that you need to know about the Galaxy Note 10
a quick message from our sponsor the razor blade Pro 17 pushing performance
to the edge what edge the edge where the snakes live
it is now smaller and lighter than previous generations and cooler under
heavy workloads thanks to additional fans and vapor chamber cooling the
display is also factory calibrated for beautiful colors and impressively thin
bezels to please your eyeballs for work and play with high performance max Q
GPUs also let's not forget the wonderful connectivity options to future-proof
this notebook the Razer Blade Pro 17 check it out below
alright so what's new with the Galaxy Note 10 the design does look a little
bit different from the note 9 so you're still getting the same boxy shape versus
curved on the S10 series they've also reduced the size of the aluminum frame
and have increased the amount of glass so durability is certainly a question
mark and yes it is a curved display so there's that next up is the display and
keyboard warriors prepare those fingers cuz this is gonna get really interesting
so the note 10 comes with a six point three inch 1080p dynamic AMOLED display
that's right 1080p on a flagship phone let that sink in for a moment you see to
give you a little bit of context the galaxy note5
featured a 1440p display with a higher pixel density than the note 10 guys
that's a four year old phone so take that for what it is and let's move on
the note 10 plus comes with a six-point eight inch qHD plus display and all of
these models are HD are 10 plus certified just like the s10 I did wish
if Samsung went with a 90 hurt screen but unfortunately we're still stuck with
60 Hertz now you might also notice the camera cut out of the center it actually
reminds me of Raven from Teen Titans you guys might disagree on me with that but
nonetheless it looks different from the galaxy s 10 which was located on the top
right hand side I have mixed feelings about this type of implementation but
I'd like to hear your thoughts about this do you prefer this design over the
s10 also I should also mention that the selfie camera features a 10 megapixel
sensor with an F 2.2 aperture it's certainly a downgrade from the note 9
featuring an F one point seven eight megapixel sensor so I'm really curious
to see how this will play out in low-light environments oh and let's take
a moment to say farewell to the headphone jack I mean we saw this coming
and there's another feature that they took off and that's expandable storage
on the note 10 but not the note 10 plus which i think is ridiculous
Samson's only offering one variant of the note 10 and that comes with 8
gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage the note 10 plus comes with 12
bits of RAM with users being able to choose between 256 or 512 gigs of
storage by the way they are ufs 3.0 the battery size has also been reduced on
the note 10 so it features 3500 milliamp hours
that's 500 milliamp hours less than note 9 600 less than the S 10 plus but the
note 10 plus features a 4,300 milliamp hour battery you see at this point the
note 10 doesn't really look all that impressive on paper but it gets worse so
pay close attention here so both the no 10 and the
10-plus come with 25 watt chargers out of the box but the note 10 plus supports
samsung's new 45 watt chargers and those are sold separately here's another fact
the note 10 supports 12 watt wireless charging whereas the note 10 plus can
support up to 15 watts the rest of the features except for the s-pen are
essentially a copy and paste from the s10 series so you get ip68
water-resistant reading wireless power share wireless charging the ultrasonic
fingerprint scanner is supposedly the same from the s10 I really wasted they
made some improvements here all right so let's switch gears and talk about the
s-pen the most important feature of the note series I actually really enjoyed my
time using the s-pen on the note 9 I'll be not as extensively but it was pretty
cool to play around with so the s-pen on the note n is slightly
redesigned to make it more ergonomic but they've added some more features over
the previous generation it can edit your handwriting and they've also implemented
air actions which is basically gesture controls with the s-pen you can swipe by
holding the button and navigate through the gallery music skip through video you
can use that to switch between the three different cameras as well at the back
then there's a our doodle and as the name suggests you can doodle with the
s-pen on a person and it would track that work which is pretty cool Samsung
Dex is also getting a pretty big update so with previous Galaxy phones you
needed an HDMI cable and a monitor to get text started up but with the Galaxy
Note 1000s B cable that comes with the phone and you can plug it into a noble
computer or a desktop PC and Dex would automatically start up essentially it
will open a window within windows and you can seamlessly transfer files back
and forth but I thought the whole point of Dex was to replace your notebook your
PC or your whole computer this just seems to be I mean if you have a laptop
on you why would you switch over to Dex because Windows is still superior to Dex
in my opinion but I mean I'm curious to investigate this a little bit further on
so certainly stay tuned for that now you can also use a regular DisplayPort cable
and hook it up to a monitor and pay the note 10 with other accessories and
have decks as a standalone setup to wrap things up let's quickly go over the
cameras well actually there isn't anything new here the note 10 features
the exact same triple camera layout STS 10 so you get the ultra wide-angle lens
standard and telephoto no hardware improvements here I do like the vertical
style of these cameras over the horizontal on ES 10 but that's just me I
should also mention that the note 10 plus comes with a depth sensor that lets
you track or scan an object in 3d and then you can do all sorts of creative
stuff with it which is pretty cool I'm actually really looking forward to
testing that when I get my hands on that but I also want to give a few thoughts
between the don't ten and a know ten plus one of the things that I noticed
was that the note 10 is actually a little bit smaller than the note 9 so
essentially what they have done is that they taken the note 9 and they've
chopped those bezels from that phone and they made the note 10 with underwhelming
specs but the note n+ feels very much similar to the note 9 in terms of size
and it feels about the same albeit that thin aluminum frame is a bit concerning
for me I'm not sure how it durable that would be but I guess we're just not to
test it out in the long term so definitely stay tuned for our full
review so pricing for the note 10 starts at 950 dollars for the base model and
the note 10 plus starts at $1,100 and the 5g version is a Verizon exclusive so
here's my quick take on the Galaxy Note 10 and please don't consider this as a
full review you see I'm pretty disappointed with
this announcement because if you take a step back and analyze at what the note
series was really known for things like a bigger display bigger battery s-pen
headphone jack expandable storage all of those just come to mind it was the phone
for super users but the note end does come with compromises and that's kind of
unacceptable considering being close to the thousand dollar price tag it comes
with a 1080p display shorter battery no expandable storage it just doesn't sound
right the note 10 plus on the other hand looks
like an upgrade over the note 9 with a bigger battery bigger display and more I
think Samson is trying to capitalize on the s-pen with the
regular no.10 but guys you don't have to spend that much money to get an awesome
flash of Android like experience the Galaxy Note 9 is still an awesome phone
heck the Galaxy S 10 is definitely worth its price or its current price right now
in fact we've been seeing a lot of inexpensive phones getting really good
as well so at this point I really want to know your thoughts about the Galaxy
Note 10.1 in the comments down below I'm signing off and I'll talk to you guys in
the next one
