This year’s first Samsung Unpacked event brings some big changes for Samsung’s flagship handsets—from displays to cameras and fingerprint readers, there’s a lot of new stuff in the S10 lineup. There’s even a new phone.
Before we get into the details of each, let’s take a closer look at the four handsets themselves:
- Galaxy S10: The smaller of the flagship-level handsets with a 6.1-inch display.
- Galaxy S10 Plus: The big boy of the bunch, featuring a big ol’ 6.4-inch panel.
- Galaxy S10 5G: The Galaxy S10 with 5G connectivity…and a bigger screen, more cameras, and other goodies.
- Galaxy S10E: The newcomer to the S family and the most affordable of the trio. It’s also the smallest, offering a 5.8-inch display.
Oh, and right out of the gate: All four phones have headphone jacks. Headphone jacks!
But now, let’s talk about all the goodies in each.
Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus
The S10, the smaller of the two flagship handsets It features a 6.1-inch display with a 3040×1440 display resolution and Samsung’s “Infinity O” hole-punch display instead of an unsightly notch. The S10 Plus is pretty much identical, but it bumps the screen size up to 6.4-inches. That O cutout is super clean and makes for some of the smallest bezels we’ve seen in a handset like this.
The display is also the first from Samsung to pack an in-display fingerprint reader, moving the reader from the back of the phone to the front. Funny, the evolution of the fingerprint reader in Samsung phones was: in the home button (on the front), to the back, and back to the front (in the display). Everything old is new again!
