[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] robbbzilla:
Coming from a Pixel 3xl nightmare to the new Galaxy is a night and day experience.

The cutout is pretty minimal. I don't mind it at all and prefer it to the notch. I also really love the screen. For my older eyes it is really clear and vibrant. Amoled just keeps getting better. The screen is pretty much the entire face of the phone. Pretty impressive and much better solution than a pop up camera.

Battery life seems good, speakers are loud but tinny. They are stereo but most of the sound comes from the bottom firing speaker.

Haven't tried cameras yet.

So far initial impressions are very good. Very fast and responsive except the boot up time. One UI slows things down.

Otherwise this phone is one of the best from Samsung in a while. Build quality is also very good.

The galaxy buds are not a gimmick. I have tried other airpod knock offs and they are okay or terrible. These have impressive dynamic range and decent bass. They fit really well in my ear. I don't like bluetooth or earbuds but I have to admit I like these a lot. Would I pay $129-probably not but I would pay closer to $100. They are really nice to have for free.

When you think about what you get and the trade in offers it makes it pretty hard to say no!

If you can still get the preorder and free Galaxy buds or gift card and do the trade in it is hard not to recommend. It is really feels and performs like a premium device and I don't mean that in a bragging way but to say when you hold it, you can see the attention to detail that went into it and it feels impressive.

I'm enjoying the state of the art 10th anniversary S10+! Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] robbbzilla:
Overall one of the best Samsung Galaxy phones to date. Still wish I could have stock android officially from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] 10thDmenxn:
This is over all, simply the best smartphone ever made. I got mine on the 6th, and have been infatuated with it ever since.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] larsh2017:
When I unboxed my Prism White S10+, I wasn't impressed. Coming from a ceramic Mi Mix 2S, the S10 didn't feel more premium than my Mi Mix. The camera also wasn't that great, and the phone was actually slightly slower than my Mi Mix 2S running on the very fast MIUI. However, after a full day of using the S10+, my mind changed. At first I was ready to return the phone and get a Mi 9 or P30 Pro instead, but now I'm definitely keeping it. The display, the battery, the headphone jack, the galaxy buds, the design..... absolutely love it, already.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] jimsey:
I want to love my new s10+, but I'm not feeling it yet, the fingerprint sensor is not as reliable as my old s9 or my wifes s10e, and the battery is draining faster then my s9+, on the plus side it has double tap tap to wake, which was one if my favourite features on the LG g4 back in 2015

:(

Hoping it grows on me
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] cpufrost:
Anyone notice how much faster the wireless charging engages?

It's as fast as my XS Max (yes, iphone! LOL).

Not the speed of the charging, just the sensitivity to activate. Also does not seem to be nearly as sensitive to placement on the pad. Both my Note 9 and S9+ are picky and if I'm not careful to make sure they are centered on the charger they either won't engage or stop which is annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] shollywood:
Feeling the same way. I think it goes back next week! I've lost 15% battery in an hour and all I've done is read on these forums. Absolutely terrible!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] AntonyW999:
Why did you do it Samsung?

Absolutely superb phone severely crippled by the worst implementation of an in screen fingerprint sensor yet. I got 100% success rate on my OnePlus 6T and about 95% on the Huawaei Mate 20 Pro. I was getting around 50% before the update on the S10+ which has now gone up to around 70%. There doesn't seem to be any consistency to it either. I can put the same finger in exactly the same place and get different results. Sometimes the lightest touch unlocks it, other times I have to carefully place my finger completely flat exactly covering the sensor and frequently it will just keep telling me to press harder. I love the rest of the phone but I'm not sure I can live with this sensor.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] JeyTruth:
Have you recieved the new fingerprint update? Makes the experience so much better.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Luciano2901:
I first bought the normal S10, and then I switched to the S10 + but since the May update the fingerprint sensor was damaged. I wrote to Samsung Members they told me that with the new update the problem was solved but today I update it and it keeps the problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] felipy2k:
Anyone from US could please tell me where to find Best s10 plus deal? I will travel to Orlando this month with my family and I was looking at Best buy ...599 unlocked with activation ... now dunno why 969!!! why Galaxy phones are so expensive over there !
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Androidaddict28:
Amazing.

Such and Amazing phone
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Cabooshy:
My Next Stint with Samsung: Going Great!

Around this time last month my Annual Upgrade was available on my old EE Max Plan with my P20 Pro, i was tempted to wait it out for the Note 10 but decided against it and went with the S10+ instead

In general, Amazing Phone, Exynos SoC's aren't as garbage as they used to be which is great, Camera System is awesome, though i do miss the P20 pro's dedicated monochrome sensor, not the end of the world, the Monochrome Filter is pretty good.

Honestly, OneUI is amazing, its such a change from the old Touchwiz Skins of old, yes it is still a bit bloated but Nowhere as bad as Touchwiz was and a lot of Sammy's Bloat apps are optional now like Samsung Internet and Samsung Pay (Which i cant use because they don't Support Metro Bank like Google Pay Does) and Samsung Good Lock allows you to further tweak OneUI to get it how you want it to look, which is really nice!

Obviously the "big" drawback of the Exynos9820 is the 4G idle battery drain, which i can't account for how bad it was when the phone launched, but from what i've read its not nearly as bad as it used to be.

but then again i can unlock the bootloader so i guess that's nice

overall a great phone so far, and looking forward to spending the next couple of years with it, and many years after that.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] DaTrueDave:
Everything about the phone is great, but the horrible fingerprint reader makes me hate the phone. Why isn't there a category for the fingerprint reader?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
You're a power user. Can the Samsung Galaxy S10+ keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Samsung Galaxy S10+. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Haadkoe:
Considering the carriers have strongarmed the manufacturer into locking the Snapdragon powered S10's bootloader, I'd say they effectively killed the development scene and have ostracized each and every one of the true power users in North America.

I want root access to the device I just forked over $1700 dollars for and own outright. I want a damn 31 band equalizer AND contactless payments AND have the necessary bands required for use in my area...

Is it really that much to ask for?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] 10thDmenxn:
This phone is blazingly fast. Everything I do is in a snap. And it's not just the processor and gpu speed. It's also the way they have setup the One UI. This phone is heads and shoulders above anything I've ever used. I got an Antutu score of 348112 right out of the box. That's seriously impressive.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] sauravdante:
Exynos or SD?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] hitman4274:
No lag here, the phone flys.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Mohamad Gahed:
Me too coming from iPhone X

This is the fastest and best phone I ever used :good:

Exynos version
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] willhub:
fast as .... any faster phones the performance will only really be noticed in benchmarks. Gaming wise I wouldn't even bother thinking about it on a phone so I wouldn't compare that aspect.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] SquireSCA:
I can’t remember the last phone that wasn’t fast. They are all fast.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] more2come:
It actually is more responsive than the iPhone, even the XS. I'm coming from the XS and the S10+ is faster and most of the time as fluid.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Mohamad Gahed:
But not all of them are fluid

It is the first android for me to be as fluid as the iPhone X or better in some cases
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] vojopd:
Yeah, after n8, and s9. This phone is very fluid. I 've put all animations to 0.5x, installed nova, because stock is laggy, and it is very fast.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] richard9601:
After iPhone 6s plus its the heaven lol. But for real I love this phone. Fluid, stable etc
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Zunderstruck:
That phone can get as fast as I need. But it may become way too hot.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Micky 22:
It definately feels snappier and nicer to use than my iphone max, but for intensive tasks like if you're a gamer the iphone trumps it, the frame rate drops and pauses are annoying on the S10+ but for everything else the S10 +seems faster.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Cabooshy:
The Exynos9820 is Bloody Fast

But not as fast as the SD Variant, as per usual, the way OneUI is setup to work with both variants really takes advantage of the SoC's and does not ever feel like the days of old Touchwiz, cause lets be honest, the more they distance themselves from Touchwiz, the better their phones have gotten.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] amace04:
Blazing fast phone. My 3 year old LG was getting waay too sluggish, apps were slow, keyboard was slow, everything was just tired. This phone flies. Very, very happy with my purchase.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] DaTrueDave:
The processing speed is fine, but what good is that when it takes so long to get the phone open using the fingerprint reader that doesn't work most of the time?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] hukhf:
Hallow
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] 878:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] willhub:
It's a shame that's only the 855 version
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
Explain.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] willhub:
I'm referring to processor, from what I can see the exy version is lagging significantly behind the snapdragon l, seems to be behind quite a few phones actually.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
That, I did not know. Looks like both chips have their own drawbacks. Still, benchmarks go in the Exy's hand and we all know their significance online. I don't care, but others buy phones solely on benchmarks & speed tests.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] willhub:
I'm not that bothered except battery life where I'm getting 4.5SoT based on 25 hours off battery. However I always get better battery in the North of the UK due to better signal and speed but also have better WiFi access. Back when I get to Manchester I'm expecting battery life to be worse
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
After a cache wipe in recovery, and wiping data/cache for Play Services things are a bit better. Even so, a company can't expect customers to bother with troubleshooting. When you drop 1K on a phone it should require no adjustments, especially when Sam promised intelligent battery life. This was taken from their site: "Experience the unrivaled all- day phone battery and processor and do almost anything."
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] willhub:
Can I do said tasks without a custom recovery?

Oh interestingly Accubattery also shows my capacity as 3800 and design spec of 4000
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
Sure! Power down. Hold Bixby + Vol Up, then hold power. After a few secs it'll boot to the stock Android recovery. Use the vol buttons to navigate. 4100 is simply for marketing, the actual capacity should be near 4K. I guess some yields are better/worse.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] jonascos:
I think this phone has 3500mh but made it look like its 4100
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] cpufrost:
Real battery capacity can be measured by a full discharge then topping off to full and measuring watt hours returned.

Assuming the rating is 1 - 10 im giving a 4.

I have come from a Pixel 2xl so i guess its a bit of a unfair comparison but mine definitely jitters and stutters at times.

Mainly on apps like Chrome, Twitter, YouTube Vanced, and sometimes even the settings menu.

-Exynos-

I also turned off digital wellbeing and its been butter since.

Side note: Ive also setup as a new device (not restoring from google, or samsung backups). More of a pain, but the battery life now too is unreal

How did you restore your photos and videos?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] enigma4321:
Google photos has all my photos and videos :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] dante_nfs:
the exynos version is being sold on my country , I’m a little concerned about the performance of the exynos version, specially the latency and smoothness

same, i use cloud ecosystem (google mostly) never did an backup or restore, always creates problems and being on a cloud system like google photos or google drive always keeps my locale storage free and lets you change rom or clean install really easy
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Zunderstruck:
Never had any issue with scrolling. Even on a custom app I'm developing.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] bkeaver:
One thing I have noticed is with Dex. I've been using DeX ALOT here lately and I have noticed if I dont exit DeX before unplugging phone I get lag and stutters really bad.. since i have exit DeX it's back to smoothness. I will add that there is no lag or stutter while in DeX it's really a decent experience...

Other than this I have had ZERO lag or stutters
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Micky 22:
This phone is the closest i have seen for smoothness to an iphone yet ( not perfect though). Compared to the Note 9 and S9+ it's quite a difference, they were jittery when scrolling.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] shaananis58:
Mine is an exynos version . Thing is its laggy most of the time . Sometimes I would scroll , but the webpage or something would barely move at all . Also faving lag with the keyboard as well . Turned of digital well-being but still some level of lag is occuring . Same goes for the notification panel pulldown . There are time when in an app I literally swipe like 4 or 5 times yet it does'nt come down . Some help here would really be appreciated

No lag experienced..
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] kinfam:
Coming from the Pixel 3 XL which is butter when it comes to System smoothness so I did see some small performance issues with the UI. Definitely notice some microstuttering when scrolling though System settings, seems to be it's worse when doing that. I just turned off wellbeing so hopefully it makes a difference!!

Even during intense benchmarking, it didn't heat up. You could feel a little warmth near the top of the back, but barely. No actual heat.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
The phone heats up under these conditions: (Slow) wireless charging, downloading over LTE for an extended period, and playing games. For everything else it's comparable, yet, slightly warmer than my Note. The sensors report low 30s, whereas S10 is showing low 40s under the same apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] gabytzubc:
My device feel kinda warm...no extensive gaming or something like that, after playing a bit and made antutu test,antutu reported that my cpu had 63 °C ..and 250k points.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Xak:
If it feels warm do you have your brightness all the way up and max brightness? Also using it without a case? Think of how thin the device is and how good and bright the screen is heat is coming from screen you can feel when grabbing without case.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] mackymariano:
Getting hot while gaming

Playing Mobile Legends on High settings (Graphics - High, High Quality Display - On, High framerate mode - On, WQHD+) and the phone gets hot with just 1 game (approx. 15 minutes). Playing another game immediately results to less smooth gameplay. Not expecting this because we're supposed to have cooling :(
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Ace42:
Exynos?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] mackymariano:
Yes. Forgot to add I have a ceramic unit which I know is better than glass when it comes to temperature.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Corv0:
It doesn't get warmer than 30°C no matter the game or benchmark, the vapor cooling seems to do the job, Exynos.

https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S10/Galaxy-10-ceramic-back-512-GB-overheating/m-p/473143 this article puts me at ease, so I think I'm good :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Corv0:
No, have a quick trip to your kitchen and think about all the ceramic tools you have, and why they are made of ceramic.

Ceramic can be both used in thermal isolation and dissipation, 90% of the time it is used to isolate, since it has to be processed specifically to do the opposite.

That's the price you have to pay for having the ceramic version, the back fails to lose temperature just like the average coffee can, it's not a big deal unless you run intensive tasks every day.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] bhageerathreddyy:
I am running an Exynos 512GB Cermaic Black S10 Plus. Even without any usage and phone left in idle mode.. CPU Monitor is showing the temperature as 38-40 degrees. My friends 128GB Prism White is always around 32 degrees. Even my Exynos Note 9 is around the same ball park. So I'm little worried about my nee S10 Plus. Ideally is shouldn't touch 40 degrees that too in idle mode right?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Real Life Review] Outbreak444:
Verizon Snapdragon 1TB Ceramic Black here

My average temp is 90°F (32°C)

The hottest I have gotten this phone to go is 108.5°F (42.5°C) when I transferred my old SD card contents directly onto my phone's internal storage. I transferred about 60GB of data that took about 15 minutes max using Samsung's T5 external SSD connected directly to my phone. So not only was I transferring a lot of files but I was also powering an external device via USB. Gotta say, I am impressed at how well it performed.
