At its “Unpacked” event in San Francisco, along with the Samsung Galaxy S10, the company also announced its bigger variant, dubbed Samsung Galaxy S10+.
In terms of design, the Galaxy S10+ is similar to the Galaxy S10 in many ways. The phone features a larger 6.4-inch Quad HD+ Curved Dynamic AMOLED Infinity-O Display, offering a pixel density of 522ppi and 19:9 aspect ratio.
Just like the Galaxy S10, this one too is powered by either Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 7nm processor or the Samsung Exynos 9820 8nm processor. It packs 8GB and 12GB LPDDR4x RAM and offers three options in terms of internal storage — 128GB, 512GB, and 1TB. It also has a microSD card slot for expanding the storage capacity.
The rear camera of the Galaxy S10+ is similar to its smaller sibling — a 12-megapixel telephoto lens, a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens, and a 16-megapixel ultra wide-angle lens. However, on the front side, it features a dual camera setup — a first from Samsung. It consists of a 10-megapixel primary sensor and an 8-megapixel fixed focus RGB depth sensor featuring an f/2.2 aperture and a 90-degree lens.
In terms of software, the Galaxy S10+ runs on Android 9 Pie operating system out-of-the-box with the company’s own One UI custom skin on top. Connectivity options on the smartphone include Dual SIM, 4G VoLTE (LTE Cat. 20),Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax (2.4/5GHz), Bluetooth v5.0, GPS/ A-GPS, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port.
This one too features Qualcomm’s ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. The phone is powered by a 4,100mAh battery with fast charging support as well as Fast Wireless Charge 2.0 that also offers reverse wireless charging.
The Samsung Galaxy S10+ will be available for purchase from 8th March and its pricing starts at $999.99. It will be available in six color options — Prism Black, Prism Blue, Prism Green, Prism White, Ceramic Black, and Ceramic White.
