When inspecting a screen, remove any screen protectors and cases first. Tilt the device under good lighting conditions and inspect it at multiple angles. Screen damage includes hairline cracks that are difficult to see.

Wearables like Apple & Samsung watches often don"t have visible LDIs. Check for moisture under the display screen, as well as corrosion, discoloration, and fuzzy growth on the charging connection.

If the device does not fully turn on and load the home screen or if it cannot stay on without being connected to a charger, it"s considered not able to turn on.

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus is a phone for everyone. Samsung is moving away from giving everything to the power users, and towards giving everyone the power.

This device is no longer widely available. The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus is now unavailable to buy from most retailers. If you are looking for an alternative device, check out our list of the best Android phones you can buy and the best Samsung phones.

The Samsung Galaxy Note has always been known as the do-everything device. Since the first Galaxy Note back in 2011, Samsung has used the series to rethink what our smartphones should be able to do, not to mention the sheer size of what we can do these things on.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 doesn’t reinvent anything we’ve seen on previous Notes. Rather, like the Galaxy Note 9, it iterates in a lot of departments to feel more modern, for better or worse.

The Note 10 Plus is bigger, faster, and thinner than ever before, but I get the feeling Samsung is shifting its market demographic from the power user who wants it all, to all the users, who also happen to want power.

About this review: I used a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus review unit supplied by the manufacturer over a period of eight days. I used the Aura Glow model with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, running One UI version 1.5, based on Android 9 Pie.

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus is Samsung’s biggest, boldest Galaxy Note yet. It has a slimmer design, more screen than ever before, and an S Pen that has learned some new tricks. Almost all of its new features are in the name of refinement, but that refinement is dictated by design and mass-market appeal, not necessarily by functionality.

This isn’t to say the Galaxy Note 10 Plus isn’t a powerful device, or that putting design first is inherently bad. With a Snapdragon 855 processor, 12GB of RAM, and a baseline of 256GB of UFS 3.0 storage, this thing flies. The screen is bigger and brighter, the battery is bigger and charges faster. The Note 10 Plus is, undoubtedly, the most refined Note yet.

But when you look at everything as a whole, it’s clear what guided the direction of the Note this generation. With the Note 9, Samsung slung huge banner ads reading “4,000mAh” and “1TB.” These were the major selling points for the phone. With the 10 series, it’s not about that at all. The Note 10 Plus is still better than ever, because if it wasn’t Samsung’s “best Note ever,” it wouldn’t sell any units. But if you look at the key marketing points of the Note 10 series, it is all about design.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus comes with a 25W charging brick, but this brick supports USB Power Delivery (USB-PD). This means the charger and the phone can communicate to determine how many volts and amps are used when charging. You can learn more about USB-PD here.

25W charging provides a good balance between charging speed and long term battery health. Optionally, you can buy a 45W charger that will fill up the battery even faster. It costs $50 on Samsung.com.

Samsung also includes a USB-A (female) to USB-C (male) adapter in the box. This used to be included to allow you to transfer data from your old Android device if you didn’t have a USB-C to USB-C cable, but now that Samsung includes one in the box, this seems fairly pointless.

With the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S10 series, Samsung refreshed its design to feel brand new. With the launch of Note 10, Samsung is following this evolution, to an even more extreme degree.

The Note 10 Plus’s bezels are smaller than nearly any phone Samsung has ever produced. Instead of putting the camera cutout in the top right corner though, Samsung has moved the camera cutout to the top center. I like this design because it doesn’t feel like it gets in the way of your content. I was already happy with the Infinity-O display in the S10 series, but this cutout is even smaller. This does come at the expense of a smaller camera aperture compared to the Note 9 ⁠— another indication that Samsung was obsessive about making this device beautiful. Front-facing camera shots still look great though, so this is a fine trade-off for me.

The body of the Note 10 Plus is boxy, which is a tradition for Note devices. This year, the phone feels even boxier, but I’ve grown to like it. Note 9 felt like it wanted to be boxy but still added a curve to the corners. While this phone is not as squared off as the Razer Phone 2 or an old Sony Xperia, the relatively squared-off design with curved sides feels nice in the hand.

The Note 10 Plus is considerably thinner than the Note 9, at just 7.9mm versus 8.8mm on the Note 9. Interestingly though, even with a huge 6.8-inch display, it maintains about the same footprint as the Note 9, mostly due to the reduced bezels. I would have preferred the device remained the same thickness and include an even larger battery, but like with other refinements this phone has made, the design was clearly a priority.

The back of the phone looks elegant, with a vertical triple-camera system down the left side. Other than two flash LEDs and a depth camera, the back of the phone is totally clean. On my Aura Glow model, the phone refracts light to create some amazing colors. The Galaxy S10 Prism White shifted from white to blue to red, but the Aura Glow Note 10 Plus can turn just about any color of the rainbow. It’s one of the most visually appealing phones I’ve ever seen and has been one of Samsung’s key marketing points for the device, again, for better or worse.

I appreciate beautiful technology, so if Samsung was going to make the glass a solid sheet of Gorilla Glass 6, I’m glad it put in the extra effort to make it shine.

The sides of the phone have a much thinner aluminum frame than the Note 9 and even the S10. The glass wraps around the edges more, almost feeling like a solid extruded piece. It looks nicer than a thicker metal frame, but from the moment I saw this phone I was worried about it breaking. Lo and behold, two days later, that became the case. My unit managed to slide off a table onto concrete from about four feet up and hit the bottom left corner, causing hairline fractures. Unfortunately, this is a necessary trade-off. Samsung likely used this glass-heavy design to maintain consistency with the 5G model, which needs more glass on the sides for its mmWave antennas to work. We saw nearly the same design on the Galaxy S10 5G.

This introduces an interesting conversation as to whether or not you’re willing to trade fragility for beauty. The Galaxy Note 10 is one of the prettiest phones I’ve used. But extra glass also means it’s slightly more fragile because more glass introduces more risk. You’ll need to decide if you’d rather use a case and save it from damage, or keep it naked and take in how pretty it is.

On the bottom of the phone, you’ll find a slot for the iconic S Pen, a speaker grille, and a microphone, but no headphone jack. I’ll continue to hammer this in: Headphone jacks should not be removed until we have a ubiquitous replacement. Currently, the state of USB-C headphones is abysmal, to put it lightly, and Bluetooth is still clunky. The fact that the headphone jack has become a mid-range feature is disgusting, and no one should be punished for not having the funds or preferring to not purchase expensive Bluetooth headphones.Best wireless headphones for the Note 10 and 10 Plus

The right side of the device is clear of any buttons or ports. Samsung instead opted to move the power button to the left side, right under the volume rockers. This is where the Bixby button used to be, but now it’s been completely removed. I’m honestly fine with this change. At first, I thought it would be hard to turn the device on and off, but I usually use the in-display fingerprint sensor anyway, and I can easily turn the device on and off with my index finger versus my thumb. Like most things, this took about a day to get used to, but then it felt completely normal.

On the top, you’ll find a SIM tray with microSD expansion, a speaker, and a microphone. (The standard model Galaxy Note 10 does not have microSD expansion.)

Like the Note 9, the Galaxy Note 10 Plus continues Samsung’s heritage of having one of the best displays on the market. This isn’t surprising considering Samsung is the biggest AMOLED manufacturer on the planet.

Samsung has won 13 DisplayMate awards for the display on the Note 10 Plus, and I would say the awards are justified. The Note 10 Plus’ Dynamic AMOLED display looks brilliant. It’s bright and punchy but not overly saturated, and you have the option to use a “vivid” color profile if you’d prefer a bit more punch. HDR 10 and HDR+ certification also gives you much more information in the shadows and highlights of HDR content, so if you’re watching that extremely dark episode of Game of Thrones, you should be able to see a lot better.

Before its announcement, rumors circulated that the Galaxy Note 10 would have a 90Hz display, but that’s not the case. We’ve seen devices from OnePlus and Asus with high refresh rate displays this year, but Samsung stuck to 60Hz in the Note 10 series. A higher refresh rate would have been nice, but since most apps don’t support higher rates quite yet, it’s not a deal-breaker for me personally. 90Hz is not yet something the mass market is asking for, and with the Note 10 Plus, features seem to have been guided by wider consumer needs, not power users.

As for the size, 6.8-inches is pretty massive, but surprisingly the phone doesn’t feel unwieldy. I don’t know if I’m just slowly getting more accustomed to larger devices, but the Note 10 Plus feels pleasant to use. This is probably due to the 19:9 aspect ratio. Because the Note 10 Plus is effectively the same footprint as the Note 9 with more screen and less bezel, it feels familiar.

I am using the default One UI launcher, which makes elements on the screen larger and easier to reach versus other launchers, so this may be part of why the screen feels so usable. I tried the Galaxy S10 Plus again after using the Note for a few days and it felt tiny by comparison. Funny how we adapt to these things.

Samsung has also put the same ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor that we saw in the Galaxy S10 series in this device. It’s not any newer than the one we saw previously, but it seems more accurate. Where the S10 seemingly misread my fingerprint more than it read it correctly, the Note 10 Plus has had a much higher success rate. This may be attributed to the fact that Samsung moved the sensor higher on the display than it was on the S10 Plus, making it easier to press naturally. While it isn’t perfect, and I had much more success with the OnePlus 7 Pro‘s giant optical sensor, readings have improved for me.

Based on the specs, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus should fly, and it does — I didn’t notice any hiccups or stuttering while using the phone, in line with other Snapdragon 855 devices, especially those with 12GB of RAM.

In benchmarks, the Galaxy Note 10 Plus scores well. It achieved a score of 369,029 in AnTuTu, compared to the 360,414 on the Galaxy S10 Plus. In 3DMark, it achieved a score of 5,692 compared to the S10 Plus’ score of 5,239. In Geekbench it nabbed 3,434 and 10,854 for the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively versus the 3513 and 11148 scores on the Galaxy S10 Plus. In Gary’s Speed Test G, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus finished the course in 1:30:381, besting the Galaxy S10 by about two seconds.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus uses a 4,300mAh battery, up 300mAh from the Galaxy Note 9. This isn’t a huge bump considering the screen went from 6.4-inches to 6.8-inches, and while it can certainly last you a full day on a charge, this isn’t going to be a two-day device, at least for a heavy user.

One day, I got 5 hours and 2 minutes of screen-on time. The next, I got 7 hours and 33 minutes. On average, if I unplugged my phone at around 9 am, it would be near dead by around midnight.

This isn’t to say the Note 10 Plus has bad battery life — it’s just fine. I was hoping for a bigger battery though, since the screen is noticeably bigger than both the last Note and the Galaxy S10 Plus. It’s clear Samsung has been trying to play it safe ever since the Galaxy Note 7 incident.

Average battery life can be somewhat forgiven if the phone charges quickly, and Samsung included a 25W USB-PD charger in the box. This isn’t the fastest charger we’ve seen in a smartphone, but 25W is respectable. Real-world testing got the device from 0 to 100 percent in about 75 minutes, which can come in pretty handy when you need a quick jump.

Add to this the fact that this is a PD charger, which can intelligently step-up the voltage to more safely deliver power, as well as talk directly with a device to see how many volt and amps it can handle, and you’ve got a thumbs up from me. Most fast-chargers use proprietary standards, and I’m glad to see Samsung adopting something open. Samsung also sells a 45W charger, and I’m eager to try that out when I can get my hands on it.

The rear set of cameras on the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus is effectively unchanged from the Galaxy S10 Plus. You’ve still got the same wide, standard, and telephoto lens, which give you quite a bit of versatility when shooting photos. The placement of the camera array is also better in my opinion because you no longer get your index finger in wide shots.

The overall quality of the Note 10 Plus camera is very similar to the Galaxy S10 Plus, but I feel Samsung has improved its processing a bit. Color is very good and the HDR is far less dramatic. The Galaxy S10 Plus would raise the shadows and blacks of every shot extremely aggressively, and the Note 10 Plus does a better job of having more contrast in shots.

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus also comes with a “Depth Vision” camera. This is primarily used for making 3D models of objects. Samsung lets you manipulate these models in post, and even export them to software like Blender 3D. There is no Depth Vision camera on the smaller Galaxy Note 10.

Unfortunately, like other Samsung cameras, the Note 10 Plus struggles in low light. The Note 10 will leave the aperture open for a while to get enough light, which causes quite a bit of smearing if the subject is moving at all. The phone will also overdo contrast in low-light scenarios, blowing out highlights and crushing blacks and shadows.

The front-facing camera on the Note 10 is very good. Images are sharp and have good color. Dynamic range is good and I think it looks even better than the rear cameras. This is surprising because Samsung had to make the aperture smaller on the Note 10 selfie camera than it was on the Galaxy Note 9. Still, I’m quite happy with the results.

There are some new camera modes in the Galaxy Note 10 series, such as “big circle,” “glitch”, and “color point.” Big circle emulates a very high aperture on the background and completely blurs the background with some nice bokeh. You can change the amount of blur with the slider. This works well, and I think it looks very natural.

Speaking of video, the Galaxy Note 10 Plus has some of the best video stabilization of any phone I’ve used. It rivals the Huawei P30 Pro in video stabilization, which is to say, it’s very, very good. Unfortunately, video struggles in low-light just as much as photos do. Highlights are blown out and shadows are crushed.

Update: January, 2020: The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus has now been updated to Android 10 with One UI 2.0. When originally reviewing the Note 10 Plus, it was running Android 9 Pie. There are multiple changes present in Android 10 and One UI 2.0 that you’ll want to take advantage of. For the original review of the software, see below.

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus ships with One UI 1.5, which is based on Android 9 Pie. Like with the Galaxy S10 Plus, I’m a huge fan of this take on Android. Screen elements are large and easy to reach, and there are nice features like scrolling screenshots and a built-in screen recorder. If you’re a dark theme nerd, Samsung has included a dark theme in One UI as well.

The one worry I have with this software is consistent updates. My Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus just received the July security patch, which is nearly a month overdue. Samsung may improve its update timeline, but it has not been the best at this historically.

The biggest software updates coming to the Note 10 Plus are an enhanced Dex experience alongside a new partnership with Microsoft called Link to Windows.

Link to Widows is a toggle you can turn on and off in your notification shade. The feature allows you to receive texts, photos, and other notifications on your Windows PC. Samsung is hoping this will be a suitable alternative to Apple’s ecosystem, which seamlessly links things like text messages between your Mac and iPhone. Using it to share photos is the most useful for me personally since I use Android Messages for web to handle text messages. As for notifications, I don’t really want more notifications on my PC.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 series is getting a lot of flack for dumping the headphone jack. In my opinion, this flack is justified. Samsung has been one of the few premium phone makers holding onto the analog jack, and dumping it in the phone that is supposed to “do everything” seems pretty abusive to its loyal fan base.

I asked my Twitter followers what their take on the jack removal was and got a fairly diverse response. Out of 13,356 voters, 55 percent said they didn’t care, and 45 percent said they were annoyed. Multiple people messaged me saying they were somewhere in-between ⁠— that it annoyed them but that they were still buying one. While I recognize I’d probably need more non-Android fanatics to answer this question to get an accurate assessment, this lets me infer that people are caring less and less about the headphone jack. I will still defend the headphone jack until the day we have a true replacement, but it seems the market is signaling that people aren’t nearly as hell-bent over it as they once were.

With that said, the Note 10 Plus has stereo speakers with Dolby Audio and also supports Bluetooth 5. The speakers sound very good and tested very well in our dedicated speaker test. If you want a phone that sounds good without a Bluetooth speaker, the Note 10 Plus is a great pick.

You can’t review a Galaxy Note device without talking about the S Pen. This year, Samsung has added a few new features. None of them feel particularly revolutionary, but you can’t fault Samsung for at least trying to make it better.

The S Pen in the Galaxy Note 10 series has a gyroscope in it, which allows it to perform Air Actions. This means you can perform gestures like swiping up and down and left and right to switch camera modes or make a swirling motion to zoom in with the camera. This can be decently useful for things like remote selfies, but I didn’t find any of the new gestures change how I use the phone.

Digital text conversion was available in Note 9, but it’s been improved with AI-powered recognition for better accuracy, as well as direct export to Microsoft Word.

Value is always going to be a sticky spot for Samsung’s flagship devices. The Note 10 Plus’ $1,100 base price is one of the highest on any smartphone right now, but it’s clear Samsung is trying to keep its devices premium. The strangest thing about this pricing is this device comes a full six months after the S10 series, which have been significantly discounted since launch.

On Prime Day this year, Amazon was offering the Galaxy S10 Plus for $699. That’s $400 cheaper than the starting price for Note 10 Plus. The Note 10 Plus does have faster UFS 3.0 storage with a higher base capacity, a bigger, brighter display, the S Pen, and more RAM, but it’s missing the headphone jack the S10 Plus offers.

The top-end OnePlus 7 Pro can be had for $749 for nearly the same base specs as the Note 10 Plus, and the 7 Pro also comes with the smoother 90Hz display, though you’ll be missing on expandable storage.

This, then, leaves the S Pen and the design as the biggest differentiators between Note 10 Plus and other flagship devices. Personally, the stylus is not a vital asset for me. It can be useful for doodling on screenshots, but otherwise, I’m not convinced you need it. For digital artists, it’s a totally different story. I can absolutely see how the S Pen would be an invaluable asset for people who make art daily, but for me, it remains slotted in the phone 99% of the time.

If Samsung really wanted to separate the Galaxy S line and Galaxy Note line, using the newly released Snapdragon 855 Plus would have been a great move. The company has traditionally marketed the Note series as the power user device, and while more RAM and faster storage are undoubtedly perks, the 855 Plus would have been an easy way to market the device to gaming enthusiasts. For any company that releases two devices a year, selling the newest Qualcomm chipset at the beginning of the year and the Plus model in the second half of the year is a straightforward path to making the upgrade worth it. Take note, Samsung.

With that said, the Note 10 series wasn’t made for power enthusiasts this year. Like I said earlier, this series was made for people who want the best design and great specs, not the power users who want something that would blow other phones out of the water on paper. Samsung is looking to rope in a much wider demographic with this device, and whether or not you agree with that move, the Note 10 Plus is still a wonderful phone.

If you’re looking for a smaller phone at a smaller cost, the entire Galaxy S10 series are great alternatives. They all come with headphone jacks, too. It would be easy to find these devices at a reduced cost as well. Though the S10 Plus is still listed at $999 on Samsung.com, deals can be found pretty much anywhere you look.

If you can’t even come to close to the Note’s price, the Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T will satisfy pretty much any person looking for tons of power on a budget. They come with powerful specs, and at just $400, they’re hard to beat.

If you love the S Pen but want something cheaper, Samsung has recently released the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite. This device has the Exynos 9810 processor which won’t get quite as good battery life as the Snapdragon 855-powered Samsung Galaxy Note 10 or Note 10 Plus. That said, it’s still quite capable, with 6-8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage with microSD card expansion.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus is a wonderful phone, but its priorities have clearly changed. Samsung is no longer trying to attract the “do anything and everything” crowd, but rather the “do what do you well and make it look good in the process” crowd. Nearly every update on the Note 10 Plus was driven by the need to attract a broader audience, which meant reducing the power user association with the device. The standard Note 10 takes this concept even further with a smaller 1080p display, no microSD card expansion, and a fairly small 3,500mAh battery.

Again, this isn’t to say the Note 10 Plus is a bad device. Personally, it’s my favorite Note made so far. But priorities have clearly changed for the company, and if you’re the hardcore power user who wants all the best specs Android has to offer, you may want to take a look at options like the Asus ROG Phone 2.

If your screen is cracked or not functioning properly, there is a good chance you may need a replacement. There are many repair kit options available for the consumer, so once you have all the repair parts and tools in place, you can end up with a like-new screen.What will you need for a replacement?

That will all depend on the severity of the damage to your screen. If the Samsung Galaxy Note still responds to your touch, you will be able to just replace the LCD screen. But if you notice that the device is not functioning properly, you may need to replace the digitizer as well.What is a digitizer?

The digitizer plays an important function on the Samsung. In order for your touch to turn into a command, you need the digitizer. It functions by turning the pressure on the screen into a digital pulse. Without it, the device will lose most of its functionality. It is best to check if you need both an LCD screen and digitizer. They are usually sold together as a kit.Do you need to find a specific LCD Samsung screen?

Samsung products have various specifications for each phone. You need to check that the cell phone LCD screens for Samsung Galaxy Note phones will be compatible with your version of Samsung. A phone can even vary between different carriers. It is best to make sure you have a product that will work with your model to ensure it is fully functional. This is especially important for an LCD glass replacement. If the home button and camera are not aligned, your device will not respond to the pressure on the screen.How do you find the model number for a phone?

The simplest way would be to check the settings option on your phone. But if the display is not working, this will be almost impossible, so you can always check the sticker on the battery. This should provide you with enough information about the model number of the phone. You can now find replacement parts that will be compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Note.Do you need anything else besides the LCD?

You might want to check if you need additional tools to complete the replacement before beginning any repairs. These are items you may already have on hand. Some additional tools might include:The flat end of a spudger

If you don"t have them, you can always purchase them in a kit. They are usually available alongside the LCD replacement kits. Your particular kit may even have tools included with it.Content provided for informational purposes only. eBay is not affiliated with or endorsed by Samsung.

I"ve moved up 3 phone models since using this, an A21, A42, now a Samsung Z Fold 4. This app still works wonderfully! I don"t get noticeable lag, however after running this I notice a differece. I tap (or swipe) with one finger, but crazy fast with a light touch. I run this once a month or so, then it always feels better, smoother, and even quicker. I wouldn"t say this is a "last resort" app, but a great maintenance app. Kudos! Been using a while now, very happy! (only a 5 second ad at end too!)

A cracked Samsung phone screen can be devastating, especially if you rely on your phone for business, school and your social life. Screen replacement options include cell phone repair services, insurance claims and DIY repair. Here’s a breakdown of each plus associated costs to help you decide which option is best – plus whether it’s worth fixing your phone or if you’re better off selling it broken.

Option 1: Cell phone repair services – $199 to $329 Local repair shops can often replace your Samsung screen in under an hour, so you can get your phone fixed over your lunch break. Online mail-in repair services take longer, but they can be good options if you do not have a qualified local repair shop.

Expect to pay between $199 and $329 for Samsung screen replacement, depending on your model. Some repair shops offer warranties that offer free or discounted parts and labor if your screen fails within the warranty period.

If you have it, phone insurance might be your cheapest option. You can even get same-day screen replacement if an authorized or mobile repair center is nearby. Otherwise, you’ll need to mail your phone in for repair.

Some carrier plans allow you to request a replacement device instead of getting your phone repaired, but that option typically costs more. For example, Verizon insurance charges $29 for screen repairs but up to $249 for replacement.

Option 3: Do-it-yourself (DIY) cracked Samsung phone screen replacement – $92 to $240 You can purchase a replacement screen for your Samsung phone from several phone parts suppliers, including Repairs Universe, Injured Gadgets and FixEZ. Some stores sell screen replacement kits that come complete with tools; otherwise, you’ll need to buy tools separately. Toolkits start at $5.

Expect to pay between $92 and $240 for a replacement screen, depending on your Samsung model, whether your buy new or refurbished and whether you buy the screen with or without the frame (the frame adds around $20 and can make installation easier). Keep in mind that quality varies, and you’ll typically spend more for a high-quality screen. Pricing can also vary by color.

Note that some parts suppliers sell OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts while other sell aftermarket parts. Some offer both. Here are some example replacement Samsung screen prices (with the frame).Galaxy S20New: $240

How to replace your Samsung screen WARNING: Screen replacement can be a difficult repair, especially if you aren’t experienced. Before you attempt to replace your own Samsung screen, be aware that you risk causing additional damage and you could void any warranties and insurance policies.

You can find detailed step-by-step instructions on sites like iFixit and YouTube. Here are screen replacement videos for the Samsung Galaxy S20, S10 and S9.

Should you fix your Galaxy screen or sell it broken? You might want to base your decision on how much your phone is worth broken versus repaired, especially if you plan to upgrade soon.

For example, at the time of this writing, a Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $155 in good condition. Here’s a breakdown of its net value after different repair options.

Galaxy S10 Value – Cost of Repair = Net Value After RepairRepair MethodValue (good condition)– Repair/Deductible Cost= Net Value After Repair

Next, compare the net value after repair to what your Samsung phone is worth in broken condition. At the time of this writing, a broken Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $40.

As you can see, our example Galaxy phone will have the highest value if you file an insurance claim, though the SquareTrade deductible leaves a net value of just $6.

The Galaxy Note 10+ checks all the proverbial boxes for a Galaxy Note device. It has, among other things, the largest battery compared to its predecessors and comes with a whopping 12GB of RAM and 265GB of UFS 3.0 storage. Last year"s Galaxy Note 9 was, at best, an incremental upgrade over the Galaxy S9+ and the Note 10+ is much more than that. The only thing that would have made the Galaxy Note 10+ a perfect update would be a headphone jack, but such is life, I guess. I"ve had the device for about ten days and here are myinitial impressionsabout it.

No Galaxy Note device is complete without the S Pen, and the one that comes with the Note 10+ retains all the features that its predecessors had. It runs on Bluetooth LE and can be used to perform necessary actions in the Camera and YouTube app for now. I"ve done a deep dive into what the S Pen can do in its entirety. You can readmore about it here. Without further ado, let"s get right into Samsung"s $1,100 behemoth.

An integral part of any "premium" smartphone experience is how it feels in your hand. The Galaxy Note10+ offers nothing short of premium materials and impeccable build. The phone adopts Samsung"s tried and tested "glass and metal sandwich" approach and does so excellently. It is a huge phone, and one-handed operation is tricky, even for someone with large hands such as myself.

Furthermore, the edges and the sharp corners delve deep into your palm. The back is a giant fingerprint magnet and just an hour or so of continuous usage will render it smudgy. Thankfully, Samsung was kind enough to include a basic silicone case in the box. Unless you have the Aura Glow variant, I"d still recommend putting a sturdy case on the phone. To quote YouTuberJerryrigeverything,"Glass is glass and glass breaks."

The punch hole cutout at the front is hardly a hindrance and blends into the phone"s screen seamlessly. You can even spice things up using specific wallpapers that transform the front-facing camera into a lot of different things. There also appears to be a fine coating of some mystery material on the display that is super hard to peel (as a rule of thumb, if it is difficult to remove, leave it be).  Moving on, the bezels are virtually non-existent, and the phone is about as "all-screen" as it gets. Kudos to Samsung for fitting the earpiece, the usual proximity sensor, and the ambient sensor in such a tiny section at the top.

Now that we"re done singing praises of how great the Galaxy Note 10 looks and feels, here is some constructive criticism. On the one hand, I"m glad that Samsung god rid of the god-awful dedicated Bixby button, on the other, it was at the expense of the power button. "But Anil, relocating the power button to the left was a Galaxy Brain move as it lets you use the S Pen with your right hand and press the buttons using the left hand," said one person. "Stop whining and git good," said another.

I"d STILL prefer the power button on the right for two reasons. One, that"s how it has been for all Samsung devices until the Galaxy Note 10, and I don"t want to reprogram my muscle memory. Two, because it is an absolute nightmare to take a screenshot with one hand which wouldn"t be a problem if the buttons were on opposite sides. Oh and here"s the worst part, long-pressing the power button now invokes BIXBY by default. One has to press and hold the Power and Volume Down button to switch off a device. This isn"t making things easier Samsung, not by a long shot.

The Galaxy Note 10"s 6.8-inch AMOLED panel is one of the best on the market right now. Few companies can recreate the magic of Samsung"s AMOLED panels. The Galaxy Note 10"s screen checks all the boxes; vivid yet realistic colors, deep blacks, and high visibility in even the brightest of ambient light. The panel hit 686 nits of brightness, which beats the OnePlus 7 Pro (513 nits), iPhone XS Max (606 nits) and Galaxy S10 Plus (625 nits).Viewing angles are about as wide one can expect from a mobile screen. As mentioned earlier, the panel can get incredibly bright at peak brightness. This, coupled with its HDR10+ compliance, can result in eye-piercing results. Dark Mode is your friend, and I"d recommend that you switch it on the rightafter youset up your device.

I"m glad that Samsung went for the single front-facing camera approach. A second camera (like the one found on the Galaxy S10+) offered no real-world benefits and in turn, made the front look uglier. Contrary to what the marketing department tells you, a single, powerful camera can get more done than two half-assed cameras. I"m still not a fan of the motorized camera gimmick. Moving parts add another point of failure, and that"s the last thing I want in something that costs $1,100. Coming from a Galaxy S9+, the screen-mounted ultrasonic fingerprint scanner is nothing short of a godsend. I"ve lost count of the number of times that I accidentally smudged the camera lens while trying to unlock the phone. Yes, it is a bit tricky to use at first, but it took me all of three days to get acquainted with it. It isn"t as snappy as the optical fingerprint scanners out there but gets the job done.

The Galaxy Note 10+ has three rear cameras with the same specs as the triple cameras on the Galaxy S10 and S10+: a 12MP primary lens with Dual Aperture (F1.5/F2.4), a 16MP ultra-wide camera with F2.2 aperture, and a 12MP telephoto camera with F2.1 aperture. The telephoto camera now sports a wider aperture than previous Galaxy flagships, all of which had F2.4 aperture telephoto lenses. There’s also a time-of-flight sensor here (VGA f/1.4) – that’s not present on the standard Note 10 – which helps capture better depth for portrait mode photos and videos.

The cameras aren"t much of an upgrade over the Galaxy S10+, and the quality remains consistent across both devices. One of the many complains a lot of users had with older Galaxy S Series cameras is that they oversaturated images too much. The Galaxy Note 10 still does that but to a lesser degree. HDR is also marginally better, and images look a lot more natural.

One of the critical areas where Samsung is still behind the industry is in low-light photography. Despite its variable aperture lens and dedicated Night Mode, the Galaxy Note 10 still lags behind the likes of the Google Pixel 3 and the Huawei P30 Pro. Yes, the quality of images captured is arguably better than that on older devices, but that isn’t enough. It is a shame to see such a powerful camera go to waste due to bad software. I"d still prefer a Google Camera port with Night Sight.

At the front, you get a single 10MP camera with Dual Pixel autofocus and F2.2 aperture. The removal of the second camera leaves some wiggle room to make the front camera slightly larger on the Galaxy Note, 10 and  Galaxy Note 10+ as Samsung reduced the size of the punch hole, but that didn’t make any notable difference compared to selfies taken on a Galaxy S10. The front-facing camera has Night Mode as well, and it performs on par with its rear counterpart. Live Focus on the front camera works well enough for me to forget the second sensor on the Galaxy S10 Plus.

The Galaxy Note 10"s launch event spent a significant amount of time talking about its video features. It is the only smartphone on the market capable of applying a Bokeh effect on videos. The camera does have a difficult time focusing on rapidly moving objects at times, but I"m sure it"ll get better with time. The effect works on the front camera too. My only grouse with Live Focus Video is that the blur is nearly not enough, and there is no option to adjust the level of blur. The new video editor that comes with the camera app is nice too. It lets you perform basic activities such as cropping, splitting, and merging a video, among other things. It is a (mostly) functional editor and it eliminates the need to download a third-party alternative from the Play Store.

The Galaxy Note 10+, in particular, also comes with a rear-mounted ToF sensor that can be used for  3D scanning applications. The in-built 3D Scanner app, however, is a load of garbage and couldn"t even scan basic objects such as water bottles. I"m sure there are other apps out there that can better use the ToF sensor as the one Samsung released criminally underutilizes it.

The Galaxy Note 10 performs about as well as any flagship-tier device should. Navigating through the user interface is a breeze, and only noticeable hiccups appear when an app update is taking place in the background. It"s about as good as it gets and I"ve had no random restarts or freezes so far. We"ll know how the phone holds up a year or two after putting it through the motions, and I have a good feeling about this one. The icing on top of the cake is the faster UFS 3.0 storage inside. It may not matter much in day-to-day activities but makes file transfer over USB a whole lot faster. This is a boon for people who transfer large files to and from the phone often.

Starting with the Galaxy Note 9, Samsung began to advertising their Galaxy Note devices as gaming-ready. The Galaxy Note 10 Plus could smoothly run whatever I threw at it with relative ease. The games I tested were PUBG Mobile, EVE: Echoes and Asphalt 9 and all three ran at maximum settings without any troubles. The phone did heat up after several minutes of gameplay but was still warm enough to touch, and the temps stabilized at around 50 degrees for the processor. The Exynos 9825 is advertised by Samsung to be as powerful as the Snapdragon 855, but the results state otherwise. I wouldn’t worry about the minor bump in performance, though.

The Galaxy Note 10 series is the first that can take advantage of Samsung’s new DeX app on Windows and Mac. All you need is a compatible device and a USB cable, and you’re good to go. DeX mode lets you use all your phone applications in full-screen mode with a keyboard and mouse. Some games even have controls tailor-made for keyboard and mouse input. There is some measurable input lag while operating the app. The only benefit I can think of for using your phone like this is the added keyboard and mouse support and ease of multitasking. Or you can breathe a new lease of life into your five-year-old laptop by using it as a glorified host for the Galaxy Note 10. This feature should be coming toolder Galaxy devices via the Android 10 update, based on an earlier leak.

Moving on to the software, the Galaxy Note 9 Plus runs Android Pie-based OneUI. The user interface is on par with the ones found in earlier Galaxy devices with the addition of the S Pen functions and some Microsoft apps. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella surprised us all with his appearance at the Galaxy Note 10 launch event to announce a partnership between Microsoft and Samsung. If you don’t want to use DeX, there"s aLink to Windows app opens upMicrosoft’s ‘Your Phone’ appthat lets you check notifications, messages, and pictures from your phone on your PC."

OneUI may be one of the most heavily-skinned Android Fork out there, but it makes up for the bloatware (if you can even call it that) with features that are just making their way to Stock Android. (Night Mode, Scrolling Screenshot, etc.) If you"re new to the Samsung Experience, make sure to check out Samsung Pay. It is, with the notable exception of LG Pay, the only payment portal in the market that is capable of turning your phone into a virtual debit card thanks to MST (Magnetic Secure Transmissio.) It works on almost all traditional point-of-sale machines and can even double up as one, albeit in a limited capacity.

Galaxy Note devices and batteries haven"t been the best of buddies ever since the Galaxy Note 7 decided to LARP as an IED. The Galaxy Note 10+ has a 4,300 mAh battery, and it is the biggest yet on any Galaxy Note device. The large battery coupled with the power-efficient 7nm Exynos 9825 will get you through an entire day with relative ease. You can squeeze out some more battery life if you leave the screen resolution at FHD+. On average, one can easily get around ~5 hours screen-on-time out of a full charge. Throw in some battery-saving shenanigans, and you can easily eke out an hour more.

Making things better is the fact that the Galaxy Note 10 comes with a 25W charger out of the box. It is capable of charging the phone completely in 60-90 minutes and from zero to sixty percent in about 30 minutes. There"s a separately available 45W charger for the device as well, but I haven"t been able to test it out as it isn"t available in my region yet (thanks, Samsung)

You won"t need the latter as it isn"t considerably faster than the included charger. According to tests, 45W and 25W chargers take the Note 10+ from zero to 67% and 73% charge respectively in 30 minutes. 100 percent comes up in 65 minutes with the 25W charger and 57 minutes with the 45W charger. In an ideal world, Samsung would have bundled the 45W charger in the box, but the 25W fast charger is quite fast already and will get the job done for most users.

Lastly, the Galaxy Note 10+ also supports reverse wireless charging through the Wireless PowerShare feature. This is best used for charging wearable devices like your Galaxy smartwatch or Galaxy Buds. You can charge other smartphones too for the sole purpose of flexing on your friends.

I wouldn"t fault you if you skipped the wall of text above for this segment. This is, after all, what the review is about. All in all, I have minimal complaints about the Galaxy Note 10. Yes, I"d like the ability to charge my phone and listen to music on my headphones, but that seems like a distant dream. The Galaxy Note 10, undoubtedly, is one of the best phones I"ve laid my hands on and that"s a fact. If you have a spare $1,200 lying around and want to experience the best Android has to offer, go ahead and purchase the Galaxy Note 10+.

Personal opinion aside, as a Samsung enthusiast, I have mixed views about the Galaxy Note 10+. On the one hand, it provides the quintessential Galaxy Note experience complete with the S Pen and everything. On the other, it removes an essential component from the Galaxy S10 series (you all know what I"m talking about, at this point). The whole premise of a Galaxy Note phone was to pander to enthusiasts and power users, leaving the S series for normies. If you"re using a Galaxy S10 or S10+ and can"t be arsed about the S Pen, stick to it and wait for the Galaxy S11 to surface. I"m sure Samsung has more in store for us with that than they did with the Galaxy Note 10+.
