Samsung Galaxy Note 10: the most complete smartphone right now

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 is yet another one of those devices that will make the Chinese competition roll up their sleeves, buy whole series of phones and disassemble them, and then very successfully copy the components - if they didn't get the said model in a different, less legal way. In the world of electronics, leaders can always be successfully copied, but what happens when those details that only the extremely educated can see are missing. That's why about the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 smartphone I am writing in such a way and with a slightly different tone because I support innovation and the one that still invests the most in the market and definitely leads in those things that are hidden from view. Among other things, security, although user tracking is often not the most important thing. But in the long run, everyone wants to have a little faster RAM, a little better camera, a more economical processor and the list goes on. Just as everyone wishes someone would not compromise, he does what he does best - no matter the cost, but with a view towards the most demanding users.

THIS TIME'S STAR OF THE NEW GALAXY COMES IN TWO FORMATS – NOTE 10 AND NOTE 10+

Samsung realizes that in class premium phones at a value of around one thousand euros, every detail counts and thus, with two dimensions, it adapts to the taste of those who like extremely large smartphones or large ones. It's great that Samsung sticks to the model nomenclature we already know from the S series, where the larger model only has a "+" sign. This brings a bit more goodies and at the same time a necessarily larger dimension. Smaller Samsung Galaxy Note 10 it measures 6.3 inches, while its bigger brother pushes that dimension to 6.8 inches. These dimensions are also conditioned by the always excellent smartphone screen, which this time works in technology Dynamic AMOLED and with its bigger brother it has a resolution of 1,440 x 3,040 pixels with an aspect ratio of 19:9. But let's go first to the most obvious... design features of the new smartphone Samsung Galaxy Note 10.

FORM – STILL UNFORCING INDEPENDENCE

The fact that phones are increasingly similar is not pleasing to all those for whom the shape of the phone is one of those features that we set slightly higher on the scale. A significant change is the different placement of the cameras on the back of the phone, which is no longer horizontal, but vertical. The latter is such due to technological limitations and the architecture of the interior, which, due to the increase in the number of sensors, is easily positioned as it is most optimal for the "innards". But that's not the only reason. The main reason is the angle at which a photo taken with different sensors or lenses is created. When shooting horizontally, the angle changes when switching between lenses. This is also why Samsung with the Note 10 series changes its classic camera setup, which was extremely liked by many, especially lovers of symmetry. They managed to capture the latter on the front of the smartphone Samsung Galaxy Note 10, where the camera on the screen is in the absolute center and not in the left or right corner, as is the case with most smartphones. From the design point of view, the fact that they managed to "trim the chin" of the smartphone is also extremely gratifying, which this time is really small and almost comparable to the iPhone, which is still the champion here. It's definitely the edges and the benefit of the front of the phone among the best.

UNCOMPROMISING CORE – SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 10

For a phone that's the best in its world and doesn't compromise, it's fitting that it's the interior according to the highest standards. New ones Samsung Galaxy Note 10 it drives the strongest and most current "heart" that will be in Europe Exynos 9825 with 7 nm technology, and in North America and China Qualcomm Snapdragon 855  (7nm). The working memory will be 8 GB, respectively 12 GB in connection with the internal memory of 256 and 500 GB, or up to 1 TB, and of course with the possibility of expansion with a memory card. The latter is extremely fast! This is also why we expect one of the best results from the phone according to the AnTuTu and GeekBench 4 tests. All the power is supported by a substantial battery (4,300 mAh), which is capable of fast charging with as much as 45 W or fast wireless charging with 20 W, which means extremely fast or fastest phone charging time. This is especially important for business users, where time is often equated with money. But since the phone is also a real small investment, I can happily say that it is waterproof according to the IP68 standard. So everything that befits the best smartphone.

Photo & video

Just like the Samsung Galaxy S10+ smartphone for photography and video Samsung Galaxy Note 10 does not make compromises. The S10+ model is considered to have the best camera system at the moment - the rear (109) and front (96) cameras in total achieve the highest total points according to the DxOMark standard - 205, while the overall photography champion Huawei P30 Pro only has 201. And with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10, the story is very similar. The system of three cameras, which are identical to the camera system of the S10+, this time a fourth camera joins, which takes care of depth 3D detection and bears the label TOF 3D. The main cameras are wide-angle (26 mm), ultra-wide (12 mm) and a photo lens with 52 mm and 2x optical zoom. Samsung did not go to war with pixels, because the latter means many times more disadvantages than benefits, which is why it remains at the standard between 12 and 16 MP for the lightest ultra-wide lens. But it should be emphasized that in addition to the photo with extremely natural and true tones without any particular distortion it also takes care of the best capture of videos that are above standard stabilized - of course also mechanically, not only "digitally", which is one of the major differences with direct competition. In the case of videos, the sound and its "production" are also important, which is proverbially exceptional for Samsung devices. So a phone that will appeal to video producers who expect the ultimate in video capture from their phone. All under the condition that the same camera system as in the S10+ will also behave in the same way in the body of the Note 10+ smartphone. From what we have seen, we can expect more. Let me point out an interesting fact so that it will be able to capture "slow motion video" at a resolution of 1,080p with as much as 240 frames per second. This data is already in the area of GoPro-type action cameras. Even with 4K resolution, the matter is no worse, as the video will burn into memory with a good 60 fps. Shooting in bokeh mode is interesting – yes, you heard that right. The world of photography is also moving into videography on the phone and a tool that you can easily use when creating content. But at Samsung, they didn't even forget about sound. A smartphone makes it possible audio zoom, the way in which you capture the sound of the object that is the focus of your attention.

It is truly the ultimate in the little things.

Note is a phone for those who absolutely know what they want and the latter represents to them a workstation, a replacement for a laptop and many other things. It sets it apart from average phones With foam – a digital pen, the use of which quickly becomes addictive and which you really miss when switching to a regular phone. They upgraded S pen and made its use even more intuitive. The pen recognizes your handwriting and you can wave it in the air like a magic wand (Air actions), but if you're artistically gifted, you can use it to sketch ideas without any problems... Users can use Samsung Notes to convert your handwriting into digital text, adjust the size of your text or export it to a wide variety of formats for programs such as Microsoft Word. This very pen, in addition to the mode options DEX, which instantly turns your phone into a real chrome laptop, is what makes the Note 10+ exceptional and at the same time one of the few business partners you can always rely on 100%. A lot of little things that are hidden from the eyes - e.g. exceptional connectivity, the fastest WiFi, the ultimate Bluetooth with 5.0 technology, a display that proverbially raises the standard of the industry ... -, is trivial for the average user, but indispensable for those who know and know how. Samsung also has one of the most interesting device ecosystems compared to other manufacturers. Thus, their smart watches are always the best rated, the same applies to sound transmitters, for example Samsung Buds, which, in my humble opinion, is one of the most complex and technologically advanced devices of this kind

Perfection

Smartphones these days are remarkably similar to each other. Both in appearance and in numbers on paper. To the average customer, manufacturers often sell stories about how they are the best here or there. But I can safely say that there is no such thing as a perfect phone, although every now and then one comes very close to that status. Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and 10+ they have all the assets to find themselves in the pockets of "connoisseurs" and those who appreciate something more. This is also why users who appreciate small things hidden from the eyes often choose the Note brand and in this way express that they know what they want. The Note 10+ is, at least on paper, right now the most perfect smartphone. Also because it remains within normal price limits and does not deviate too much from the S series.

The Galaxy Note 10 series will be available from August 23, 2019, namely in unique color shades. The Galaxy Note10+ will be available in Aura Gloss, Aura White and Aura Black, while the Galaxy Note 10 will be available in Aura Gloss, Aura Pink and Aura Black. Prices for the smaller Note 10 model start below 1,000 euros.

The galaxy got new stars and promises

In addition to the flag bearer in two formats, the company presented an improved watch Samsung Watch Active 2 and a laptop Samsung Book. In the latter, the Snapdragon processor is ticking, but it is nevertheless powered by Windows 10, which allows the battery to last for more than 20 hours. But about that in a special post.
