In this listicle, we break down the reasons why the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is the handset you need to own and own it now.
S Pen: Last year, Samsung introduced the S Pen with some great features and it did manage to convert a lot of consumers as the Note 9 was easily one of the best smartphones of the year. This time around, Samsung has doubled-down on the technology with its S Pen and have thrown in features such as Handwriting to Text, AR Doodle and more. With the Uni-body S Pen, users can jot down notes, instantly convert their handwriting to digital text in Samsung Notes, and export it to a variety of different formats, including Microsoft Word. With AR Doodle, use the S Pen to personalize photos with dynamic drawings, effects, and animations that track to the image.
Interestingly, this is just the tip of the iceberg as the S Pen has now been evolved as it features Air Actions that allow you to control certain aspects of the device using gestures with the S Pen. Also, with the S Pen and the Video Editor app, stead of having to tap to select or edit a clip, users can choose the precise moment they want to trim. Samsung’s S Pen bragging rights don’t end there, it also has an incredibly long battery life and by replacing it in the cradle, the S Pen’s battery gets topped up again.
AR Doodle and 3D Scanner: While speaking about the S Pen, we did mention AR Doodle, this feature requires an entire section on its own as it is a power-packed feature that paves the way for how we can seamlessly use augmented reality in our day-to-day lives. The Samsung flagship utilizes bleeding-edge AR and 3D capabilities into the camera. Along with an Ultra-Wide camera, it opens up an entirely new medium for creators. AR Doodle and 3D Scanner, which is another great feature go hand-in-hand. The Galaxy Note10+’s DepthVision camera can take a scan of an object, and instantly turn it into a movable 3D rendering. And as mentioned earlier, by using the S Pen, you can personalise photos with dynamic drawings, annotations, effects and more.
Display: The Galaxy Note 10+ comes with a jaw-dropping display and has to be experienced to be believed. It boasts an HDR10+ certification and Dynamic Tone Mapping, photos and videos are brighter than previous Note devices and feature a stunning, wide colour range. With all this in tow, it is no surprise that the handset has received the coveted A+ grade from DisplayMate. Both the 6.3-inch, Full HD+ (2280×1080) Galaxy Note10 and the 6.8-inch, Quad HD+ (3040×1440) Galaxy Note10+ boast Samsung’s all-new Dynamic AMOLED Infinity-O Display. The smartphones’ immersive screens include a single small, centred camera cut-out at the top that allows them to offer users an exceptionally high screen-to-window ratio.
Cameras: The cameras used on the Galaxy Note 10 lineup are arguably the best in the industry. The 5G variant of the Galaxy Note 10+ has received the number one ranking on the DxOMark both front-facing and rear-facing cameras, as well as the top score for the video. Samsung has packed the handsets with state-of-the-art tools to capture stunning video and photos at users’ fingertips and have been built with content creators and everyday users in mind.

New Super steady stabilizes the footages – even during Hyperlapse mode.
Design: With every Galaxy smartphone, Samsung ensures it is finished with premium materials. However, with the Note 10, Samsung has pushed the boundaries of what a smartphone design can be. While the handset comes in a range of colours, the newly launched Aura Glow has caught our attention as it is unlike anything the world has ever seen before. This rainbow-like colourway is available on both the Note 10 and Note 10+ and it really does catch the eye especially in comparison with the other colours that most other handsets come with.
Lastly, as a bonus, we have to include battery life here. The Note 10+ comes with a massive 4300mAH battery and those who purchase it can take advantage of super-fast 45W fast charging that can go from 0 to 100% in just an hour. This is pretty impressive and once again Samsung is showing that they don’t need to compromise on a single feature when it comes to its flagships; all while pricing it just about right.
