Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB Sim-Free Smartphone (International Model) (Prism White)

Product Information

Whilst Samsung technology is fantastic - the main downfall of enjoying it is the price - especially when there are so many constant new releases, and most of us don’t want to be paying high amounts every time we see technology that we want. If you decide on switching to samsung refurbished phones rather than brand new, you will see a massive price difference, as refurbished samsung phones are a lot more budget friendly. Since there are so many varying phone conditions for the same model, you can also filter the product you want based on price, and get the condition and price that works for you, which makes it a lot more flexible. The Galaxy S10 also does a better job at levelling out exposure, with the Huawei P30’s automatic shooting mode generally overexposing images a bit too much. The HDR mode also does a fantastic job of lifting up the shadows and softening brighter areas of the image.

The S10’s dimensions are 149.9 x 70.4 x 7.8mm (and it weighs 157g), so it’s only marginally taller and wider than the S9 with its 5.8-inch screen, and noticeably thinner and a bit lighter. As you might expect, gaming performance is equally impressive. In the duo of GFXBench tests at FHD+ resolution, the recorded frame rate is practically identical to that of its Huawei and Apple rivals. If you do decide to increase the screen resolution to the native QHD+, you will notice a drop, but nothing dramatic. The S10 is a great gaming phone.There's a hitch or two in Samsung's masterplan to get everyone to upgrade to this particular handset. The Samsung S10 launch price was expensive, more so than the Galaxy S9, although it's markedly better value than the iPhone XS, which was more expensive and has a smaller 5.8-inch screen. Dynamic AMOLED display with 16MP colours in a 6.1 inch size. This infinity display makes whatever you are viewing appear amazing, and gives off bright, clear and sharp colours. The QHD+ resolution also makes everything look detailed. The new Infinity-O display type is what stands out – for better or worse. Samsung has successfully avoided a notch cut-out at the top of its flagship phones, instead using a laser-cut hole in the top-right corner of the screen to embed the front-facing camera, as on the Honor View 20. The other key differences between the Samsung Galaxy S10 and the S10 Plus are the battery, which is smaller at 3,400mAh vs 4,100mAh, and the selfie camera which is a single unit to the S10 Plus’ dual front shooter. The S10 also isn’t available with 1TB of internal storage, but that’s a crazy expensive phone anyway. Possibly the best bit about the Samsung Galaxy S10 though is its size. As we've already mentioned, it measures 149.9 x 70.4 x 7.8mm, and considering the size of the screen is nestles surprisingly well in the palm.

Wireless power share enables the S10 to turn into a charger by simply being plugged in - so you can charge your wireless headphones and charge a friends phone at the same time as you charge your own. There’s little to dislike regarding the new display – if the Infinity-O doesn’t distract day-to-day, and as mentioned we’ll update this review when we have more hands-on time with the S10. Samsung Galaxy S10: design The S10 performs fast and efficiently with a Snapdragon 855 chipset and 8GB of RAM. This is great for intense use like gaming or working and streaming content. The Galaxy S10 has been one of Samsung's best selling models, and despite the fact that it has now been followed by the S20 and S10+, it is still a fantastic phone that is most well known for its stunning design, powerful performance and great camera.

In our video rundown battery test, the Galaxy S10 managed to last 17hrs 44mins before needing to recharge. Put that result side-by-side with its rivals and the Galaxy S10 manages to outdo the iPhone XR by over four hours, even if it can’t do any better than the Huawei P30 and Xiaomi Mi 9 for overall stamina.

The Samsung Galaxy S10 marks a decade of Galaxy S phones, and while there’s been little innovation in recent years from the most popular smartphone brands, including Samsung (Bixby and AR EMoji don’t cut it), the S10 has enough newness to tempt you to upgrade. You’re not going to be overly surprised by the rest of the Samsung Galaxy S10 design, though there are a few notable enhancements, two hidden surprises, and an old classic here.I also took the time to run some analysis of real-world gaming performance with PUBG Mobile and Shadowgun Legends using the Gamebench benchmarking tool. In both games, the S10 Plus performed well, even at full 3,040 x 1,440. With PUBG Mobile in Ultra mode (capped at 40fps in other words) and the highest quality settings available in native resolution, the Galaxy S10 Plus delivered a median frame rate of 38fps. Think of it like a car with different drive modes: you select Sport mode when you want a more lively, responsive drive; Economy mode when you want to save fuel; and the standard mode for everyday driving when you want a balance between the two. The difference here is that there’s no driver and the phone is automatically switching modes, depending on the task at hand. Bezel does outline the top and bottom of this display, even if we said it wasn’t big. Samsung’s top speaker still reigns, and there’s a thin but noticeable chin across the bottom; it’s less bezel rather than bezel-less. I can’t say how the smaller battery affects battery life exactly because I haven’t yet been given one to test, but with a screen that’s exactly the same resolution and only slightly smaller, the chances are that it’s not going to be quite as good as the S10 Plus. The Galaxy S10’s revamped design is perhaps its most noticeable change. You won’t struggle to tell this phone apart from its predecessor this time around: the Galaxy S10’s chassis is now surrounded by an iPhone Xs-like silver-tinted trim. It looks just as swish, in fact, and even the chin and forehead bezels have been completely removed.
