Galaxy Note 10 Plus review: the luxury phone

Samsung Note 10 Plus - here's our review for the king of Android phones. Can it keep the crown, or have all the other, less expensive contenders made it just another phone? The answer to that question, Dieter Bohn says, is simply this: how much would you pay to have a stylus in your phone?

vaibhav it can’t cuz the tech is so expensive

[@raymondjin6812]

I agree, sorta. It’s like Samsung decided to make the smaller version a “e” version but also didn’t commit all the way. The fact that s10e has a microsd slot and the note 10 doesn’t is just a blatant money grab.

[@pharaohosam]

Just so you can afford it? In that case everyone should make their phones cheaper. The naming convention makes all the sense in the world, especially if they'll be making two sizes going forward.

[@RahulSaini]

did you just said slightly faster charging? 15 w on s10+ vs 45w(possibly) or 25w out of the box for note10+ is not at all slightly.

[@Raja995mh33]

The S10+ features 18W and the Note10+ comes with a 25W charger so its a 7W increase. That's not that big. The 45W is not that big of an argument because you have to buy it. People also never mentioned that the iPhones have up to 29W fast charge - because you have to buy it separatly

[@Yddp3307]

@@Raja995mh33 but the charging times are different and the power delivery is now usb power delivery, so the charging times arw actually significantly better than the s10+ and surprisingly better than oneplus even with only 25w charger (1hr5mins based on the other video)

Excellent production. But your review is "good" but you always end up your reviews with a: "this ain't it Chief" unless it's an Apple product. You end the "review" on a note that will affect the decision of the buyer, let the buyer decide. I hate that you never want to compromise and use ambiguous wording, how come it's never "it"? You're good but not great.

I bought the Note 10 plus .... And no it wasn't because of the S Pen. It's nice and ( after 2 days using ) sometimes practically but the main reason was because of the big, boxy display. I'm sick of those largely rounded corners and to narrow displays. Last year I bought the Mate 20 pro ... a damn beast but the display just wasn't wide enough 😕. Years ago I swore to myself to never buy a Samsung phone again but damn .... Samsung got better 💪🏼

It's incredible how with every Android phone review from The Verge the text is always the same: "Yeah... That's nice, but actually, it's not that great". And that's with literally everything.

Best use case I've found for Dex so far is the grade school student with a phone. They use Chromebooks at school and can then come home and use Dex for schoolwork. As a parent, it's great so you have to buy/manage one device for your child. Then setup a monitor, keyboard and mouse in a common area of the home so anyone can use Dex when needed. Curious if this can be incorporated into the review.

Question about Dex: after using it in my NOte 9, it's significantly useful with a laptop-like companion, simliar to the SuperBook, MiraBook, NexBook. Yet Samsung has yet to release these kind of accessory, even if it's a portable screen with bluetooth keyboard folio. yet, they release support for windows and mac, which is basically letting you run a mobile OS with Desktop UI, running on another OS. Why are these devices so hard to do (Superbook is closing down, the rest is not so hot either) and why hasn't Samsung push this along with Dex?

[@houzeroze]

[@andyH_England]

harold abear Depends, if you want portability, that is work anywhere not just where your monitor then the DeX is restrictive. With a laptop you can work on the go, in the cafe, at lectures, on the bed, on the sofa, in the kitchen, etc. With DeX you are stuck at the desktop. If you are happy having no portability then the DeX will do okay though by the time you have bought the monitor, keyboard, mouse and DeX port (important for the fan to keep the phone cool) you could have bought a good laptop or Chromebook. The new Windows feature looks slow and if you have a Windows laptop why would you want to do Word on your phone? DeX is a gimmick, it can do what it says, but nearly every other option does it better, so why do it just because you can unless it makes it better, and DeX is no way near that ATM, maybe in 10 years, but not now.

[@phillipmarnik]

Most people already have a monitor but if they don't good cheap ones are very easy to find. Only DEX users can tell you how useful it is. As one it is very useful and usable. BTW, Bixby is much better than most think too.

Dex - I've used Dex for a couple years now and I do really like it. I originally tried to use to use it for productivity, email, photo editing... but it was clunky. You never knew how different apps would work. Would it act like a windowed phone app, would it work like a scaled down windows app??? Who knew. What it did work really well as was a media device. It was a handy way to plug your phone into your TV with a keyboard and mouse and stream Netflix, Amazon (through phone mirroring), KZbin... and you could watch apps in a window and text and browse the internet if need be. It was handy to work on simple spreadsheets and word docs... but the apps were simplified and I'd always go back to my laptop. So, at the end of the day - I'd watch Netflix on the phone - and occasionally text, and work on the laptop.

Can buy a 45 Watt charger and double the fastest charging phone speeds. 3.) Reverse wireless charging is more than the wire charger that comes with the iphone, the reverse wireless charge means I can sit the iPhone XS Max on the back of my Note 10+ & charge it faster than someone plugging in a iPhone XS Max. 4.) The Screen is Larger. 5.) 1300 Nits makes it the brightest or a top screen brightness phone on the market. & 6.) The best Screen on the Market

@@mohdfaiz88 If you look at teardowns, it mostly doesn't add up. There is a large gap of empty space. Also for those few more mAh extra battery, you could make the phone thicker and keep the camera module flush with the case. :)

Honestly headphone jack is overrated... I use to use wired headphones and I would hate it.. So restricted.. Then I bought myself jaybirdx2 and I've never went back to wired... They are old headphones but dam they work amazing still!!

[@andi]

j suarez for me it would be the same but you just have the convenience of never having to think of charging the wireless headphones, making sure they are connected and also when travelling in planes here in Europe you can’t use Bluetooth

I think the new way to use DeX as a side application is incredible. One of my favorite things about my iphone is having the continuity of communicating from my phone through my computer via imessage or picking up calls. Samsung's approach is developing its ecosystem without necessarily abandoning one your own.

Hello my friend. I watched your review videos. I only have a question like this, is it normal for the speaker to vibrate behind the phone in note 10 plus model?

[@CEKROM]

8:46 Nova launcher is great =D

[@attyjosh]

I heard Samsung is giving every student in Hogwarts a Note 10+. 🤣

Ok so i started watching this video on my 13" MacBook but after the very first shot of the video i immediately switched to my TV. Amazing production quality!!!

[@derricksumerel962]

[@AJ_Stark007]

[@nazmulhuda3262.]

Can't deny how stunning that intro was. Just back remembering the intro!

[@memereview5836]

i hate to admit it but its time we leave the headphone Jack 😑

[@Jaxv3r]

Just buy pocophone f1 or redmi K20 pro, cheap phones are getting better.

Keimarr Jixbii 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jackyyo1998]

@@Jaxv3r no where near good enough

[@brunokitano3506]

On flagships maybe, but not on budget phones. It's always nice to have, but richer people can afford for good wireless headphones

[@Enzo575]

Shoulda waited until next year to drop the headphone jack 💨

[@andresmediaamigo]

Eventually it was going to happen.
