    I have tried demanding games (PUBG Mobile and Shadowgun Legends) on it. SoC throttles too early and heats up. PUBG Mobile will struggle to run at constant 60fps at smooth graphics (extreme framerate). Meanwhile, Shadowgun Legends also hardly display 60fps at low graphics settings. Battery can heat up to 40 deg. Celcius if you force it to run at higher settings, which is no longer the safe limit of battery temperature (this can be checked with AnTuTu or CPU-Z).

    I cannot recommend the Note 10 Lite for games. You use it because of the S-Pen, because you draw or fiddle with the pen. If you need gaming, consider something else.

I don't see this phone interesting in such price, I think it should be worth around 499eur

A larger screen and a stylus on the other hand offer tangible benefits, not ones that require benchmarks to notice. Note 10 Lite is overall a much more attractive phone than any of the S10 variants.

                S10 lite is much better since it sports the SD 855+ while the Note 10 lite sports a 2 year old Exynos.

                    does it have fm radio

                      A few questions that I hope the review can answer:

                      1. Is the mono speaker that much worse (in terms of clarity and volume) compared to the stereo speakers of the higher models?
                      2. Is the performance of the fingerprint reader worse?
                      3. How durable is it in practice compared to the higher models, specifically when it comes to the plastic build quality and the lack of environmental seals?

                        Another big advantage over the Note 10 and Note 10+ is the flat screen. I have a Note 8 and I really hate the silly curved edges. It's great to see an option for a proper flat screen appear in the Note 10 Lite. Too bad though that aspect ratio is even worse, at 20:9. I miss the days where phones had 16:9 or even 16:10 ratio.

                          For the tired ones:"other, arguably less welcome change is the plastic construction."
