I believe the S10+ has slightly better processing but the difference in CPU isn't anything to ride home about. But the S10+ clearly has more RAM so for multiple apps and productivity I'd say go with Samsung Galaxy S10+ and Samsung pledges to support it an additional 3-4 years from release date.

which phone has a better and more stable signal between the 2 phones?
which display shows the video content more clearly?
as performance in applications are there large processing differences between the 2 phones?
I'm not interested in the cameras of the 2 phones (if I want a photo I buy something dedicated to it: d, I'm not passionate about selfies and photos I don't abuse such content). Sorry for my english! Thanks!

Nick Tagataka, 18 Jun 2019That's false, S10 can also record video in Samsung's own HD... moreJust about every TV with HDR10 supports HLG even my cheapest Phillips crap. Do not assume things just because you do not know what it is. =)

I can see many people bring the notch eyedrop waterdrop punch hole phone watching youtube video drama movie, they hide the "view blocker" as a bezel to reduce some display ratio. I also see many people use split screen (multiple windows) on PC, on phone are very seldom because they not enough space for display two app when less display area, that's why 21:9 display ratio has it merit on show more contains especially when watching youtube and scroll down the comment same time. Word editing on a smartphone (all brand) has very limited area so the taller display can have more paragraph and content.
Xperia 1 has 21:9 display ratio it is the standard and perfect ratio for movie immerse without harassing notch or hole, split screen run 2 apps more efficency, extra paragraph for word editing and reading, wider view field for gaming, display more content in one page to reduce swipe and scrolling, cinematic photography and videography, more view field on both window viewer when video chatting especially in landscape posture the phone.

everett2000, 20 Jun 2019Absolutely not from emotion, bar my personal indignation th... more"I know what it looks like when it doesn't. It didn't"
Or, S10's HDR was strong that it recovered almost all highlights which would've been otherwise blown out on other phones? It is also known that past Sony phones straight up fail to recognise the backlight scenes in some situations and leave highlights completely overexposed. I've seen a few cases on Xperia XZ, XZ2 Premium etc, but I'm quite sure Xperia 1 deals with scenes with dynamic lightings better than those. With that said, I still don't understand why Sony is even keeping HDR as one of its scene recognition options instead of a separate mode that works alongside the scene recognition feature. My P30, for instance, instantly recognises a scene that needs HDR as I fire up the camera app.
As for your photos, I would loved them if I didn't have a laptop and only used phones to examine those photos, and they indeed look excellent for SNS sharing. First of all I like the composition of your photos. Colors look natural which I think is definitely the strongest point of all Sony's phone cameras, and I would say the exposure is very even under good lighting conditions. However, sorry if I sound a bit rude, I honestly hate how literally everything is oversharpened from flower macro to landscape shots. In the cat photo, for example, I can't recognise any detail on the cat's fur.. I'm not even sure if the camera managed to get the focus or not because edge enhancement is way too strong. Low light shots are great but could be better in terms of highlight retention and lens flare.
Now, probably I need to show you the real life case of how oversharpening really affects fine details. I found those photos on the internet(so I don't own them) and they all should have exif inside the file, so go take a look at them yourself.

Both Sony and Samsung are applying disgusting amount of sharpening which eliminates all the fine textures captured by both Pixel 3 and P30 Pro, though S10+ does considerably better job at resolving buildings in the distance.

Early firmware P20 Pro actually sharpens up things LESS than Xperia 1, though. The latter obviously has more sharpening halo around "+"s and in the low light studio scene shows more sharpening noise around subjects especially towards corners.
"clean and plastic vs. rough and textured"
My point is you don't have to amp up sharpening slider to the max in order to get "textured image". Too much sharpening destroys fine textures and emphasises luminance noise, so it's not desired if you're looking for natural detail rendition.
Finally, even if those scenes were chosen deliberately in order to give a bad impression to Xperia, it wouldn't affect the fact that S10 managed to a lot better in scenes with extremely complex scenario. Don't forget the cake shot where Xperia 1 crushed the deepest of the shadows in the cake and turned it into pure black.. and as you probably know already our eyes don't capture pure black in such lighting condition.

Its not 100% sure yet. Any info would be appreciated.

When that's not possible, I prefer to watch on a smartphone without a screen scarred by some notch or hole.
Did you see I can also beat around the bush like you, but in the end I don't try to create a diversion to the fact that a smartphone cinematic experience is better on a whole screen rather than on a screen missing some part.

[deleted post]Your arguments are totally Invalid and Wrong. "Livid" has never said everybody is wrong, and has never given his personal opinion. He has only referred to gsmarena results here in this comparasion forum. His evidence is here, the gsmarena content and results.
You however, are just arguing because you personally don't like the results. Gsmarena is the Worlds most respected phone site. Your links are unrespected and unproven.
Gsmarena has clearly said...Video Winner: Galaxy S10+ for most everything, Xperia 1 for low light. Gsmarena has clearly said... Portraits, Selfies winner: Winner: Galaxy S10+. Gsmarena has clearly said... Camera Quality, stills, daylight, low light Winner: Tie.
