This is the phone which will end note series...
Curved edge screen,
Low battery
No expandable memory
No 3.5mm jack
No improvement in camera
Big hole in middle of the screen
Insane pricing for no improvement in mobile other than chipset...
I am sad the mobile industry is growing in reverse direction to transform multimedia rich device to just a phone with internet...

everybody are talking about 3.5mm jack. for me its not big problem coz u can buy adapter. and sure thing its a trend now removed the headjack. really like the design but really dont like the aura glow. s-pen is more usefull now compare to mine,note5. and i try my brother's note9 s pen and its very attracted. for me samsung done good job. critism is normal when smartfone company launched their new model.

Note 10.... it feels like a note 5 (no micro sd slot, squareish design, little battery, etc) samsung could make it better... such a disappointment TT-TT

Nice looking Phone BUT.... It is no longer the KITCHEN SINK that it used to be. Especially the Regular Note 10 (Not even the +).
I mean Look at Note 9, Triple Cameras, Iris Scanner, Heart Rate & SPO2 Sensors, 3.5 mm Jack and even had Bezels.
Note 10.. No Headphone Jack, I mean, Are you kidding me, you can't fit a headphone jack in a NOTE, look at the freaking size of that thing.

You know, I kept using my old S8 in a focus to buy Note 10. My primary target was due to S pen, that's available but biggest disappointment is not having (1) 3.5mm port (2) HR monitor and/or SpO2 monitor AND (3) Iris scanner. I would rather go for Note9.
Sam disappointed lot of fans.
Having the best display doesn't set u up for buying this.

Plus version is too big for me, and on normal battery size don't sound promising (600mAh less than the S10+, which has same HW, but only 0,1' bigger screen).
So,I will wait for reviews and new Mate to come out for comparison , because I am not ready to spent 1000€ just because something looks nice, for that money it needs to deliver on all fields an battery life is one of most important to me.

What's with the power button on the wrong side and linked to Bixby?
I use the power button to restart the phone and will never use Bixby.

Samsung did the worst design on Note 10 although the S10 looks incredible. Using the A-series design language, which copying iPhone X design, for low-mid end user and what the bloody hell that color, looks so cheap, is so disappointing. This look like test device and look garbage imo, same as all Chinese designed phone.

necru, 08 Aug 2019Oh come on, give me a break... Both phones are manufactured... moreSince Note 5 the gap between S and Note has faded away.
Note has become a S with Pen.
Note should every year have better cpu than S.
Exclusive cameras, at least the main camera.
Dual selfie (for example 23 mm and 19mm)

Anonymous, 07 Aug 2019Losing the heart rate monitor and SpO2 alongside the retina... moreI know the removal of 3.5mm jack is already a deal breaker for me, but furthermore of that is just plain dumb in the name of advancement, sure, not everyone use their SpO2, heartrate monitor, or the iris scanner, but if they slash that feature, at least i can expect a cheaper price than note 9 launch price, but no, 100$ more is laughable.

I am now wondering if this is really an upgrade over last year's Note 9. There are improvements like larger memory, increased screen size, slightly larger battery, smaller bezels, slightly better display and a Tof camera.
But then it loses quite a lot too. 3.5mm jack is a chief one. No more heart rate sensor, SpO2 sensor and iris scanner.
Also have been long dead is the omission IR blaster and separate micro SD and dual SIM slot.
It used to be that when I buy the latest Note, it is guaranteed that I will have the best phone in the Android world, with ALL features available and I don't have to choose what features to sacrifice. It was a phone of NO compromises. Today, it is just like any other flagship phone. If I want features like 3.5mm headphone jack, I will need to pay less to get it. IR blaster? Find another phone. No more 1 stop center.

Carter, 07 Aug 2019Exactly, just get a OnePlus 7 pronah, oneplus 7 pro doesn't have S-pen, it's not even worthy as note competitor.

They should leave only Note 10 Pro variant. The normal version not justify for its price, heck even S10+ and Note 9 are mostly better, so whats the point of it?
Anyway both Note its just an incremental upgrades over its predecessor, nothing new. Wait for Mate 30 series, pretty sure it'll have vastly upgrades and a lot of new things going on over this.

It's just stupidly funny how people compare this to op7 pro. You're forgetting the existence of spen..the main feature of note series from note 1.
Can you draw and sketch with op7? No.
Can you write on op7? No.
Does it have spen? No.
90hz screen is impressive indeed, but it doesn't help you with productivity. i'll take 60hz and spen over 90hz screen..
