Okay, so despite my grumbles in the S9+ thread, re the drawbacks of the S10 series, I went and traded-in/up for the S10 Plus (trade-in offer too good, additional 10% off and lots of birthday money. New toys and all that... :-)).
As many others have echoed, it's a tad faster, the camera is largely the same except for the new ultrawide angle, it's lighter than the S9+ and the new trim (I bought the Prism Blue) makes it stand out. The pill hole isn't an issue in day-to-day use.
However, the biggest issue like others is over the ultra-sonic FP reader. It was an absolutely nightmare to even set-up; it kept saying to press harder. It felt like I was going to break the screen at one point. It simply wasn't registering my (right) thumb and my index finger only worked with again, excessive pressure.
I then got my girlfriend to attempt it. Lo and behold, it accepted her pinkies / thumb without any real strain. Eh? So, tried again. I eventually managed to get a thumb done. NB: I have NOT removed the factory installed protector. Then, trying to unlock in normal use, it barely works. "Press a little harder" or "cover the entire sensor" being the 2 responses. Not a great start and seriously, considered sending it back. But oddly though, once in the device itself, Samsung Pay, Pass, my HSBC banking app all accept my fingerprint w/o problems.
I am ultimately only managing to unlock (when wanting to use the FP reader), ONLY if I've applied hand-cream to my thumb in particular. Then, it works fine. So, unless you have baby soft skin all round, you may well struggle with this and then decide to use the (very fast) Facial Recognition option instead. Go figure.... Any (finger) tips welcomed!

Samsung should sell external lenses kit separately which fits perfectly and boost camera performance.

Wasii, 25 Apr 2019S10plus is Samsung S series 10th anniversary phone.. nd it ... moreTotally agree if the camera end was more improved then Samsung all the way. But I've always found that it is oversaturated and not natural colours. Not to mention live focus is off accuracy too. There are areas of an outline blurry which doesn't naturally blur the background. Where as iPhone XS MAX is 100% top marks in the portrait area and camera itself
