All the things you mentioned can be easily taken care by the Snapdragon 855 (The 855+ is for hardcore gamers) but nonetheless the S10 Lite can easily handle any game you throw at it. I bought the phone in February and I haven't noticed any heating or lag as yet. It delivers flagship like experience at a lesser price.
The things you'll miss out compared to the Oneplus 7T are:
- Glass back construction (Makes the phone fragile and since 7T does not have wireless
charging, I don't see the use.)
- The 90Hz refresh rate which drains battery quick considering 7T has a 3800 mAh battery.
- Stereo speakers
- Snapdragon 855+
- Telephoto lens
Now for the pros and cons.
Pros:
- Snapdragon 855 is quite snappy and makes the animation smooth.
- RAM management is excellent and 8GB RAM is more than enough for multitasking.
- A gorgeous AMOLED display panel and you get used to the puch-hole display.
- A good quality highly polished plastic back that mimics glass but is more durable.
- The in hand feel is premium because the phone has an Aluminium frame.
- The OneUI 2.0 on top of Android 10 is quite good in terms of sofware experience.
- The phone will be receiving monthly security updates just like Samsung flagships.
- In the storage benchmark tests the phone performs equal to UFS 3.0.
- The camera setup is very capable, both in terms of photo and video quality.
- A flat display means no accidental touches.
- Extremly thin bezels around the screen and HDR 10+ makes content watching a treat to
the eyes.
- An excellent battery backup, getting 1.5 days of usage on a single charge.
- The in-box 25W charger is fast enough to fill up the phone in 1hr and 10 mins.
Cons:
- No stereo speakers, which definitely better sounding than the mono speaker on board
this phone.
- No IP certification for water or dust resistance but there is a rubber ring around the SIM
tray and inside the speaker grill. (Saw the speaker grill rubber in a disassmebly video.)
- No headphone jack, but the in-box USB-C earphones are decent. (Not the AKG ones with
the S10 or Note 10 series.) Also, buying a set of wireless headphones a smarter choice.
- A telephoto lens would've made it more versatile but the 5MP macro camera is pretty
decent and pictures come out nice and detailed in good lighting conditions.
- No wireless charging but that's not a deal breaker because wireless charging is still a
fairly new concept to the general public.
- A polycarbonate back, which Samsung calls glastic (glass + palstic). It is more prone to
scratches compared to a glass back but in turn it is much more durable. Since, there is no
wireless charging, it won't make much of a difference.
All things considered the S10 Lite is fantastic piece of hardware loaded with most flagship specs and a very good UI at a fairly decent price.

(but they definetly stands for 4-4,5 years -battery not included they dies in 2 years-) So i am not sure about the androids can stand at least 3-4 years. But in my opinion you should pick Galaxy A71. Because you are not a hard user. You dont need any flagship phone. Go for high-end ones.

What I believe is when you buy 'branded' phone you also pay software. I own S10 lite and realme X2 pro so can tell you difference.

Using it 3 weeks, front and back very easy to scratch, screen has allready lot micro scratches . my old xiaomi 3years not used any sceen protection and looks almost perfect.
Fingerprint bad and slow. selfie unlock is oky. Snapdragon 855 and battery 4500 only reason to buy it. Price should be cheaper.

Hsb1, 17 Mar 2020It's made of plastic but look like glass.. It is not plastic..it is glastic ( a form of glass and plastic together ) which gives the shineness and slight protection of glass
It doesnt even feel like theres any plastic used
Premium look and feel
