CREDO Tip: Samsung S10 review: Specs, differences and features

Each year, Samsung treats us to a new version of its flagship phone — the Galaxy S series — and last year was no different, releasing three versions of its high-end S10 mobile phones: the larger Galaxy S10+, the mid-size S10, and the more compact S10e.

Here at CREDO, many of our members want to know which of these Galaxy S10 phones is best for their needs because, on the surface, it may be hard to tell. Each model contains the same snappy Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor, same Android operating system, edge-to-edge glass screen and 4g LTE capability — but there are some distinct differences. So here’s a quick review of the each phone, their specifications, features and differences.

 

Samsung Galaxy S10+

If you want the latest and greatest Samsung phone featuring a great display, the S10+ is the right choice for you.

Samsung Galaxy S10

The Galaxy S10 isn’t too big or too small and offers most of the same features as its bigger sibling. The S10 offers a 6.1 inch display, great RAM and storage options and four camera lenses, two on the front and two on the back. If you’re having a hard time deciding which Galaxy model to choose, we think this one is just right for most people.

Samsung Galaxy S10e

The Galaxy S10e may be Samsung’s “budget” phone, but it still packs quite a punch. You still get the same speedy processor and Android OS, but it costs less and comes in a smaller, pocket-sized package. Unlike the previous two phones, you do get a smaller, 5.8 inch flat display and you lose one lens on the rear camera. This is a great option for those looking for a wallet-friendly phone.

Specs:

Screen size: 5.8in Infinity Display

Display Type: Edge-to-Edge

Resolution: 1080 x 2280 pixels

Biometrics: Fingerprint, Facial Recognition

RAM options: 6GB or 8GB

Storage options: 128GB, 512GB or 1TB
