The Galaxy Note10 (6.8”) & Note 10+ (6.3”) will hit the shelves on 23 August with enhanced S Pen and “pro-grade” camera.

The Note10 & Note 10+ were unveiled this morning during Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2019 in New York on 7 August at 4pm EDT.
The Galaxy Note10 starts at US$950 while the Note10+ starts at US$1,100, slightly more expensive than the S10 smartphone which ranges between US$900 to US$1,000.
First looks and hands on the Samsung Galaxy Note10 (S$1,398) and Galaxy Note10+ (S$1,598/S$1,898 for 256GB/512GB respectively) which will be available in Singapore from 24 August, 2019.
The previous Note9 has a 6.4-inch display while the current S10 is around the same size as the 6.3” Note10 with slightly less screen size.
The new phablets charge via a USB-C port which doubles up as an audio port as the 3.5mm headphone jack is gone.
Samsung first introduced the Galaxy Note series 8 years ago in 2011 – its differentiators were its large size and the stylus pen.
The latest iteration is the ninth, because Samsung skipped Note 6 altogether to align its numbering with its other flagship line, the S series of smartphones.
Samsung typically launches the S series in February and the Note series in late summer.
The Note10 has four cameras (1 front and 3 rear) – the three rear cameras comprising a 16MP ultra wide (123°), a 12MP wide-angle (77°) and a 12MPtelephoto (45°).
The front camera has 10 megapixels at 80° field of view.
The Note10+ has one extra rear camera (1 front and 4 rear) – the DepthVision camera.
The other cameras are the same in both versions.
The key specs for the Note10 and Note10+ are summarised below.
