Who's getting it? And what are you coming from? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion

I'll start. I have a P30 Pro. Was thinking of going for this phone. Its very nice looking indeed. But as hard as it is I'll hold off.
I need a new chipset not just a current one overclocked.

Coming from Note 9 just needed an upgrade.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+]
Hi, coming from Samsung Galaxy Note 9, just pre-order the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+, 12gb, 512gb. Media Markt told me the phone would come on the 23 August. Portugal.
All the best to you.

I am going to stick with my One Plus 7 pro. 90hz display and 12gb of ram. Timely updates and super fast OS.

Have to agree. No point if you have this already.
Note 10 is a bigger s10 overclocked. With a pen and better camera I'm sure. Just not enough
But Jesus look how pretty is it!

Eventually i will get one, as soon as the prices drop a bit..... My Note8 just came from warranty and is new, although i bought it almost 2 years ago.
Coming from an almost complete "note" usage i am looking for a reason to buy this one...... Don't mind cameras i need it for work and seems that all is the same but the looks and processor speed......
Coming from PT where these "toys" are too expensive....

We seem to end up in the same forums. ?
I ordered the Note 10+ in Aurora Glow last night.

Same ordered aura white in the morning:laugh:

Got $600 for my Note9 plus another $200 store credit. Ordered a 512GB Note10+. I wonder why that size is only available in two colors (black and white). Could it be ceramic back like the S10+? That would be awesome if true.
I'm disappointed that the Samsung rugged case isn't going to ship until after Labor Day. Looks like I will have to pick up a cheap TPU in the meantime. Amazon has a bunch in stock now. Of course I'm not going to get the case that would be here tomorrow and have to wait two weeks to put a phone in it.

Curious about One Plus 7.. having stayed on Samsung scene for almost 8 years... I'm too used to rooting/tweaking/flashing etc.
How does the One Plus 7 stand regarding those? How is the dev. community for it? Do you know?

I was Note fan and never swayed until the note 7. I bought an axon 7 to replace the note 7. Went back to note with the note 8 cause of the great price they gave the note 7 owners. Sold note 8 a year later and got the OnePlus 6T. Sold the 6T and now have the 7 Pro. Let me tell you I have gotten around 6 firmware updates since the phone came out. Constantly improving the phone with the latest August security patch. The phone is just plain fast and beautiful. The dev community is very active and the phone is simple to root and flash roms. It has a 6.7 inch screen with quad hd.

Coming from a Nexus 6p that I ruined while changing my battery for the third time a few weeks ago (totally my fault). Using a Samsung SM-T825 and a novelty android small phone
(but with security updates) while waiting for my 10+. My last note was a Note 4 (bricked a few years ago, yeah I am kind of clumsy) . I did buy a Huawei mate 20 pro end of last year but got a refund due to the screen turning green.
I will be visiting often for accessories reviews and advices.

Giving up my AT&T note 9 for the note 10+ 512g aura black. Placed order through bestbuy this morning for a better deal. Sort of mad that at&t didn't include aura blue in the line up. Smh

trading in S10+, used to have a note and missed the pen. Ordered through Samsung as they are having a trade-in special & other free goodies.

Ordered the Note 10+, 256 GB, Aura Glow through Best Buy. Trading in my S10+.

I had a OnePlus 7 Pro, it was ok but nothing too exciting. Screen was nice but extreme curves killed it for me! Missed my S10+ and Pixel so I went back to those! Hope the Note 10 puts my S10 out of business!

The Aura Glow is different so I decided to give it a go, worst case scenario I'll dbrand skin it. Not to mention it'll be in a Pitaka case so there's that as well.
I completely agree with you about the OnePlus 7 Pro, ok but nothing to exciting. While I like the screen size of the 7 Pro the in hand feel of it killed it for me. It's a little to thick and heavy for my taste. The Note 10+ has a bigger screen, lighter and thinner than the 7 Pro.

Same here, just because for $540 (after tax) I've got the Note 10+ trading back the note 9, and extra (free) wireless charger and a battery pack.
The reason to spend the money - one stupid reason (on top of the fair price). I have the Samsung watch and I travel 10 days per month, and sometimes forget my watch charger.. What makes my watch a wearable brick.
I hope I won't get disappointed with reception. If it is par with the note 9, I will be a happy camper.

5T as upgrade from Note 4..what you guys think? Any feedback is welcome !

Hello!
So my wife has the Note 4 but it is pretty old by now and feels laggy. Unfortunately every new phone has this aspect ratio we both hate 18:9 aside from the Huawei Mate 10 and the the Note FE. Finding the FE seems hard with US warranty and the Mate 10 does not have an OLED screen which she loves. So...as she finds the Note 8 way too long with that hotdog shape...I started thinking the 5t even though is the same aspect ratio, being smaller might be a good alternative. The Mate 10 Pro is also on my short list.
Still, I am leaning towards the 5T the more I read about it. What you guys feel about it after using it for a while? How is Oreo doing on it? Please note that the phone will be completely stock as unlike me, my wife does not want ANY modifications to the stock roms lol
Is battery life really good? From the reviews I read I like that the UI seems very fast and smooth.
Anyways, anything you want to share (and if you came from a Note 4 even better). She does not really use the s-pen so she is fine losing that feature.
Thanks!
I came from Note 4 to OP5T and I love it.

I am guessing the camera is better too?
I am reading a lot of complaints of the 5T camera being worst than the 5 and from samples, it seems like that indeed. I even started considering the Mate 10 Pro now because of that and also the Pixel 2 XL (but with so many burn in issues probably not).
Thanks!
I had different phones, the Xiaomi redmi note 4 lg g6, oneplus 5, s8, and the s8 plus. But I am going to buy to the Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro excellent price performance. The Samsung s8 is also very good if u don't want to flash roms. Easy to setup and system wide ad blocker and almost every month security updates and a very nice screen.
I said go for the s8 the new Samsung experience is very good and many times better than the old touchwiz and a very good battery live and performance.

Worth upgrading to S9+ form S7 Edge?

Hi!
As you saw from my question I am wondering whether it's worth upgrading to S9+ from S7 edge or should I wait for the Note 9 or even S10? What do you think?
Also.. Will there be good development on this device? :fingers-crossed:

Well it was well worth going from my s7 edge to s8 plus so yes of course going to s9 plus is worth it.
sent from my Pixel 2 XL or Note FE
i'll be upgrading to the s9+ from the s7e, mostly because my plan runs out conveniently on the 15th.
i'm not as pumped by the actual phone yet, but the size, screen and 6gb RAM and battery bump in the s9+ looks good and it will be great... until March 15th in 2020 when i'll get the Note 12 / T2 / S11 Ultra, whatever that flagship is.
I had thought about the iPhone X/ Razer phone, and in an ideal world, i'd get either one instead, but the razer is not available locally and getting updates or repair/support for grey market phones is abominable in ... Australia.
(And, i'm not really invested in apple tech, despite having a now 5 year old ipad, and an iphone 4 that technically still works ... and basically everyone i know, has iPhone or Samsung)
s9 arrives later in the week, the s7 edge is still a perfectly great phone, until my daughter smashed it.
any excuse to get a new gadget.
Rom advice? I see Alexandr is makiung dev base, may stick with that stock feel, yet the freedom to use magisk modules. hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
S7 and S9 are great ,but i prefer the S9 .
It's all worth it .

What phone is everyone coming from?

I've been using a Pixel 2 XL since February 2018 but it's starting to show its age a bit performance wise. I've replaced the battery back in October as it was getting worn out. Here's to hoping that the S20 Ultra camera will be as great as the camera in my 2 XL.
I own the oneplus 7 pro... Ever since I saw the 90hz I never wanted to go back to anything lower. But I do miss all of the Samsung features. So I'm really waiting for my s20 ultra to come in the mail.

I have the Note 10+, and you get used to the hole punch quickly. With it centered there isn't a lot that normally displays there and even in full screen video it isn't large enough to obscure anything from what I've seen.
Galaxy s8 here that is really showing it's age.
Note 8 since launch day that has 2 cracks in the glass. Been off the charger for only 5hrs and was already down to 53%. So I have a 5000mah battery case just to barely make it through the day. I'm over the camera quality. I'm very excited to say the least. Wife and daughter have the s10+, so I've been itching bad for an upgrade.
Huawei mate 20x . So downgrading on size but excited for 120hz display
P30 Pro
S10+
Also on OnePlus 7 Pro. Hardware is nice and all but parts of software, like for basic stuff like calls and messaging, are simply stupid. Talking about software, OnePlus really can't come close to Samsung.
Note 10+
Xperia XZ2. Switching from sony for my primary device, for the first time ever.
Upgrading from a Note 8 that 2.5 years old. So definitely a huge upgrade for me. But not sure why some people are willing to lose so much money trading in a Note 10 or S10+ for an Ultra. Crazy unless you got money to burn and gotta have the best.

Better wait for the note 20... galaxy s20 is a error almost at the level of note 7. A false start for Samsung.
Anyway if you prefer s20 plus after seeing Note20, at that time it will cheaper like always happens.
Enviado do meu SM-G9650 através do Tapatalk
I know the Ultra S20 has some camera focus issues.
I have the S20 plus and it is a great phone. The Note line is always a feature or 2 richer than the S models. But if you're comparing getting the S20 plus or wait for regular Note 20, not the plus, then I say get the S20 plus.
Some people are big on brand new. I don't mind getting phone 2nd hand. I purchased my s20 plus for $700 + tax. And I kept my Pixel 3 instead of a trade in.
DON'T BUY EXYNOS S20 LINE MODELS! DON'T DO IT. YOU WILL REGRET IT. btw the offer you got isn't special or cheap.

That's not going away anytime soon! Unless you step things down a bit.
The Note 20, if it uses the same lens as the S20, will have the same focal uniformity issues up close simply due to the physics in way a lens works. Autofocus has been resolved to acceptable performance with the latest update IMHO.
Eventually, the multi lens fad will pass and they will focus (no pun intended!) on single sensor/lens performance. A 16MP sensor @ f1.2 would be great.

Well you guys were right About galaxy series I just used 20.min and go back to my pixel 3 xl again. Today I am sending back to Samsung.
According me :
Great screen
Fast smooth experience but
So many bulky apps working under ground
Samsung store it all about for kids
pixel phones pure Android experience
And there is no direct casting from your phone unless if u are usingnetflix, YouTube etc, maybe I could not find it
In addition I saw slightly green line on edges
It is still so good for many users after pure Android experience it is hard to go back multimedia phone for me
I will check note 20; iPhone 12 or pixel 5 in the future.
I always admired of Sony phone however there no iOS support.
In the past I used Huawei p20 pro, xz premium iPhone 7,8 blackberry ,Samsung s10,20plus note,9 , even Nokia's nexus
In my experience my long run phones either note series, Google phones or iPhone.
However thank all y'all spending time and helping me.

Why would you buy a device before you tried it out? You could have tested a demo before you spent all that money. Plus, you paid more than you should have, the S20 Plus 128Gb with Snapdragon SoC is available on eBay for $825.00 without all the Carrier Bloatware. Also, why do you think the Note Series will function better than the S20 Plus? They almost identical, same UI besides the S-Pen, Same SoC, a bigger battery and different camera won't overcome the issues you have with the S20 Plus.

Question Oneplus 9 pro worth it

Is the oneplus 9 pro any good as was going to buy one and they have told me to go buy a Samsung or pixel phone instead as they are cheap Chinese phones same as oppos so not sure if to buy or not any advice would be great please if to buy or not

One plus 9 pro worth buying ?
Looking at upgrading and was wondering if it's worth buying a oneplus 9 Pro what is battery life like how long it last
forum.xda-developers.com
Was looking at custom roms for oneplus 9 pro but it looks confusing wouldn't no where to start
The only flagship Samsung I would reccomend is the N10+ Snapdragon if you can live without a variable refresh rate display and 5G. These features have caused many problems since their implementation including outright hardware failures.
The OP phones are a viable alternative if you want a newer flagship. None of the new Samsung flagships have expandable storage and suffer from poor design balance. You may want to wait 6-8 months and see what comes next if you can. Waiting costs you nothing. It gives you more and better user input of existing models.

The 9 pro is a great phone. Lots of customization, the screen is really nice, and the camera is awesome too. IDK if you're into rooting and custom roms but there's a ton of options with that too (which you can't really get on Samsung phones.) To say that these are just cheap Chinese phones just isn't true.
Someone told me that the phone was constantly rebooting itself so that's why they told me not to go with it as they said software is not good I have a s10 lite at minute and need a new phone

It isn't a necessity to use custom roms, you can make similar modifications to the stock rom. If you read the instructions very carefully not much can go wrong, and if something does you're almost always able to recover it with msmtool

What do you want from a phone????? Features etc!!!
Just something for social media and general Internet
