Yeah, I really don’t put much stock on Dxomark. They tend to overemphasize quantity of features and functionality in their scoring—ie. multiple lenses. Lots of cameras score higher on DXO vs. the Pixel 3 but you’ll have a hard time finding people disputing it as the best phone camera in regards to the quality of its images. The OnePlus 7 Pro outscores the Pixel yet I haven’t seen a single claim that it’s actually a better camera experience.
Interesting about the charging times in that video too!
Very impressive. With times like that, from the stock charger, how are they gonna even sell the 45W charger? With the new records the Note10 is setting in camera, display, and storage, I'm feeling like a proud new Papa. Lol
So the Note 10 has the same camera as the S10+ (aside from tof) but DXO give it their highest ever score, as if it’s some kind of revolutionary camera set up? Ok then.
It's all about the software. But to be fair, let's wait for real life usage. I think with any flagship these days, the camera performance gap is incredibly small.
First of all:
1. It's not like I want to impose my opinion
2. It's not like if I own one certain phone, then I want to impose it to you
But,
My LG V50 is phenomenal when it comes to videos and photos and I also know the note 10 has exactly the same 3 cameras setup.

Looked at the Note 10 today. Beautiful phone. It seems like it is all screen. Very impressive display. It also seems thinner and lighter than the S10. The S10 has slightly rounded edges and a stainless or chrome bezel. I was never a big fan of stainless bezels anyways. The s10 Looks more like the iPhone. I have the iPhone XS. It is working for me at the moment, but the note 10 is a really nice phone. I prefer the Note 10 over the Note 10+.
LG used to get much more love on the forums and in the press. I never even used to have to go hunting for info on their latest and greatest, it was just out there. Honestly until you made your post I kind of forgot they existed. Which is silly since so many of the features I'm always going on about appeared on or was heavily marketed on LG phones first.
So if you trade in every year the average yearly cost for the note line? $500? I pay $624.5 on IUP to get a new XS Max (or whatever it’ll be called) every year.
That doesn’t include any freebies that Samsung gives for preordering. It is definitely the better value proposition.

Good for you if you only spend ~$30 on protecting your $1000 smart phone, many spend much more and when you compare OEM prices my estimate is not unreasonable but there are as always options and exceptions out there
On paper, yes. In person I thought that the screen, at least, looked fantastic on the smaller Note 10. It was sharp and crisp and compares very well to the one on my S10+ on maxed out settings.
I couldn't evaluate the battery. I don't even have the experience of the smaller S10 to compare it to.
I couldn't see a difference between the note 10 and 10+ screens either. HDR content from YouTube looked amazing on both.

A small confession
While in London at the MS store admiring the Note's I did pop in to the Regent St Apple store just 50 yards away and make a purchase :
I know what it's like in Malaysia and these will be in short supply so 1% in Apple and 99% spent in Samsung seems fair

I agree. I looked at both today. The Note screen looks better than the S10 screen. I feel it has to do with the way the way the bezels (Or lack thereof) are shaped.
Minor improvements in algorithms, DOF/TOF and Video enhancements made it leap forward as its an overall score
I’m sure mate 30 pro will get higher mark as that seems how it works.
Great if true though. Samsung need to get back to being dominate camera wise.
On my honeymoon I was shocked how bad my night photos were on the max
Guessing night sight mode is better on the note 10 than was on the S10 at launch
There’s the time of flight lens, the aperture on the telephoto lens is down to 2.2 and there are some software enhancements for Video recording.

The S10 got an update a few months ago and now has a dedicated night mode.
Yeah wasn;t sure if it was improved further...wasn’t sure how it compared to the pixel for example
[doublepost=1565703576][/doublepost]Looks like the 45w charger on mobile fun will cost 39.99 although I know it’s always more expensive on there.
Anybody heard what the projected speeds are from 0-100% on the 45w charger?
You made your mind up yet lol you getting the S10 or note? What made you decide to consider it again?
Not yet. I’m too indecisive lol
I was not happy that we didn’t get split screen apps in iOS 13. iPadOS is good but iOS 13 doesn’t really do anything for the iPhone.
Having said all of that I’m feeling lazy to change my set up and I know 2 phones don’t work for me.
