Supply for the last 2 Pixels has been really good in the UK, so that's not a worry. But I definitely wouldn't want a repeat of sending back 3 Pixels like the 2XL. But I'm confident it'll be much better this time.
Nope...sitting this year out....My Xs Max is going to make due for another year.All you fools will be switching to the iPhone next month
I for one miss your write upsJust a couple of thoughts since using this thing virtually all day.
I'll start by saying - for those who missed it - I've only bought this with the view to return it in the returns window as my Pixel 3 is currently being replaced by Google and I'm phoneless for two weeks. I could be tempted to stick with the Note 10 if I like it, but I'd already told myself I wouldn't end up doing that as me and Samsung generally don't go too well together.
Anyway, after a day's heavy use including setting the phone up, taking a ton of pictures and just using it as I would normally day to day, I really like it...
Samsung have made a really nice phone here, but I did think the same about the S10 which I owned briefly earlier in the year.
They certainly know how to do hardware anyway.
Curved screens are not really my bag at all, but the smaller device means less false touches (so far) which is welcome. I went with the smaller N10.
I really dislike anything other than stock Android, but seeing as I'm using this for two weeks I have decided to go with One UI and see how it treats me. I actually don't mind it too much. There are some nice tweaks, like not having to press and hold and app and then drag it to the top of the screen to uninstall, or remove from home. Just press it for a set of options - much better.
The haptics need to be mentioned. I know I posted on it earlier, but they're fantastic. The best Android haptics I've used yet (along with Pixel 3). They just feel great when typing on Gboard. Props to Samsung.
I have took a load of photos today with the phone and it really hasn't disappointed me at all. I have always found Samsung phones to have reliable, fast to shoot cameras, and this is no different.
Some shots taken today:
It never really misfired - sometimes 'live focus' would focus on the wrong thing and I'd get blur, but that aside it's really nice.
I do still prefer the Pixel camera hands down though.
Battery life has been a bit rubbish today, it came with like 40% and then I charged it after set up and it's never been over 50% as I've unplugged it and then used it heavily. Therefore I am reserving judgement until I've tested more.
There was a lot of bloat to remove - like Samsung Pay which I can't use (my bank doesn't support it) and I don't want so that's had to go. Same with a few other Samsung things (Bixby), but good I can turn them off.
I am missing the Google feed from Pixel, but I have just placed the Google app onto my homescreen which does the same job.
I have also taken up colouring with the stylus...
So relaxing! I can see me using the stylus for that alone.
Oh and for the odd note.
So far I don't hate it / want to run back to a Pixel.
I still prefer the Pixel overall just for the user experience it gives.
But the screen of the Note is so immersive it is crazy. It really is fantastic.
I will play a bit more with it over the weekend (bank holiday, yay!) and see how I feel about it then. So far though I'm really impressed.
Can I grab that wallpaper from you?Just a couple of thoughts since using this thing virtually all day.

If you are a die hard Pixel and stock Android fan...want the monthly updates and all that....you probably won't like the Note 10. The new toy tug is hard to resist huh?Ugh... Reading this thread is giving me mixed feelings
those photos are excellent, and your dog's cute as hell. congrats!Just a couple of thoughts since using this thing virtually all day.

Got the 8 and 9 currently and am debating the 10+.
September 4th is all the info he’s got from Samsung, still. That of course doesn’t mean anything as that is what my order was saying and then boom, it shipped.
Yeah I’m upgrading from my Xr.All you fools will be switching to the iPhone next month
While I do not place great reliance on league tables The Note 10 jumped from 5th to 1st place on DxOMark so they must of done something
Nah. iPhone pushed me to note 10 plus.All you fools will be switching to the iPhone next month
