The rings look like traffic lights and bit exposed but overall looks really cool, love it.

Have no idea where the "screens must be curved on flagships" rubbish comes from.

Unless you are using a $199 phone yes all Samsung flagships are curved so deal with it.

Thought the note line are supposed to be not that curved? Would prefer flat displays

Samsung have a strong reason not to reverse the flat design of their flagship lines but not sure what it is. Sadly this is the only disadvantage of Note10.

You make it sound like they have to be curved, which they dont.

Not really, especially the Note line i really wish they were flat as their tablets. How come Samsung tablets are not curved yet?

That’s nice but I am not liking the curved glass.

GrumpyMom are we gonna see you with a Lilac Note20+ in few months? Your record says 99.99 yes 🙂🙃

That's exactly it. They don't have to be curved, but because they've started making them that way, they've stuck with it. Which if they listened to customers, they'd at the very least try a year with flat displays.

Even if they made them slightly bigger and curved the glass but kept the display area flat would be better.

I’m just speculating here... but I think Samsung curve their S series and Note line for marketing advantages. To claim their screen size is this gigantic amount and addition to narrowing the width of the phone in order for one hand use. When they do that... it helps Samsung market the screen to body ratio.

Now that Samsung has done this plenty of Android OEM is following suit. However I do wish the phones wasn’t so curve...

I have the Galaxy S10e which as far as I am aware does NOT have a curved screen. It is a great phone.

Well, the Note 10+ is a great phone as well. And yeah, I believe the S10e screen does curve... it’s not as dramatic as the Note line. And the Note line is much more noticeable due to the boxy design compare to a round design of the S series.

Many customers are not liking the narrow and curved screen. If Note20 is long and narrow i am keeping my Note10. At least Note10 looks wide.

I think at this point... Samsung is trying to compete with Android OEMs. I mean, don’t get me wrong... I’m sure Samsung cares about their customers. But I think since Samsung sits at the top in the Android space, they wanna make sure to have the marketing advantage. I mean, look at Galaxy Fold... imo, I think that’s going to be the future when it comes to smart phones.

I've decided I will not update to the Note 20. My Note 10+ is just too good. Don't have a single issue with it. At this point, the only upgrade worthwhile for me is a foldable. Right from the start, I've planned for the third gen Galaxy Fold, and that's what I'm sticking to. I'm hoping Sammy have the Spen fully integrated with the Fold line by then. And I hope they use the new Exynos/AMD GPU chipset for all Galaxy Fold 3 variants.

Were there any free gifts in UK with note 10? From memory I feel it’s always saved for the S line

I have my eye on the Fold 2 due this fall as well :)

I've decided the Note 10 will keep me happy for another year, Exynos (has been a champ really) and all, but also know I'm such a sucker for a good perceived deal and will likely pre-order on day one.

With me it really depends on first impression , i have to hold the phone at least 5 minutes, see it, feel it , promotions, bonuses, freebie....

Samsung must make up for the last 4-6 months losses and sell as many units as possible so i am expecting price drop or great bonuses and promotions ???
