For the first time ever, there's a plus model of Samsung's S Pen smartphone. Here's why you'll want the Galaxy Note 10+ if you like having extras.

If you're looking for a smartphone with lots of power, sophisticated software, a great display and a good camera, the Galaxy Note 10 Plus is for you. However, you have to keep in mind that the Galaxy smartphone is quite expensive on the one hand and quite big on the other - the former has to be...

Great design; Outstanding display; Impeccable performance; Very good camera; New functions for the S-Pen; 5G option

Large and unwieldy; Keys on the left-hand side; Weak night photos; Expensive

At release the Galaxy Note 10 Plus was Samsung's biggest and most powerful phone, and its Aura colors almost symbolically reflect smartphone luxury top to bottom. The hand-stretching 6.8-inch display is perfectly paired with the S Pen and an extra-big battery. Sure, it's technically neither the fastest nor the best camera phone, but it's the most fun we've had testing a phone in 2019 thanks to its five cameras and smart photo filters. This is one to get if you want to bask in pre-foldable phone opulence.

Supremely expensive; Big and slippery design; Camera isn't 'the best'

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus is the true successor to the Note 9. It’s a brute of a phone with a lovely display, plenty of grunt and a huge battery. There isn’t a whole lot new when compared to the S10 – but this still stands as the true high-end Samsung phone for the end of 2019. It also remains between this and the OnePlus 7 Pro for best big phone around. The Note 10 Plus has more features than the OnePlus – Qi charging, water-resistance, included USB-C buds – but I do love the 90Hz screen on the 7 Pro. Plus it’s notably cheaper than Samsung’s efforts.

Lovely big screen; Very quick to charge; S Pen is useful; Versatile cameras;

Camera isn’t quite up there with the best; Dodgy Live Video bokeh mode; 65w charger not included;

Samsung closed the camera gap with rivals and created a top-of-the-line phone for people who want the best Android has to offer.

The Galaxy Note 10 Plus delivers the premium goods; from a killer 6.8-inch screen and all-day battery life to excellent camera tools.

The Note 10 Plus is expensive; There's no headphone jack, which will disappoint long-time Samsung fans; The depth-sensing camera is extremely limited.

After spending a couple of hours with the Note 10 Plus at a pre-briefing, I've now had a full week with it and my own T-Mobile SIM. My Galaxy Note 9 is still an amazing device and I haven't experienced any problems with it.

Samsung makes excellent phones that check nearly every box of what you'd want in a device: a clear, brilliant screen. Great cameras . Strong battery life. But it's been years since all the individual parts have come together in a way that makes me sit back and say, "Wow.

To conclude this review, we can definitely say that the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is an absolutely gorgeous device with great performance, camera and battery. The S-Pen also offers a lot of amazing features.

The Note 10+ is in a class of its own. I really don't understand why people buy other phones. The display is stunning and the one hole in the center for the front camera is much better than the 2/3 holes on the right of the S10+ and the notch of the iphone.
