The smartphone space is a bit perplexing these days. The long-standing definition of Android flagship smartphones has changed somewhat. The traditional flagship Android phones as we knew them all along, now have competition from those that called themselves ‘flagship killers' till a few years ago,...

Samsung's Galaxy S10+ is packed to the gills with features, and while all of the new stuff is cool, they could use improvement.

The Galaxy Fold may have dominated the headlines this year but Samsung's marketable device for now is the Galaxy S10. Officially launched in India, the Galaxy S10 Plus is the yearly update to Samsung's flagship devices.

The Galaxy S10+ is exactly what you'd expect out of Samsung's tenth flagship handset. After all, the company's been making these for a decade, and knows what works. The S10+ is a winning mix of powerful performance, long-lasting battery, stunning display and capable cameras.

Excellent battery life; One UI is a welcome refresh; Surprisingly helpful Bixby Routines; Big; beautiful HDR10+ display; Versatile triple camera setup

AR emoji are unrecognizable; Low light shots are subpar

It's something of a perfect coincidence that Samsung's Galaxy S10+ goes on sale the same day Captain Marvel lands in theaters. Both were once the most powerful members of their respective universes. Both are struggling with an identity crisis spurred by a larger-than-life existential threat.

In-display fingerprint sensor is a little finicky; Hole in the display is an eyesore; Samsung's photo processing nowhere as good as Google's

In the Galaxy S10+, Samsung takes an appealing device, adds features and technologies to make sure it's ahead of the pack, and rolls on. The integration of the front cameras into the display are Samsung's way of saying that, actually, it was right not to use a notch, while the ultrasonic fingerprint...

Great best-of-class performance; Gorgeous HDR+ display; Excellent camera performance; Innovative; useful camera features; Wireless PowerShare; Great battery life; Beautiful; sleek industrial design; Expandable storage

Expensive; Ultrasonic fingerprint reader not as convenient

For me, the Samsung Galaxy S10+ is the benchmark for an Android flagship at the moment. This phone is not about gimmicks, but about making life better whatever you do. This will be the phone others will be playing catch up with for rest of the year.

The Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus is powered by the Exynos 9820 mated to 8GB of RAM and packs 128GB of onboard storage. What really makes the phone stand apart is an industry leading display and the triple camera

A very impressive display; Impressive performance; Camera performance is good; but could be better

Super Night Shot doesn't become active in most scenarios; No access to telephoto or ultra-wide camera in Pro mode; The phone is very slippery
