Customers are satisfied with the Galaxy S10+ for its large 1TB storage, long battery life, and high-quality camera. The phone also offers wireless charging and various other features. While some customers find the price to be a bit high, many believe it is worth the investment for the quality and features they receive.
If you're in the market for a new phone, definitely consider the fabulous Samsung Galaxy S10+. It's beautiful, powerful and responsive. I got the one with the white ceramic back which makes the phone feel substantial. It's also very slippery, and more than a few times when I placed it near the edge of my mattress, the phone would wind up on the floor. Also the curved edges of the screen would make it hard to hold the phone and at the same time let you navigate the screen because it sensed that you were already touching the screen at the edges. Both the slippery problem and the touch sensitivity problems were solved by getting the Samsung LED wallet cover, which I also highly recommend. I never really cared about screen protectors, but the phone came with a screen protector pre-installed so I kept it on, and I don't notice it affecting performance or "smudging" at all. The on-screen fingerprint scanner works fine with the screen protector as well, and there was recently a "biometrics update" to improve the performance of the fingerprint scanner. Sometimes it's still hit-and-miss for me, and sometimes it takes several tries to unlock the screen, but it's not frustrating or anything. One feature I really love is the fact that this phone still has the headphone jack. Even better, it has the hardware inside the phone to receive local FM radio stations! You'll have to go to the Play Store to download an app to use that feature. I chose an app called NextRadio which automatically scans and lists the FM stations that can be pulled in "from the air." The app doesn't have a function to stream music over wi-fi or anything, but you can always use iHeartRadio, Pandora, Spotify etc for that. For your local over-the-air stations, you'll need headphones with the jack because the headphone wires serve as the antenna. When you're not listening to local FM stations on the phone, I have the Samsung Galaxy Buds wireless earbuds, and it's great because this phone automatically recognizes the earbuds and pairs with them. The app for the earbuds also gives you options for programming controls, enhance sound dynamics, etc. Plus they sound great and can be charged wirelessly from the back of the phone itself! The Samsung Galaxy S10+ also supports Qi wireless fast charging, which essentially means you don't have to plug in the USB-c cable in order to charge the phone if you have a compatible wireless charger. Personally I chose the iOttie iON wireless mini fast charging pad, and it works great. Be sure to center the phone on the charging pad, and it will give you an audible confirmation that charging has started, to make sure it's on there correctly. Even though this phone has plenty of memory for my needs, I still inserted a micro SD card. I store my music, videos, pictures, you know, "media" on the card just so it doesn't potentially "gum up" the phone's memory in the future. The SD card performs quickly and seamlessly. For folks who want the option to have two different wireless carriers, then instead of the SD card, you can have two sim cards inserted. Maybe that would make sense for people who travel overseas and want to have a second sim card for that purpose. It's just a thoughtful touch from Samsung to include that ability. Overall, I have no complaints, and it's so powerful, I feel like I have a computer in my pocket whenever I go somewhere. As I said before, to me it's definitely a worthy flagship phone and worth considering for anyone looking for a full-featured and highly capable phone.

I'm upgrading from Note 8 to Galaxy S10+ with 512gb space. I like the 3 cameras on the back and 2 on the front. The pictures come out so clean and nice. 4K recording front and back. I tested the wireless charging and it worked. Tested with a iPhone and my Samsung Gear watch. Worked great. Nice display with dual speakers which sound really good. So I had face unlock setup on the phone. That wasn't good. My cousin unlocked my phone. Not sure how that worked. The finger scanner doesn't work correctly. I have to put my finger on the scanner for few seconds and then it locks. The phone crashed on me few times, don't know why. Now i'm just waiting on the free headphones I got with the phone. Can't wait to test those and test them in the gym.
