Probably try to sell for €450 or just over. Should get rid of it for €400-450.

Definitely. Looks great. I especially like the swipe down gesture on the fingerprint scanner to pull down the notification bar.

That's one thing on the S9 that's very handy and intuitive to pulldown the notification centre. Wouldn't say no to the fingerprint option on the back as well as the under display option on the S10.

I just screenshot my confirmation email from 3

Same but it's doesn't state the date in the order itself only on the top which has the date/time the email was received

Don't find the battery on the s10 great overall get about 9/10 hours with overall 3.5 screen time. I have all the apps powered too sleep when there not in use.

Still love the phone though it's so smooth

Still waiting on my pre-order to be shipped and very tempted to cancel altogether and wait for the Note 10 / Pixel offering.

Ordered a case and not impressed with the power button location. what were they thinking?!

So how are people finding the camera and fingerprint scanner?

Camera amazing.
Fingerprint sensor so so
Power button stupid place

Reviewers reporting that the side fingerprint sensor on the S10E works faster than the on screen one.
Also the S10E to me looks to be a very good value option (per say). Only thing is the smaller battery capacity.
Could be great when the prices drops.

As an aside.
Have had a Sony in the past with similar and that the side sensor to be an ideal position. I've had phones with front and back sensors to compare too.

I'd love to get the S10E, as I'd prefer the side sensor and non curved glass (i'd like to use a glass protector) but for an extra 100 quid you're getting a better camera and battery among other things, it would be a shame to go for the E model as much as I'd want to

The front sensor is very useful if you put the phone on a desk. S10 - place finger and unlocked.

S9 - pick up the phone, press finger on the back and then put the phone down again.

It might seem a small thing but if you spend a lot of the time at a desk this saves a lot of time.

Gwildor · 14-03-2019 08:04PM

I've had my S10+ a few days now and am completely in love with it. Way better than the iPhone XS Max that it replaced, IMO.
The screen is amazing and battery life is very good. I recorded the same fingerprint twice and had zero issues or lag when unlocking. As said above, the camera is awesome. And I actually quite like the power button placement and don't understand what others find wrong with it?

Im trying to claim my free galaxy ear buds, the first step is to:

Participants must complete the online claim form in the BENEFITS section of the Samsung Members app pre-installed on their new device. Participants might have to create a Samsung account if not already registered. To complete the online claim, upload proof of purchase or Pre-Order advice notice and provide all other required information

so I have created a Sumsung account and then looked up the Samsung members app on the phone and there is no option/place/facility to do anything here about benefits, anybody else having problems trying to do this?!

Use the website instead.

Just did it and took pics of receipts and that.

Theres a thread open on the android forum specifically for the buds application

thanks a mill, I would never have been able to apply for them without your advice!

Is anyone going to get the better US Snapdragon/Adreno version to try here? Anyone know of any downsides?

PTH2009 · 16-03-2019 08:38PM

If you're not extra rough with a phone then you haven't needed one on a Samsung since the Galaxy S6.

On the flip side if you want to go all out the white stone dome protector is expensive but seems to work well with finger print sensor.

Ordered one myself after the trash my s8 screen has become.

Anyone know how to stop the no signal notification? Signal in my wife's parent's house is patchy and everytime the signal drops I get a beep and a vibration to tell me the signal has dropped, very annoying.

I'd say it's Settings> Notifications> tap see all> next click the three dots in the
top right-hand corner & click show system apps> Now look for Android System &
open it> scroll down till you see the three Network options, set those to your liking.

That's what I think you are looking for.

Yep I'd say that's it, thanks!

I'm on 3 network (prepay). Where would be the cheapest to get the S10? Eglobal?

Would I still be entitled to the earbuds?

Edit: just seen the free buds offer ended on 7th march.

Don't see the value in buying at full price minus the free buds so I'll be waiting for the p30 reveal and a price drop in the S10.

I probably should have pre ordered

I bought a S9+ and a Note 9 off eglobal and no issues. but delivery is usually circa 1 week-3weeks but you can save a few euro.

Inquitus · 17-03-2019 12:22PM

Which networks are shipping Dual Sim? Mine from Voda is a SM-G975F/DS, the DS denoting dual SIM, but I know for instance 3 are shipping the single sim version.

I bought my s10 from eglobal, took about six days to get it .I had a HTC u11 before it but it was stolen (no insurance )So far I regret paying the extra for the s10 ,the fingerprint front and back on the HTC was quicker to react (could that mean it's easier to fool ?). There's a bigger difference in the size of the screen than I thought there would be.
I think the s10 might be quicker to react though and I haven't had time to explore all the features yet so I hope I will prefer the s10 in time if I get it setup to my preferences.

Cancelled my preorder and bought in 3 store yesterday. They are all dual SIM.

Going to try still get the earbuds by contacting Samsung and explaining that I pre-ordered from one store but bought from another due to their stupid stock issues
