REVIEW

If you zoom in on these portraits, you’ll see
that the Note10+ (left) did a better job with
the edges and the bokeh, but it’s extremely
similar to the S10+ (centre) and note 9 (right)


as well as AR applications. The bundled Measure app
works as well, but so do the ones on the Pixel and
iPhone, without a 3D camera. The S Pen-powered AR
Doodle is way more unique and fun, using the camera
to track drawings you make on faces, but I don’t know
how often people will use it. There’s also a 3D scanner
built in that I had no luck with, but with patience,
people have been able to generate usable images.
The 3D camera will mostly be used for portraits,
and it’s there where the S10+ excels. Live focus images
(Samsung’s name for portraits) were excellent, with
crisp edges and recognition of the tiniest details, but
the differences between the Note10+ and the S10+
or even the Note 9 are marginal. You’ll need to zoom
in on the image above to see the fine details that the
Note10+ picked up.
