REVIEW
As far as the other three cameras go, you’ll certainly
take great pictures with the Note10+, but they’re
no better or worse than the other Galaxy phones
Samsung sells. In fact, Samsung uses the same S10+
designation for the camera model (SM-G975U1),
making it even more difficult to tell the pictures apart.
Colours still lean a bit toward over-saturated in most
lights, but most people won’t mind.
New to the Note10+ is the Night mode that arrived
late to the S10, and it definitely helps with low-light
shooting. Like Google’s method, you need to hold
your phone steady while it processes the available
light, but the results aren’t quite as spectacular. Night
photos looked less realistic on the Note10+, and the
processing engine tended to get confused by the
dominant colour and had trouble focusing, where
Google’s Pixel Visual Core handled the scene much
better. But it’s definitely a step in the right direction.
Verdict
There probably isn’t anything I wrote in this review
that’s going to sway you to buy or not buy a Galaxy
Note10+. With a £999 price tag and top-of-the-line
everything, it’s geared toward the Android user who
wants the best, and boy, does it deliver.
And really, there’s no reason to wait. The Note 11+
(assuming there is one) will have a better camera and
maybe a few display and design tweaks, but there
isn’t too much Samsung can do to make it all that
much better than the Note10+. Until folding phones
become a viable product or in-display cameras
arrive, the Note10+ is pretty much the epitome of
