Upcoming Samsung Galaxy S10 Rumors, date, price, and leaks.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 has the potential to be the most exciting phone of 2019, as after the incremental upgrade that was the Samsung galaxy S9 the South Korean firm is poised for a major overhaul.
The Samsung Galaxy S9 and Samsung galaxy S9 plus are strong, but not 5 stars strong, and we’re going to need to see some big changes for the brand to stay on top, especially in the face of fiercer competition from the likes of Apple and Huawei.
We don’t know much about the Galaxy S10 yet, but we are starting to hear a number of rumors, all of which you’ll find below.
And below that you’ll find a wish list of the main things we want - nay, need - from the phone, including an in-screen fingerprint scanner and a fresh design.
Samsung Galaxy S10 release date and price:
The Samsung Galaxy S10 launch date is is likely to be in early 2019. More specifically we'll probably see it at MWC 2019, which takes place from February 25-28.
Not only does a leaker claim we will see it then but Samsung announced the Galaxy S9 range at MWC 2018, so the 2019 show is the most likely release date.
When it does go on sale it’s sure to cost a lot. There aren’t any Samsung Galaxy S10 price rumors yet, but the Galaxy S9 launched at $719.99 / £739 / AU$1,199, while the Samsung galaxy S9 plus went on sale for $840 / £869 / AU$1,349.
We’d expect the Galaxy S10 range will cost at least that much when it does arrive.
Samsung Galaxy S10 design and display:
Latest Leaks:
1. Three different screen sizes.
2. A bezel-free design.
3. 19:9 aspect ratio and 1440 x 3040 resolution display.
According to Samsung's mobile business chief, DJ Koh, the Samsung Galaxy S10 will have some very significant design changes and come in some "amazing" colors.
He didn't get more specific than that, but a very
for a mystery Samsung phone which could be the S10 points to a 19:9 aspect ratio, which would make it taller than the 18.5:9 Galaxy S9.
Along with that the benchmark suggests a resolution of 1440 x 3040, which would be a slight boost, and there's every chance that to achieve those things Samsung would slim the bezels, fitting a larger, sharper screen into the same size body.
We've also seen a photo, possibly showing a prototype of the Samsung Galaxy S10 (though notably the source didn't refer to it by name but did say "this may be a design beyond", and 'Beyond' is believed to be the codename of the Galaxy S10).
The image, which you can see below, shows a handset with a curved screen and almost no bezel on any edge. There seems to be less bezel in fact than we've seen on any other phone, suggesting the front-facing camera may either pop up or be built into the screen.
When it comes to the screen though it’s worth noting that there’s sure to be more than one size. In fact, this time around there must be three.
One of these, apparently code named 'Beyond 0', is said to have a 5.8-inch screen which might be flat.
That would be the most basic model, but there's also said to be 'Beyond 1', which apparently has a 5.8-inch curved screen, and 'Beyond 2', with a 6.2-inch curved screen.
Samsung Galaxy S10 cameras:
Latest leaks:
1. A triple-lens rear camera on the top-end model2. 12MP, 13MP and 16MP lenses
3. A dual-lens front-facing camera
An analyst reckons Samsung is considering a triple-lens camera for the Samsung Galaxy S10, along with a 3D sensor for augmented reality content.
Analyst chatter isn’t always that reliable, but it would make sense if Samsung wants to compete with the Huawei P20 Pro and the rumored triple lens iphone.
It's also a rumor that we've now heard again, with a source claiming that while the most basic model of the Galaxy S10 might have just a single-lens camera and the middle model might have a dual-lens one, the biggest (and most expensive) version of the Samsung Galaxy S10 would have a triple-lens camera.
Samsung Galaxy S10 Processor & RAM:
Latest leaks:
1. A Snapdragon 855 or Exynos chipsets.
2. 8GB of RAM
We also have an idea of what might be powering the Samsung Galaxy S10, as it’s reportedly going to use the unannounced Snapdragon 855 (at least in some regions). This is said to be a 7nm chipset, which is smaller and likely both more powerful and more efficient than the Snapdragon 845 found in many of 2018’s flagships.
The 855 is also said to be capable of supporting theoretical download speeds of up to 2Gbps, up from 1.2Gbps on the Galaxy S9 – though don’t expect to get speeds anywhere near this in the real world. Still, it could be a big upgrade.
As could the RAM, as Samsung has announced that it's developed an 8GB RAM chip built on a 10nm process. This, while not confirmed for the Galaxy S10, apparently has a data rate that's 1.5 times as fast as current flagship RAM chips and can also reduce power consumption by up to 30%.
As good as the Samsung Galaxy S9 is, it’s also rather too similar to the Samsung Galaxy S8, so we hope Samsung changes things up for the S10. Here’s what we want to see in new galaxy phone.
1. A new design.
2. Better battery life.
3. A triple cameras.
4. In display Fingerprint sensor.
5. Totally Bezel-free screen.
If Samsung follows its usual smartphone release cycle, the Galaxy S10 will likely be announced in February and released to buy in March, much like the Galaxy S9 & S9 Plus.
