Sometimes the tech gods send a sign. This week the sign was very clear — it's time to review the Samsung Galaxy S10.
The bottom line? It's really fast, has a great display and great cameras. It has lots of storage and RAM. There's not much negative to say, although it's a little expensive.
In other words, if you are looking for the best Android phone, you can't go wrong with the S10.
The Galaxy S10 is the flagship 6.1-inch phone, the S10+ is the step-up 6.4-inch phone and the S10e is the more affordable 5.8-inch model.
The S10 phones look like last year's S9 phones, but once you light up the screen, you will see the difference. The screen really does go edge to edge.
Unlike the iPhone, which uses a notch to house its cameras and sensors, the S10 phones use a hole in the actual LED panel. It looks like someone used a hole punch.
The sleep/wake button is on the right, while volume and a button to invoke Samsung's artificial assistant Bixby are on the left side. The charge/sync port on the bottom is USB-C, and there is still a headphone jack.
The battery in the Galaxy S10 has 3,400 milliamp hours of power, while the S10+ has a whopping 4,100 mAh. They can both charge through their USB-C port or wirelessly (at 15 watts), and they can both wirelessly charge other Qi-compatible devices.
Everyone has seen smartphones with dual cameras on the back, but the S10 and S10+ have three main cameras. The lenses are 26 mm (wide) for selfies, 52 mm (telephoto) and 12 mm (ultrawide).
