Pulling No Punches Samsung Galaxy S10+

The Samsung Galaxy S10+ has a lot to live up to given it is the 10th anniversary of the Galaxy range. The Korean smartphone maker has left no stone unturned to pull all the stops and cram in nearly everything but the kitchen sink without resorting to adding useless gimmicks.

We got the Prism Blue model, a shade that’s become quite synonymous with a majority of Samsung devices. It looks pretty snazzy when light reflects on it at certain angles but doesn’t fall into the trap of verging into chintzy territory. This is important now since the Gorilla Glass 5 clad back can only withstand so many drops before shattering. Curiously, the top is protected by the newer Gorilla Glass 6 making us wonder why it wasn’t applied on both sides. The rear is nearly empty except for the horizontally aligned cameras and heart rate sensor. At the top lies the hybrid tray allowing operation of dual nano SIM or one with a microSD card while the bottom houses the speaker grille, USB Type-C port and headphone jack. On the right is the power button that for some mysterious reason has been placed too high up and the same can be said for the volume rocker resting at the same height on the left side. Right below it is the Bixby button, the only one that can be pressed easily without adjusting the S10+ in our hand. Like last time, it is IP68 rated guaranteeing protection against dirt, dust, sand and water submersion upto a maximum depth of 1.5m for 30 minutes. Overall, it exudes a classy aura with excellent craftsmanship that is completely befitting and expected from a flagship-grade device like the S10+.
