Samsung’s 5G-Ready S10 ‘X’ Sounds Like a Powerhouse That Will Wreck Your Wallet

Holy Guacamole.  The more news coming out about this phone.  The more I think my S9+ will last me till the S11.  More than likely will wait till just before the S12 comes out with how the prices are looking.

i don't like that phones for $1200+ are appearing to be the new standard.

The Galaxy S10 is only $899. Still too expensive, though.

$1k for the S10+.  As I said, will wait.  Unless they give me an unbelievable trade in offer, which I doubt.  

And here is the kicker.  S10, S10+, whatever the other S10 cheapo is.  They have 5G, but it's a first generation 5G that is already eclipsed by the second generation 5G chip that has already come out.

I hope you don't have Tmobile.  It's been confirmed that Tmobile's 5G won't work with the S10.

That's because devices for T-Mobile's network will require Qualcomm's upcoming second-generration modem, the X55, and that isn't yet available for devices.

Nope, Verizon. However, the 5G version of the S10 is a different phone. The standard S10 doesn't have 5G capability.

Wifey needed new phone since her very old phone (10 years - son's original 1st phone in middle school) went down for the count last week.

Went down to local Verizon (been with them over 15 years) store Sunday and got a buy one get one free deal on 2 S10e's. My LG4 was over 3 years old was acting up a bit, so I caved into a new phone which wasn't hard to do on the BOGOF deal.

So far doesn't have the "move the screens" either way feature (dead ends on right or left screen) that my LG4 had but certainly not a deal breaker for me.

So far in less than 2 days I'm really liking the new phone!

Is that the swipe left or right on the screen to move it?  It's a setting on the dead end.  Not sure how to do it on the Samsung UI.  But if you have Nova loaded as your UI, it's under the home screen/scroll/infinite scroll.

I've had the Galaxy S10 for about two weeks now. It's an excellent phone. No complaints.

I will check out the Nova UI in the morning! I do miss the infinite scroll feature. It's a "small" thing, but it's a feature that I do like to use.

So far 10 days into the new phone use and I really do like the s10e.

I love the Nova UI.  I've had it on every phone since the Galaxy S5.  Which is kind of funny, since I haven't changed my screen setup in about that long also.
