New real-life pictures of Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus leak from China, brings new mystery

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 is launching in 2 weeks on the 7th August 2019, and despite numerous renders being leaked, we have only seen real-life pictures of the handset once or twice, after being spotted on a train and then leaked by the FCC.

Today reliable Samsung leaker Ice Universe posted new pictures of what appears to be the two models of the handset, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus.

The pictures are consistent with earlier leaks, but does bring one mystery – why does the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus have a larger cut-put around the front-facing camera than the Samsung Galaxy Note 10?

It is speculated that the Note 10 Plus, which is already confirmed to have an extra Time of Flight depth sensor on the back, may also feature additional below-screen sensors on the front also.

We had earlier heard the main camera in the Galaxy S10 offers f/1.5 + f/2.4, while Note 10 is said to offer an additional F1.8 step in between. That means that the camera won’t necessarily be able to handle darker or lighter scenes than the S10, but will have more options to handle situations well in-between, bringing it closer to an actual continuously variable aperture in a real DSLR.

In addition to an innovative camera, the Note 10 series is expected to feature 25w fast-charging port (up to 45w on the Note 10 Plus), UFS 3.0 storage, 12MP primary, 12MP telephoto and a 16MP ultra wide-angle lens in the Pro model, fingerprint reader, and 4,170mAh battery. The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 will come with the Exynos 9825 processor coupled with 12GB of RAM. Neither of the FCC models had 5G, suggesting a 3rd 5G model may be released.

The FCC pictures confirm that the larger of two Note 10 models will measure in at 162.5 millimetres across and 77.6 millimetres (the Note 9 was 161.9 x 76.4mm)

You’ll get two see two different screen sizes; 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED for the Pro model, while the regular Galaxy Note10 will offer a 6.3-inch display. It is expected to feature super-thin bezels and Sound on Display technology.
