But Samsung is clearly up for the challenge. Samsung's phones become more expensive if you opt for the versions with more storage. The S10 Plus does a decent job getting some color out of the pitch-black room. Winner: Pixel 3 Performance Comparing the performance of the various S10 and Pixel 3 models comes down to a tale of two Snapdragons. You can see the benefit of the Galaxy S10's extra lenses when we tested out portrait shots. Samsung's fingerprint sensor is hidden behind the screen this time around, while Google's is on the back. Granted, it's more subdued now, but we like it.
It also supports reverse wireless charging, a feature featured on few previous phones. The Galaxy S10+ also sports three cameras on the back, and those cameras are horizontally-aligned. In either case, you're going to get faster hardware performance with the Galaxy S10+, although you probably won't notice it in day-to-day usage. So is the Galaxy S10+. You can buy it unlocked or from all the major carriers. As we can see here, the S10+ result looks a bit too smoothed out and overprocessed. This gives the phone an impressive overall screen-to-body ratio of 93.
We appreciate things like Samsung Pay, but we could live without Bixby, for example. The Galaxy S10+'s display has a considerably higher resolution, and on top of that is considered to be one of the best smartphone displays out there, period. Suffice it to say, Samsung's phones outshine the Pixels, with the Galaxy S10e reaching 603 nits while the S10 Plus hit 625 nits when we shone a flashlight at its sensor. This one's clear-cut to us. The S10 cameras are a big improvement over past Samsung efforts, and in a few areas, the latest Galaxy phones produce better photos than what you'll get from the current Pixels. The Pixel 3's pictures look a bit more unrealistic than the Galaxy S10e's, but that's actually what most people prefer anyway, and it really doesn't have to be a bad thing. Some users may prefer that, as it helps really embed the subject in their surroundings.
Well, if we look at them overall, the Galaxy S10+ takes the cake, as it should, it's much more expensive and in a completely separate category of phones. But from this particular comparison with the Pixel 3, we can clearly see Samsung has stepped up its portrait game with the S10+. It'll get you a solid day's usage, but push hard with games and streaming media and you might need a top-up. It enables you to charge any Qi-certified device with your S10 Plus, which could prove handy in a pinch. It simply has the best smartphone screen available today by any measure, and excels in all of the areas you want: great colors, high contrast, amazing brightness, and good pixel density. Google got so close to making a slick-looking phone here, but those miscues make it look pretty awkward instead. The little plastic band between the screen and aluminium sides is a head-scratcher, though.
If you've got several hundred quid to drop on a huge Android phone this spring, which one should it be? Despite sticking to just a 12. The phone is made mostly out of metal, with a glass panel at the top of its back side. Google's smartphone efforts have gotten incrementally better, culminating in the current Pixel 3 and , a pair of strong pure Android phones. However, the S10 kills it when it comes to charging capabilities and battery life. Having said that, the audio output is better from the Galaxy S10+, though that is to be expected. The screen is miles better.
Things get a little tricker in the camera department, however. That said, the S10 Plus does a better job keeping the shadows light in this photo. The hues in some of these knitted hats are a tad too extreme, especially with respect to pinks and reds. The Galaxy S10 comes with four cameras, an in-display fingerprint unlock, reverse wireless charging, and even a traditional headphone jack. The display is also a constant differentiator for Samsung, and the Galaxy S10+ is no exception. Galaxy S10 Plus The and S10 Plus also save screen real estate via an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor that lives under the display.

But before you go out and purchase the newest Galaxy S phone, you may want to consider whether it's the best phone to suit your smartphone needs. Google's phones are no slouch on performance, and when issues have arisen with the Pixel 3, Google has rolled out software fixes in pretty short order. Because Google runs the show, though, you're going to get software updates faster if you have a Pixel. The results are pretty straightforward. What I am interested in and maybe even a little conflicted over is comparing it to the Pixel 3. Winner: Galaxy S10 Cameras Google has established the Pixel as the standard-setter for smartphone cameras, and it's not just hardware that sets these phones apart.

The S10 Plus did a better job keeping the tools in the background in focus. Samsung and Google have been intertwined for seemingly ages now due to Android, but these allies are also more recently rivals when it comes to Android hardware. Both work well enough, but finding the exact spot to place your finger on the turned-off Galaxy S10+ screen can be a little frustrating at first.
The battery life is better. It even has vapor chamber cooling for keeping the heat down during gaming. The S10 offers hope for a similarly flexible shooter, with a telephoto lens and a wide-angle lens combining with a variable aperture main sensor. Both of these phones are extremely capable in both regular and low light, sunset, and sunrise, and so on. Galaxy S10 Plus The S10 Plus renders those colors more accurately, though, with a Delta-E score of 0.
