Aside from a few small changes or software tweaks, the physical internals are rather similar. The Note 10 does have some important upgrades that future-proof it a little more than the S-series.
Galaxy S10+ Specs
- 6.4-inch Quad-HD Curved Infinity AMOLED Display
- Snapdragon 855 Processor with 8-12GB of RAM
- 128, 512, or 1TB of internal storage (MicroSD slot included)
- 8-12GB of RAM

- Triple Rear Cameras: 12, 12, 16MP (Regular variable aperture, telephoto, and super wide-angle) Main 12MP Dual Pixel will still have OIS, 960 FPS slo-mo, and more
- Dual 8 and 10MP front-facing camera inside the screen (top right corner)

That's still a great phone, but this is even better. Galaxy Note 10 Specs

The key talking points here are the bigger screen, better and more powerful cameras, and the fact that both phones come with AT LEAST 256GB of storage, which is a big deal. More and more these days 64 or even 128GB simply isn't enough. We're glad to see the lowest option is 256GB. By moving the cameras to the side and the fingerprint scanner inside the glass, that gives them more room in the actual housing for a bigger battery. As a result, the Note 10 will last all day thanks to a superfast charging 4,300 mAh battery under the hood. Additionally, you can pay extra for a new 45w fast charging wall plug that will charge the Note 10+ even faster.
