@DANIEL CHUKWUKERE Fr. iPhone is the best. I have iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 Pro Max in Silver. My main phone/daily driver is the iPhone 14 Pro Max. The other two iPhone’s are my backup devices.
Thank you for the honest review. I STILL have my note 10 plus and not thinking at all about an upgrade, no matter how many text verizon sends me and honestly i dont think there is any more innovation left for phones.
I still love mines, still looks brand new since I been having a water proof case since day 1. I have a s21 as a work phone and ain't much of a difference. I'll keep my note a lil while longer
The Note 10 plus is the best phone Samsung ever made in my opinion. Only thing it was missing for me was a headphone jack. I had the N10+ for almost two years, but upgraded to the S21 Ultra in the fall of last year. Sold my N10+ to a friend and was super sad to see it go. The 256gb + 12gb of RAM AND the ability to use expandable memory is the best value to this day IMO.
I'm an unapologetic 'phone guy'. I also love my Note 10 and still use it, but to me the Note 9 was the best Note . It had everything, plus no pin hole.
@@monke4070 One of them is me! I cant leave this phone. It still is super fast and responsive, no issues what-so-ever. Only problem - battery life is starting to show its downfall.
Absolutely, I'd trade-in my spare N10+ or even pay full price if they put the latest snapdragon chipset, a 120hz and up samsung panel (slightly bigger than the N10+ of course), the latest BT, expandable storage, and a 5,000mah or more battery (easily removable of course 😀) into a much more thicker N10+ frame w/ the latest gorilla glass in the front and matte finish on the back. Idgafabout cameras 😆, matter of fact, they could completely remove the front facing camera, and I wouldn't have any gripes about it. I'm just gonna end up covering it with some electrical tape that's perfectly cut out ⚫️ anyway 🤷♂️
I may sound obsessive, but my Note 10 Plus became a part of me the day I bought it. It's been 5 years since, and this phone has given me everything. I just can't let go. I want to use my Note 10 Plus for life, and if not, I'll just keep it as a prized possession. It doesn't matter if it's not worth a penny; it's worth a memory and the services it provided me.
I finally upgraded my note 10 plus after 4 or so years. I was able to get $1000 of credits, so I figured it was worth it. With that said, I absolutely LOVED that phone. It treated me well and was the first phone I kept that long. I have had my s23 ultra for a solid 6 hours now and I'm enjoying it so far. Hopefully, this one lasts me a long time too lol.
Niice. I have a mint condition Note 10+ with the factory screen protector still on it. I upgraded from an S5 to the Note10+ which was a humongous jump. Now it's not getting the battery life it used too and I'm leaning towards the s23 ultra. You still loving it? I hope I can get a nice credit too like you did lol.
It is just past mid-2023 and I still love my Note 10 Plus. I love the button placement, the 256gb + 12gb of RAM and the ability to use expandable memory.
I got the Star Wars N10+ too, 3+ years and still going strong. When time comes to upgrade, I want more of a difference than even what the S23 Ultra offers. Even then, I'll put the N10+ and all it's accessories back into the Star Wars box and keep it as a collector. Who knows what it'll fetch in 10 or 15 years time!
I've owned a Note 20 Ultra for just over 2 weeks now. Having a 120hz display I don't feel left behind at all. I even have the latest One UI 5.1 update. And the design is still very modern. Great phone!
I'm still loving my Note 10 Plus. I finally cracked the screen after almost for years. I debated on getting the S23 Ultra for $11 a month with AT&T. I decided to go with a refurbished Note 10 Plus 5G. It's the design and color for me. I love the smaller cameras and the Aura Glow. I hate the matte finish and boring colors on the S23 Ultra. My Note 10 Plus still does everything I need it to do, and it does it well.
Still using my Note 10 Plus since I bought it early 2020. Only issue is that my battery isn't lasting as long as it used to. Cameras are still great though 👌
@@gheyonghi thats incorrect. You can charge however u want. There are very advanced AI tech inside that will manage the battery health automatically. A phone will never really charge to 100 percent and wont really go down to 0 percent either.
Bought note 10 plus 5g on release. Nearly 4 years. Still using in 2023 May as my primary phone. Still 🔥🔥🔥 and keep punching like Rocky Balboa. No issues. Super happy with my note 10 plus. ❤❤
They both have 6.8" screens, the 23 has 8GB ram but the 10+ has 12GB ram so more apps will be kept open in memory. The 23 has a better CPU of course but the 10+ is considerably lighter weight 1.5 oz lighter you for sure will feel that in the hand. Overall I have both the 23 for work and the 10+ for personal and I actually prefer the 10+ due to the lighter weight yet same screen size is much nicer to hold in the hand for long periods of time and games seem to run about the same for me, yes I ran games on my work one don't tell anyone lol
Like others I received $1k in trade in allowance through Verizon for my Note 10+. The S23 Ultra does have a faster response and has smoother screen transitions. I went for the 512gb version. The one thing I have learned is I will never go beyond three years before upgrading to another phone. I was considering moving to the iPhone for the first time but I'm glad I stayed with Android. Very good common sense video.
Stay with Android. I tried iPhone for a bit, felt like was sitting in a cage. Could not function in the boundaries in which Apple tries to confine us. Came back to Android.
It's a Matter of preference as far as going with iPhone or Samsung. However, Samsung has always been ahead of the tech curve. I phones are finally doing things Samsung did 5 yrs ago.
I never thought I would part with my Note 10+ but the S 23 Ultra made a compelling fight and won. I use an OTG for SD card support; It's not as bad as i thought it would be. The S23 Ultra is an upgrade in every way to the Note 10+. I ran my Note 10+ and S23 Ultra side by side for 3 weeks, then I started reaching for the S23 Ultra exclusively. There is a noticeable difference in daily usage vs the video comparisons. I'm not taking anything from our content creator videos because these reviewers spend a lot of time educating us on differences and recommendations. However, as GREAT as the Note 10+ is, it doesn't compare to the S23 Ultra in real life use, and I'm a Die Hard Note 10+ and just knew I wouldn't upgrade but I did and I'm happy!
Can you explain what you mean by OTG? I'm just siding whether or not to trade my Note 10 Plus in for the s230 ultra and seriously it's just the SD card issue for me. Sounds like you may have found a solution.
@@maryjeant OTG means On The Go. I purchased the UGREEN USB C Micro SD Card Reader Type C to MicroSD Card Adapter Zinc Alloy External Portable OTG Memory Card Reader for TF Micro SDHC SDXC Cards from Amazon. It is a small adapter that plugs into the USB C port on the phone. I didn't include the link because the link causes my comment to be deleted. My Experience: Transfer times 7 videos @ 11GB Total Size (Samsung EVO Plus U3 - 512GB microSD card) Note 10+ = 5 minutes 38 seconds UGreen OTG = 2 minutes 58 seconds SANDISK Portable SSD 1TB Drive (not SD Card) = 56 seconds
@@power2g So it's a portable micro USD that you use in place of the internal micro USD slot. Mean right now I'm just kind of backing everything up and buy everything I mean photos and videos to the Google cloud. So is there then a way to get all of the stuff off my microSD card and back into the s23 ultra by using this device? It was certainly be quicker than downloading everything again.
@@maryjeant If everything is already on your MicroSD card, just insert the card into the OTG adapter then plug it into your USB C port and the drive will show as storage and all your files on the SD Card will be accessible locally. You can move videos and pictures back and forth. When you want to access your files as if they are local just plug the OTG back into the USB C port. The real downside is it's an accessory you have to carry versus being embedded in the phone.
The S23U is worth the upgrade if money isn't a concern. Anything in between the Note10+ and S23U is not worth it. I made the mistake of switching to the S22U from the Note, and I was quite disappointed. Real world day to day performance, exactly the same. If anything, the Note10+ actually felt faster in some cases. Battery was a lot worse on the s22U. I actually dropped it several times because of the size and weight, after getting used to the Note. Cameras...better on the s22u, but not enough to compensate for the flaws. 60hz is indeed something you can't go back to, after using 120hz. I then got the s23U as I just could not imagine keeping the S22U for a long time. And yes, the S23U is what I actually had hopped the S22U to be. So keep the Note10+ if you already have one, or jump to the S23 if you want to upgrade now, don't do anything in between.
This is literally a mirror image of the opinion I have formed. I've kept my note10+ and I'm using the s23 ultra as my primary. S22U was a massive disappointment.
Hi Steve, Love the content as always. This S23 Ultra had me confused and jumping from one phone to another ha ha. I am the ultimate Note 10 Plus lover. But I sold my S22 Ultra! Bought the S23 Ultra. Tried it out. YES it is amazing but its heavy and sadly it does not change your life ha ha. Then I whipped out my S21 Ultra and was reminded about how comfy and great that phone is! Best phone on the planet you can get for under 400 bucks in my opinion. So I sent the S23 back! Sim is now in the S21 Ultra... BUT the Note 10 is looking at me from the corner of the room smiling.
I was skeptical to not moving to a phone without a sd card and i haven't made the jump to the newer phines yet....but you have to keep in mind that if you lose your phone or get it stolen they have all your pix in that sd card and with the phone without they will not be able to access that. That is something to think about. I don't want a stranger to have 12+ years of my life pix from that sd card.
That video was super helpful as I was JUST ABOUT to upgrade to the S23 from my Note 10 Plus but decided to research it first on RU-vid and then watched your video! Thank you for saving me $1200!! Keep up the great work!
Note 10 plus was perfect for 2019 but now the s23 ultra is a real upgrade! Much better video stabilization, photo in low lights, better processor, excellent battery!come on is a huge jump!
New phones will come every week every month every year and they will come with some minor better things if they will not better who will buy but at this time the s22 ultra was the best for upgrading before 2020 models pocket friendly
Hi have had all Notes since No. 4. Except 7 and 22 ultra. Now after last 10+ and 20 ultra the 23 ultra is my main phone. It was definitely worth upgrading.
Had my note 10 plus for about 4 years, fantastic phone...my favourite phone of all time. Then i got an S23 Ultra and went back to the note to see what inwas missing and it felt so slowwww... which is crazy because it's a fast phone. Also loving the S23s Camera. So im happy with my upgrade, if it wasn't cracked to hell i probably would've kept it lol
The Note 10+ is the best phone Samsung ever made. Thin, light, tons of useful tech. The new phones are thick and heavy for no reason. No, the battery capacity isn’t worth it. I have chargers everywhere.
I am not living my NOTE 10 + , people stop wasting your money, upgrading to any new device that comes out there. At the end of the day, all this is just a hype. Talking about smoothness and all. Do you know you can adjust the smoothness on your Npote 10 Plus too and it can feel just like the new device?
I'm still very much in love with my note 10+ and for my needs, like you said, the note 10+ is still kicking it in most aspects! Although the photos on the newer models are sharper, I don't think they are necessarily much better. The biggest differences for me are found at night time photography and video stabilization which is miles better on the newer ones. I pre-ordered the S24 ultra now because the ongoing deals are insane and got it for €930,- for the 512GB version. Didn't realize the S24 models don't have expandable storage either, so might need to get the 1TB one! Thanks for your comparison video, it was very helpful
Returned my s23 Ultra and keep my Note 10 plus. The price of new phones now a days is absolutely ridiculously expensive. Not gonna buy any flagship phone again or phone over $1k. Not worth it.
Good video. I've been tormented about whether to trade in my Note 10 Plus for the s23 ultra. Verizon is giving me a good deal until the 31st of March so I'm trying to make my decision. With my trade in it'll end up costing me $16.11 a month for 3 years for the new phone. It's just tough for me to give up that microSD card. For the most part it's still working just fine... It's a little slow here and there but I'm not sure what the cause of that is... An App or Probably just age (like me) 😉. Thanks for the great video, I'm still tortured Not sure what I'm going to do.
If you are used to a monthly payment, that's a pretty good deal to upgrade, I would think. A lot of those features aren't coming back anytime soon, so might as well take advantage of a good offer.
@@StevealiciousTech I've been finished with my monthly payment since August of last year. Do you think it's worth waiting for the s24 ultra or should I jump in on this s23 ultra deal right now?
Still using my Note 10+ and the hardest thing to do is upgrade because the phone is still so much bang for your buck. One of my biggest hang ups is not having expandable memory on the newer phones which is ridiculous because android phone manufacturers have been taking away features more and more. Samsung is notorious for it because they did it with the Note 5 by taking away expandable memory then brought it back after the negative reception. I'm going to keep this phone for as long as it hangs on.
I would have liked to have seen more comparison in photos. The Note 10+ takes great photos, but I'm planning to go to Italy and Greece soon and I want the best images possible. I will be brining my dslr kit, but phones are always handier than a full-sized camera.
Thanks for the video. I got the note 10+ on release, and still using it to this day. It is not the 5g version, which is a minus, but my connection speed does the work, I havent tried 5g so I don't know if Im missing out. Only reason I'm considering switching is FOMO. Samsung currently offers 400$ for the note 10+ in trade in, and I'm sure next year the offer is dropping. But I guess this phone still has some juice in it.
Battery life between s23u and note 10 + (exynos) is huge, i used to get 2-2.5hrs of sot, while with my new s23u im getting close to 10hrs which is insane😂
Before even watching the video i can tell you i just upgraded from my Note 10+ and coming from only Notes back to Galaxy was strange...the Spen obviously sealed the deal but its def an upgrade. Love this ph! Build quality, the tacktile buttons, the specs and tech is the most addicting samsung product yet 😮😅
@WaLk_412 thanks for the insightfulness..I knew that. I only had note phones for yrs. Technically samsung wants to market it as a Note but it's named as a galaxy. I had samsung galaxies before, went to notes and now back to galaxy.
I have had my note 10+ for 4 plus years and decided to upgrade with reservations, I went with the S23 ultra. I will see if there is a noticeable difference to my liking.
Did you use pro mode for the Note 10 Plus shot below? I wonder if the detail couldn't be improved with manual adjudstments in the foreground, the flooring is very detailed in the S23 Ultra and kind of fuzzy in the Note 10. 4:08 $250 Note 10 Plus (used) 4:29 $1200 S23 Ultra (new) p.s. watching this on my Note 9 512 GB using Dex on a 15.5" OLED display I got for less than $200 (Innocn brand). Five year old phone, amazingly inexpensive external display. No need to spend big money. Samsung is offering $350 for the Note 9 plus an instant $180 off on the S23 Ultra bringing price down to $800 or so. Compelling if I wasn't really really satisfied with my Fold 3 512 GB.
I placed my order for the S23 Ultra 512GB. While I’m waiting, I’ve been trying to justify trading in my Note10+ 256GB. Taking into account the trade-in offer my Canadian provider is giving me, and Samsung Canada’s comparatively better, but in my mind, still undervalued one, it doesn’t make sense. I EXPECT a 3-year newer phone to be much better in ALL aspects, and this new S23U does not disappoint. There is one single reason I grabbed the N10+ when I did; I knew that the ugly camera bumps were coming. Comparing photos taken between these two cameras, yes “obviously” the newer phone seems better than the older one with - which does not have UGLY, massive, protruding bumps. What sort of witchcraft is that with my 3-year-old phone?! I thought Samsung had matured to forge its own path not copying Apple with its camera cutout and rear camera design, but sadly, no. For me, the difference in the photos aren’t by a country mile, and anyway, if I am going on a “serious” (= amateur) shoot, then along comes my Sony A6400. My phone is as fast as the day I bought it. The battery still provides excellent coverage. I will continue to get security updates ‘til almost the end of 2023. So, I have changed my mind. I am not shelling out CAD$1,200+ (including taxes, which is more than I paid outright for my Note!) to trade-in and give up a PERFECTLY GOOD phone, which I’ve really, REALLY liked from Day 1. And oh yeah; I cleaned it and its transparent case and I’m in love again! So, thank you @StevealiciousTech! Heads up for those getting the S23U: get a screen protector! Reports are the Victus2 screen doesn’t break easily, but heck, it scratches like mad! (The N10+ came with a TPU SP; mine is still fully intact after 3+ years.)
Still holding onto mine. Unfortunately I recently shattered the back camera lens and peeled the glass off so now my cameras are exposed, other than that. Looks brand new still. Samsung bring back Aurora Glow!!!
my son has the note 10 plus i bought it brand new from ATT i have the note 20 ultra and there is like very little difference in performance or even the screen i cant tell the difference between the note 10 plus 60 hz and the note 20 ultra 120hz honestly id have to say the note 10 plus if you have one dont even bother upgrading, its still a very future proof solid phone but if you want to upgrade go for it
Just bought a new back and front glass for my note 10+, cant wait to refurbish it! I do enjoy filming elevators for a different youtube channel in my spare time, and the note 10+ definetly shows a lot of noise in the recordings. But its not that big of a deal
If you can get expandable storage in the A53 5G and the new A54, then not getting it in the professional S23 Ultra is mind-boggling and beyond any reason.
Lol funny thing is. I just made the upgrade from Note 10 plus. 😆. No regrets so far. Got the upgraded 500 GB S23 Ultra. not worried about anything. Battery life is crazy good especially you bring some of the overpowered settings down. I'm planning keeping this phone for long time also. Besides I love the flatter screen. Plus my phone screen was cracked so 🤷🏽♂️
Man they need to give the Legendary Note 10 plus One UI 5.1 update or fixing the theme park quick panel bug where all the notification icons being the same color. It's almost a perfect device.
Sticking with my note 10 + for now. It would have to be a great deal to trade in my 10+. Battery ok. I take a zerolemon case when im away from a power source.
Long time note user here. Ive had the note 5, 8, the regular 10 and note 20 ultra. Ive owned the 10 the longest, and while it was really incremental compared to the 8, I loved and would have kept for as long as possible if I wasn't surprised with a N20U. It was the only phone I bought twice. Switched to the s23 ultra, and so far so good.The most noticeable differences come from camera, battery and battery life
Had the s10 plus and as soon as I seen the note 10 plus I sold my s10 plus and got this beast and kept it for a while it was a fantastic phone probably still decent till this day I think when the s10 note 10 series come out Samsung was on they game
Still have my Note 10 Plus...Works flawlessly. 🤗💯💖 I'd consider buying the S23 Ultra when the price drops significantly after the updates for the N10+ stop. 😏
Thanks.. Great advice.. Was on the cusp because the trade for the note 10+ is very good on the Samsung site. I have an unlocked version. Really appreciate you being straight with us. A lot of Amazon affiliates are not
Eh, being upfront is more important than getting 3 dollars or whatever it would be haha. When an upgrade is worth it, I will be sure to be excited about it.
Here we are, 9 months later (Nov. 23'). Samsung has decided to drop the support fir the Note 10+. At the same time WhatsApp, now owned by Meta, decided that their application will no longer be supported on Android's versions 5.0 & older. Completely killing my WhatsApp usage on my Note 10+ running 4.1. I understand that technology moves on but this phone is barely 4 years old.
Which is living proof that all those samsung phones are merely REPEATS of this great Note 10+.😂😂😂 the s22 ultra is the one to get now..., lower price & repeated upgrade from the note 10+👍🏾
I've bought refurbished note 10+ ever since I had my first one. It's the best deal you can get on a good phone. I'm only here because I was recently offered a free S23 standard 128 GB and thought it might be worth the switch for free.
Still on my note 10+ multi window videos and all. Removable storage still a must. Waiting for the euro laws for removable battery and storage to kick in to see what the industry does.
So I've been thinking, with the $1000 trade in att is offering for my 10 plus should I upgrade now to the S23 ultra for super cheap or wait till next year to see if there are bigger improvements on the s24 ultra (or hopefully they bring the note back=)) and pay more? I doubt they'll be offering me $1000 for the note a year from now but I'm willing to pay more if there are major improvements in next years model.
I've heard At&t is gonna stop with the awesome trade-in next year. Also why wait if your wanting or in need of an upgrade? With that attitude you'll miss out & be waiting forever just saying....
I have a note 9... I own a camera as a professional photographer.. I hardly take photos of myself with my phone. Only thing i do make calls and social media... the note 9 serves me well...
The Note 10 + is the first phone I ever owned that was flawless through the 5 years I owned it. I still own it and will never trade it in or sell it, it's a true keeper and was well ahead of competition at the time. It was and still is the best phone I have ever used!
Had i not lost my Note 10+ by accident two years ago, id still be using it today. Losing that phone made me quit chewing tobacco all together, and a few months of using iphone, i bought s23 ultra just because i couldn't find a note 10 on sale.
I love my Note10+ the camera is incredible, the battery life is still fantastic... I just FINALLY ran out of room a week ago, for the first time since getting the phone and I take pictures and videos every day and nevver delete things. I have had the same chrome tabs (23 of them) open since I got the phone, they have never been lost/closed. I'm NOT a fan of the curved screen stuff, but there was no other option with the same specs at the time. I have zero complains for the phone and jusssst don't see a reason to upgrade, if it was free, sure, otherwise.. wouldn't even spend $50 to upgrade to a new one.
Have tried to mentally justify ditching my Note 10+ 5G in favor of the S23 Ultra. I just couldn't. I like that Samsung kept the S-Pen as I use it every single day of the week and freaked out when I lost the original S-Pen but quickly got a replacement. As for smartphone cameras.....I think they are overrated and I think that most people don't buy their smartphones because of the camera(s). A few days ago an adult I was talking to at my son's baseball practice indicated he was super excited he was going to get a new iPhone 15. I said cool......then showed him my Note 10 and he was surprised how lite and thin the Note 10 is......even with the case I have which is low profile. I love the Note 10+ and rue the day when I'll have to replace it.
I’m interested in purchasing N10 P unlocked. Can you provide a solid website to purchase? Can you explain how it works if you have a locked device with carrier. Can SIM card be removed in kivked😢device and placed in unlocked device? Trying to fully understand. Thanks
Best advice and most logical ... much needed review. NOTE 10+ has been the greatest phone I have ever owned after we switched from iPhone 8 to this device in 2019 winter. Best decision ever made! Best purchase! 4 years on this Note 10+ we're a breeze and never it fail to impress us. The memory slot is a blessing. I am a photographer and do about 20000 pics a year around the world. Insert a Sim... take pics.. remove and copy on computer! Boom. That easy! The S23 ultra just can't do that. While (as a photographer) I wish to upgrade, the upgrade including current offer with a trade will cost 817 dollars precisely for a 512GB (and a cover) OR $698 for a 256GB with a cover. Is that money worth spending? Thats my debate these days! Any help or advice from the OP or readers would be appreciated!
I agree, but the Problem is, there are no more Updates anymore especially no Security Updates. Otherwise i also Would Keep my nice Note 10 plus. The only thing i would be missing a little bit is the higher Refresh Rate
I still use my note 10 plus, but I bought recently a S21. I put it in my pocket during the day take some pictures. And arriving at home I use my note 10 plus for RU-vid and movies. The pictures on the S21 are ways better than the note 10 pro ! And the qualities of video on RU-vid on the S21 are a little better than on note 10 pro.
@@StevealiciousTech I made a couple of replies as to why the 10+ is no longer supported by Samsung and why WhatsApp is no longer supported and both replies although posted are now gone...
I still see them but either way you're incorrect. You're confusing OneUI versions with Android versions. The Note10 runs Android 12, which will be fine.
I just spent £299 getting the screen replaced as ive used it for work for the last 2 years and had it on most of the day running an app for work and it had screen burn. But its such a good phone that i thought it was worth spending the money on. Also got a free battery fitted in with the cost. Done by samsung. Thry also replace the chassis so its like brand new. 12gb ram 512 and expanable storage. What more could you need?
I know both mobiles have same screen size 6.8 In your opinion, do you feel the screen size looks the same has note 10 plus or is Ultra 23 screen looks bigger. Thanks
Definitely worth it because Samsung showed its boldness and refinement once again. Both phones are Samsung's all-in flagships of their time but the Note doesn't have Android updates anymore. Meanwhile all the other flagships phones released _in-between_ have minimal or even no performance upgrades (looking at you, Snapdragon 888, 8 Gen 1 and all your Exynos counterparts). Imo the S23U is the iphone XS of the S lineup-so "boringly refined" it'll age more like fine wine than iphone XS will.
is it ok to use smartphone after the company ended the security update, is it secure? .. for long period I want to purchase note 20 ultra or note 10 plus
I have TWO N10+ (my first one got SEVERELY damaged but no cracked screen & everything still works except the charging, I got LUCKY). I bought the S21 ultra and after a few months i ended up selling it (lost a couple hundy on that btw) just so that i could buy another N10+ and I have no regrets about it, except for buying the S21U in the first place lol. I plan to upgrade to the latest galaxy whenever Samsung brings back the expandable storage AND as long as it still has the curved screen. And if my good N10+ breaks I'll just replace parts or replace completely if I have to, with yet another N10+. Now, Eventually the N10+ will become harder to find. If Samsung continues to follow down the Apple path, I'm sure by this time another company will see the market/demand for N10+ and will make something similar enough to make the switch and supply that demand (and with all the latest goodies inside, of course). The severe damage on my first N10+: the back glass shattered, the phone is bent backwards slightly, and the temp sensor kicked the bucket (so it will hold/keep the current battery % if you put it on a charger, but it won't increase the % of charge because the phone reads -4°F even though its at room temperatures) so it was stuck at 0-1 percent. i got around this by removing the battery and sticking alligator clips directly on the battery terminals (with a universal battery charger) and charging it to 70%. Now i use it as a "at home" phone so I can cut back on wearing out my screen and battery etc on my newer N10+.
I upgraded note 10plus to s23 ultra and yes, the difference is notable. This year we have the snapdragon, pound for pound the best rival to the iPhone camera. The fastest storage ever...buttery smooth animation... 👌 top.
still got note 10 plus,note20u and now s23u. the only reason i upgraded from note10plus to note20u was because i got exynos intl version that doesnt support all USA 4g bands. it only gave me 10 to 12mbps and weak spotty signal like 1 to 2 signal or bar all the time and it drains battery fast. after using note20u 5g i can never go back to 4g phone as main esp if im outdoors. having 5g is really great and convenient. my note20u has been stable since january update after that i exp it froze 1 time. samsung really trying to make note20u users upgrade by including bugs and glitches😂😂😂
It is crazy that today these manufacturers are actually giving their consumers less specs for more money. Samsung took away expandable storage and reduced the RAM and actually charged people more. 🤣 AND PEOPLE STILL BOUGHT IT! Just goes to show how gullible many consumers are.
