It came as no surprise that the Galaxy Note 10 was highly anticipated and that it landed Thursday, August 8,2019.Those facts are part of history now.
What transpired for this tech reviewer was unexpected – a mixture of disappointment, excitement and a feeling of being resigned to what it is. The Note series was never supposed to replace the S series in any way, but rather compliment and target a different market segment altogether. It was never supposed to be a camera centric phone or be a powerful gaming platform. The Note series is targeted at big screen users who want to have a phablet and use a stylus to take notes. But it’s so much more than that now.
So talking technical…here are the Note 10 and Note 10+ specs…yes, there’s a PLUS version of a phablet.
