The Note 10 was the easy choice over the Note 10 Ogre for me. The full-time one-handability and aesthetics of the Note 10's size greatly outweigh a RAM jump that I won't even notice. Not worth the inelegant clunkiness. Don't want to have to pull out a tablet to make a phone call or check Twitter. I like the phone to turn heads, but only for the right reasons.

Surprisingly, several reviewers seem to agree this time around... The Verge (who I usually don't rate very much) in their review, Joshua Vergara, etc. all prefer the Note 10 over the Plus. The spec sheet-obsessed still prefer the Plus, however.

Clearly kidding with "Ogre," before anyone gets offended. If you like phones that size, by all means, do you.

I feel like you picked the one good reason to get a Note 10. It's only $100 less than the Note 10+ and the drawbacks are significant: only a 1080p screen, no SD card, less RAM. Paying $100 less for this device is like buying a run of the mill car when you could get a crazy sports car for $1000 more.

But if you don't like the size, then yeah that's a great reason to get the base Note 10. Personally I dream of a phone that requires its own backpack. But hey, to each his own!

Cheers to the Note 10 Ogre! :D

I feel ya. I've got big hands so big phones are no problem for me.

Has to 10+ for me need SD slot

Likewise, since I prefer to keep all photos and videos on my phone. It's not so much a privacy concern (heck, I share most of them on Instagram anyway), but it's great to be able to call up media without relying on the quality of your Internet connection. I was recently in downtown Denver and the LTE was awful. Being able to display photos and videos locally, without having to rely on the cell network, was pretty great.

I agree I keep music, pictures and videos all on my 256 card. Large collection of music.
