Am I understanding this correctly?

I have a S10+ and it is a great phone. However, I recently downgraded to the S10 because I grew tired of the larger S10+.

I haven't had a Note in forever because they were just too big for me. When I saw the Note 10 I knew that I wanted it because the size is pretty much the same as the S10 and I get a S-Pen.

I personally see absolutely nothing wrong with the 1080p screen and the 4th camera is of no real interest to me. Neither is the sd-card slot as 256gb is more than enough for my needs.

There is nothing the Note 10+ has that I feel I'm missing out on with the Note 10. I think the Note 10 is for people who want a Note without having the large size that goes with it. I for one can't wait for my baby Note to arrive and am excited to try the Note again after being away for a long time.
 
If the Note10 had 12GB of RAM and the 1440 screen, like the 10+. I might have gotten it.

Sometimes I like having big phones like the Note 9 and 1+7 Pro and other times I miss having a small phone like my old Pixel 3 or S10. lol

I can’t see the difference between a phone having 8GB or 12GB of RAM. Both the Note 10 and 10+ have extremely fast performance and can take on literally anything you throw at them.
 
I am coming from S8+ and I love it and its size. So the note 10+ isn't all that much bigger. Bigger display for sure.
I'm not sure why I chose the 256, I don't think I need thst much space , lol.

But hey, go big or go home, I guess. Lol
My s8+ is 6.28 x 2.89 x .319
