Anyone regret the size you bought?

The only complaint I have is the tempered glass available for the phone seems to leave a circle on the screen for the thumb print scanner. It is clearly visible, the sales rep suggested a liquid glass to prevent the circle from showing. He stated that the tempered glass is slightly thinner where the thumb print scanner so it registers thumb prints better.

The camera is great with having various focus points, and the ability to take a photo away from my phone with the s-pen is an awesome feature. However I feel like the quality of the photo is still slightly better on an iphone. And I am not an apple fan boy by any means, have never owned one actually.

The Samsung Backup Cloud is awesome. For anyone who has another samsung phone that plans on getting or considering the note 10, it is a very seamless transition. I went from a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge to a Note 10 + and all of my settings and programs were downloaded and updated right after I went thru the initial setup. However some of those apps did end up becoming the Tablet version of the app, and I did have issues with some file conversions. This was a very small group of applications though.
 
I thought the 10 plus was going to be too big but no regret here glad I didn't get the smaller 10.
 
No regrets whatsoever! Note 10+ unlocked. Have had almost every note since Note2. Love this one the most...

I'm thinking about getting the Note 10+ unlocked with the deal from Samsung. Should I get the unlocked or the T-mobile branded one. I really want the white and it isn't offered from T-mobile. What are the benefits / disadvantages of getting the unlocked version?
 
I regret pre-ordering at all. Supposed the be "the first to get it" when you pre-order according to all the marketing hype. Still waiting on my black 10 non-plus from samsung. Could have avoided all the hassle, picking up from across the city at a depot etc and had it a week sooner just waking into best buy. I will never pre-order again, that's for sure.

Had the same exact experience with Samsung Dubai. I pre-ordered the S10 when it was launched in order to be the first to get it. Then the device launched everywhere and I didn't get mine until after 2 weeks of its official launch and it wrecked my nerves as I was calling Samsung thrice daily every day and no one had a clue what's the status of my phone. Never again am I pre-ordering a phone so this time with the Note 10, I didn't pre-order and guess what, I bought it on day one of its launch and still got the free Galaxy Earbuds. So much for giving a company your hard earned cash ahead of time.
 
The size of the 10+ is excellent IMO. What I have a problem with is the no bezels design which makes the phone more difficult to hold without touching something on the screen. I'll probably be returning it this weekend.....I set it up just like my Max and battery life is very disappointing. I've been tweeking settings and apps but don't think it will make much of a difference. Back to the Max....which BTW does bezels and phone handling right.
 
Note 10 plus aura glow here and no regrets. I love the phone camera, speed and screen are awesome in my book. I wanted the bigger phone as I've always like bigger phones. Cheers folks!
 
I haven't seen a it like this in a while. I preordered thru Verizon the 1st day they delivered it the day before it came out😬 aura white
 
Yes and no.

I went plus and it is big but on the other hand if I went non-plus I’d have regretted the compromises.

So overall no I guess I don’t.
 
Coming from a Note 9 I feel this has been just an incremental upgrade. Not sure if I should have just waited for the s11 or Note 11. Fingerprint reader is a bit slow compared to the Note 9. Speed of the phone seems about the same. I do like the wide angle camera option and improved selfies. The bigger screen is nice too. One gripe would be the touch screen not responding sometimes. Even after turning up the touch sensitivity. Maybe this will improve as they optimize the phone with updates. Other then that it's been great.

For using on T-Mobile you should be good to go on the unlocked model. Only thing is software updates will be later than the carrier model if that's something you care otherwise you are good to go in terms of all TMobile carrier features working on the unlocked model.

Very strange with accidental touches. Ive had a note 9 and now a Note 10 Plus with no issues at all with accidental touches. Battery life has been outstanding with 1 to 1.5 days of moderate to heavy use. Somethings not right if your getting bad battery life. Are you using the battery optimized settings. Have you dedicated which apps you want to sleep while not in use. in addition try wiping the system cache partition.

Wiped cache partition yesterday. I've got 4 widgets running....Weather Underground, Yahoo Sports, groceries widget, and Samsung steps widget. My email is set to fetch rather than push. I've turned on all the optimizations settings. Right now my battery is in the 50s with screen time of 90 minutes. With my old Max I'd go to bed with my battery in the 50s and my screen time is near 4 hours. This performance is a bit worse than my old Sammy 8 plus. In any case I've got the AT&T next plan and I'm wondering how a return will affect that when I ask for the Max back.
 
I'm too excited now for mine to ship. will be hard sleeping. I'm like a kid at Christmas during new phone time
