More Apple Like. Still love Samsung...for now.

Most of the USB buds I have seen don't have noise cancelling, however it would be somewhat beneficial if they had a battery built in for the noise cancelling assuming they have high output.

The whole point is that with USB, the phone can provide the power for the noise cancelling. No batteries needed.

Because there is honestly not a reason to be mad that the 3.5 mm jack is going away. Technology changes and evolves all the time. One shouldn't have believed that the 3.5 mm would last forever. Thankfully we have options whether practical or not.

If Note was more like crapple, Samsung would have charged for the S-pen. lol

I would say Google Pixel is trying to copy crapple!! Which is why, I think I will stick with my 1+7 Pro. Until maybe S11 or next 1+7.

This is only a good thing. With samsung and Microsoft working together we will have an integrated platform like apple making life easier .

They said they got rid of the headphone jack to gain extra battery space. I have no reason to doubt that claim right now.

.....other than the specs that state a smaller battery than the N9

.....other than the specs that state a smaller battery than the N9

..which one would reasonably assume would be even smaller if they did have the 3.5mm headphone jack.

That's why I think they should've called them the Note 10e and Note 10. I don't think people would be complaining quite as much if the smaller Note had the e moniker like the S series. The 10+ battery is actually bigger than the Note 9

You are funny.
Samsung isn't the first after Apple to get rid of the headphone jack. Other manufacturer's have.
I think they see that people don't really need the headphone jack with Android audio and Bluetooth devices easily and readily available. I even found a bluetooth Aux adaptor at Walmart for $20. Bluetooth headphones can last 10 hours and charge quickly, and found for around $20 at Walmart with decent sound. I'm not talking about those who really want excellent audio, just regular everyday people who just want decent sound. Better earpieces are available if they want those as well.

IF and only if you really need the headphone jack because no other options work for you, then yes, passing on a phone without one will be a no brainer, but finding a decent one may be a bit hard. Don't even think of getting a Note 10, no matter the trade in and bonus'. Show your contempt for that by not getting one. And let Samsung know why.

Previously it was the S series like the Notes and now it's the Notes like the S series. I think they really wanted to get them all the same, maybe on a different cycle so they always have a new phone out. When someone comes to a phone store, they may want to see the newest phones. Samsung will always have a "best" phone available within 6 months of release. One that can compete with the iPhones and every other major phone out there.

That said, I'm tempted to get one now, but Tmobile has a big down payment for the new more expensive phones for my plan. Last year I waited and after a few weeks, it went down in price and no down payment. Maybe I'll just pop on over to one of the many Tmobile stores on release date just to look...

not everyone has Android Auto though

Note 10+ believe same battery as s10+ 5G

Speaking of Apple, I wonder if the Note 10+ will take over the main sim that is currently in my XS Max?

Why is there so much focus on the headphone jack.


I made other points too. lol

This isn't the first time I ranted about the Note series, it really is becoming more like the "S." I get it, DON'T PUT ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET. It's a business decision.

Am I wrong how before (going back years), it offered more and had better features and specs. Not just an S series with a Pen.

Forget the headphone jack. You're telling me Samsung couldn't upgrade the Note's display and give us 90hz?!?!

Hence the Apple comparison.


I already put money down on my 256GB/12GB Aura Glow.

I'm not upset just disappointed.

I just think the Apple comparison is a bit much. Even without the screen the 90hz screen the note does provide more. Every year the S series gets a memory bump so does the note to even more and the camera editions are a nice touch. The truth is technology has hit a plateu and things just aren't advancing as fast as they use to not to mention every 6 months how Samsung likes to spread there launches.

90% of all of these devices are the same, you are cherry picking the specs. The nite 10+ has things that make it different from the other phones on the market.... Look for the one that has the differences you want, and that's your device.

I like the camera set up, large screen and spen. For me that is enough to make me chose a note over anything else. Even though other phones are really close.... I found the things important to me and I chose my device

To bring this back to the audio jack... With a single, which is no different than just having a jack, you still have all the features you want from a 50 year old interface technology.

P30 Pro: 60hz 6.47 inch FHD OLED display = Nobody complains

OnePlus 6T/7: 60hz 6.4 inch FHD AMOLED display = Nobody complains

Note 10: 60hz 6.3 inch FHD sAMOLED display = Literally everyone complains


Anyone else notice something? I’ll leave it to you guys to figure it out XD

 

[debdroid1a]

Sorry my post was so long. Typed on a computer.

I don't have android auto either. As I said, I bought a cheap $20 aux bluetooth device to put into my aux port in my car.

Nothing to complain about the Huawei, until we see what the Mate 30 Pro which is basically their Note line.

Same with OnePlus 7. First time they released two phones. Again, let’s see what we get with the 7T Pro.

That’s my point XD. The displays on the P30 Pro and OnePlus 7 are great. The Note 10 has practically the same display type (slightly better because it’s Samsung’s AMOLED), the same resolution but is 0.1 inch smaller, making it slightly sharper.

I can’t see the reason why many are criticising the Note 10’s display and saying it’s ‘trash’ when it is exactly the same if not better than the P30 Pro’s and OP 7’s

The IPhone XR is a different phone than the XS. The Notes are are principally the same phone just different sizes. The XR is an LCD while the XS is OLED. And while the XR has better battery life it is thicker and widely considered a less desirable phone. I bump back and forth between platforms (I have a Max right now) and I don’t see why this argument continues....that the Samsungs try to be more iPhone-like. I’m probably going to buy the Note 10 plus and not because it’s copying IPhone.

The iPhone XR is Apple's biggest seller or did you miss that memo? iOS 13 is giving the XR haptic touch which will be replacing 3D touch on the XS and XS Max

The XR was Apple’s biggest seller mainly because of its price and performance. However, it compromised on design (thicker bezels and thicker dimensions), display (sub 1080p LCD) and camera (no telephoto lens).

The XR is the best-value (and a good) iPhone but makes too many compromises to be value-for-money when compared to an Android phone at a similar/same price. At $750 it really should have a FHD OLED display and dual cameras. The S10e is cheaper and has both...not to mention a lot of other features.
