I preordered my Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus and Im upgrading from my T-Mobile S10 plus to a Note 10 plus. So i was at best buy and i put the 2 next to each other and i have to say the note 10 plus screen is bigger and i love that there is only one front facing camera and its in the center instead of having the 2 in the upper right corner on my phone. Also the battery is a lil better and faster charging on the note 10 plus. I miss having the pen since i use to have a note 7 few years ago only down side about the pen is i wish it wasn't blue and matched the color of the phone i got. I went with Aura Glow i just think it was the most nicest color there i just like how its chrome and has that rainbow effect in it. No more headphone jack hole or power button on the right side but thats fine the phone note 10 plus looks much cleaner that way. Anybody else here upgrading from a s10+ to note 10+? if so let us know what are your thoughts and why.
 
Same 'jump' here (although every time I see the base Note I wish it came with the same features as the plus and it would have been just the smaller body... just so much more manageable!). Alas, sticking with the Note 10+. My reasoning? I'm on JUMP! On Demand... so why not! I'm paying the same for either phone anyway (per month), might as well get the latest and greatest and take advantage of the pre-order bonuses and phone freebies :D

You can sell your S10+ for at least 550 and buy a note 9 or pixel 3 for around 350 to 400 and use that as trade in. Put at least 150 bucks in your pocket or cool accessories for the N10 :)
 
I'm doing the same. I've had every Note since the Note 3 BUT the 8 and 9 actually gave me trouble! My Note 8 bricked while I was at work on a SUN evening which sucked big time. SO that MON I got the S8+ for a few weeks until the Note 9 came out. ( I pass my phones to my son so it works out lol) Well I went thru 2 Note 9s. The first one kept getting extremely hot and the 2nd one started having glitches and color bands across the top of the screen. That's how I ended up with the S10+. I LOVE the Note line and I'm praying this 10+ does me right. So far the Note 7 was my VERY fav and I was so sad when I had to turn that back in. I look forward to using the S Pen, the beautiful Aura Glow and all the screen real estate!!!!
 
I always switch from s to note and back. This time I can't wait because my s10+ is by far the worst Samsung I've ever owned and I had 3 note 7s.

What issues have you seen with the S10+? I have one since release love the phone ...but switching to Note 10+ Bc I miss the Note series ...
 
I'm doing it cause I can't live without the S Pen. Had Notes 1 through 9 and every time I think I don't need the S Pen, I start looking for it.

Proximity sensor and fps also my reception is horrible compared to other phones in my house. My father in law has a galaxy j7 and it gets better signal than my $1000 flagship. I'll just be happy to give this POS back to TMobile.

I have a Pixel 3 XL, S10+ and now about to get the Note 10+. I switch quite often.

The signal on the Note 10+ is my biggest concern. I had a terrible time with signal and bluetooth on the S10+. I went through 3 of them before finally giving up on the glass backed version and getting the ceramic S10+ (512). The ceramic version is the best phone I have had for both bluetooth and signal strength. It is amazing how much better it is over the glass version. I am concerned about the Note 10+ having the same issues as the glass S10+ since it has the glass back. Hopefully Samsung will have better antennas and design. I will keep my S10+ just in case and sell it if the Note 10+ is good. If not, I will return the Note 10+.
 
I'm going from S10+ to Note 10+, I like the S10+ but like most I miss the Spen. I had a Note 4 then Note 7 then Note 8, skipped the Note 9 waited for S10+ but need my pen back!

I find even without any screen protector the in-display fingerprint sensor pretty brutal even after resetting a few times, not sure that will have changed but one can hope lol and lately when I open my Camera it gives me a camera fail error, I need to close it then I need to reopen :S
 
I feel my signal is worse on the S10+. I have the ceramic. I thought signal was suppose to be worse on ceramic, but I could have mixed it up with glass. I'm crossing my fingers the note 10+ will be better.
 
I have no issues on my S10+ FPS but I've seen a few videos that have the Note as better recognition for our prints... Let's see... I'm excited for full hands on

LOL... I did this a few weeks ago... got $650 for my S10+ and Note 9 for $400.
 
I did notice the S10+ didn't get the great 4gG LTE speeds of my other phones.

I loved the Note 7 while I had it - I waited until they were going to cut me off to return it.

I have the S10+ plus but traded my Note 9 for the 600 beans.
 
I'm pretty sure that the trade off will be worth it(for me at least). Only because I've gotten used to using the S Pen.
 
Same jump I'm making. I need the faster charging. Spen is just a bonus. Might keep this until the Note 11.
