I'm just wondering when people got their new s10 e ... What were the essential features / settings you changed on it? For me, I would normally get nova launcher but the icons and themes on Samsung is beautiful so I don't need it anymore.

I disabled some Samsung / apps I dont use or delete them.

I downloaded the g board app I hate all other keyboards.

Switched the Samsung internet to the chrome.

I use Zedge app to get any new ringtones.

Disable Google back up / Samsung back up.

I'm still on the hunt for any more useful settings I can change or do. What are yours ?

If I got a 10e (I didn't, but I run all my phones the same way), I'd do what you did with the following changes:

SwiftKey instead of Gboard, Firefox instead of Chrome, I use Google sync.

And I use Nova Launcher instead of the stock UI. (Also a few other things, like TWRP and rooting.)

Surprisingly, I was a gboard faithful so I changed that to the Samsung keyboard because that works better with dark mode.

I haven't had to change much, which was a surprise to me.

Nova launcher, Gboard, AOD off (double tap to wake), bixby disabled (Nova Google companion), single tap bixby button to open camera.

What a great thread idea! Thank you for posting!

I almost always download Zedge on all of my new phones. And use Gboard.
