came with a screen protector preinstalled and a clear case.

 

 

 

 

I've got a Whitestone Dome Glass screen protector in transit for the 10+, bought from Amazon. I'll see how the preinstalled screen protector feels, touch wise, before replacing it with the Whitestone Dome.

Is the ONLY difference between a Note 10+ 256 and 512 the storage capacity? Same everything else? I don't use my 128GB so 256GB Seems like plenty if I was to take up the student version.

Theoretical question, what is the difference between 256/512 worth in the second hand market? $100?

The 512Gb will worth about $100-150 more, but most user won't use all 512Gb so they mostly looking for the 256Gb as it is cheaper.

I suspect they set it to 1080p out of the box as most people won't notice the difference, but it will give a little extra bump to battery life and perceived UI fluidity. I actually set mine to 1080p as a test for a week........ two months ago and then forgot all about it. It does make a small difference to the UI animation speeds, can't say I have objectively tested battery life though.

 

Also, since 5g requires a separate modem currently (Samsung's 5100 modem, Qualcomm's X55), only specially designated 5g devices are going to have the necessary bits. Interesting read here on the S10+ 5g, it states that the RF chip is only capable of sub-6GHz networks part of 5g, not mmWave, even though the modem supports both. And it uses 2 RF chips instead of 1. Will be interesting to see a tear-down of the Note 10+ 5g to see if it is the same design.

What is everyone's status saying for those who ordered with Noel Leeming? Mine still says awaiting stock.

@mahdibassam if you cancel and re-order with the code above, you could get $399 worth of headphones on top of those rewards.

My Note 10+ arrived this morning.

 

Is anyone else having trouble logging into their Samsung account?  I can't sign in from the phone on 4G or Wi-Fi and if I go to the account page on my browser on my Surface it doesn't load - that's at work, and if I remote to my home server and try there it won't load on my home internet either.
