Ah yes, the s10 series. The last great Samsung lineup. Charger in the box, glass rear housing, mst, 1440p screen for s10/s10+, headphone jack, expandable storage. Those were simpler times.
Glass rear housing is a negative though. It is heavier, and it breaks. Plastic is the way. Or why don't they use carbon fibre or something? Now that would be nice.
The S series still remain as the most refined and complete Android experience out there though. I like the new material on the S21, the back is like a combination of polycarbonate and laminated glass. It has the heft of laminated glass but has the durability of polycarbonate. It is one of the best back materials out there.
Bought mine used a few days ago, I got extremely lucky with mine as it was advertised as a normal UK model with exynos etc but it's a HK model with Snapdragon 855...! Very happy with it so far, battery life easily lasts a day compared to the exynos version, its got better heat management and its very fast.
I have been using the S10e for 2 years and it'sfor me the perfectcompact phone ! got the S21 for a good price after signing up a new contract , after less than a day using theS21 I went back to my favourite s10e!
Using mine since 3 weeks it's awesome ! Was aiming for a pixel 5 but this phone is more powerful. I do have SD 855 258/8go version for 300€ brand new love it.
Bought mine at the end of December, new, in the box for $300. Love everything about it coming from a S7. Super great battery life, fast and I can't live without my micro SD card.
I bought s21 last week to upgrade from my 2 years old s10e. Couple of days later I returned my s21 and decided to keep the s10e for a bit longer. This phone might not be as fast but is still holding on pretty damn well. My only worry is that it will be difficult to find another phone like this in the future, compact but powerful.
i've been using s10e for 2 years, and i loveeee it. my hand is so small and this phone fit enough in my hand. small and useful, the updates is great too. i love the new feature
Bought today for 540€ for the Prism White EU Version, don't regret it at all! We'll see if the android brands will understand how many people don't want the ridicoulously huge phones! Iphone 12 Mini and Samsung S10e recently are emphasizing as Bestsellers ;)
Biggest reason for me? The build quality is MUCH more premium than the S21 with that reflective glass back over that cheap, hollow feeling/looking matte plastic back. The matte plastic actually shows *more* fingerprints than the reflective Prism White glass of the S10 series.
I've been using mine for a while now. I got it for the solid fingerprint scanner and compact design. I used to upgrade my phones about once every other year. But quite frankley, I just haven't had much of a reason to upgrade yet.
I'm watching this on my s10e its a great phone have small hands so its good to hold one handed and fits in my pocket this phone is fast and amazing what a phone
Bought S10e on Amazon renewed $400 Dec. 2020, it was perfect and appeared brand new! 5.8" AMOLED screen with fingerprint scanner and SD micro card slot(added 512gb) made this a must have for me! After 8 iphones...Samsung comes along and gives me my dream phone!
@@Matanumi Well, it's even harder to find the Snapdragon variant (btw the better version!) here in Europe. For example: Amazon in Europe does NOT list the Snapdragon version, while Amazon in the US actually DOES offer the Exynos version!
The side mounted fingerprint sensor is faster than the under the display finger print sensor also more accurate. Also the SD card slot and headphone jack are 2 things that aren’t on even this year’s flagships.
I bought mine in 2019 and still works like brandnew until today. Also, thanks to samsung they commit on 3 yrs software update. looking forward for the next update android 12.
@@AmirChemE no you can still use it, in fact the updates this year will still be good, it's just after this year you won't be getting the newest updates like the newest Samsung. The phone will use be perfect to use, you just won't be getting the up to date updates
@@Slaterinshades So that means no new security features as well, which makes the S10e a lot more vulnerable to attacks in the long run. Which makes the phone very unsafe to use because it is not up to date?
Trying to upgrade from my S7, was looking at the S21 but it feels like I'm be losing as many features as I'm adding. No headphone jack, No Sd card, No charger, No Headphones included... Samsung should be ashamed I'm getting the S10e
Best value to spec ratio phone in 2021. You can pick one up on ebay 9.5 or better - SD855, 8GB, 256GB for $200-$300 (including delivery). Its my favorite phone by far. Hope this helps.
You mentioned an iphone 12 mini the whole top of the phone is a notch and face id is a pain! It doesn't have a fingerprint scanner or headphone jack! And the 256gb model which is not enough storage for me cost almost a thousand dollars! I've given up on apple!
I paid $219 to Amazon renewed and am waiting arrival. Also bought a clear TPU ring case and 512gb SD card. Replacing a LG G7 Fit, battery popped the back off. I carry my phone in my front pocket and am rarely away from a charger. Is the S10e the best compact phone I could have bought ?
i have had it for 1.5-2 years now, unfortunately mine is the non-snapdragon version. i love the size, headphone jacke, wide angle lens etc, however, recently the battery hast just been so awful to a point where the phone is not even usable on a daily basis. my week average for battery is 213% and i don't even use it that much, the camera has gotten super laggy and the low light videos have been worse than the ones from my 6 year old phone i used before. So I'm kinda disappointed that the phone is not as great as I thought. I still think that it's an amazing budget phone, especially if you can get the snapdragon phone.
im planning to buy this phone, but since in my country it only comes with exynos version, it is worth it for 2021 ?, please im new on samsung phone especially with exynos proc
@@pinkiepie1656 i read on samsung community it has 3-4 hours different on battery life and when you gaming for too long it will start to throttle, thats my consider not to buy exy version
My S8+ is dying so i skipped Verizon who were charging $500 for used ones and all sold out and got one via another site for $299 in pristine shape. Looking forward to it.
You can find them on Amazon Renewed for about $190, they're an absolute steal atm. If anyone you know is in need of a new device, point them to this one! I've had mine since it released. I love it. (Although it's not my main driver, I'll never let it go)
My only complaint is the battery size. Arguably, when this came out, you'd expect the s10e would beat iPhone XR's battery. But instead, iPhone XR won that area. I am still keeping this phone as it can go up to 512 GBs micro SD expanded. Plus, its highly convenient to use as a daily driver, upload posts and more. All in all, since theres one more year of support, i am still going to use it as an mp3 / emulator.
I’m stuck between this and the s9 main reason I don’t wanna go for the s9 is I’m having a hard time finding one that’s not broken and doesn’t have burn in
People are still asking me what phone I'm using. Samsung doing Samsung things. They under-promoted a $750 compact flagship. I own 3 of them. 2 on 2 phone lines [1 for work/1 for play] and a backup waiting in the box. Considering another backup, because I don't see Samsung ever again doing an equivalent to the glorious S10e.
Can someone please help me what will be a new upgrade to this phone because even though I love this phone I am now embarrassed by it because it's old. I'm thinking a a52 or samsung s20 or s21 I don't know which is better for a woman that loves takin pics on snapchat help me plz!!
Just purchased brand new $320. SD855 is still plenty fast. Love the compact size. Speaker is better than expected. I get around 5hrs SOT daily. Great phone.
Does anybody know if the s10e is 5g compatible? Mine is not working on my ATT service. What puzzles me is my wife's s9 is compatible and working. Thoughs anyone?

Bought it a month ago. Exynos 9820 Tough, compact one-handed flagship with so many features that new phones don't have. Battery is small, but for me it lasts 2-3 days or more, or 6 hours of prolonged gaming in F1

How does it hold up with it's software and security? That's my main concern when considering an older phone
3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security updates. As the phone is 2 years old, itll get 1 year of OS updates and 2 years of security updates.
