SAMSUNG
Galaxy 5G with all specifications and price
Samsung has taken the wraps off its first 5G-enabled smartphone, known as the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G. The all-new handset was announced alongside the Galaxy S10e, S10 and S10 Plus during the latest Galaxy Unpacked events, held simultaneously in San Francisco and London.
Despite what the name might suggest, the new handset is not just the Samsung Galaxy S10 with revamped internals to support next-generation 5G mobile network speeds. In fact, this is an entirely new handset with a number of brand new features that can not be found anywhere else in the Galaxy S10 range.
According to a recent report, Samsung will be releasing the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G in South Korea first, starting 5 April 2019. The 256GB model will cost 1.39 million South Korean won (that's about $ 1,226 / £ 933) and the 512GB model will cost 1.55 million won (about $ 1,367 / £ 1,041).
Those prices compare favorably with the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus, which is priced at $ 1,249 / £ 1,099 for the 512GB model, but do remember that we rarely see direct currency conversions for prices between regions so the current US and UK prices could differ.
After South Korea, the next territory to get the handset will be the United States. There's no word on UK availability but you can be sure that when the UK 5G networks arrive you can bet that the 5G Galaxy S10 will not be far behind.
Samsung has fitted its new S10 5G model with the largest display of any of its new smartphones - yes, that includes the Galaxy S10 Plus. The Galaxy S10 5G has a humongous 6.7-inch Quad HD AMOLED display with the same dual-curved design as the S10 and S10 Plus. The Galaxy S10 5G also adopts the new Infinity-The design that allows the display to bleed to the very edge of the chassis - with a hole for the Dual-Pixel 10-megapixel selfie camera to peek through out.
Like the Galaxy S10 Plus, the S10 5G has a dual-camera set-up - but that's where the similarities end. While the Galaxy S10 Plus has an 8-megapixel depth sensor, the Galaxy S10 5G has a hQVGA 3D-depth sensing camera which will offer improved Live Focus photographs and bring the effect to video footage for the first time. Samsung has fitted the same 3D-depth sensing camera to the rear-mounted camera too, bringing the total number of sensors to six.
Like the front-facing variation, the hQVGA quality sensor, which equates to 0.038-megapixels, will enable adjustable bokeh-style blur behind the subject in real-time when shooting video. While a number of flagship handsets already offer Portrait Mode-esque photos, this is the first time we've seen the same effect applied to video. The new depth-sensing camera will also enable new Augmented Reality (AR) modes and effects in the future, Samsung has promised.Powering the Galaxy S10 5G is an 8-nanometer processor. It's currently unclear whether this will be the same variant that fuels the S10e, S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus, or whether it will be mid-cycle update to support 5G networks.
However, as with previous entries in the Galaxy S series, we expect all S10 5G models sold in the United States and China use the flagship Qualcomm SnapDragon chipset, while those on shelves in the UK, Europe, and South Korea will likely the Samsung-designed Exynos Silicon.
The new 5G-touting flagship will boast a colossal 4,500mAh battery, which is more than any other smartphone in the Galaxy S10 line-up. However, given what a battery-drain 5G is expected to be, it might not result in the two-day battery life of your dreams. If you have some battery left over, you'll be able to share it with your friends thanks to the new Wireless PowerShare feature. This is not only lets you top-up the new Galaxy Buds - the new AirPod rivals announced at Galaxy Unpacked alongside the new handsets - by placing their bundled charge on your new phone, but it also be used to top-up rival smartphone batteries.
