After a lengthy leak marathon today Samsung introduced the Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite. Both are built around 6.7" FullHD+ Infinity-O displays and pack 4,500mAh batteries with 25W fast charging support.

The Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite is powered by a 7nm chipset featuring an octa-core CPU that has its clusters running at 2.8GHz, 2.4GHz and 1.7GHz. While not explicitly confirmed it matches the Snapdragon 855 perfectly.

The platform will be coupled with 6GB or 8 GB RAM and 128GB storage. A microSD card slot enables further storage expansion

The features a trio of cameras - main 48MP shooter with f/2.0 aperture, 123-degree FoV ultrawide angle f/2.2 lens sitting in front of a 12MP sensor and a 5MP macro shooter. The front-facing camera in the punch hole has a 32MP sensor and an f/2.2 lens.
More excitingly the Galaxy S10 Lite is the first Samsung phone to feature the company's new Super Steady OIS for its main camera, which is said to offer even better stabilization than its flagships.

The Samsung Galaxy Note10 Lite comes complete with an S Pen with Air Command support. On the front it has the exact same 32MP camera embedded in the punch hole on its 6.7” FullHD+ display.

The company didn't reveal the actual chipset inside this one, but confirmed it is built on a 10nm process and comes with an octa-core CPU with four cores at 2.7 GHz and four more at 1.7 GHz. This sounds like an Exynos 9810 with slightly downclocked CPU. RAM is again 6/8GB and the storage is 128GB, but you can add to it via microSD cards.

There are three cameras on the back - 12 MP f/1.7 main shooter with Dual Pixel AF and OIS, 12 MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle cam and a 12 MP f/2.4 telephoto snapper.

Interestingly enough the Samsung Galaxy Note10 Lite comes with a 3.5mm audio jack - something the regular Galaxy Note 10 phones lacked. Conversely the Galaxy S10 Lite lacks a legacy audio port even though all three Galaxy S10 phones so far had it.

The Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite will ship with Android 10 out of the box that has One UI 2 on top.

The first one will be sold in Prism White, Prism Black, or Prism Blue color, while the latter will be offered in either Aura Glow, Aura Black, or Aura Red paint jobs.

The phones will go on sale by the end of Q1. The Galaxy Note10 Lite will cost €599, while the Galaxy S10 Lite is €649.

This weird decision caught my eye:

"Interestingly enough the Samsung Galaxy Note10 Lite comes with a 3.5mm audio jack - something the regular Galaxy Note10 phones lacked. Conversely the Galaxy S10 Lite lacks a legacy audio port even though all three Galaxy S10 phones so far had it."
 
Looks like they will cost close to R20,000 in SA. Crazy money for a phone that will probably be replaced within 2 years.
 
Contract wise I'm existing 600-700pm which would seem very Lite. Hopefully they surprise us.
 
Isn't the S10e a better option? What's the differences?
S10e is nice and small at 5.8inches compared to 6.8 S10 lite. I reckon it's compact form is the reason most people pick the s10e.
S10 lite does have a bigger battery and an additional camera although not sure if it is of the same quality of the original S10 lineup.
All very confusing. Probably a money grab using last years tech just before s11 is launched.
 
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite will cost R12 999 in SA, available in Feb

Samsung on Thursday announced the price and availability information of the Galaxy Note 10, the device that’s headlining Samsung’s mid-range effort.

As a baby Note, it packs the largest battery in the line but also the largest selfie camera sensor at 32MP.
You can have at more detailed stats over here, but what’s important here is price.

Justin Hume, head of Samsung’s integrated devices confirmed that the phone will be available from the “beginning of February” for R12 999.

That’s quite a bit more than what we thought it could cost.

This is the 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage version, btw.

For those looking to pick one up on contract, the phone will go for around R599 per month, Hume added.
The company also announced its new Galaxy A series lineup on Thursday, which includes the A71 and A51 mid-rangers.
