No headphone jack, a 5G model and a whole lotta dollars
Samsung surprised nobody by unveiling a pair of eye-wateringly expensive smartphones – the Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10+ – while talking up best buddy Microsoft at an event last night in New York City.
To be fair, the previous Galaxy Note9 was a decent, if pricey, bit of kit and the hulking Note 10 has continued that trend both in terms of tech and the cash Samsung expects you to cough up for the thing.
There is no headphone jack – it's USB-C or Bluetooth from now on.
And Samsung will expect you to part with £869 for the Note 10 or £999 for the Note 10+.
Another £100 on the price of the Note 10+ will get you the 5G that manufacturers are desperately hoping will kick-start the moribund smartphone market.
When the Galaxy Note 10 was announced on Wednesday, Samsung talked about its new design, upgraded cameras and even introduced a second, larger model called the Note 10 Plus.
But one thing that was never mentioned (aside from the Galaxy Fold) was the fact that there was no longer a headphone jack on the Galaxy Note.
Absent were any signs of a headphone jack.
But in 2019, when Apple doesn't sell a single new iPhone model with a headphone jack and companies like Google, OnePlus and Huawei have removed them from their flagships, it's not surprising that the Galaxy Note 10 doesn't have one.
We can't pour one out for the 3.5-millimeter audio jack just yet because brands like LG and Motorola still have them on new phones.
Motorola removed the headphone jack from its Moto Z phone in 2016 only to bring it back on the this year's Moto Z4.
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 remains one of the best smartphones offered by Samsung till now.
However, it is currently suspended by Samsung, but Galaxy Note 9 offers some great features and a fantastic camera.
