Still have a Note 10 Plus you are enjoying? Let me know!

For me, any device with no expandable storage is a downgrade and a dealbreaker. I only got my Note 10+ last year from Samsung's pre-owned system but its been the best device I've ever used. Does everything I need. The only thing I can see the S22 Ultra doing that it doesnt is the high refresh rate, and that alone isnt worth 1000+ dollars. I'd rather get a Note 20 Ultra if I was to upgrade.

I have been using a note 10 plus for about 2.5 years, serves me well. I'm in no hurry to spend money when this phone does everything I need it to. Including battery lasting a full day or more.

sticking with my note 10+ through 2023...still a beast of a phone.i like having my sd slot...not a fan of cloud storage,when i finally decide to upgrade not sure if I will stick with Samsung or go with another brand since I don't like the direction they are going in with taking away more & more features & charging the same or more & giving us less of the features we have come to love as note users...it's no longer the Swiss army knife of phones as it once was & that is why i loved the note in the first place.

Note 10 plus here, device is smooth and battery lasts almost all day. Still great device in 2022.

I am holding on to my Note 10 + for sure. Expandable memory, slim profile, great battery (I never crank up brightness and use it at FHD, which easily gives me 10+ full day battery). In addition, as you mentioned, I am still getting all the S-Pen features + going to get another year of firmware and security updates plus One UI 4.1 is fantastic. So, I'm holding on to a paid off phone (completed my term in Sep 2020), so I don't see any need for upgrading to S22 Ultra.

Sticking with my Note 10+ for sure! Not just because I was able to buy it outright new on an upgrade deal about a year after it's release. But because it's operating a good if not better than new

As Flossy says..."Treat yourself, don't cheat yourself." 😁😁

I needed to hear this to keep my ass in check and hold the note 10 plus. 😂😂

Still rocking the note 10 lite 256 gb for 3 years now. Had the note 4 before that and loved it too. It's the perfect size for my small hands. Replaced the battery about 6 months ago. Still works perfect. No cracks or damage. I can get $800 on a trade for a S22plus now. After doing research I decided to keep the Note. It's been amazing and I don't buy phones for a better camera. The note camera is good. The phones are just getting too big to safely carry in pockets or small hands. The note 10 lite and s22 plus are good sizes. Just not enough improvement in 3 years to "upgrade" a great phone yet.

As a Note 10+ user since it's launch, I still like it a lot but there's one thing to take in consideration that you've didn't mentioned and it's the resale value. Right now I can sell my Note 10+ for about 500$ CAD and the S22 Ultra is about 2000$ CAD so I'm paying 1500$ to upgrade now. If I wait next year for the S23 Ultra, my Note 10+ might only worth 150$ since there won't be updates anymore at this time and I doubt the S23 Ultra will be cheaper than the S22 Ultra. So I'll save now to keep it another year, but I might lose what I've saved if I change it only when it worth almost nothing. I don't know when it's the best time to take advantage of that resale value, but for sure it's to take in consideration too.

Thank you sir. I just paid off my Note 10 plus and was thinking about upgrading. Seeing that I have become more accustomed with the features and benefits of this phone and you, I decided to wait until there is no longer updates for my Samsung Note 10 plus.

He nailed everything about why I was looking for this video. Even down to the reasons. Lol. I saw my note 10 will be paid off soon and am trying to decide whether to upgrade or enjoy the lower bill for a while. I really wanted a good excuse to waste some money on a new toy but I guess it's not the year.

You forgot to mention one important thing (imo). The Note 10 Plus main camera has dual physical aperture, meaning you can change it from f/1.5 to f/2.4. My main business is selling collectible cards and the wider aperture of this new phones makes it impossible for me to take pics of this cards because it will give too much bokeh to the point it becomes useless to me when I want to show the corner or edges of the mentioned cards so customers can see the conditions. The optional f/2.4 aperture of the Note 10 Plus is one of the best things that has ever happened to me phone-wise. Idk why no one is implementing this fantastic technology

Are you wearing a custom watch from namokimods with samurai case and namoki hexad bracelet?

That was my major excuse from my OnePlus 7 Pro to the S22 Ultra, 1P7p is on Android 11 and 12 will be the end of the road and we still don't have it. For security patches it had been going strong for 2.5 years but 2022 I haven't had anything, so while it's ok today, I don't know if I'm comfortable with it being a bit behind.

great video, there gets a point where enough is enough - most apps don't require the most powerful hardware and it seems like overkill in many ways - i would love to try the camera but i am not sure that is enough reason to update from my note 20 ultra.

Life and health caught me off guard this past summer. The guy that had 2 phones on his carrier, lost his carrier. Note 10 + is paid off and unlocked, so popped in a cheaper carrier's sim, and fell back in love with my Note. Why create a bill in these unstable times?? Great comparison and topic.

Storage wasn't an issue once I saw how much I have used over the last 2.5 years which I was shocked by. Only thing I don't like about the s22 is the placement of the s pen. Great video.

Note 10 plus has never felt like it was lacking to me in any way. I'm going to hold on to it for another year or two. There's no major innovation with the ultra, or change to form factor that makes the ultra a must have for me. I have my eye on the galaxy fold moving forward.. An internal spen, thinner device, and thinner design is what I'm waiting on there. Still super happy with my note, it crushes all tasks with ease. We also are no longer saying huge leaps in display technology as displays have been amazing for years.These phones have just gotten so good. ... It's hard to justify an upgrade.

Finally! You're the only one i've come across on YT that has mentioned how people who use their phones with their left hand love the button placement on the N10+! I write with my right hand but i use my phone with my left so i really enjoyed my N10+

I love my note 10 plus but sad to say upgrade limit is only android 12.

How about the speakers on both phones? I've seen some say the bass is flat on the s22 ultra. Is that the case or is it about the same as the note 10 +?

I had the Note 10 plus since it’s launch and i loved it. I just upgraded to the S22 Ultra as the Note battery was stating to wane. I love the Ultra, it’s the phone for me. I really do love it!

Please which will you recommend buying between the note 10 plus and s20 plus, I'm on the fence and I plan on getting it in the coming days

Good video. Straight to the point, no filler, no BS. Got yourself a new sub

I have been running note 10+ since release and it was solid for me but since I have exynos, it lags, battery life I find myself charging 2 times a day now. I bought the s22u with sd and hopefully will carry for the next few years.

Honestly if you are not a tech head and let's face it not everyone understands all the improvements on these devices. I have the note 10 plus and it's absolutely a beast in 2022. Looks better than most 2022 phones. The ram on this phone is amazing . In my eyes this phone is up there with all the latest devices except for the refresh rate and some camera functions. I have expandable storage .. I have 256 gigs on board storage 12 gigs of ram.. show me a 2022 device with all that.. lol love how you broke this down. I'm definitely keeping my note 10 plus for 2022

Got my s22 ultra Tuesday from my note 10+. Huge upgrade. Note 10 is still great and usable for sure but s22 ultra is enjoyable. Camera difference is huge ! 120hz refresh rate Haptic feedback Brightness Battery Speed

This is a great video man. When you mentioned people who needed the latest and greatest tech, an extension of this video, should you buy the first generation of, or the first release of the, that 'New Next Generation Tech' or wait a cycle or two.

Love the look 22 ultra , have s10+ but a beautiful white note 10+ in the mail, your review helped a little thanks 😊.

I ended upgrading to the s22 ultra mainly for the cameras and I honestly can't decide if the photos are better than my note 10 plus. It's definitely better at macro and at zooming but when it comes to standard every day pics I can't decide. Sometimes the the s22 ultra looks better but a lot of the time I prefer the Note 10 plus photos

Hi..I m using note10plus since 2019.. its awsome.. but air actions of spen not working.. any help you can do to sort this problem... tried many thing s.. still facing same issues ... no air actions..

I had the Note 10 plus up until last week. I was just waiting for them to get rid of that ugly bump on the camera, geez.

After almost 3 years of using the Note 10+, I've started to dislike curved edges (I'm probably in the minority). I can't see myself using the same look-alike device for another 3 years. Writing on my Note 4 and 5 felt better somehow. I think I'll wait and see what Samsung does next, or maybe I'll try the S22+ as I really like the design. Great comparison.

Love the video. This is exactly what I was looking for. Real world. I love my note 10 plus. Gave mine to my artistic daughter and bought a pixel 6....nope missed my note. So i searched and found a brand new note 10plus. Also love the ISLANDER ;)

I just went from note 9 to s22 ultra. I don't feel the upgrade much. My phone was still super fast. This screen is larger. But the difference in the camera is not gigantic. Software updates aren't supported anymore though and my screen was cracked, so bit the plunge.

Thank you very, very much! It was a big help. ♡

What a great review. Love the style and how you tell it like it is. This is real. Sub.

After watching your video I have decided to return s22ultra and keep my note 10 plus. Cheers!!!

I have both the 512g Note 10+ & 512g S22 Ultra & really love them both.. Battery life is what I was after, I like to watch downloaded movies while outdoors, browse, etc. Battery life is about the same as the Ultra. My battery life went to crap after the 12 Update. So maybe the next update will fix performance. 🤞 I am getting awesome antenna feeds w/ the 22 Ultra! Where I was getting 4g? I'm now getting 5g & LTE+ where I was getting LTE before. I park in the same spot in the woods where I live.. The Photos & Brighter Display was my main reason for getting the Ultra & I wasn't disappointed! Ultra takes beautiful wildlife pics! Zoom feature also! My Note 10+ is more S-Pen Responsive than the Ultra. I'm obviously keeping my Note 10+. It feels so tiny & much lighter in my hands. This Ultra has some heft to it & I like that. Plus the smooth 120h. I don't like this Neo Hybrid Spigen Case. It's slippery in my hand. The Note 10+ is a Killa phone in 2022. Like you so greatly stated, "you really don't have to upgrade, wait another year." I almost sent my 22 Ultra back but with my Carrier, Xfinity Mobile? I can stream 5g & it not go against my data! 🤟 Great info from SE TX

My battery life is starting to tank and support has officially ended for it, I didn't get android 13 or one UI 5. I'm gonna try and hold out for the S23 ultra though.

The S22 Ultra is very tempting but I don't see much difference between the S22 Ultra and my S10 and I feel like I will be wasting my money if I upgrade. I went to the Samsung shop to compare the S22 ultra to my S10. After thinking for a long time, I have decided not to upgrade until Samsung makes a better flagship phone in the future that is worth spending soo much money to upgrade.

I just don't understand why they didn't shrink more bezel on s22 ultra.

Still Rockin' the Note 10+ 256Gb after 3 years. Can't believe I paid it off a year ago, seems like it was only yesterday. I actually have had two of them, and the other was the Note 10+ 5G 512Gb, which had a failure on the Antenna after about 1 year, very disappointing. How does an Antenna even fail? It's an internal component, and the phone was in near mint condition. Broken phone experience aside, these were both my favorite Smartphones to date. Was considering the generous trade in value towards the Z Fold 4 right now, but would really miss the palmable 10+ and silo'd S pen. I just don't want to carry around an external S pen, but it's a favorite feature of these things!!! Honestly a tough decision nearing the end of 2022. I think I would prefer to just keep this phone forever.

Just came across your video and I'm thinking about upgrading my s10 plus to a s22 ultra 1tb. camera quality is a big deal for me so that would be a reason to upgrade but I'm trying to figure out how to go about moving my SD storage over to the S22 Ultra. Samsung told me I should get a USB Type C card reader. has anybody tried this method before? also I'm picky about style and I always felt like the Aura Black on the S10 wasn't truly black and more of a blue with a mirror finish. I love the styling and Phantom Black color way on the S22 Ultra. I've had my phone since Dec 2019. what should I do 😅

Unfortunately my note 10 plus charger port doesn't keep the charger in it and my battery drains fast

Note 10 plus has MST and I think S22U doesn’t have MST. Mst is very convenient to use at all vendors and it seems magical. After A12/UI4.0 update NOTE 10PLUS rocks and a pleasure to use . Just For cameras and 120hz doesn’t seem to be that important for me. Photos of NT10+ & S22U when posted on social media looks almost same! Sticking with mine NT10Plus until Samsung brings out a better FOLD4 with BIGGER OUTER SCREEN.

Maybe I would replace my Note 10 Plus next year since it won't be receiving any software and security updates (assuming Samsung will no longer support it). My phone is currently running on Android 12 and the experience feels like new, the cameras are still plenty capable too. My only gripe is that I have the Exynos version and it shows its age under heavy gaming. The S22 Ultra is a great device though.

Still enjoying it and I don't see why I should upgrade because they look almost the same except at the back. Performance still good but the only problem is the Spen that shows disconnected and no longer take pictures, but it works when it comes to writing notes and other stuff, I tried another Spen but still doesn't work, all the tricks don't work to get it working again. But still I see no reason for now, maybe with S23 ultra there will be huge difference even on the design part of it.

I have the Note 10+ 5G I've had it since it came out it works so flawlessly I really want the new s22 ultra but I'm having a hard time upgrading the only real every day upgrade I see is the camera

First time visit on your channel... awesome content...🔥

It's Dec 2022 and I just went into Phone company store in did a comparison between my Galaxy note 10 plus and the S22 ultra, And I was a little sad but mainly very satisfied that I did not feel the need to upgrade next year to the S22 ultra, Other than for the camera which I don't really care about, I never really zoom in on things. The Galaxy note 10 plus still looks pretty darn sexy to me. Thank you for this video.

I have a note 10, I love that phone, but I'm telling you, if you like astrophotography, the S22 ultra is a must. If you have trouble reading signs far away or have issues seeing your kid playing in a sports setting, you'll appreciate the zoom capabilities. Battery life is meh, so far, but it takes time for your battery to learn your usage. My battery life on the note 10 got better over time, even as the battery degraded, because each update refined the phone. Nothing wrong with the Note 10 at all but if your into cameras and really snappy fluidity, you'll be happy with the S22 ultra

I have noticed signal degradation since they moved 5G into my neighborhood. So I don't know if 5G is hurting my galaxy note 10 plus...

A very helpful review, thank you very much

I meant to go today upgrade, but now I'll wait till next year ...:) thanks

Bought a S22U 512 GB for my personal use and kept the Note 10+ 256 GB dedicated for work. The Note 10+ is still a great phone.

Just pre-ordered my S22 Ultra... they are giving me $1000 towards it for my Note 10 Plus so it was a no brainer for me

I don't jump devices that often and tend to look at multiple things when I do. My last 2 devices were the Note 3 and the Sansumg edge. And I bought the edge, because my note 3 broke. Literally, it fell and broke in half. That was my best phone ever. Now, I switched to the note 10+ because the edge was reallyyyy showing its age and I felt like it was time to upgrade since I didn't want to do a custom built OS just to upgrade its performance. I can honestly say, I love the note 10plus and I don't see myself upgrading it for any of the newer models anytime soon. Especially if they don't have expandable memory! Who was the genius who thought of not adding it!?!!?!?!? If I do, it would be a Note 20 ultra but not having 256G of internal memory kinda sucks.

Your voice!! It sounds so familiar! I can't think of who you sound like but it's like I've heard it before somwhere.

Just paid off my note 10 plus 2 days ago then I went and got the 22 ultra the same day. Only reason I did was to have a fresh battery basically

Bought my 10+ 512 new and I still love it.

went BACK to the note 10 plus. lighter and charges super fast. sleek and sexy with no case. its a work of art to me. simplicity wins. and limitless storage.

Just order my Note 10+ 512gb(blue) yesterday for $499. Coming from a Note 8 felt it would feel like an obvious upgrade. Plus I wanted to use my 1tb sd card that I currently have in my Note8. I didn't feel the differences between Note10+ and S22U was enough to justify the S22U and its $1299 price tag.

I'm still super happy with my note 10 plus! Great video!

Love my Note 10 plus. Good review sir! New sub!!!

Honestly most of us take. so many photos we are paying for cloud storage anyway so losing the micro SD card isn't a deal breaker, but getting only 256GB is not a good idea for future proofing your phone! Samsung is giving free storage upgrade.

HATS OFF FOR YOUR HONESTY I HAVE 10+ AND NOT WILLING TO UPGRADE AT THE MOMENT

I think the look of a phone for me is more important than having top specs. My S10 plus is the best Samsungs IV had by far. Battery still a full days charge, panel amazing, gaming 100%. Only device IV never been in a rush to move to the next generation.

I'm thinking of upgrading my note 9 to a 10+ due to lack of continuing support. You can get a referb now for $350ish. Thanks for the info.

Only thing is security updates on the note 10 plus have stopped

I had Note 10 plus. loved it. I only upgraded solely because a carrier paid me 900$ for my Note 10 plus. and...there are no more software security updates for it. for those reasons it was no brainer. so my S22 Ultra cost me 300$ pff... best deal ever.

the only cons with the Note 10 plus is the battery life. overall, it's still a beast of a phone.

Watching this video was so timely, I was about to buy the s22 ultra, and I was waiting for someone to stop me because I feel that this is wrong. Thanks alot for the the video

I have 6 brands of Android smartphone. OneUi is currently the best Android experience you can have. The features that Samsung adds are exceptional.

Great video. Lots of facts

Dang this is the EXACT SITUATION I was just in 2 days ago!! Same phone paid off and everything!! I kept my phone I didn't trade in. I upgraded for the camera tho.

S20s and before don't have c band 5g which is the main useful 5g band for the future.

I am using note 10plus .I like battery life & grt display , slimmer & light weight .

May the force be with you !

I got my note 10 plus a month ago and i love it. Im staying with it.

Ordered the S22U and a Note10+ user in the past.✌🏻

I'm torn on whether to upgrade to the s22 ultra or keep my note 10 plus and get the tab s8 ultra

I still use n10p just fine, no reason for a 22ultra with 8g1 chip in it. Hopefully next year chip catching up with apple. Cuz I also have a 13 mini has longer battery life, iphone chip this year is just amazing.

Hi guys, I'm using Note 10 + and now planning to upgrade my phone. What do you guys think? Should I wait for Fold 4 or should I go with S22 Ultra?

I love my note 10+. I literally have 2 issues. 1. The battery life is degraded 2. It tells me my temperature is too low for it to charge sometimes so it shows charging. My battery meter in my note 10+ is messed up but it's whatever. I'll be getting the S22 Ultra once the Time is right.

I bought the 10+ unlocked new and will stay with it until Samsung pulls their head out of their 4th point of contact and builds a phone with expandable storage again. It’s still awesome on battery life and fast, so no need to “upgrade” any time soon.

I have the note 10+ white from release. I mean I wanna upgrade solely on the fact that my phone has cracks all in it.. buuutt it's no point to upgrade

Probably not worth it considering how Note 10+ is still a very capable and still holds its own to this date. Other than no more OS updates, not much change in functions.

So you suggested us to wait for 23 ultra ?

The problem for me is the trade in factor, the longer I wait to trade in the less I get for my Note10 plus so if I wait for the next best thing I will have to pay full price by then my Note 10 plus will probably be worth $100 and at that price I may as well keep it as a backup. The other factor is the experience, you only live once and missing out on the latest and greatest for most people lacks meaning in life like capturing your kid's soccer game with the 10x optical zoom I already own 2 binoculars a Nikon extreme 10x50 and a Pentax 20x60 both great but big and bulky and expensive so they stay home however with the Samsung s22 ultra I have the power of the sun in the palm of my hand.

Honestly since the S10, these phones have plateaued overall. Only reason I got the S21U a few months ago is because my S10+ became unresponsive from a major crack on the screen. I will say tho the little features of improvement are nice 120hz, bigger fingerprint sensor, better camera etc. But if it didn't become a brick I would still stick with it.

Meh, my N975U1 is getting over 11 hours SOT on a battery nearing replacement. The N10+ color calibration exceeds the S22U's. I'm still running Pie, no cpu cycle sucking scoped storage. Security is not an issue. My current load is over 2 yo still fast, stable with minimal maintenance and zero malware breaches. Zero display degradation, it looks and runs like it was new (always case protected). Projected lifespan, another 2-3+ years. No SD card slot, no sale; I use my 1tb SD card as a data drive. Only apps, the dcim and download folders go on the 500gb internal memory. The cam and spen placement, suck on the S22U. Another Samsung dropped ball...

I have the note 10+ but i already preorder the S22 Ultra... hahahaaaaaaaaaa

If Samsung didn't give me $800 trade in credit for the Galaxy Note 20 and a free Galaxy watch 4. I would have easily kept the note 20 ultra. I don't like how the s pen has that rubberized coating on the s22 ultra s-pen. It makes it harder to take it out of the silo than a note 20 or any note 8 and up.

Hey man, where did you get that wallpaper for the Note 10? It's cute as fuck dude

I upgraded because of the camera the note 20 ultra and note 10 plus can't shoot close ups.

I still love my note 10 plus but for some reason I'm having battery drain on android 12 4.0

You hardly find another cell phone where the price line around 400 bucks with 12g ram and 256g rom in such a high quality build...
