Note 10+... A few things you may not know

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is an amazing phone, as a Note device should be. It has its short comings as all devices do, but all in all this is the phone to beat all phones. I'm not doing an un-boxing as every YouTuber on the planet has already done them. I'm here to talk about the things no one or very few are talking about.

Lets get started. First off the "Aura Glow" color is actually "Aura Glow Silver" I like so many others ordered this color because... well its fricking awesome! But no one that I have seen in the tech vlog world is calling it by its true color. Heres a picture of the label on the box mine came in. You will see it says "Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 256G SVR KIT.

So to suport this I also have the Galaxy Buds in Silver, pictured here with the white Buds that I got with the S10+.

They also do the color change, not as dynamic as the phone, but still a nice added touch.

Another feature (and I will do a video of this some day) is a feature where you can open apps from the lock screen by holding you finger/thumb on the fingerprint scanner and swiping over the app. I have it set to open Gmail and Gallery. You can set this up in the settings under lock screen the scroll to App Short cuts. Right now I haven't been using it as I just set it up but I will find this handy as those are two of the most used apps I have.

As you can see in the photo above the camera is full screen. As the phone is set from the factory the only shooting mode with this feature is the "Instagram" mode. But if you go into the camera app and hit the second icon from the right and choose "Full" the whole screen becomes your canvas.
I mean one of the reasons you buy a Note device is the screen size, and this one has the biggest screen on a Note device to date. So why not put that screen to use, after all its beautiful.

The back of this phone is like a mirror.. I mean just like a mirror. I took some pictures of the phone while at a park. I was at a table under some trees. Well you tell me what you think....

Stunning right? here is one of the S10+ under the same conditions

Now lets talk about the lack of a headphone jack. Well hell its gone and I doubt its coming back. I for one don't really mind so much I'm old and my hearing isn't pin point sharp anymore, so I can't tell the big sound difference between wireless and wired headphones. I'm not sure I ever could actually. I know some sound better than others. But if I have a set of wireless headphones that sound good I'm fine with that. I only use the wired headphones when I forget my Buds anyway and that has only happened once in the last few years. I normally give the wired headphones away that come with the device. I did however keep the USB type c ones that came with the Note 10+. As they are the only set like that I have. (Having a backup is never a bad idea).

As I work way to many hours for a man my age I haven't had the time or energy to really put the camera through its paces, but I plan on doing that over the next few weeks. My plan is to start doing video vlogs on tech and photography. I would love to see you come checkout my channel when it gets up and running.

I will have more on the Note 10+ as time permits so check back in a few days and see what is up with me.
Thanks for stopping in, leave a comment or a question and I'll see if i can get you the answers.
