Both Note 10 and Note 10 Plus offer larger screens than corresponding S10 and S10 Plus devices, a bigger battery life and an S Pen stylus that can convert handwritten notes

South Korean technology company Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Note 10 last week, marking the ninth entry in the company's stylus-wielding series.

The smartphone will come in two versions – the Note 10 and Note 10 Plus – and will be available starting from August 23.

The biggest differences between Samsung’s Galaxy Note series and the Galaxy S line is usually in the size of its display and its compatibility with the company’s S Pen stylus.

That’s the case yet again this year with the Note 10, although there are also some more granular differences between the phones’ cameras, memory and storage capacities.

Samsung’s new Note phones, like every Note that came before them, come with Samsung’s S Pen stylus, unlike the company’s Galaxy S phones.

This year, Samsung is bringing some new features to the S Pen, such as the ability to convert handwritten notes to text, new gesture controls and a refreshed design.

Other than S Pen support, the biggest advantage the Note 10 offers over the S10 is its larger screen. The Note 10 has a 6.3-inch display compared with the Galaxy S10’s 6.1-inch screen.
