Next-generation speeds

Having played a key role in moving the industry towards 3G and 4G, Samsung is once again leading the charge with 5G.

In short 5G will transform how consumers live, communicate and work by connecting not only smartphones but also vehicles, factories, offices and cities as well2.
Enhanced display
Differentiating the Galaxy S10 5G from the rest of the Galaxy S10 range, is an array of enhanced features. The device’s 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED display is the Galaxy S Series’ largest smartphone display ever so customers can fully immerse themselves in dazzling HDR10+ content to benefit from an incredible mobile viewing experience.
Pro-Grade Hexa Camera
