Samsung Galaxy S10
Android smartphone series including S10e, S10, S10+ and S10 5G
The Samsung Galaxy S10 is a series of Android-based smartphones manufactured, developed, designed and marketed by Samsung Electronics as part of its flagship Galaxy S series mainly in 4G LTE versions with a 5G-compatible version also available. For this iteration, five different models were released (a first in the Galaxy S series): the Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, and the Galaxy S10 5G were all announced on 20 February 2019 (during the Galaxy Unpacked press event alongside the Galaxy Fold, the Galaxy Watch Active, the Galaxy Fit/Fit e and the Galaxy Buds), and made available to most countries in the following month; a mid-range variant, the Galaxy S10 Lite, was announced on 3 January 2020, alongside the Galaxy Note 10 Lite.
On 6 March 2020, Samsung launched the successor to the S10e & S10 & S10+, the Galaxy S20 & S20+. The Galaxy S10 5G has been succeeded indirectly by the Galaxy S20 & S20+ and directly by the Galaxy S20 Ultra, which also came in a 4G LTE-only model sold in select regions. The S10e and S10 Lite were later succeeded by the Galaxy S20 FE.
Specifications
Hardware
Chipsets
Like the predecessors, chipsets used for the devices (except for the S10 Lite) vary by country. International models of the S10 use the Exynos 9820 system-on-chip, while the U.S., Canadian, and Chinese models use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855.
The Galaxy S10 Lite, meanwhile, uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 worldwide, which is also used on select models of the first four S10 devices.
Display
The S10 line have five models with various display specifications which include Dynamic AMOLED displays (superAMOLED for S10 Lite) with HDR10+ support and dynamic tone mapping technology. For the first time in the Galaxy S series, all S10 models began using a punch hole display (branded as Infinity-O) instead of using a traditional notch.
The S10, S10+, and S10 5G have a curved screen on its sides that slope over the horizontal edges of the device, while the S10e and S10 Lite have a flat display.

Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as android smartphone series including S10e, S10, S10+ and S10 5G. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 31, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q60021939. 1 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2019 and 2020.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
