The war between Samsung and Apple regarding which is better at rolling out the most innovative smartphone today is still raging as ever. And with the Samsung Galaxy S10 slated to come out next year, the battle will only be more intense from there.
Right now, Apple seems to have the upper hand as its iPhone X has beaten the Samsung Galaxy S9. Samsung has already admitted that S9 sales have been stagnant since the device's release, dropping the company’s revenue by 4 percent from last year’s earnings. The Samsung Galaxy S10 will be the manufacturer’s attempt at regaining the lead from Apple.
The company revealed that its operating profit was 14.87 trillion won ($13.3 billion) and its revenue was 58.4 trillion won ($52.1 billion), BGR reported. The Samsung Galaxy S10 is being positioned to increase the revenue of the company as it is touted as one of the best smartphones to ever hit the market.
The company placed an ultrasonic sensor on the Samsung Galaxy S10, a feature that no other smartphone on the market has. Samsung CEO DJ Koh said that the deviation from optical sensors was because the technology isn’t reliable, something the company considers as detrimental, especially now that they want their sales to go higher.
Aside from the ultrasonic sensor, the Samsung Galaxy S10 will have a screen-to-body ratio of 93 percent, which is higher than the S9's 83.6 percent screen-to-body ratio. It will have five cameras in total, three on the back and two on the front.
Also, leaked photos of the Samsung Galaxy S10 show that the phone will have a bezel-less display. The company released an ad last week mocking the iPhone X’s notch, which, according to the ad, somewhat covers part of the screen whenever a user is viewing a video.
While there is no official confirmation of how much the Samsung Galaxy S10 will cost, it’s estimated to be around £799 ($1,048) and £899 ($1,179) for the standard and Plus models, respectively. The smartphone is expected to hit the market on Feb. 24, 2019, although this too hasn’t been confirmed.
