Not the 10th Anniversary phone - Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion

I've seen a few posts and comments mention this being the "10th Anniversary" phone and just wanted to point out that's not the case. While it's the 10th Galaxy S phone, it's only the 9th Anniversary as the original Galaxy S was released in 2010.

So they are saving the New Infinity all-screen for the actual 10th. Makes sense!

"New Samsung Galaxy SX 10th Anniversary Edition! Nothing but Infinity touch screens all around: front, back, and sides!"
Imagine trying to manipulate that in your hands. Now imagine Bixby being touchscreen sensitive on all sides.

But S10 is tenth model so it is Anniversary model.

..... But not the 10th Anniversary model. That's what I'm saying. The iPhone X was the 11th main iPhone (released 10 years after the original iPhone).

why would anyone care about this?

I know it's nit-picking but it is still a bit of a pet peeve of mine. If you don't like that I have an opinion, move on.

I was almost going to buy tf1 and saw on the net and realized tf2 is only a few Weeks away.

The announcment is a few weeks away. Nvidia did not even announced Kal-EL officially.
Which means at best i will be able to buy the TF2 next year q1/q2.
That's a pretty bad assumption. They haven't announced it. It will be at least a couple of weeks after an announcement. You can also factor in delays and such. I seriously doubt a release will be this year.
As far as I can tell, no company has even hinted at a Kal-El device for the near future.
And there will be delays... from both Nvidia and Asus. I'd be a bit surprised if they had released something before February.

Why in the world would you believe "some websites"?
The tegra 3 hasn't even been released yet. They've dropped hints here and there to keep their investors. But that is it. And based on history, these kinds of products are due for delays.
And don't expect the price of the TF 1 to drop. The TF2 will be $100 more.
I don't understand why people think the TF2 can come out in a couple weeks. Here's a breakdown of what's going to happen.
Nvidia has to actually release the chip. Asus engineers have to integrate it into their systems. There will undoubtedly be hardware and software bugs. They'll have to stamp out those bugs, or at least enough of the bugs for the system to be stable. Then they'd have to rush these new specs out to production.
You're looking at at least 6 months.
I learn from history. I first heard about a transformer-like device from asus in mid 2010. Just groundless rumors saying asus would "soon" come out with a powerful tablet that is different than any other tablets (keyboard dock hint hint). I waited and waited and waited... Then a year later, the TF finally came out. By that time, I had bought the a500.
So, again, what person in his right mind would think the TF 2 will come out in a couple weeks? I don't get it. Who started this ridiculous rumor?
tegra 3 is already a finished product.

here is the first kal-el tablet: http://lenzfire.com/2011/10/zte-us-10-1-inch-tablet-with-nfc-quad-core-processor-83342/.
http://kubagi.net/zte-t98-the-first-tablet-with-quad-core-processor/
i'm still hoping that it will release by end of this year. I think they are getting pretty close. They would not have finalized the price so far in advance if it was not slated for release until next year.
the price has been finalized by the CEO of the company.

Yea it's gonna be a screamer...... site says it's runnng Android 2.3....progress
Maybe it's sooo advanced it's too good for even HC
G for Games Source information for The TF2 is from Droid Life we all know no "just Rumors" there,
Wait for the 25nm chips thats he next real screamers
Of course... they didn't get the whole "different" tablet thing correct either... Always Innovating had it first. I was going to get that tablet.. but it was so ugly. So glad Asus made it so much better.
Isn't the TF1 still selling really well? What's the rush to cannibalize the success of this tablet? And I very much doubt that the TF2 is really that close to being ready to release. I'm guessing no sooner than early Q2 next year honestly. Really, the hardware of the TF1 isn't really holding it back at this point, it's the lack of a lot of good apps/games/etc IMHO. I just hope that other companies see the success of the true docking keyboard form factor so there will be other choices and a continued segement of the tab market that the TF101 currently holds all to itself. I really don't need a tab without the keyboard - it is MUCH easier to use as my laptop replacment with the tab docked. Also a big advantage to double the battery life with the dock.... anyway, I am digressing.... I call April 2012 for the TF2.
whats with all of this hate?
I would assume the best guess being October seeing as the CEO confirmed the Transformer 2 will NOT be delayed as previous speculation stated. This may push to November with the announcement of ICS being pushed back. We'll have to wait and see. I just purchased a Transformer a week ago and am returning it to wait for this beast.

What are you basing October/November on? Even if the CEO confirmed no delays, you have no idea what its general timeframe of release is. If X = expected release date and Y = delay, X - Y = Z (actual expected release date). You're somehow saying X - 0 = October/November, while providing no info that solves for X. Like I said in my last post, Q1 at the earliest, with April being my personal prediction.

TF1 was first shown in CES January 2011 but was really available in June/July. Wouldn't be suprised if TF2 has same schedule for 2012.
in response yto the OP's original question...no one knows for sure. It's anyones guess. if the history of the Tf1 means anything it will still be a while.Not that I doubt for a minuite they might try to rush some halfassed product out the door in time for Christmas sales. It's a business and that seems to be the norm in the computer and or mobile industry ...correction,,,all industries.
i have an off topic question can you guyz please answer.
Can we type while video calling or use IM and video call at the same time? skype or gtalk or anything.
I havent used a tablet before so i wanted to know this before i get my first tablet...Because my GF never speaks while video chat we just look at each other and type whatever we want to say please someone answer my question
android community has just released this bit of info: androidcommunity.com/asus-eee-transformer-2-could-be-coming-november-7th-20111011/

ok here you go buddy. It was a RUMOR that the transformer was to be released in october.
google Transformer 2 coming out in October you'll get dozens of other sites reporting the same thing.
Also, a report came out TODAY saying that the trasnformer 2 was slated for a november 7th release date according to a UK retailer.(READ LINK FROM POST ABOVE)
I cant post links because i need atleast 8 posts to post URLs
How many fingers are going to point to this date? April? I'd put my money on november 7th. Much more logical then to trust some random kid on a forum going "ya i think its april"
Edit: i know that it is a RUMOR that it was supposed to be released in October but think about it. Why would the CEO make claims that the transformer 2 would not be delayed if their wasnt a "general timeframe"

Thanks for the poll link.
Thanks to all of you, our favorite phone is trending nicely @#1 now!
I think we'll succeed in putting it on top this week.

We need 60 more votse to beat the Nexsits, oh sorry Nexus. Come on guys
TO be honest i still can't find out why nexus is a great phone better than Samsung S2
Both now have ICS. Almost same specs with S2, camera only 5MP, no micro slot for expended memory. AND S2 came out more than 1 year ago, Nexus when pretty new like our Note. Haizzz
I like how the experts rank the 4s #1 with 35 points and then the nexus 2nd with only 22 points and the note with only 14 points,seriously what a freaking joke
We got the #1 spot last week! Yes!
Let's keep it there~ Come and vote!!!!

I agree, alot of these so called experts just love to hate on the Note, even though a ton of the public loves it. I voted this week.
Guys at BGR and Gizmodo should take their foot out of their mouths after writing articles like these:

are you sure you are being 100% honest?
It's really funny how Phonedog splits Galaxy S-II phones as four different phones, when in fact, they should all be under one phone model. No, they won't do that because that would put GS-II ahead of their beloved iPhone 4S! Crappleaddicts!
Galaxy Note has been #1 in Phondog's ranking for three weeks but it's currently trending at #2 behind the new challenger, Nokia Lumia 900!
Come on, you loyal Note fans, make your vote count and let's keep our beloved up there at the deserving place of #1!!!

[Q] Recent Build Quality and S/N ?

Hi guys!
As the New Revision and Light Bleed thread seems to loose people's attention, I wonder if that means that recently produced units are finally flawless :fingers-crossed:
Is there anyone who recently purchased a Nexus 9? Did it have any flaws?
Also, I am wondering what build date recently shipped devices have. Could anyone who recently purchased one post the first 4 characters of their serial number (and maybe where they purchased)?
Any posts highly appreciated

Hm, okay, HT4C means December 2014. Interestingly, I have never actually read of a device produced in 2015 (HT51). I wonder if they are still in production.
It seems as if they produced a huge amount in October and November 2014, expecting high demand. Sales then went worse than expected due to mediocre reviews, so they are still selling the devices produced back then. This seems to apply especially for the black model.

End of Samsung's Note brand

Samsung is recommended to drop the Note brand here is why.
What do you folks suggest is this a good decisions or bad ?
Well...since they wanted to unify the family, maybe Samsung could consider rebranding the Note to maybe S8 Pro. Or S8 Plus.
Holy crap let's hope this is not real. "Samsung said to kill off Note brand"

From that report it says..."According to the source inside Samsung, a poll revealed that more than 50% of consumers polled now have a negative feeling about the brand." I wonder where that 50% came from.

Samsung is so cheap... returning it

It is probably partially my fault for not doing a thorough research before buying.
This thing is made of plastic... well, I guess this is OK. What really changed my mind is the storage. For a $1000 phone, it only has 128G model in US and Samsung decides to not inlcude and support Micro-SD slot!
Samsung is so cheap now... I am returning it.
You didn't know those things before you bought it? Those things you mentioned are WHY I bought the Note 20 over the ultra...
