Galaxy Note 10+ Unboxing and First Impressions

The hyper surrounding the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ is crazy! It isn’t by any means a revolutionary product but it is, nonetheless, Samsung’s latest and greatest and best flagship phone ever released.

Many wouldn’t consider it a worthy upgrade over the Note 9 but we beg to differ. The bigger 6.8 inch virtually bezel-less screen is enough of a reason to upgrade, aside from it’s obvious power difference from the Note 9 – including double the ram, double the cameras, better processor, better GPU, bigger battery and more than double the charging speed put it as a contender as probably “The best phone” of 2019.

Today, we were lucky enough to be one of the first to unbox a retail package in the Philippines, THANKS TO GLOBE PLATINUM who delivered the handset to us at 9AM today (August 19th), and we would like to share with you what’s inside the box and as an added bonus – compare it to the Galaxy Note 9.

(Sorry for the audio. There was a lot of distortion that we had to clean out)
