Samsung‘s smartphone branding strategy and release schedule can be incredibly confusing at times, with a pretty impressive Galaxy S20 Fan Edition 5G value flagship likely to follow the S10 Lite in just a few months and no word whatsoever on a prospective Galaxy Note 10 Lite sequel yet.
We’re talking about an S Pen-wielding phone here with a beautiful Super AMOLED display in tow sporting a centered hole punch and razor-thin bezels. Meanwhile, the build quality is about as premium as what we expect the Note 20 to offer, pairing a “glasstic” (aka plastic) back with an aluminum frame. Believe it or not, the 4,500mAh battery inside the Note 10 Lite is larger than the 4,300mAh cell tipped for the Note 20, although the Exynos 9810 is not exactly the world’s most impressive processor.
On the bright side, the three 12MP rear-facing cameras are pretty great for the sub-$400 segment, and the same goes for the 8GB RAM/128GB internal storage combination of this particular Note 10 Lite configuration available for 385 bucks. The heavily discounted handset even comes with a microSD card slot and headphone jack, both of which should be missing from the Note 20’s list of features.
