Samsung today officially announced the Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite. Both these devices have leaked numerous times over the last few weeks and almost everything about them was already known.
The Korean company says that its new Galaxy Lite models aim to bring premium features like S Pen, an immersive display, long-lasting battery, and camera innovation at a lower price point to consumers.
The Galaxy S10 Lite and Note10 Lite both feature a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED Plus Infinity-O Display. The displays have a punch-hole at the center similar to the Galaxy Note10 series and unlike the Galaxy S10. A 32MP f/2.0 selfie camera sits in the punch-hole.
The Galaxy S10 is powered by a Snapdragon 855 chipset and packs 6/8GB RAM, 128GB storage, microSD card slot, in-display fingerprint scanner, and face unlock. The Galaxy Note10 Lite also has the same specs but it comes with a 10nm Exynos 9810 chip instead of the Snapdragon one.
