Samsung is all set to launch the
**Galaxy S10-series** for global audiences today and quite frankly, it seems to us that the company does not need to hold an entire event around the launch. Almost all the details of the device have been revealed either via renders or leaks or from the company itself. [caption id=“attachment_5875161” align=“alignnone” width=“1024”] Samsung Galaxy S10 to debut on 20 February in San Francisco. Image: Twitter/Marques Brownlee[/caption] In any case, if you have not been keeping track of the leaks, today’s event will formally take the curtains off the device giving us the first official look at the Galaxy S10-series. We expect at least three Galaxy S10 devices namely, the S10 E, S10 and S10 Plus. We are also expected to see the
**Galaxy Fold** , which will be the company’s first ever folding-display smartphone. Apart from that the
**Galaxy Buds and the Galaxy Watch Active** are also expected to make an appearance today. There is also a slight chance that a new 5G-enabled Galaxy S10 called the S10 Pro might also be revealed, but we aren’t keeping our hopes up for that. The Galaxy Unpacked event is being held at San Fransico at 11 AM PT which is 12.30 AM IST on 21 February. Our liveblog will be keeping you up to date with all the latest developments from the event.

Three Variants
We have the S10, S10 Plus and S10 E as this year’s S10 variants. This is the first time three S-series phones have been announced. But Samsung makes no reference for this. Prolly cause of all the leaks.
Reverse Wireless charging.
The S10 has reverse wireless charging capabilities. The S10 itself features Wireless Charging 2.0 to charge the phone 2X faster than before. Network switching also has some AI thing going on to help you switch to a better network.

Under the hood we shall see the Exynos 9820 or Snapdragon 855 depending on the region. Gaming is a focus here with the partnership with Unity. S10 Battery is going to last 25 percent longer than the S9. Samsung is promising an all-day battery.
Good news for Instagrammers!!

Receives a bigger cheer than expected from the crowd. S10 will have a new Instagram mode in the native camera app. This will let you access all of Insta’s features from the camera app.
S10 front camera
Dual-Pixel tech added on the front camera. S10 Plus will have dual-cameras on the front. There is a depth sensor for bokeh photos and the camera is also capable of recording UHD 4K videos.
Adobe Premier Rush being demoed on stage
Not as powerful as Premier Pro but Rush looks quite refined for a mobile device. Video Editing looks quite snippy and fast. Again we will have to test it to give a final verdict. The app will come later this year.
The new Samsung Galaxy S10 can record HDR10+ video, ultra-wide panorama
S10 Video recording
S10 can record videos in HDR 10+ making it the first device to do so. Quite impressive. Tonal mapping techniques optimise colours for every scene and every frame. The S10 also includes a video editor called Premier Rush in partnership with Adobe as well.
Samsung boasts the Galaxy S10’s new camera features
S10 Camera effects
Background Blur can be applied in real-time and the blur can be changed. AI algorithms and the NPU lets you recognise a large number of scenes and optimises the photo accordingly. The S10 can recognise 30 different scenes.
S10 Camera
The S10 will have a triple-camera system. There is a wide angle camera, tele-photo lens and a massive 123 degree ultra-wide lens. Variable aperture looks to be retained, as expected.
S10 fingerprint sensor
In-display Ultra-sonic fingerprint reader on the S10 is the first time for a phone. Basically Ultrasonic » Optical sensor (like the one seen on the OnePlus 6T). S10 has a “vault-like” security to prevent unauthorized access.
Galaxy S10 Display
The punch-hole display is quite visible on the S10. It was first seen on the Galaxy A8S. This phone has the Infinity O Dynamic AMOLED display which is the first in the world. Samsung says this is going to be the most colour accurate display on a mobile device. The phone is HDR 10+ ready.
