Samsung announced some new versions of the Galaxy Note 10 series in August 2019 and the Note 10 is the most affordable one starting at $949.
Galaxy Note10 Features
Despite being the cheaper version, the Note 10 is still a powerhouse with a 6.3-inch Dynamic AMOLED+ display with full HD+ resolution and HDR10+ certification, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of UFS 3.0 storage, and a 3,500mAh battery. It is packed with new features like the infinity-O display, an on-screen ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, a triple rear camera setup, new S Pen tricks, 25W fast charging, and more seamless desktop experience.
The Note 10 is powered by either the Snapdragon 855 or Exynos 9825 SoC, depending on the market. As compared to the processor on Galaxy S10, the Note 10 has the same processor for users in North America; However, users in many other countries will receive upgrade from the Exynos 9820 to Exynos 9825. The new Samsung’s Exynos processor doesn’t offer much in terms of performance but the 7nm EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography) process will bring improved power efficiency.
Samsung Galaxy Note10 Model Numbers
As seen in other Samsung phones, the Galaxy Note 10 comes in many model numbers for different countries/regions. All of them start with SM-N970, so you can find some model numbers like SM-N970F, SM-N970F/DS, SM-N970U, SM-N970U1, SM-N970W, SM-N9700/DS, or SM-N970N. Apart from the difference in processors, they also differ in cellular bands. Therefore, you should check carefully, especially when you don’t buy the phone from an official store.

Hi!
According to pcmag in the US “Verizon will have an early exclusive on the Note 10+ 5G. Samsung confirmed that Verizon’s model will use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset with the older X50 modem, the same one that’s in the Galaxy S10 5G”
I couldn’t find any info about the UK model [SM-N976BZSABTU]
Is there going to be the new X55 modem?
