Galaxy S10+ vs. the competition: The cameras are just the beginning

The shooting setup is impressive, but there's plenty of other "wow" features in this 6.4-inch handset.

Check out the table below to see how the S10+ stands up against its closest competition like the Pixel 3XL and iPhone XS Max. And don't forget to check back in a few weeks for our full review of the S10 and S10+, when we'll look at more than just the numbers.
