A wonderful product, it's nice to use.

Compared to the iPhone XR or Huawei P20 Pro, both smartphones shoot a little worse. The first one is a little less detailed, the second one is just ugly (you can’t leave in one night mode). Mate 20 pro shoots no better either. On the side of the Chinese, probably only autonomy and night mode (why didn't samsung make it?). BB is better on XR.
Conclusion: a balanced, high-quality smartphone, brought to mind after the S8 in terms of sound, camera, performance and ergonomics (the location of the fingerprint scanner). Nothing in particular to complain about.
I've been using it for a year and I still don't see what to change to. S10? - an awl for soap (photo opportunities are the same, wide, telephoto and a hole in the screen are not worth it), iPhone? - skuukaa, Huawei? - the bootloader is locked and it cannot be fixed, the video is worse, the photo is not better during the day. And if you think about it, then the night mode, which makes day out of night, is not needed.
* After ating the android version from 8 to 9, I advise you to do a factory reset, otherwise lags are possible.

Pros

Now, for 30 thousand. he is very good. Camera, screen, sufficient autonomy and speed. The optimal size, by today's standards, is a fairly compact smartphone for one-handed operation. Samsung Pay. The possibility of regular recording of conversations from the line, even on Android 9, but with official Indian or Thai firmware (knox does not tick). The Bixby button, which I transferred with third-party software to other functions, turned out to be very useful (unlike the regular function - in the Bixby furnace). The sound and vibration are powerful. The sound is also stereo. Real IP68. * No lags and friezes for a year.

Cons

Unlocking by face and iris is not fast in the dark and even at dusk it does not unlock. For me, this is the only major downside. Face ID works faster and in different lighting conditions on the XR and the latest Chinese, on the S9 this is not the case. Maybe he didn't like my face. Pleasant without a cover, but can easily slip out. Knox, I'm used to using root and custom, but at the same time Knox "ticks" and the SP, SH services and the protected folder stop working without crutches. If we continue to nitpick, then there is not enough in the camera, for my taste, sharpness (not detail), rendering of clouds. In the light of lanterns, it traditionally turns yellow.
