            If whole S10's family front looked like this, I'd get it right away :D. Small notch in the center, compact size and flat screen - perfect :)

              Compared to my A5 2017, it does not have water ingress protection - however the display more than makes for it - it's beautiful with almost no dead space around its edges. It's especially impressive when using fullscreen apps (maps etc...). It makes the A5 2017 look ancient.

A40 maybe follow up to the a3 2017 as it's the only compact a series phone. I to disappointed with the regression to plastic bodies and no ip68.

                        Sito, 30 Apr 2019Does the screen has Gorilla Glass?The real question is...

                        Does it scratch at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7?

                                    Shanti Dope, 30 Apr 2019You don't do the list of sunlight legibility scores anymore? The very last time I saw it was ... moreWe are retiring the screen legibility test (a.k.a. contrast ratio in bright light) as we've noticed several patterns. (1)The numbers were hard to explain to an average person (outside of the obvious more is better); (2) All phones we tested in the past couple of years were already good beyond a point where you can easily point a bad performer so this became less of a purchase deciding factor; (3) OLEDS are predictively better than LCDs but not by such a huge margin so as that matters much (4) There wasn't such a big variation inside the pool of tested OLEDs and inside the pool of tested LCDs.
                                    So we got to the point where the test didn't make sense anymore as the results became too predictable and not really important as a factor when making your purchase decision.

                                      I don't understand the battery life score. How can the s10e with same battery and much more powerful processor score better battery life. Something don't ad up. The exynos 7885 is very battery efficient like seen on a7 (2018)
