s-pen is also the major value-added attachment which makes the note 10 more expensive. Note 10+ stylus can be a useful tool if you really want to involve it in your daily life. You can draw, doodle, annotate, and use handwriting-to-text recognition for notes and documents. Using the S Pen at a distance, you can trigger functions in apps with a press of the button or with dedicated gestures.
Whether that's appealing as a feature is highly dependent on how you use your phone every day, but it's something that the Galaxy S10+or any other high-end smartphone just can't replicate.
If you're already a Note fan you probably won't care that it has a price tag around $1,100
But if you're drawn to the Note 10+ for its size and capabilities, regardless of whether it has the stylus, then you should strongly consider the Galaxy S10+ instead. It's functionally the same as the Note 10+ — you just get a slightly smaller screen, smaller battery and will have to wait for a couple of new software features to arrive in a later update. But in return, you get a headphone jack — and you'll pay about $250 less for the phone. That makes the Galaxy S10+ an incredible value for anyone who doesn't rely on the S Pen.
