Hi guys,
Rumour has it that Samsung will be releasing the next Galaxy soon... Are you looking forward to this one?
News and tech sites are already speculating about what its features could be. Until we know about it in more detail from the Samsung Unpacked event, which takes place on 20th February, see below some of the impressive rumours we've seen so far about the Samsung Galaxy S10 range!
Let us know what other cool things you've read about it so far, and what you think of these potential features? Is there anything specific you're really looking forward to?

Apparently three new releases that I would like but cannot afford

@Marjo I'll be looking at the S10+ as I'm due to upgrade in April. I'll be particularly interested to see if there's an increase in storage capacity up from 64gb which is what the S8+ has.
As I don't take lots of pictures, the 3 cameras won't be of interest. Also want to see if they keep the headphone jack as there are rumours they may go the Apple route and get rid of it. That would be a deal breaker for me, as I listen to a lot of music through my earpods.
Anyway, very excited to see what the latest Galaxy is like and have already signed up for details direct from Samsung the day of the launch. Can't wait 🤩

Just rang customer service to check when I could upgrade, expecting to be told end April. Pleasantly surprised to learn I can upgrade today, without penalty. Fantastic just in time for the new Galaxy

@Cleoriff Not sure yet what exact colours there will be... but I'd sure love purple too! In the additional links above (thank you @jonsie!) I saw some mentions of a couple of additional colours to the previous rumoured green and black. I though the "pearl variant" white colour sounded interesting. We will see the confirmed colours after the launch event on the 20th Feb for sure.
@Glory1 That's very exciting and good timing for your upgrade too! Would the increased storage capacity be for your music, films and games if not for photos? I've found that on my phone the photos take the most of the space as I use the camera a lot, almost every day.

On the Techradar link given by @jonsie it states it's 128GB. Also probable price £869. for the S10. (the S10 plus about £100 more)

Ah I saw the prices @Cleoriff but missed the storage capacity. 128gb is perfect.

Just for my games and music @Marjo, I don't download films, I stream them. Same with TV shows. I can appreciate a lot of people have photos on their phone but as I say I don't take photos with my phone, so the cameras will be lost on me. Also pleased to see there will be a headphone jack, though there's still the rumour that will be lost at some point. I hope that rumour is wrong!
