On Wednesday 20th February, Samsung unveiled several new devices at their Unpacked 2019 event. We're please to confirm the new range of Samsung Galaxy S10 devices - including the Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus - are all available to purchase now on O2.
What tariffs is it on?
With O2 Custom Plans, we put that in your hands - every part of it. Choose your own upfront cost, Device Plan length and data allowance. Want to pay more and pay off the device in a short period? You can go to as little as 3 months. Want to pay less, over a longer period? You can go up to 36 months to spread the cost.
What are the specs?
With up to 5 cameras with the S10 Plus, and 3 separate S10 devices, there's too much to list but you can find the full official spec sheet right here.

Thanks @jonsie, very interesting read. He mentioned the phone is slippery and should be in a case. Cases already ordered. My concern is with shaky hands I could drop it. So for me a case is essential for all my phones.

Pre-order now and get it in June after the customers who didn't pre-order get it straight away, classic.

@mieinhull1969 are you talking about the chap who recently posted that he'd heard from DHL that his phone had been shipped? What makes you think he didn't pre-order, if you are. How would he be getting the phone if he hadn't pre-ordered as it's not actually released until Friday.
Sorry, but I don't understand what you're referring to?

Usually happens with iphones when customers who don't preorder sometimes get phones before those who do. I'm pretty sure there is no actual pecking order, so to speak. Hence the innumerable posts about people stating time, date, model and colour and god knows what else.

No you aren't missing anything. I'm just trying to describe the scenario that @mieinhull1969 is getting at?
