At its Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung has officially unveiled the Galaxy S10 and S10+, both offering a rear triple-camera array, alongside a budget-oriented S10e `essential` model with a dual camera unit. All three devices offer a stabilized standard wide and an ultra-wide camera; the S10e omits the tele-camera. As expected, the S10 series` display is the center of attention with a hole-punch style front-facing camera embedded in the screen in favor of the much-maligned notch.
The triple camera array comprises a standard 12MP wide-angle unit, 12MP telephoto camera, and a 16MP ultra-wide unit with a 123-degree field-of-view. The F1.5/F2.4 dual aperture feature introduced in the S9 is also offered in the S10 and S10+`s main camera. The S10+ offers a secondary front-facing RGB depth sensor to allow for blurred background selfies - the S10 and S10e offer a single front-facing camera.

The S10 cameras are equipped with added intelligent features, including a Scene Optimizer capable of recognizing 30 unique scenes, as well as suggestions for optimal compositions. New bokeh effects have been added to the traditional bokeh effect: spin, zoom and color fade.
Display sizes vary across the series: the S10e offers a 5.8` screen, the S10`s measures 6.1` and the S10+ offers a 6.4` display. Each is an AMOLED display supporting HDR10+ video playback, and uses dynamic tone mapping to optimize brightness levels on the fly. Samsung has improved what was already a very color accurate display - the S10 can display 16 million colors with 100% color volume. It offers up to 1200 nits peak brightness.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 will start at $900; the S10+ at $1000 and the S10e at $750.
