This year's S10e is Samsung's rare small screen youth version of the market strategy. Compared with S10+and S10, S10e lacks a camera. The fingerprint under the screen has been changed to the side fingerprint, and the screen resolution is only FHD+, but the color is more abundant. There are three colors in total: Charcoal Black, Haoyu White, and Qinning Yellow. Is Samsung trying to benchmark the iPhone XR?

appearance
The front adopts a 5.8 inch FHD+Dynamic AMOLED perforated screen, the camera is located in the upper right corner of the screen, and the earpiece is integrated on the top.
The design of Note9 is continued on the back, with horizontal dual camera, 1200W pixel main camera on the left, 1600W pixel super wide angle on the right, single fill light, and slightly raised camera module.
The SIM card slot is located on the top of the body, and is designed with or card slot, which can expand the TF card; There are volume keys and Bixby keys on the left side of the fuselage; The right side is the power button, integrated with fingerprint identification; 3.5mm headphone hole at the bottom USB-C、 For microphone and speaker, this generation of Samsung still continues the previous asymmetric design. All openings at the bottom are not in a straight line. The top earpiece and the bottom speaker form a dual speaker, which supports IP68 dust and water resistance.
The handle of the whole machine is excellent. One hand control is not a problem at all. The drawback is that the excessive work from the back cover to the middle frame is not very good. I can feel a clear cutting feel when I hold it.
screen
Samsung S10e is equipped with 5.8 inch Dynamic AMOLED of FHD+level and supports HDR10+high dynamic range images. This S10e screen mode has only two options, namely bright and natural. In bright mode, you can manually adjust the color temperature, and adjust R G、B。
distinct
The color temperature is 7001K, the color coverage is excellent, covering the entire P3 color gamut, and the color accuracy and grayscale performance are relatively ordinary.
natural
The color temperature is 6042K, the color coverage is significantly reduced compared with the bright mode, and the color accuracy and gray scale are improved, but the performance is still not very good.
The manual maximum brightness is 400 nit, the full white excitation brightness is 735 nit, and the local excitation brightness is 1030 nit, which is undoubtedly the top brightness performance. This brightness can properly handle all scenes. In general, the S10e screen performance is medium to high, with perfect color gamut coverage and high brightness, but the color accuracy and grayscale performance are relatively ordinary.
performance
The Samsung S10e national travel version uses Snapdragon 855 SoC. We have analyzed the specific performance of this chip in previous articles, and interested students can check《 Detailed Explanation of Dragon 855 (Part 1) 》And《 Detailed Explanation of Dragon 855 (Part 2) 》。 6GB LPRRD4x 2133MHz memory, 128GB UFS2.1 flash memory. Now let's compare Xiaomi 9 and iQOO, both of which are Snapdragon 855.

In terms of running points, S10e plays normally, GPU performance is relatively eye-catching, and all running points are in the first place, leading little. In addition, it can be regarded as the average level of Snapdragon 855. There is no problem in the running score. Let's see the actual measurement of the game.
Game measurement
Or ancestral games: NBA 2K19 and Crash 3.
NBA 2K19
First, look at the game performance of the NBA. The average is 51FPS, and the average fluctuation is 3.91FPS, while Xiaomi 9 has a full frame.
Looking at the SoC scheduling, we can see that Samsung and Xiaomi are two completely different scheduling methods. Samsung gives priority to the load of large cores, and the large cores in the game have always kept a high operating frequency. Xiaomi gives priority to the load of medium cores, and the large cores are basically fishing.
Collapse 3
In the 15 minute open world, S10e has an average of 56 FPS, with an average fluctuation of 3.81 FPS, which is slightly better than Xiaomi 9's average of 56 FPS and 6.24 FPS.
Let's take a look at the scheduling on both sides. Similar to the NBA, Samsung gives priority to loading large cores, and all core frequencies are greater than 1GHz, which belongs to a more radical type. Xiaomi's side is relatively counseling, and large cores are basically on the edge of low frequencies.
Samsung's scheduling has advantages for games with high performance requirements, but this scheduling method can not play its full potential on S10e, because the biggest problem it brings is that the heat is huge, and the frame is hot when the load is high, while the S10e body is relatively small and the heat dissipation is poor, resulting in not fully playing the full strength of Snapdragon 855. The S10+with larger body and stronger heat dissipation will be more suitable for this scheduling method, and the game performance should be improved. Please look forward to our S10+evaluation.

Turn on the camera default mode to start taking pictures. Samsung turns on HDR and scene optimizer by default, and iPhone turns on automatic HDR by default.
day

Sample 2
Samsung photos have high saturation and warmer white balance when there is sufficient light in the daytime. At first glance, the appearance is far from that of iPhone. The color of photos is very pleasing.

Sample 6
It can be seen that in the daytime, Samsung's dynamic range is higher than Apple's, the exposure of most photos is higher than Apple's, and the highlight suppression is also excellent. Sample 6 Apple's sky has been completely exposed, and Samsung can also see the sky and clouds. But sometimes, they also exert too much force, like in sample 3. The highlight is almost too exposed, which looks unnatural.

The analytical power of the iPhone is stronger than that of Samsung in terms of both architectural lines and tree textures. Samsung has a heavy sense of smudging and lost some details.
To sum up, in the daytime, Samsung takes a flamboyant style. The saturation of each group of photos is higher than that of the iPhone. The dynamic range is excellent, and the analytical power is slightly weaker than that of the iPhone. I prefer the shooting style of Samsung, which is not too bright, and every picture is just right.

At night, the appearance of the two machines is also different. Samsung's highlight is red, with high saturation, and the iPhone is relatively flat.

When you zoom in to see the details, Samsung's adjustment style is obvious. It focuses on the highlight details. In order to keep the highlight details in the overall low exposure, the highlight details hang on the iPhone, while the iPhone pays more attention to the overall exposure. Sure enough, the highlight is severely overexposed, but the dark side is better than Samsung.

Samsung's image purity is relatively good, but the disadvantage is that it sacrifices details, and the image is heavily smeared. The resolution at night is not as good as that of iPhone.
To sum up, Samsung is undoubtedly trying to please the eyeballs, and its imaging quality is excellent. In the daytime, it shows a strong tolerance and hair color tendency, which is higher than that of iPhone.
It still maintains a very high level at night, has the characteristics of daytime, high saturation, and performs well in highlight processing and noise reduction. The comprehensive photography level of S10e is better than that of XR. After all, there is an ultra wide angle sub camera on S10e, no matter in terms of imaging quality or playing method.
Super wide performance on S10e
Dominant equivalent 26mm
Ultra wide angle equivalent 13mm
The visual shock effect brought by the 13mm focal section is very obvious, with very obvious line bending at the edge and the reduction of analytical power.
Finally, let's talk about the experience of taking photos
Samsung's photographing interface has various important functions at a glance. It has popular scene recognition at present. Samsung is called a scene optimizer. It will judge different scenes according to the subjects and optimize them accordingly. All of these functions are available, and the photographing experience is first-class.
Charging and endurance
With 3100mAh battery, let's take a look Love to play computer games Two hour endurance test:
After a two-hour endurance test, the remaining power is 80%, which is relatively average. The game consumes more power. It is inevitable for heavy users to recharge twice a day. Samsung said that although my battery is small, it can be used quickly.
Starting from 5%, Lenovo lipstick PD fast charging kit is used for charging. It takes 13 minutes in an hour to fully charge, and the maximum power is only about 14W. The level of S10e fast charging continues to stay the same. Even the iPhone with 10000 years of environmental protection fast charging plus the PD fast charging can get a peak power of 20W. It is conceivable how much the Note7 event affected Samsung that year.
experience
speaker
First of all, praise the dual speakers of S10e, which support Dolby Panorama sound. The volume is large, the sound is transparent, and there is a three-dimensional sense. It is not inferior to the dual speakers of iPhone. It should be noted that the phone will feel obvious vibration when the volume is high.
WiFi
S10e supports a maximum WiFi rate of 1083Mbps, and the theoretical LAN download speed is 20% faster than most current flagship models of 866Mbps. Of course, this is the theoretical value. In practice, you may not be able to use all the performance.
Power fingerprint two in one button
Next, I want to criticize the power fingerprint two in one button. First, the fingerprint is not very easy to use. The recognition area is small and the recognition rate is low. The success rate of unlocking in normal posture is OK. As long as your hand is slightly crooked, the unlocking is basically failed.
In addition, the feedback of the power button is different from the feedback of the volume button. The power button is recessed in the middle box. When taking screenshots, you often press the volume button first and then the power button, which causes the volume bar to appear in many screenshots. It's also because the power key is concave, and I don't have enough sense of existence. I used the Bixby button as the power key several times~
summary
advantage:
Few small screen mobile phones. In the real sense, the flagship is higher than the small screen of a friend.
Flagship configuration. Except for the screen, camera and fingerprint, there is little difference between S10 and others. S10 has all the necessary functions.
Disadvantages:
Low fast charging power. The fast charging level is still at the QC2.0 level a few years ago, and the peak power is only 14W.
Fingerprint unlocking is difficult to use. The recognition area is small, and the success rate of unlocking is not high.
After reading the evaluation, you should have a general understanding of S10e. If you know whether to buy it or not, I will not do shopping guide. The above is all the content of this Samsung S10e evaluation. Thank you for watching the whole process.
