SAM Galaxy S10 Smartphone SM G973F, 4G, International Version (No US Warranty), 128GB 8GB RAM, Prism Black - Unlocked

Good battery life, a bit fragile but all in all it was a solid phone.

Satisfied

Open box item but was in new condition. Phone worked perfectly for the European user I bought this for. Any GSM phone would likely have worked but I've had US phones break in Europe that can't be fixed because some parts inside the phone itself are dissimilar from the US counterpart phone and thus not compatible with the parts European cell phone repair shops have access to. If you're buying a phone in the US for someone who lives in Europe, best to buy the international version.

I absolutely love this phone, the camera takes such amazing photographs!!! Everyone is amazed and gives compliments on the pics. I am now the designated photographer whenever I meet up with friends or family because everyone wants to take pictures only on my phone! The battery life is great, charges very quickly and lasts for a whole day before having to charge again. My fiance has had Apple iphones for most of his life, but he now wants to buy this same phone after seeing it from me! I highly recommend, great purchase for a great value!

The mike on my phone has never worked on whatsapp calls or zoom meetings. I have to use the earplugs/mike that came with the phone in order to utilise these apps. There's also a long initial delay in the receiver's being able to hear me speak on a phone call. My dad has the same phone, but his model works fine. Go figure.

I purchased this phone in July 2023. I gradually realized that it seemed to have a microphone issue. When I need to make or receive phone calls, I have to use headphones or press the speaker button so that I can be heard. I can not have sensitive work calls on speaker phone, while in public. On the occasions I have a conversation on speaker, there are noisy interferences heard in the background. The seller was contacted around a month after the purchase. This was the reply: "Even though the phone is new, it is still old. The S10 has not been manufactured since 2020." Now the battery life doesn't last long. They offered a warranty card, which I received. I contacted the seller to return the phone to the company, and I was told that I have to go through the warranty company for further directions. When I enter the warranty details online as instructed, I am told that the warranty number is invalid. As the phone is 3 years old, I would understand outdated apps, not faulty basic functions for calling. This company has not been helpful in resolving the issue. I would not recommend it.

A really awesome and affordable phone for 2020. I also purchased the Prism Green colour which looks beautiful! Everything works as I've seen on YouTube videos. I really like the fingerprint sensor. The S10 is just such a near perfect phone (I'm upgrading from the Xperia XZ) and I don't think it's necessary to get the S10+ or the S20. The S10 just seems like the best phone to get in 2020.

This phone is the International version. Still it is $250 less than if you buy from Verizon. It DOES WORK with Verizon. I just put my SIM card in it and I was connected. It's very fast. Battery duration is not fantastic if you play lots of video games for hours. Yet it will last the day.
