OK, this has to be one of our favorite deals for smartphones this Cyber Monday (obviously after Black Friday deals). The 256 GB Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and 256 GB Note 10 Plus are both $400 off from Best Buy right now. There are also quite a few iPhone deals as well if you’re more about that iOS, but many of them are ending tonight.

These two gorgeous devices represent two of the best phones you can get in 2019. With a triple-camera setup in the Note 10 and a quadruple in the case of the Note 10 Plus, including its ToF sensor, Samsung’s strong photography prowess shows through. They’re certain contenders for best camera phone of 2019. Both of which sport a telephoto, regular, and wide-angle lens for great versatility and quality in your shots.

Of course, they’re more than just great camera phones. With some of the best internals you can get in an Android phone, the Note 10 and Note 10 Plus are quick with multitasking, fluid with gaming, and achieve daylong battery life. They’re replete with power and storage, starting at 256 GB internal memory, 8 GB of RAM in the Note 10 and 12 GB RAM in the Note 10 Plus, and the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processors. Not to mention that they have some of the most gorgeous screens we’ve laid eyes on. The super-thing bezels, and all-screen design will have you lost in the infinity pool that is the screen.

Lest we forget the S Pen, which not only adds the feature of its namesake — the ability to create handwritten notes on your phone — but also now transcribes them for you and can send them off to Microsoft Word documents if you’d like. All of this is in addition to the new gestures and functions added to control music playback, the camera, and even a PowerPoint presentation, all with your S Pen.

The Samsung Cyber Monday sale is spread across more than just smartphones. We’ve already found big discounts on Samsung monitors, 4K TVs, and Samsung Galaxy Active 2 smartwatches. Considering it’s not even Monday yet, be sure to keep an eye out for more deals as they go live.

Camera shootout: Samsung Galaxy S22 vs. OnePlus 10 Pro
Samsung Galaxy S22 and OnePlus 10 Pro

The OnePlus 10 Pro is turning heads with its brave new design, top-tier specifications, and upgraded camera hardware. Samsung, on the other hand, has armed the Galaxy S22 with a bigger primary camera without paying much attention to its outer garb. The OnePlus offering wants to make a splash as the company’s best phone on the market, while the Galaxy S22 is Samsung’s entry-level flagship, with far modest camera hardware compared to its Ultra sibling. But they are both similarly priced. Wondering how the two would fare in a camera shootout? Read on to find out.
Camera specs
Both the phones offer a triple-camera setup in the familiar wide + ultrawide + telephoto configuration. The Galaxy S22 is equipped with a 50-megapixel (1.0 micrometer, 85-degree field of view [FOV] F1.8 lens, 1/1.56-inch sensor, optical image stabilization) primary shooter, paired with a 12-megapixel ultrawide-angle snapper (1.4 micrometer, 120-degree FOV, F2.2 lens, 1/2.55-inch sensor), and a 10-megapixel telephoto camera (1.0 micrometer, 36-degree FOV, 1/3.94-inch image sensor) with 3x optical zoom output and 30x hybrid zoom range. Selfie duties are handled by a 10-megapixel (1.22 micrometer, 80-degree FOV, F2.2 lens, 1/3.24-inch sensor) camera.

The OnePlus 10 Pro has beefier imaging hardware to offer. It packs a 48-megapixel (1/1.43-inch sensor, 1.12 micrometer, F1.8 lens, optical image stabilization) main camera, a 50-megapixel ultrawide-angle (1/2.76-inch sensor, 150-degree FOV) shooter, and an 8-megapixel telephoto (F2.4 lens, 1.0 micrometer, optical image stabilization) camera with 3.3x optical zoom range. On the front is an updated 32-megapixel camera with electronic image stabilization.
Daylight photos
On their own, both the phones feature a very capable primary camera, but the Galaxy S22 edges its OnePlus rival in some key areas. The Samsung Galaxy S22 goes for a more saturated look in daylight photos by default and produces a better contrast than the OnePlus 10 Pro’s main camera, which struggles with white balance under natural light. Both the phones produce terrific photos on their own, but the Galaxy S22’s camera algorithms race ahead when it comes to retaining surface textures. There is also less noise in pictures produced by the Galaxy S22.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 isn’t charging as fast as it should
Galaxy S22 Plus charging port.

The Galaxy S22 series comes with two types of chargers, 25-watt adapters for the base S22 model and 45 watts for the S22+ and the S22 Ultra. However, tests with both adapters seem to indicate that they don't really make a difference to overall charging time.

When comparing the time it takes to reach a full charge with all models in the S22 line, it becomes apparent that spending the extra cash on a 45W adapter is a complete waste as all devices take the same amount of time, according to tests done by GSMArena.
