what's going on guys your average consumer and we've been talking about the s10 lineup for a few weeks now but it's finally time to talk about the s10 II so in this video we're gonna go over the good and the bad but before we get started we've got to give a huge shout out to today's sponsor away now if you guys follow me on social media you know I've been travelling like crazy for the past month and during those travels we actually got our hands on the away suitcase and this thing has pretty much changed up the way we travel this suitcase has a high-quality hardshell exterior but what really changed up the way we do things is the fact that this thing offers a ton of organization I was the one who usually packs us up for long trips and she found herself really liking being able to have dedicated spots for certain items and it made it a lot easier when we got to where we were going to find exactly what we're looking for and we've been rockin with the carry-on size which is of course carry-on compliant thus the name and it's been nice not having to worry about whether or not this thing will fit in a plane or if we'll have to check it we know exactly that this thing fits and it works now organization and high quality aside what's really nice here is that this thing has some tech in it it has a built in portable charger and you guys know I love me some portable chargers this thing actually has a 10,000 million portable charger inside of it so if you got to charge your iPhone while you're waiting for your plane or maybe even charge an iPad or something you'll be able to do that here it's got two USB ports so you'll be able to charge multiple devices at once and with 10,000 milliamp hours you don't have to worry about killing this thing and so be honest I just like the way this thing pops out of the suitcase when you're ready to use it and you don't have to worry about tsa stopping you you can actually remove the portable charger send it on through and you won't have to worry about them stopping you for that and this thing of course has through 16 wheels so you can get around the airport or wherever you're going with no issues and I think also has a lifetime warranty so if something happens to this suitcase you'll be able to get in touch with them and get that taken care of so if you're looking for a new suitcase there's four different sizes to choose from multiple colors and you also get a 100 day trial so if you don't like it you can return it for a full refund no questions asked but if you guys want to check it out they have a retail store in New York it's an awesome suitcase and it's definitely worth checking out if you guys are trying to save 20 bucks on a suitcase you sort of head over to Away travel.com slash your average consumer 20 and use the coupon code your average consumer 20 at checkout but if you guys want to learn more I love course have links down below in the description but now let's talk about the Samsung Galaxy S 10 II now let's talk about the very first good thing about this phone and that's the price this thing starts off at 750 bucks and compared to the s10 and the s10 plus which are $8.99 and $9.99 that's a $250 savings or 150 $250 savings so that's actually a really nice price in a world where we're seeing a lot of thousand-dollar smartphones but what's really nice about that price is that you're very much still getting an s10 but you are missing out on a few things and that brings me to my first bad with the s10 II you are absolutely going to be missing out on a few features that you just going to see on like the s10 and s10 plus especially but we'll talk more about those missing features as we go on but before we get into all that let's talk about the next good thing and that's the form factor with the s10 II you got a much smaller design this is a 5.8 inch display so you got a smaller phone here but it is so easy to use with one hand and I just love the size that is something I think a lot of people will appreciate a lot of people really do like a smaller form factor and the ease of use is just it's just on point so I like this overall size when you got something like the s10 Plus which is a much bigger phone you start becoming cognizant of how you're using it and the fact that you got to use two hands sometimes getting to the top may be a little bit harder you got to hold it a funky way but with this it's just easy man it's just so so easy and even though it's got a smaller display it has to watch my anime on it with no problem everything still looks really good so there's really no complaints there their overall bonus of being able to use this thing one-handed it's really nice and while that's good at all I will say you do sacrifice a little bit here when it comes to the display this isn't a quad HD display there's actually a full HD plus so you're not getting those extra pixels since this is a smaller and I guess less expensive phones but I'm gonna be real with you guys you probably won't even notice the difference unless maybe you're trying to watch higher resolution content on YouTube but I will say though there is one more drawback with this display you don't get that ultrasonic fingerprint sensor built into the display instead you have it built into the power button over here on the top right side now if you're big on having the latest technology that's definitely a bad but in real life I don't think anybody's actually going to care it's a cool party trick to just you know put your finger down on the phone and open it up honestly there's a really good trade-off to having in the power button because once you turn it on boom you're right into the phone and I will say I do think it's a little bit faster than the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor so it depends on what you're really looking for if you're looking for functionality I think this is better but if you're looking for the latest tech and you want to be cool you are missing out on it built into the display now next good that we cannot ignore and this is important for anyone who's actually thinking about picking one of these up is that it's just like all the other Galaxy S tens this thing is packin a Snapdragon a 55 processor so in terms of what it's capable of it's going to be right up there with the S 10 and s 10 plus which is saying a lot since this is the budget version which is 250 bucks less than this guy not to mention you also get 128 gigs of storage and you also get a micro SD card slot so if you want to add to that you can add up to 512 gigs extra so this thing's got space for days you're really not missing out on much but that brings me to the badge and it's honestly not even that bad this thing starts with 6 gigs of ram which is nothing to scoff at but compared to something like this that starts at 8 gigs of ram it's something to know by honestly my point here is this isn't a phone that you want to look at as a li much lesser version of the other two this is something that's just as powerful although you make that small compromise with the ram although that's something that a lot of people will really even notice now one of the other good things about the s10 II is the fact that it has wireless power share and for those of you who aren't familiar with it you basically turn your phone to a wireless charging pad so if you've got something like the Samsung Galaxy buds which charge wirelessly you can just throw it right on top of this guy and it'll start charging it immediately so that is a really cool feature Peck you could even go ahead and charge another phone if you'd like although I probably wouldn't recommend it with the galaxy s 10 II only because it has less battery life than all of the other Galaxy phones so this guy right here is rocking a 3100 milliamp hour battery which is less than the s10 which has 3,400 and the s10 plus which has 4100 so it's like a thousand less but I will say though guys this has a smaller display and it's a lower resolution so it won't be that bad but when it comes to our wireless power share feature but your numbers are your numbers so you'll have a lot less to juice up other devices but if it's a small accessory like the galaxy Bud's not a big deal but that feature does get a little less cool when you've got less juice to provide other devices and I think the next good thing about the 10a that we really have to pay attention to is Samsung's camera choices so Samsung actually chose some really good camera lenses to put on this guy they put the ultra wide lens as well as the regular wide-angle lens and I am super happy with this because usually with these kind of phones we see the wide lens and the telephoto lens Samsung could've went there with this but instead they decided to keep though ultra-wide lens ways I think more people will appreciate than the telephoto cuz I mean take a look at this guys if I wanted to go ahead and let's say just take a picture of something like this I can take a picture of that but if I wanted to just get the whole table top that and boom I could just go ahead and take a picture of that so just to show you guys one more example here I can go boom to take a regular photo here's the wide and if I wanted to get a even tighter shot I can zoom in one more time and you guys can see for yourselves the quality difference here this is a zoomed in shot this is not something anybody's going to really complain about unless they're like an actual photographer or something so essentially I got all three of my shots without having to move the camera at all but without the wide-angle I'm stepping back moving back so that I can get more into the frame but when it comes to the bat we can't ignore the fact that this thing just doesn't have that telephoto lens so if you prefer to optically zoom into your photos so you don't lose any quality you're not gonna get that telephoto lens here and with the front facing camera you only get that single cut out up front so unlike with the s10 plus you don't get that depth sensing RGB camera up front so that means that when you're taking their live focus shots and you want that bokeh in the background it's all gonna be artificial basically be a fake blur so it's all based on software instead of getting that depth information from the other camera but that is the kind of trade-off you get with this guy but I'm curious does that impact your purchasing decision not having that depth sensor and that's hella photo lens I really do want to know what do you guys think down below in the comments is that something that's gonna sway you to get something like the s10 plus instead now another thing that we are missing in the back is the heart rate sensor so with the s 10 plus you'll notice that over here we've got the heart rate sensor so if you want to know what your pulse is like your heart rate is like you can go ahead and use the sensor here to scan it not something that you've got on the s10 II but I'm gonna be really honest with you guys I've never used that feature since it came out but you guys let me know is that a feature that you guys need is that something I should be making a big deal about oh there is something that I forgot to mention that is a good and a bad with this display you don't get the infinity edges that you get with something like the 10 or the 10 plus over here you got straight-up screen it doesn't spill over to the sides so if you like that infinity edge display it's not available on the 10a this is just a straight up panel but to be honest I prefer this phone without it than the one with it I'm not crazy about the infinity edge display it's cool it's nice to look at it looks futuristic after using this for some time I'm not gonna lie guys it just feels nice to have straight regular edges on the sides that's my personal opinion but for those of you who like that futuristic look of having the edges spill over to the side that's also missing on the 10e but I actually like you without it but that about wraps it up for the video guys hopefully you enjoyed it hopefully this kind of highlighted everything that's good and bad about this makes your purchasing decision a little bit easier let me know your thoughts down below in the comments then I'll catch you guys in the next one till then it's your average consumer face be the cool guy don't forget that part
