New case render offers another look at the Galaxy S10 lineup

A new case render has surfaced online today, offering another look at the Galaxy S10 lineup. Quite a few of these renders are floating around already so add this one to the list as well. We’re likely going to see more of these in the days leading up to the launch.

As many of you will be aware, Samsung is going to release three variants of the Galaxy S10. The render shows off the Galaxy S10 E or Lite, Galaxy S10 and the Galaxy S10+. There’s also going to be a fourth variant with a 6.7-inch display and 5G. It will be called the Galaxy S10 X.

Galaxy S10 lineup visualized in case render

The design cues in this case render are not all that different from what we have already seen. The 5.8-inch Galaxy S10 model will have a flat display and a dual rear camera. The 6.1-inch Galaxy S10 and 6.4-inch Galaxy S10+ both have curved displays and a triple rear camera. The latter also has a dual camera on the front.

All three handsets will have an Infinity-O display. It places the front camera in a cutout within the active display area. The 5.8-inch model will have a side-mounted fingerprint sensor while the other two models have an in-display sensor. The case render does show a larger cutout for the power button on this model compared to the other ones.

Expect more renders of the Galaxy S10 lineup to surface in the coming days. Samsung has confirmed that it will unveil the Galaxy S10 on February 20. It will release the handsets in March. The 5G variant will only be offered in select markets such as the United States and South Korea.

5G Samsung Galaxy S10 model could have 256GB base storage

The 5G variant of the Galaxy S10 (rumored to be called the Galaxy S10 X) will have a minimum of 256GB storage when it launches later this year, according to our sources. The 5G model has been rumored to have some killer specs, such as a 6.7-inch display, up to four rear cameras, and a 5,000 mAh battery, all of which will put it a notch (no pun intended) above even the Galaxy S10+. And since Samsung is already offering mainstream flagships and even the latest mid-range device with 128GB of storage, 256GB of base storage for the 5G Galaxy S10 would make sense.

This also means the Galaxy S10 X could have a minimum of 8GB of RAM, although that’s not something we can confirm at the moment. The same goes for the price tag. All those features will naturally demand quite a premium, and rumors suggest the Galaxy S10 X could be priced as high as $1,700. That’s in the territory of Samsung’s upcoming foldable smartphone, and if true, it could make the 5G variant of the Galaxy S10 prohibitively expensive for most consumers.

But gaining access to a niche new technology before everyone else is always going to be a costly affair, so hopefully carriers in the US and South Korea will help soften the blow by offering low-cost subsidies and installment plans. Speaking of carriers, we have also been told that T-Mobile and Sprint will get the silver variant of the device in the US. The only other color option for the 5G variant known at this point is black, but we can’t say whether different carriers will have dibs on a particular color or if both options will be available across all carriers.
