[Poll] Owners of regular Galaxy Note 10: How’s your experience been so far?

Based on recent leaks, it seems Samsung will not be making another ‘small’ Galaxy Note model to succeed the Galaxy Note 10 from last year. Well, the regular Galaxy Note 20 will still be smaller than the Note 20+, but if it does end up having a 6.7-inch screen like the leaks say it will, it won’t exactly be very compact.

In layman terms, the Galaxy S20 Ultra’s main...
