As you can see, the main differences between the Note 10 Lite and S10 Lite are the chipsets and the camera setup. The latter boils down to a preference which one you’d use more – a macro lens or a telephoto camera, as both have ultrawide lenses. These are pretty much the only segways between the two, save for the S-Pen, of course, and the slightly thicker bezels on the Note model.
Galaxy Note 10 Lite and S10 Lite prices and release date
For reference, the premium Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10+ retailed at €949 and €1,209, respectively, when sales began. The standard Galaxy S10, on the other hand, has been permanently discounted down to €779 and the compact Galaxy S10e now costs €599.
This would make the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite at its current €679.99 (~$761) price a tougher sell when it launches in mid-January alongside the Galaxy Note 10 Lite. It’s initially going to be available in India and other Asian markets, where it’ll be known as the Galaxy A91, before expanding to Europe and potentially the United States. Once shipments commence, the Galaxy S10 Lite is going to be available in black, white, and blue.
