Design
At 6.7 inches - the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite is a lot of smartphone for not much outlay. . It sports a gorgeous, crystal-clear, Full HD+ Super AMOLED edge-to-edge display with super tough, Corning Gorilla Glass 5, too.

In typical Samsung fashion, the S10 Lite is a joy to use too.

- Camera - on the camera-front, the S10 Lite sports a 48-megapixel wide-angle lens, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens and five-megapixel macro lens at the back. And a single, 10-megapixel camera at the front.
- Fingerprint scanner - To maximise screen space, the S10 Lite's fingerprint scanner is embedded under the display. And it works fast too.
