If you prioritize camera versatility and want a more modern design, the Samsung Galaxy A25 offers more cameras which may result in a wider range of photography options, though the overall camera performance is poorer compared to the Note10+. The A25 also has a higher refresh rate for smoother visuals, but this may come at the cost of battery life. The Galaxy Note10+, despite being older, offers a stylus for productivity tasks, better overall video capabilities, and superior build quality with its glass back. The Note10+ also has a significantly higher resolution screen, which provides sharper images. Both phones have OLED screens and similar battery life, with the A25 slightly edging ahead. Keep in mind the Note10+ lacks a high refresh rate and some modern features like 5G connectivity, which the A25 supports. Give Feedback

WIRED
Lauren Goode | August 2019
"It is difficult to drain the 4300-mAh battery on the Samsung Galaxy Note10+. I tried. I used it over the weekend, and I didn’t have to recharge it once between Friday afternoon and Sunday evening. It’s a shiny spectacle of a phone, a kind of playground for Samsung, where the company can flex its acrobatic skills."
