Video options and quality are all excellent, better than Apple's iPhones. The rear camera can record 4K video at 60 frames per second; the front camera can do it at 30. You can record in hyperlapse, regular speed, slow-mo, or up to 960fps super-slow-mo (that last one for 0.4 seconds). You can get your video stabilized or super-stabilized. And all that comes through in HDR10+. Of course, you can also choose between three lenses to frame your scenes. It's the widest variety of options I've seen on a video-recording phone in the US. So far, Vodafone has 11 5G smartphones on offer, with the Samsung Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 Plus, Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy Fold, Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G, Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus 5G, Samsung Galaxy A90 5G and Huawei P40 Pro all available to buy now. Three's 5G collection includes the OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, Huawei Mate Xs, Huawei P40 Pro, Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra, Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S20, Samsung Galaxy A90 5G and the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G. The one major improvement for stills is the wide-angle camera, which at 123 degrees is noticeably wider than LG's current 107-degree wide-angle units. Wide-angle photography is terrific: It helps you capture scenes and groups of people that otherwise wouldn't fit. My wife has an LG G7, and she uses wide angle a ton. Samsung doesn't have LG's mode that takes the same shot with all three lenses and lets you choose the best framing afterwards, though. For more, head over to our wide-angle camera comparison. Predictably, the results are fantastic. Colour rendition is practically perfect and the cameras manage to strike the right balance of noise suppression and detail capture. Video is also top-notch with buttery-smooth 4K resolution capture at 60fps.

EE has 12 5G smartphones for you to choose from at the moment. The cheapest option is the Samsung Galaxy A90 5G, while the priciest - by quite a distance - is the foldable Samsung Galaxy Fold 5G. EE's 5G cities so far are: London, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Birmingham, Belfast, Manchester, Cardiff, Bath, Bristol, Chelmsford, Coventry, Leicester, Liverpool, Oxford, Plymouth, Glasgow, Hull, Leeds, Lichfield, Lisburn, Newcastle, Nottingham, Salford, Sheffield, Stirling Sunderland, Wakefield and Wolverhampton.

The best 5G phone around, but still a hard sell

The default resolution is Full HD+, but you can crank it to QHD+ and it's pin sharp, with HDR10+ for superior contrast and color. That's an important perk if you’re a movie-watcher on your phone – an idea which isn’t so crazy its size. However, EE's 5G coverage does not reach all areas of every city. We've tested it out in London, and found that it's not consistent. In areas where 5G is available though, we're consistently getting speeds of around 200Mbps (versus around 15-20Mbps on 4G devices). So the fingerprint sensor isn't a deal breaker, but it also isn't necessarily a usability advance. Processor, Software, and Performance We got our hands on the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G on launch day and have been testing out the speed of EE's shiny new network.

(Image Credit: TechRadar) In-screen fingerprint sensor In real-life use at MWC19 in Barcelona, it seemed like I never needed to recharge it. The Galaxy S10+ would regularly go two days and still have a decent charge. Can you chalk that up to the superior regenerative powers of Spanish mobile networks? Maybe. Samsung says it comes down to software: More intelligent management of what processes are running, combined with what DisplayMate says is a more power-efficient screen, makes for an ideal battery situation. The battery fast-charges with both wired and wireless connections, although to fast-charge wirelessly it needs an appropriate fast-charging wireless pad. Along with the X24, the entire S10 line represents some of the first phones to feature Wi-Fi 6, thanks to a new Wi-Fi chip from Broadcom. This can be a big deal: Wi-Fi 6, when paired with a Wi-Fi 6-compatible router, will be able to blow through some of the congestion on the popular 2.4GHz Wi-Fi band, offering much clearer connections and better speed in crowded areas. That said, we don't yet have a Wi-Fi 6 router to test this; they'll become more popular as the year goes on.The Galaxy S10+ has a 6.4-inch, 3,040-by-1,440-pixel Dynamic AMOLED screen that's been rated as the best smartphone display available by Ray Soneira at DisplayMate Labs. According to Soneira's comprehensive tests, the screen is amazingly bright, colorful, and power-efficient, delivering the best handheld experience possible. Its octacore chips are paired with 8GB of RAM (12GB in the Ultimate Performance Edition) to provide plenty of grunt. In fact, with a Geekbench multi-score of 11,002, it's the fastest Android phone we've ever tested, though the Exynos chip scored a slightly lower 10,385 and the camera app seems a tad slower. And, of course, we have 5G coming around the corner. The upcoming Galaxy S10 5G will be an early adopter phone with limited network support. But next year's Galaxy S11 will likely be based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865, a 5G integrated chipset with support for both high-speed and broad-coverage 5G networks. That's the kind of shift that happens once every decade, not every year. As it uses O2, its coverage should be the same, meaning the following 75 places now: Aberdeen, Ashford, Banstead, Basildon, Belfast, Birmingham, Blaydon, Bradford, Bridge of Don, Brighton, Bristol, Cardiff, Chatham, Chesterfield, Coventry, Dartford, Derby, Dewsbury, Dundee, Dyce, Eastbourne, Edinburgh, Esher, Gateshead, Gillingham, Glasgow, Grays, Hemel Hempstead, Huddersfield, Hull, Jarrow, Leeds, Leicester, Lincoln, Lisburn, Liverpool, London, Lowestoft, Luton, Manchester, Mansfield, Middlesbrough, Morley, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Newtownabbey, North Shields, Northampton, Norwich, Nottingham, Orpington, Oxford, Peterborough, Plymouth, Rainham, Redhill, Rotherham, Sheffield, Slough, Staines, South Shields, Stoke-on-Trent, Sunbury, Sunderland, Thundersley, Tynemouth, Warrington, Washington, Weybridge, Windsor, Worthing and York. The hole in this 'punch-hole' display is extra-large, as Samsung dropped in two front cameras to take better portrait selfies than the single-lens Galaxy S10 and S10e front cameras.Good news, we’ve not found it too distracting.

Let's start by comparing it with the Galaxy S9+, which is about the same size as the S10+. Yes, the S10+ offers incremental improvements in the screen, battery life, modem, processor, and Wi-Fi performance. But I think you'll be just as happy with the S9+, because other than battery life, I wasn't able to find big differences in lived experiences, as opposed to lab testing. Sold? To complicate your buying decision, the Galaxy S10 5G is an even bigger and better S10 phone, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus is even more premium as a Samsung smartphone, and if you've got all the money in the world, the foldable Samsung Galaxy Fold is also available to buy – to say nothing of the S20 line and its incremental imrpovements.As far as I could tell, the 3D depth-sensing unit doesn’t seem to add much. Its implementations are few and far between at the moment – you can use the AR feature to help measure certain items in the real world, but that’s about it. Portrait pictures between both phones looked pretty much identical, too. Aside from the added 3D depth-sensing lens, the Galaxy S10 5G’s photographic capabilities also remain largely unchanged. The rear camera array is comprised of a 12-megapixel unit with dual-aperture (f/1.5 or f/2.4), a 12-megapixel, f/2.4 2x telephoto zoom camera and a new ultra-wide-angle 16-megapixel, f/2.2 camera. The Galaxy S10+'s Vivid display mode is similar to the Note 9's Adaptive, and the Note 9's Cinema display mode seems a little more accurate than the S10+'s Natural. Both phones are a bit more color accurate than the iPhone XS Max with TrueTone on. Fingerprint Sensor The dual front and multiple rear cameras all allow for hardware bokeh, which is better than the software bokeh that you get on single-camera phones. It's better at identifying the edges of objects, like flyaway hairs, that can otherwise mar the portrait effect. Of the new Galaxies, only the S10+ has the secondary front camera for hardware bokeh.
