Samsung just announced its budget phones Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note 10 Lite to take on Apple’s cheap iPhone

Ahead of CES 2020, Samsung just announced its budget versions of its 2019 flagship phones before Apple’s expected cheap iPhone comes out. However, the company did not provide pricing or release date yet. After many days of rumors have been swirling around, Samsung finally unveiled a pair of budget phones to build up the hype, Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note 10 Lite, days before its CES 2020 keynote in Las Vegas.

“The Galaxy S and Galaxy Note devices have met consumer wants and demands around the world. These devices represent our continuous effort to deliver industry leading innovations, from performance and power to intelligence and services,” said DJ Koh, President and CEO of IT & Mobile Communications Division, Samsung Electronics. “The Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite will introduce those distinct key premium features that make up a Galaxy S and Galaxy Note experience.”

Each device includes 6.7-inch Super AMOLED Infinity-O displays with 2400×1080 resolution, 32MP front-facing cameras, 6GB or 8GB of RAM with 128GB internal storage and 4,500mAh batteries. Both phones will also have octa-core processors, but Samsung did not say if they are powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon platform or its own Exynos silicon.

The Galaxy Note 10 Lite has a larger 6.7-inch display compared to the 6.3-inch screen on the regular Note 10, and it’s smaller and not as sharp as the high-end Galaxy Note 10+, which has a 6.8-inch display. It also has three cameras, including an ultra-wide angle lens for including more people inside a single shot, a regular wide angle and a telephoto zoom lens. It also has a larger battery.

The Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite will give even more people access to key premium Galaxy features:

• Uninterrupted Display: Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite offer edge-to-edge Infinity-O displays. With a 6.7-inch screen size, the display provides an expansive and immersive experience, allowing you to fully enjoy and get lost in your favorite multimedia content.
• Larger and Long-Lasting Battery: The Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite are packed with a large 4,500mAh battery and super-fast charging capabilities, so you can stay connected longer and spend more time doing the things you love.
• Services and Security: The Galaxy S10 Lite and Galaxy Note10 Lite come with Samsung’s ecosystem of apps and services, including Bixby, Samsung Pay and Samsung Health. As you would expect, these Galaxy Lite devices are also protected with defense-grade security platform Samsung Knox.
