Pictures are sharp, free from that lurid sharpening effect previously so common on Samsung phones, even if you zoom in. Where the S10 Plus impresses, though, is for detail. In comparison, shots here lack the punchy contrast and excellent dynamic range of those cameras, leaving results that feel a little flat. While it takes clear, colourful pictures in good lighting, it feels little improved from the Galaxy S9’s unit – a camera that was already some way off those featured in the Pixel 3 and Huawei Mate 20 Pro. However, the main 12-megapixel camera feels like it could have been better. Photos from the ultrawide and tele cameras are superb, and I’ve found myself experimenting far more with shots I wouldn’t usually take. For instance, the wide is great for landscapes, while the tele is ideal for sporting events, when you want to get closer to the action. I absolutely love the the versatility these cameras offer, giving you numerous options for creative shots in multiple situations. In the app, you can zoom out to enter wide view and there’s somewhat of a fisheye effect on the results.

Of the three, it’s the ultra-wide sensor that’s the new addition – and the implementation is similar to that used by Huawei in the Mate 20 Pro. There’s an ultra-wide 16-megapixel f/2.2 sensor, too, and a stabilised 12-megapixel tele sensor for zooming.

The rear camera is an optically stabilised 12-megapixel main sensor, with an aperture that can shift between f/1.5 for night shots and f/2.4 for the day.

You’ll find three cameras on the back of the S10 Plus, with a further two on the front.
