| + | [* black] In most aspects the S10e is a slight downgrade from the S10, despite looking fairly similar on the outside. The most notable difference is the larger power button on the S10e, where the capacitive fingerprint sensor is housed. |
| [* icon_note] We hope that these relocated fingerprint sensors will make our opening procedure [guide|87086|a little safer|stepid=164353|new_window=true]. | |
| [* black] Despite their differences, the S10 and S10e both agree that headphone jacks are still pretty cool. | |
| [* black] And sitting alongside the headphone jack on the bottom edge of the phone we spot a USB-C port, a speaker, and a microphone. | |
