The 2019 Samsung S10 and S10+ will be announced in less than a month, but we already know most things about them thanks to a constant stream of leaks.

Just today, Samsung announced a 1-terabyte storage chip that will most probably end in the rumored top-of-the-line special edition of the S10+. At the same time, the Brazilian version of the FCC has published the battery sizes.

Here are all the technical specs we have gathered so far.

We don’t expect the phones themselves to be bigger this time around (or at least not significantly so) as Samsung has reportedly found a way to make the bezels even slimmer.

On the CPU front, it’s a foregone conclusion now that the Galaxy S10 and S10+ will be two of the first phones powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 855 processor in the U.S. Based on our benchmarks and some supposed leaked benchmark scores, it looks like Qualcomm may have closed the gap with the A12 Bionic chip in the iPhone XR, XS and XS Max.

The Galaxy S10 could start with 6GB of RAM and offer 8GB as an option, while the S10+ may go all the way up to 12GB, as we learned in a recent leak.

If you want a ton of storage, the S10+ will likely be the flagship to get, as it will reportedly offer up to 1TB inside. The S10 may start with a perfectly adequate 128GB.

Samsung is said to be paying a lot of attention to its camera quality this time around, as the company is rumored to be rolling out a Bright Night feature that will deliver better results in low light. This would be a direct answer to the Pixel 3’s Night Sight mode.

If the rumors are true, Samsung will be beefing up the battery capacity on both of its new phones. The Galaxy S10 will allegedly offer a 3,300 mAh battery (up from 3,000 mAh in the Galaxy S9), while the S10+ could boast a whopping 4,000 mAh pack (up from 3,500 on the S9+).

Samsung has already revealed its OneUI software, which is designed to deliver a more streamlined user experience on top of Android 9 Pie. So it’s a no-brainer that it will show up on the S10 and S10+.

Keep watching for updates until February 20, when the Samsung S10 series will be presented in San Francisco, California.
