For comparison, the big Galaxy Note 9 "phablet" has a 6.4-inch display.
It's an exciting time when a new wireless standard starts to roll out that promises faster speeds and better performance overall compared to the old standard. With 5G, many of us in the US might need to wait for 5G to come to our locations, but at least it's coming.
The lack of availability of 5G networks across the country isn't apparently stopping Samsung from releasing a smartphone that can actually use the wireless standard, even if most in the US won't be able to connect to a 5G network.
One thing to note: a lot of AT&T customers might see the 5G symbol on a new Galaxy S10X, and for those who live in areas where AT&T has rolled out 5G, that symbol would be accurate. However, AT&T has renamed one of its 4G LTE networks to "5G E," which isn't the same thing as true 5G.
ET News' sources say the Galaxy S10X will have four cameras on the rear of the phone and two on the front. It's not clear what each lens does.
ET News only mentions the in-display fingerprint sensor in the alleged Galaxy S10X, but it doesn't mention the "ultra-sonic" technology Samsung is rumored to be using for it.
We've seen in-display fingerprint sensors on the OnePlus 6T that was released in the US in November last year. The OnePlus 6T uses an optical sensor, which isn't supposedly as good as the ultra-sonic sensor that Samsung will use.
ET News says the Galaxy S10X will have a 5,000mAh battery, which is massive. If true, the Galaxy S10X would have one of the biggest batteries on any smartphone to date.
ET News' exact words are "more than 10GB of RAM," which would mean that Galaxy S10X would likely have the most RAM out of any smartphone ever made.
The most RAM we've seen in a smartphone so far is the OnePlus 6T with 10GB of RAM.
RAM on smartphones essentially lets you open apps and keep them open in the background so that, when you revisit the app, it opens instantaneously right where you left off.
The more RAM a phone has, the more apps it can keep open in the background. It helps give off the impression that a phone is fast and quick because it opens apps extremely quickly.
It's not clear if the Galaxy S10X will come with up to one terabyte of storage, or if that's the standard spec. Either way, one terabyte of storage is more than most computers have these days.
ET News mentioned a feature called "life pattern mode" that will use artificial intelligence to figure out what kinds of things you do on your phone throughout the day, and adjust the phone's functions accordingly. It's not exactly clear how "life pattern mode" will work.
