Phone or Device Usage
I love my Samsung Galaxy S10, it's a very fast and smooth device that has excellent battery life. The camera is very good since it's a 12 MP camera and takes amazing phones and videos. I enjoy having 128 gb of space to store pictures and downloads app that are useful to me. The display is better than most people's TVs with a sharp and crisp image. I also enjoy the fact that it has a headphone jack when many companies are dropping it. This phone has been much better than my Apple and I regret not switching sooner.

Likes
Its speed, camera, display, headphone jack, memory space, and finish. I also enjoy the wireless charging, its waterproof, and has expandable memory if you need it. 

Dislikes
Don't like the fact that Google doesn't care about one's privacy like Apple. That's my only dislike on the device but that's mainly an issue with Andriod and not the Samsung S10 device.
Suggestions
Improve the privacy of the user and you got a homerun device here. Its speed, camera, display, headphone jack, memory space, and finish are all things that make it better than any Apple product out today.
