Samsung Galaxy S10 may retain a 3.5mm audio jack after all

A fresh batch of Samsung Galaxy S10 renders have leaked online and while they seem to corroborate every past leak and rumour, an important point to observe (and even rejoice) here is the presence of a 3.5mm audio jack. Looks like the Samsung Galaxy S10 may retain a 3.5mm audio jack after all. Even though the Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to pack newer technologies like in-display fingerprint scanner and punch-hole selfie cam, it will be nice if the company sticks around with the good old jack which is fast becoming a rarity in top-of-the-line smartphones.   

The Galaxy S10 line-up will have three different models: Galaxy S10E (or Galaxy S10 Lite), Galaxy 10 and Galaxy S10+. The leaked renders show off only the more premiere Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ models, although the Galaxy S10 Lite is expected to be on similar lines with regards to the design. 

The Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+, as mentioned earlier, are set to be the more premiere models in the line-up, offering features like curved OLED display, in-screen fingerprint scanners, and three rear cameras. The Galaxy S10 Lite is said to come with two rear cameras. 

The Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ are said to come with punch-hole selfie cams aka an Infinity-O display like the one we saw recently in the Samsung Galaxy A8s, and the leaked render corroborates these rumours. Also, it confirms that the Galaxy S10+ model will ship with two selfie cams embedded into the display, while the Galaxy S10 will come with just the one selfie shooter.  

At the bottom, the alleged Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+, pack USB Type-C port for charging and data syncing and a speaker grille in addition to the headphone jack.

The leaked renders are also in line with renders that serial tipster Evan Blass shared recently.  

Samsung will launch its Galaxy S10 phones on February 20 ahead of MWC 2019. The company is hosting its annual Unpacked event in San Francisco on February 20 where it will take the wraps off its Galaxy S10 phones for the global markets.
