Samsung has just announced the Galaxy Note 10 and the Galaxy Note 10 Plus at its Unpacked event in Brooklyn. To put it simply, the leaks and rumors were all correct. The headphone jack is gone. The Galaxy Note 10 Plus does have a micro SD card slot (not the smaller Note 10). And it has plenty of new S Pen features.
But these days, we can't focus on the specs of a new smartphone. Virtually every flagship smartphone that has launched this year, has the same specs as the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10 Plus. So what differentiates the Galaxy Note 10 line from the many other smartphones on the market this year? Well it's the software, and the design. So let's talk about that.
Over the past few years, Michigan rapper NF has achieved an unprecedented degree of success in both the Christian and mainstream markets. His third (record label) LP, Perception, ended up charting at #1, going on to receive RIAA Platinum certification. Despite the album’s financial success, it was difficult to argue that most of its material was little more than a rehashing of prior albums. One of the underlying issues has been the fact that NF has released his albums in a rapid, yearly succession, offering less time for developing new content, personal growth, and fresh topics. This time around, thankfully, NF has chosen to wait nearly two years before releasing his newest album, The Search.
