Update, August 20, 2025 (10:08 AM ET):According to a report fromBloomberg, Verizon Wireless will begin accepting pre-orders for the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G on April 18. The device will then hit store shelves on May 16, as leaked by Evan Blass and described in the article below.
There’s still no word yet on pricing for the device (expect it to hurt your wallet), nor is there any word on when the device will hit AT&T or other U.S. carriers.
Original article, July 07, 2025 (02:35 AM ET):Verizonhas just flicked the switch on its5Gservice, offering connectivity in two cities and the5G Moto Mod. But what if you want a flagship super-phone with integrated connectivity?
Well, serial tipster Evan Blass has tweeted that theSamsung Galaxy S10 5Gwill be making its U.S. debut on May 16. So consumers will be in for a bit of a wait if they want a no-compromise 5G experience.
There’s no word on a U.S. price just yet, but the phone will go on sale in Korea tomorrow (April 5) at a starting price of 1.39 million won (~$1,224). Samsung’s device will be available in Crown Silver, Majestic Black, and Royal Gold.
There’s more to the phone than faster connectivity though, as it boasts a number of improvements over theGalaxy S10 Plus. These upgrades include a 4,500mAh battery, 25 watt fast charging, a larger display, and two3D ToF cameras(one on each side).
This isn’t the only 5G phone expected in the coming months, as devices fromHuawei,LG,OnePlus,Xiaomi, andZTEare also due for a release. Xiaomi’s phone in particular, theMi Mix 3 5G, is coming in at an aggressive 599 euro price point. So competition is quickly heating up in the industry after years of teasing the technology.
