Galaxy S10 Lite confirmed via Samsung’s FCC filing

Back in October, we covered a rumor that claimed Samsung was working on a more affordable phone called the Galaxy S10 Lite. This was in addition to a rumored Galaxy Note 10 Lite. Thanks to a new FCC filing from Samsung, we can confirm the existence of this mysterious device.

The FCC filing is for a phone called “Galaxy S10 Lite” with model number SM-G770F. This is the same model number that was mentioned in the previous rumor. The FCC filing also includes some connectivity details: LTE cat 14, only 3xCA max, no 4×4 MIMO. From the previous rumor, it’s said to have the Snapdragon 855 SoC, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, 48 + 12 + 5MP cameras, a 32MP front camera, 4,500 mAh battery, 45W charging, and a 6.7-inch Full HD+ display.

The big question about this device is what exactly makes it a “Lite” Galaxy S10. Samsung already released the Galaxy S10e, which had a 5.8-inch display. A 6.7-inch display would be the same size as the Galaxy S10 5G. So it doesn’t seem to be “Lite” in terms of size, and a Snapdragon 855 and 8GB of RAM isn’t “Lite” on performance either. The specifications sound like a flagship phone that would easily compete with the other S10 devices.

Samsung will have new devices to show off in February. We’ll have to wait and see what happens with this Galaxy S10 Lite.
