The only disappointing thing about the Galaxy Note 10 Lite is that it does not feature a flagship chipset. The rival phones in the same price category are powered by Snapdragon 855+ flagship SoC from last year. The Galaxy Note 10 Lite ships with Exynos 9810. It is a processor that fueled the Galaxy S9 series and Galaxy Note 9 series in 2018. This does not mean that is a sluggish phone. It should be good enough for regular usage. However, intensive tasks like gaming will be better on phones with newer processors.
