Huawei is to Porsche (Design), OPPO is to
Lamborghini, OnePlus is to McLaren, and Samsung is to……..well, Tesla, if the
rumors are true. Yes, Samsung is said to be planning a Galaxy Note10 Tesla
Edition.
A Chinese blogger shared a post on Weibo almost a
week ago that the Korean phone giant will partner with Tesla to release a
limited edition Galaxy Note10. The post even includes a render of the phone. The phone has a gray brushed
metal finish with red accents and a 3D Tesla logo sitting on the back. The S
Pen is also mainly red with the upper third in gray.
We haven’t seen this get reported anywhere, so we
advise you to take it with a grain of salt. However, it is also possible the
info is genuine. Just before the Galaxy S10 launched, it was reported that
there would be a red variant of the phone. While the source got the name wrong,
Samsung did announce a Cardinal Red variant for the Galaxy S10 series. It is possible, the source of
this Galaxy Note10 Tesla Edition rumor is someone in the supply chain. And just
like the Cardinal Red Galaxy S10, it may launch much later after the Galaxy
Note10 Unpacked event.
The Galaxy Note10 should launch in August. It will
have a Pro variant with quad-rear cameras while the standard version will have
triple rear cameras. Both will have a centered punch hole display and be
powered by the unannounced Exynos 9825 processor.
