Some Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus users are reporting signal strength issues

June 14, 2025

TheSamsung Galaxy S10 Plusmight be the most feature-packed Samsung device in years (aside from the5G model), but it looks like the phone’s signal strength is coming into question.

According toseveralforumthreadsspotted byAndroid Police, users are finding that the Galaxy S10 Plus simply has worse signal strength than their previous phones (e.g. Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8).

Many Sprint users have reported weak signal strength on the Samsung customer forums, but some AT&T and T-Mobile users have reported the same issue on the forum and reddit. So it certainly seems like it’s more than just a single carrier-related issue, likely involving a number of factors. Sprint users have apparently been able to find a workaround by disabling bands 41 and 25.

Android Policealso notes that its own Galaxy S10 Plus unit has weaker signal strength than theGalaxy S9,OnePlus 6T, andGoogle Pixel 3. Furthermore, it says simply holding the device “wrong” (and without a case) results in a drop in signal quality.
