It won't have a notch, though. Samsung is reportedly going with its new Infinity-O display for the device. This means that there will be a hole in the active display area for the front camera. The display hole design will be different for the Galaxy S10+ because the other models will only have a single front camera.
To be clear, there's conflicting information about the Galaxy S10+ display. The possibility of this device featuring the Infinity-O display has been highlighted only recently. The purported Galaxy S10+ dimensions and unofficial renders that surfaced recently also pointed in this direction.
This screen protector makes a similar claim. The Galaxy S10+'s 6.4-inch display won't have a notch but two holes in the panel's top right corner. This will allow Samsung to stretch the display as much as it can without having to use a notch. It's not completely averse to notches anymore, though. Samsung did reveal its notched displays at its developers' conference last month.
Even if all models of the Galaxy S10 are to get the Infinity-O display, it won't be the first device with a hole-in-display. That crown will go to the Galaxy A8s. Samsung confirmed yesterday that it will be unveiling the Galaxy A8s in Beijing on December 10. It will most likely be released before the Galaxy S10.
Samsung's new flagship isn't due to be unveiled before February next year. It will arrive at the Mobile World Congress 2019 in Barcelona. Shipments may begin the following month. Do take these screen protectors with a grain of salt. It's not particularly difficult for someone to whip up a couple of them to add to the rumor mill's frenzy.
