Winner: Realme X2 Pro
Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Vs. Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite Vs. Realme X2 Pro: Display
Coming to the display of the devices, the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite features a 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display. The display comes with a single punch-hole cutout for the front camera. The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite, too, comes with a similar display and has the same layout for the front camera. Lastly, the Realme X2 Pro sports a 6.5-inch Fluid AMOLED FHD+ display, giving out a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a 20:9 aspect ratio. Unlike the other two devices, the Realme X2 Pro features a waterdrop notch at the top of the display. What makes the Realme X2 Pro stands out is the fact that it has a 90Hz refresh rate.

Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Vs. Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite Vs. Realme X2 Pro: Performance, Software
Powering the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite is the company’s in-house Exynos 9810 chipset. The processor is coupled with 6GB/8GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage. The storage can further be expanded with the help of an external SD card (dedicated, by the way). The Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite, on the other hand, runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 chip, which is coupled with 128GB of expandable storage. Lastly, the Realme X2 Pro is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset, which is coupled with 6GB/8GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB/256GB of internal storage. Sadly enough, the storage of the device cannot be expanded further. Still, given that even the 256GB variant of the device is priced much below the price of the other two devices, the Realme X2 Pro turns out to be the house the best SoC out of the three smartphones that we are comparing. If 256GB of internal storage does not suffice your needs, however, you are better off with any of the other two devices.
Coming to the software, the Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite and the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite run on Android 10 out of the box with One UI 2.0 skin atop. Samsung has left no stone unturned to come with a well-polished skin this time around. When it comes to the Realme X2 Pro, however, the same cannot be said for sure as the Realme UI is still in the beta stage. The fact that Realme has planned to bring ads to its ecosystem does not help its case either. Still, the choice here would ultimately boil down to personal preference so that we would decide this round based on the SoC.
Winner: Realme X2 Pro
Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Vs. Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite Vs. Realme X2 Pro: Camera
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite features a triple rear camera setup (12MP primary, a 12MP wide-angle lens, and another 12MP telephoto sensor) and a 32MP selfie shooter. The Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite, on the other hand, comes with three cameras, but with different resolution – 48MP primary lens, 12MP wide-angle lens, and 5MP macro lens. The camera is backed by Optical Image Stabilization. The Realme X2 Pro features a quad rear camera setup (64MP + 13MP + 8MP + 2MP) and a 16MP selfie snapper. While numbers are not everything and the actual camera performance is much more than mere numbers, the Realme X2 Pro still has an advantage over the others because of the larger sensor and an additional camera.
Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Vs. Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite Vs. Realme X2 Pro: Final Verdict
All the three smartphones that we have compared come with decent specifications and features, but the Realme X2 Pro proves to be the better choice because of its lesser price, a better display with a higher refresh rate, and a better processor.
