Samsung’s second software update for the Galaxy S10 lineup brought with it improvements to Wireless PowerShare, and it turns out that the company has made a very useful change. The heart rate sensor on the back of the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ will now light up to indicate that Wireless PowerShare is being used. Notice that we don’t mention the Galaxy S10e here, and that’s because the S10e’s heart rate sensor is almost completely hidden behind the camera assembly.
Only for Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ owners
Those who have updated their Galaxy S10 or S10+ will now see the phone’s heart rate sensor light up to indicate various stages of charging. When you enable Wireless PowerShare, you’ll see a blinking blue light. Once a device is placed on the back and actual reverse wireless charging begins, the light turns a stable red. Once the device you’re charging reaches 100 percent charge, you’ll simply see the heart rate sensor go dark.
It’s good to see Samsung making minor improvements to the Galaxy S10 with software updates. We can expect more such changes in the future, including improvements to the in-display fingerprint sensor as the company has promised and fixes for issues like high battery drain that some users are facing. For now, don’t forget to update to the newest software by going into the Software update menu of your Galaxy S10’s settings and tapping Download updates manually.
