Those who purchase a Galaxy S10 or Watch Scott Pilgrim vs. the World OnlineS10+ shouldn't have to worry about paying extra for a screen protector. Samsung this week confirmed that its upcoming flagship smartphones will come with one pre-installed.

"This decision was made to increase overall customer experiences with the improved screen durability and full functionality of the ultrasonic fingerprint sensoron Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+," Samsung wrote.

If, however, the pre-installed screen protector gets scratched up and you need a new one, you'll have to pay for it yourself. While other in-box accessories such as the Travel Adapter, USB Connector, and AKG headset are covered under a one-year warranty, the screen protector is not, Samsung said.

A Samsung-branded replacement screen protector will set you back $29.99. Samsung is urging carriers and retailers to sell its screen protectors in their stores.

The tech giant said it "cannot guarantee" that screen protectors made of traditional glass and polyurethane materials will work with the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor on Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+, so keep that in mind if you ever need to purchase a replacement.

The Galaxy S10 is priced from $899.99 while the larger S10+ starts at $999.999. Both are available for pre-order now and slated to arrive on March 8. PCMag's Lead Mobile Analyst Sascha Segan got a first look at the handsets last week.

"The S10 units aren't radically new, but as always, they're solid," he concluded. "The hole-punch screen is less irritating than a notch, especially on the smaller units, which have the smaller hole. The colors are attractive, and the prices are, for today's costly mobile phone market, mainstream."
