Hi @BOjaS 

Nothing like that on my Samsung Note10 + 5G 

I have the black version.

Do you have some kind of vinyl stickers on yours giving that wood effect look ?

That's unusual, I've had my Note10+ Aura Glow since launch.

Your case has probably done this, otherwise I'd assume you'd have other areas of the bezel peeling also.

I'd recommend an Official Samsung Case for your Note10+, as well as Olixar and Otterbox.

I'm using the Otterbox defender case.

version is black too, no stickers (wood effect is my desk) only phone cover. I know s9 had some issues with paint that why I want to find out. I just wondering if its common or I`m just unfortunate. Phone is still under 1 year so thinking of contacting Samsung and find out what they think about it.

Its not cover fault thats for sure... its coming of just from the edge of where metal connecting with plastic charging port which is weak spot

I've had my Samsung Note10+ 5G from launch with no issue's and the case I use is an official leather clip on case which leaves the bottom section open @BOjaS 

You could visit a Samsung Experience Store or Samsung Service Centre but I think you may find they put this down to wear and tear and not covered under the Manufacturing Warranty wether you agree or not.   😞

Have you dropped the phone at all without the case? Also, your charging port looks like its seen better days; when inserting the charging cable do you look or just feel around? You might be constantly clipping the side.

I've never had an issue like that. It might indeed just be bad luck. I think someone mentioned nipping into a Samsung store, see what they say.

Is that 'paint' flaking off or does this just suspiciously look like someone needs better aim when charging. Aura glow, day 1, caseless (gasp!) The trick is i remind myself its worth 1400.

I have the same problem, near the stylus housing. I seldom use the stylus.

Its a note 10 plus dark blue, 3 months old. I use the official clear cover and have never dropped my phone(touchwood). The peeled off area looks just like yours but behind the stylus socket

I tryed with Samsung. Contacted them directly they were insisting that it my fault... I manage to get Samsung mobile repair to come and have a look and they told me that damage is cosmetic not affecting mobile use and is not covered.
