Samsung recently launched the Galaxy Note 20 Series and this also marked the debut of the “Ultra” variant on the Note series. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra comes with all the bells and whistles one could think of. It is equipped with class-leading specs including a 108MP camera unit at the rear. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra doesn’t come cheap at $1,299 for the base model with 128GB storage.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Review Roundup
The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra comes fitted with a giant 6.9-inch display which literally stretches into the tablet category. Furthermore, the display offers a variable refresh rate of 120Hz, and interestingly the refresh rate comes down to 10Hz when the display is static. Let us take a closer look at what reviewers have to say about the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.
The Verge
The Verge praises Galaxy Note 20’s display but also notes that it eliminates the need for reading on Kindle or tablet. It is good to know that Samsung has not compromised battery life in any manner. Perhaps, the variable refresh rate on the display helps to conserve battery. Reviewers go on to praise how good the S-Pen has become. Samsung has reduced S-Pen latency on Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and is now 80 percent faster than the Note 10. I’m regularly getting through two days of use. Even if I push this thing super hard by shooting 8K video and playing streaming games, it still clocks in around six hours of screen time and doesn’t need to be plugged in until I sleep. The battery life out of that 4,500mAh cell is all the more impressive because it’s powering a lot. The Note 20 Ultra has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+ processor, which has a separate modem for 5G (an extra power draw). There’s 12GB of RAM — enough to multitask — and the usual assortment of other Samsung specs: in-screen ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, wireless and reverse wireless charging, expandable storage, stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5, NFC, MST, IP68 water resistance, wireless DeX over Miracast.” The reviewers discovered that portrait mode on Note 20 Ultra’s selfie is weird as the face looks unnatural. However, things are back to normal when you return to normal mode. I think the Note 20 Ultra has a camera system that’s on par with the best phones out there, except for one part: Samsung biffed it with the selfie camera. ➤ Read
