Samsung Galaxy Note20 and Note20 Ultra unveiled with upgraded screens, S Pen and cameras

Both Notes have larger displays than their predecessors - a 120 Hz panel in the case of the Ultra, 60 Hz for the vanilla model.

good bye 👋 samsung have fun

    Isn't ToF better than Laser AF?

      Anders, 05 Aug 2020So the Ultra has micro SD support again but the standard do... moreLol what

        Bad choice of using the same Exynos 990 while other models get SD865+, they should've overclocked exynos too and they really ruined the vanilla Note20, even mid range are adopting 90Hz

          So the Ultra has micro SD support again but the standard doesn't. Sammy don't know what they are doing

            JDK, 05 Aug 2020Heh, lol. You actually care about 1.0 microns vs. 1.4 mi... moreRead before you even answer kiddo.

            The 64 mp is 1.07x optical zoom. Not 1.8 x.

            Tof assists in autofocus more than an laser af and it is very useful in bokeh. It hepls phone focus even in pitch black.

            Dna of note series : an everything phone for an power user and content creator.

            Ultrawide with autofocus matters, it aloows for macro and non blurry photos at close.

            1 micron vs 1.4 micron is not an big deal. But last year note 10 plus has 16 MP 1 micron, S20 plus has 12 MP 1.4 micron. Samsung is stupid, it picked the wrong of both worlds. I am not complaining, it is just an stupid downgrade.

            Stop replying like you know anything. If you wanna bet, come. I will answer every single question you throw at me.

              Anonymous, 05 Aug 2020Well, let's suppose the glass back costs $20 more than... moreI work for a big company, I know how things work and etc. that doesnt mean they are right on doing these kind of stuff. I bet that long term they will lose more clients.

              for exemple mercedes, they put nice materials on the things that you touch, but on the lower parts of the car, they put cheap plastic. that is smart. what samsung did is not that smart imo, even 200$ phones have glass back.

                WTF is Samsung thinking? I can't use the 45w charger with the Note 20 Ultra?! I'll pass on this.

                  The note 20 is the worst note samsung ever made, it's only purpose is to make the ultra look great and worth the extra price. And I can't believe they didn't even bother to upgrade the 990. I think anyone who likes the note series should still go for a note 10 plus, the upgrade isn't worth that huge amount of money at all.

                    Note 20 shouldn't be regarded as a flagship anymore!
                    S20 is better and way cheaper now.
                    Samsung has totally lost it today.

You actually care about 1.0 microns vs. 1.4 mi... moreTrue I felt those TOF sensor on Note10+ just waste of space depth effect you can make it better via software algorithms like Pixel or Apple does I’m justify for Note20 Ultra for spec but not for Note20 but this just simple marketing terms by samsung to push people to buy more expensive smartphone than cheap

                        Laser AF focus only at 1 point, while ToF can focus one many hundreds.
                        It is not just for bokeh.

                              miaumiaumiau, 05 Aug 2020stop with the argument: ”it sells alot”. that doesnt prove ... moreWell, let's suppose the glass back costs $20 more than plastic one (I have no idea).
                              Now imagine 3 million units sold.
                              We would have 600 million dollars more in Samsung's pocket.

                              This is why some brands still use cheaper 1080p for the main phone, older gorilla 5, mono audio, no IP rating etc ....

                                the note 10+ supports 45w charging and the note 20 ultra doesn't??? what a disappointment!!!!!!!!

                                  Load of rubbish. Ugly, oversized camera deck that looks like they're copying Apple, overpriced and worst of all, the dreadful Exynos processor. I really wanted them to ditch the Exynos but never again will I buy one of those.

                                      So this year Samsung didn't even bother to upgrade they trash chipset for europe/India but price stay same
                                      Exynos 990 was a 500k score on antutu and while it overheats easy and fast is a device thats works similar with 2 years old device that runs a 400k score while rest of world gonna get the upgraded version of snapdragon 865+ which runs what?650-700k score?and no heating issues
                                      We were blaming apple a few years ago but Samsung deserves the top chart of worse company

                                        You actually care about 1.0 microns vs. 1.4 microns on a phone? Actually though, is ANYBODY gonna notice the differenc? 70% of buyers don't even know what a MICRON IS!

                                        Same with ultrawide camera autofocus. Like really?

                                        3D depth sensor is useless on the s20 ultra. Plus, it doesn't even improve portraits(like the p40 pro), so it's better to just get rid of it(like the 2MP macro and depth sensors on cheap phones).

                                        Does the S-Pen really need any upgrades? If you think it needs more upgrades, can you tell me what those are?

                                        Now for the note 20.

                                        Doesn't have note "DNA"? Wait. What exactly is note DNA? It's subjective.
                                        Feels like a note 20 lite? Again, subjective. It has a flagship chipset, of course.
                                        Again, 64MP is not digital zoom, it's 1.8x optical plus some cropping.

                                        All of your other concerns are legitamite.
