Samsung should have kept the dual aperture lens on the S20 as the camera sensor has increased, contributing to a reduction in depth of field. Probably F2.8 will be needed to keep most objects sharp in everyday usage for such a large sensor.

Nothing wrong with your camera. If both sides of the photo look equally blur when you focus in the centre, there is nothing wrong but if one side looks blurrer, you can complain to Samsung that your camera lens is decentered and ask for a replacement.

Foggy, not sharp.
The bigger sensor was supposed to bring this to another level but it became worse than many phones from the 2018-2019.
I would dare to say that the quality of the photos of the S20 is very comparable to the S6 or S7. For 899,00 this is a steal.

The screen for me is superb, the fingerprint sensor is mediocre at best unless you tweak the sensitivity setting.
The camera is downright poor, take a picture of someone and and have a look at their skin and it looks like they have makeup on for a TV show. I'm hoping to try it out in better light and do a few phone calls on it, before I make the decision to keep it or return it.

S20's screen looks like it has a gray filter on it. It's not so vivid, although it's set on vivid.
Camera sucks, battery too.

I think the battery issue is related to the chipset. It's a shame Samsung is selling Exynos only in many countries. I can't really recommend you any alternative if you don't have access to any Snapdragon variants.
I hope you can sort it out :/

It's not just the battery that sucks, it's also the camera. I got hyped. The screen has a mediocre quality. I am not sure if I got a defect.
It won't let me watch 1440p content in youtube. The option is not there. No matter what it gives me 1080 all the time. even at 60fps QHD+
The video of youtube never fills the screen unless you zoom it.

The camera on this phone is driving my crazy. It tends to over-focus the center of the photo and leaves everything else blurry and not sharp.
It just sharpens the center of the photo very well and the rest of the photo is for the garbage, ON EVERY SINGLE PHOTO.
Even if you shoot a mountain, the mountain will be sharp and next to it a blurry mess even if you are not tap-focus on it. By deafult it sharpens the center of ANY PHOTO !
getting paranoid.

AnonD-908380, 14 Mar 2020How is the endurance rating this low?Crazy but i charge this phone 3 times a day. Of course I don't let it charge to 100% but to 80% so that it doesn't stress the battery.
Unfortunately the battery life sucks, big time. Be prepared to always carry a power bank.

S20 4G here and I noticed the same problem with the main camera.
Kind of blurry and not so sharp. After shooting a photo and zooming "just a tiny bit" with my fingers the photo starts to show unbelievable artifacts. The camera focuses too much on one thing and blurs everything else, especially at the corners. But the way it blurs seems like it comes from a mobile camera of the early 2000's. It doesn't look premium.
There was an update which I didn't notice any change.
I never use zoom because it makes photos look even uglier.
Funny how some guy at work compared it with his Huawei P20 pro and he got better results. I get paranoid now.
