The S20 is the closest phone I've seen to perfect, even 2 years later. More RAM than the S21, microSD slot, 120hz refresh, great battery life, and sub-6 5G which doesn't burn your battery life or give you cancer. Only single issue I had with it was with the camera having a difficult time focusing. Even when making sure the lens was clean and deleting the app data, the auto-focus was just poor for a point-and-shoot. Multiple firmware updates made no difference. Don't get me started on the Hybrid Zoom macrolens... just as bad but with artifacts. Samsung sort of acknowledged the problem by adding a laser to help with auto-focus on the Note20 Ultra and S21 Ultra, but that's of little help if you own the S20.

I've had this phone for about a year. Big disappointment. This phone has a mind of its own. Not always responsive. Maybe due to the switch from sprint to t-mobile apps will open by themselves, phone won't turn off, on occasion it has started recording conversations within the room. Too many glitches to list. S-pen is a godsend!. Gorilla glass is awesome! Had to remove case for phone due to battery overheating when in pocket or purse. Screen turns itself on.

I have had this phone for 6 months and am somewhat disappointed with it. Hardware seems nice, though there is a terrible distortion in speaker. It is a defect as I never have the volume high and don't even use it for music. I do not like this particular Android interface. For comparison I most recently had an LG V35 ThinQ. There are many features on the this device just seem ponderous to use in comparison. Several frequently accessed options are deeply buried in the Settings. Deleting text messages requires too many taps. If I get a text message from a new number that I do not want it takes 6 taps to delete it. Deleting a photo constantly requires authorizing access to do so. The recent implementation of Visual Voice mail on Google Fi feels like they just rushed it out. It isn't part of the phone app. you can't have it automatically download the messages. there is no speech to text ability. It feels like a beta version. The overall interface is not streamlined and for the most part cannot be customized to remove redundant steps. In some apps there are buttons but you have to remember to swipe them, not tap them. Tapping the button does nothing.
Other than the speaker issues I don't have hardware issues. Photos are nice and battery life is great. I mention those because I notice others complaining about them. No issues here with those features. There are some nice options on the camera, though getting them to work is sometimes awkward.

Although has relative weak battery and overhearing Exynos, I'm still satisfied with mine S20 5G, 12GB ram version. It is very fluid, fast phone with gorgeus 120Hz display, fine camera and sits perfectly in pocket or in just one hand. The only real competition for this phone is not Huawei but Xiaomi Mi 11. But mi11 is bulky and heavy so if you want great performer in compact case and water proof this is the perfect solution.

Rejin, 27 Feb 2021Just bought Samsung S20 5G, & found out in box sticker ... moreIt is very easy to permanently cancel Samsung Region Lock. All you have to do is call for 5 minutes with a SIM card from the same market as the device. For example, do you want to use a European telephone with an Asian SIM card? First call someone for at least 5 minutes with a European SIM card. The regional lock will be lifted, so you can use your Samsung device with SIM cards from every region. Do you have a dual SIM? Then Use the second SIM card for 5 minutes as well.

Rejin, 27 Feb 2021Just bought Samsung S20 5G, & found out in box sticker ... moreSome expensive Samsung phones have a region lock , you have to use it first in the country you buy it with a SIM card from a local operator. Only for five minutes. It is to prevent the shipping of the phone to be sold in another country, probably without paying taxes. After first use, you can use it in any country without problem.

Just bought Samsung S20 5G, & found out in box sticker that Unit SIM is only for Middle East & North Africa... This Notice was not advertise in the tags/labels. So if you are expat in ME and you intend to use your phone somewhere else, it is a USER DISADVANTAGE.

People has to realize that this phone has several cameras, and they must learn how to use them. If you want a clear close-up shot, use the one tree icon on the right. If you use the usual 1 tree icon in the center, only the front part of the scene will be clear, the rest being blurred.

Using the SD version for the last 5 months and it never disappointed. Battery life is quite good, at least serves 2 days for normal use, excellent sound quality, and, last but not the least, its awesome resolutions. Only could be improved in camera department, but still the existing setup is quite in order for my amateur photography and video. Very comfortable to use with one hand.
