In short, theres simply no reason to purchase a Galaxy S20 Ultra when the Note20 Ultra exists.
The Galaxy S20 Ultra was never a phone we loved. The price, the electronic camera problems, the reasonably ineffective 5G– everything about this $1400 leviathan simply didnt make good sense as a product we d advise anyone in fact head out and purchase. Quick forward to August, and now Samsung has a new big phone: the Note20 Ultra. And as our evaluation makes clear from the start, Samsung has repaired basically every huge problem that made the S20 Ultra so “meh,” all while making the Note $100 more affordable than its Galaxy S equivalent. In brief, theres simply no factor to buy a Galaxy S20 Ultra when the Note20 Ultra exists.
And it doesnt stop there– regardless of having a 500mAh smaller sized battery than Samsungs last “Ultra” phone, the Note20 Ultra lasts longer on a charge. Samsung appears to be confessing that the S20 Ultra was too pricey because the undoubtedly superior Note20 Ultra is $100 less at $1,300. If youre going to spend a small fortune on a phone, theres no reason for the S20 Ultra over the Note20 Ultra.
When the Galaxy S20 Ultra released, Samsung invested a great deal of time talking up the camera variety with its 108MP main sensing unit and a periscope lens. However, we discovered performance lacking in big part due to poor autofocus. Even after many updates, the S20 Ultra offers a sub-standard cam experience, and it still costs $1,400. Even if you do not take a great deal of photos and your main desire is a giant, high-quality screen, the S20 Ultra is no longer the very best choice.
The Galaxy Note20 Ultra, by contrast, has a laser autofocus module that mainly fixes the cam. And it doesnt stop there– in spite of having a 500mAh smaller sized battery than Samsungs last “Ultra” phone, the Note20 Ultra lasts longer on a charge. On top of whatever else, the Note20 Ultra has the S Pen stylus, which you dont get on the S20.
Samsung seems to be confessing that the S20 Ultra was too costly since the undoubtedly remarkable Note20 Ultra is $100 less at $1,300. Yes, that is still a great deal of cash. If youre going to invest a little fortune on a phone, theres zero validation for the S20 Ultra over the Note20 Ultra. That may not hold true if the Galaxy S20 Ultra gets the fire list price it deserves, however its presently full-price.
