We didn’t miss the extra pixels, and we don’t think most people will notice the difference on a screen of this size. The Note 20 Ultra addresses this problem with a camera that zooms into scenes with a 5x optical zoom and maximum 50x digital zoom, and this is where Samsung’s new camera stands out.

Perceptual scores for bokeh preview were also slightly lower due to depth estimation and blur intensity differences between preview and capture. Actual charging speed may also vary depending on the actual usage, charging conditions, and other factors. Earbuds are included in some countries such as the UK, but are not bundled in others such as the US.

The level of detail is very acceptable under all tested conditions on the Note20 Ultra 5G, with the device implementing a good texture-versus-noise tradeoff. We often found that we had 20% left in the phone at the end of a day of testing, with such days often filled with taking photos and videos, and watching YouTube videos on the 6. Exposure and color are nice in night scenes captured using flash-auto mode, and although detail is a little low with some noise visible, the results are generally pleasant.

Watch works with phone, i got no problems with BT audio, as i got them on my one and only xiaomi phone. Samsung says that Link to Windows will eventually let you run up to six mobile apps on your PC at once. The S-Pen has better latency at 26ms on the Note 20 and 9ms on the Note 20 Ultra, reduced from 42ms on the Note 10 and Note 10+. Not only because camera fail, but after latest updates that phone become more and more uncomfortable to use. Fairly heavy ringing is prominent along contrasted edges when viewing images at large scale, and a hue shift near saturation renders skies a little unnatural, as we saw for the exposure attribute earlier.Capturing night portraits in flash-auto mode, the performance of the flash is good, recording accurate exposure of the subject, nice color with pleasant skin tones, and a high level of detail. In this section, we take a closer look at how each sub-score was determined and compare image quality against some key competitors. Most people should opt for 4K with steady hands or, when things get shaky, 1080p, as boring as that sounds. The telephoto camera also has a slightly wider aperture than the one on the S20 Ultra: f/3 rather than f/3. While the field of view isn’t quite as wide as our new top-ranked wide device (the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra), the Note20 Ultra 5G’s module still squeezes lots of image into the frame.

Wireless DeX mode and Link to Windows work (pretty) well: I managed to get the Note 20 Ultra to connect to my TCL Roku TV wirelessly and use the phone as a touchpad. At 76 points, the Samsung’s Zoom score is a little disappointing compared to some of its direct competitors in the high-end segment.Multitaskers will also appreciate the improved DeX experience, which is now completely wireless, instead of requiring you to use a cable or dock to connect to a monitor. Due to restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic on public and social gatherings, Note 20 devices were unveiled virtually at Samsung's newsroom in Suwon, South Korea. All credit is subject to status and available to UK Sole Traders over 18, with a UK bank account and valid driver’s license, passport or identity card. It was a neat party trick, but anything beyond a 50x zoom was often unusable depending on the lighting conditions.
