Take a closer look in the shadows of the photos. Both are, of course, amazing devices. But IMHO I think the photos from B are always keeping more details in the shadows (in the first photo, for instance, check the girls coat in the bottom part, we can see some stripes-ish in the B, but we just can't in the A. The same happens to more photos). But we can't go wrong with any of the devices, that's for sure.

I'm always surprised by the flak the fingerprint sensor on the Note gets; I have the Note 10 and, while the fingerprint sensor on it is not the fastest that I've tried, it works 99% of the time. That's about as reliable as the fingerprint sensor on the iPhones that I've had, and better than the one on the Samsung S8 I might add. I suspect that what helps in my case is that I register each thumb a couple of times from different angles, or maybe the quality of that sensor is not consistent and varies by the unit!

Great video. In the end it's indeed a matter of personal preference. I do like certain features and the enhanced battery life of the iPhone, but there's also a lot I like about my Android phone (I do have the Note 20 Ultra). Features like the AirTag are killer features, and will never work the same way on Android because of the various manufacturers. But they can't win me over, since I like the customization possibilities on Android and the freedom I have in using the apps I like, not what Apple dictates to me. I can use the keyboard I want, a program launcher of my choice, and that are the features that matter most to me (personally). I'm sure I could work on an Apple (I had an iPhone from work, and also had iPads, MacBooks,iPods), but the experience for me is better on Android. It's not a religion, everybody uses what they like and everybody uses a device in their own way and thus the user experience is different for everybody.

I own both as well and I honestly have gotten to where I just prefer whichever phone my SIM card is already in. When I'm using my MacBook more, the iPhone Pro Max edges ahead. When I'm working the Note 20 Ultra is more useful with split screen. Many apps seem more flushed out on the iPhone version, but the Note 20 has customization, so it's whatever is more important to you. I will admit the fingerprint sensor has made the Note 20 win my SIM card on some days if I'm wearing a mask more.

This was an awesome review to watch! I currently own both, and am in the process of deciding if to sell my Note 20 Ultra in favor of keeping the iPhone 12 Pro Max, or return the iPhone and stick with the Note. Something I really appreciate is good battery life, as I am a heavy user (Netflix, KZbin, Spotify, etc.) and the iPhone 12 Pro Max gives me 8-10 hours of screen-on time, on average, while the Note 20 Ultra offers 6.5-7 hours on the 120 Hz setting. However, with the iPhone, battery life also depends on what apps you use the most, as the lowest I have gotten is just a meager 6 hours once (I am serious). Anyhow, although I am leaning towards keeping the iPhone as I have forever been an android user and am interested in trying out a different OS now, we'll see what I go with. Anyway, nice comparison! The points you mentioned rang true, based on my experience with both phones. : )

Whatever makes you happy 😉

The Note's screen is awesome 👏

[@jacobfriberg3439]

Have been watching your videos for 2 years now and found your channel when I was researching what laptop to buy. (I ended up buying the Dell XPS 15) Just wanted to give props for always producing high quality content - great job! Phone wise I am using a Huawei mate 20 pro and have been super happy with that. I am looking to upgrade but think I will hold out for the Galaxy S21 as I think the Note is just very very big and also really a deal breaker with the Exynos having much lower performance. Do you think the Galaxy S21 will outperform the Note 20 Ultra in its maxed out version?

[@Thetechchap]

Thanks!! Yeah S21 will definitely outperform with either Snapdragon 888 or exynos 2100

Hello Jacob how are you doing?

[@harmohitsingh6075]

Really love your work Tom.Can u please share screen on time U get on note 20 ultra and is it exynos.Really love note 20 ultra but skeptical about exynos since using s20+ and I get sot of 4 hrs max.

[@TmanBlades]

I prefered photos from camera A and I honestly though it was the iPhone until the 50x zoom. I like the nightmare better on the note too.

The Tech Chap, I live in Jacksonville, Florida I viewed your review of the IPHONE 12's and I'm interested to see if you can do a full review on the differences between the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G, and a compatible IPHONE 12. I'm currently using the Galaxy S20 FE 5G but considering swapping over to the IPHONE 12. I'm not too tech savvy but I do like to have the best of the best, the trendiest, the most stylish and the most popular. I hope you can help me out. Thanks for your time, Ray

love this channel he's really fair on both devices.

[@CarlosMartinez-ig6nl]

2:01 Perfectly illustrates my biggest problem with the note.

[@Jlukes]

What it is?

[@CarlosMartinez-ig6nl]

@@Jlukes The fact that the curved screen distorts content.

[@MonkeyBusiness1315]

Sold the Note 20 ultra due to the terrible signal strength I was getting. Also have a z fold 2 (SD865+ in EU) Which has always been perfect signal.

[@Juoppolalli]

I did the same because of signal issues and went back to iphone

[@xiagm-kemasmfadlic150]

Big lie...

[@Juoppolalli]

@@xiagm-kemasmfadlic150 try the exynos version before you say anything

[@Juoppolalli]

@Matuscara ت i has exynos version on note 20 ultra and i had battery life issues and the signal dropped out nothing helped so i went back to iphone :)

[@MonkeyBusiness1315]

@@xiagm-kemasmfadlic150 why would I lie about it? Hahahaha. Note 20 Ultra exynos was poor battery and signal, so I sold it.

[@wesamayeesh]

[@khalidlatif5932]

Thank you for keeping open Tech Chap between Note 20 Ultra VS iPhone 12 Pro Max. Yes my favourite is. .

[@asmaisgatas100]

Where I live the Iphone Pro Max costs double the price of the Note Ultra.....so......Samy for sure.

[@cubbz5]

I have the regular 12pro but I still prefer using my note 20 ultra.. so much to do on that thing plus I love customizing my phone 😁

[@dirkvancauwenberg4553]

but isn t Samsung known for lagging after some time of use ? I had only i phones since the iPhone 4 but I am stuck with the Apple platform (iMac, iPad...)

The Note also adds extended storage with SD card slot. I don’t think the iPhone has that capability

Well, you didnt avoid the daily driver cliché, you still said it 😀. It must definitely be said somehow by KZbin directly or indirectly.

[@phil5743]

Something else important to mention is that Samsung have a great trade in scheme and frequently have promotions. Recently I got £350 for my Huawei P30 Pro and along with other discounts I got my N20U for under £700

[@iNexusVitto]

You didn't mention Good Lock, on One ui 2.5 it was a game changer, now it needs an update but it's so useful.
