For the past two years, we don't just get one Galaxy Note, but two. In 2019 you got a chance to pick a size, and this year… well… (Disk Scratch)
I'm still trying to understand the purpose for the Galaxy Note 20. You don't need to do much research to learn that it's not really what I'd call better than the Note 10+, it's in some ways a step back.. And I'm sure the older model will cost you a lot less money.
I'd even say the only real competition left is trying to determine if going Ultra is really that much better than the choice we had before of going plus. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and this is the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra vs the Galaxy Note 10+

Everyone needs to chill with the 120Hz thing. Like I game in 144hz on PC so I KNOW how it looks, but when I go back to using my 60hz phone, it takes me maybe a minute or two to adjust and then it's fine. Honestly it's such a first world problem, you don't need 120hz to scroll through social media.

You have a good point my man but.... if Samsung is going to charge $1000+ for a phone, it better come with these high-end features. It's actually a value believe it or not. When Apple charges $1000+ and doesn't even offer these features.

I went into my carrier this past Saturday to see if I wanted to “jump” to the Note 20 Ultra. Honestly, it’s beautiful. I decided not to “jump”, I’m down to the last $200 on my Note 10+ payments and can’t justify picking up a $1,300 phone. Planning to make major life changes by possibly leaving the country next year, both my Note 10+ and iPhone 11 will be paid off, and unlocked. Both devices should be good for my journey. Thank you for great review.

[@T0WhiteForYou]

Same here it is nice forsure but I don't feel like it is so much better than the note 10 plus to justify me dropping another 1300. Ill wait for the next gen peobably when the gap gets further away

[@SavageConversations]

I went ahead and kept my note 10+ and still got the 20 Ultra. Unless you use the s*** out of you camera, you're not missing out on too much. Refresh rate is negotiable in everyday use, And the battery life is trash with always on display in comparison. I honestly still love the 10+ and plan on going back to it soon.

@@beerusthedestroyer1579 I know.. And like I said the flagships from the year before got the update about a month later.. And the rumours say Samsung will be even quicker this time. I am happy with my purchase since I already have basicly all the "new" stock Android 11 features for awhile already. Samsung is ahead of stock android in many ways so OS updates are not that important as on i.e a Pixel device. People really don't understand this🤣 Yeah.. LG.. And you complain about Samsung😂 LG are much worse. Thay had a small period they where quick to update and one model even got the latest Android update BEFORE the Pixels.

[@Oystein87]

Nah.. I have had the Note 10+ for a year now and the Note 20 Ultra looks better. But I won't change. Whoit!? The S10 series had the worst designs because the ugly camewracutout to the side. Mostly the S10+ is the ugly duck because the double cutout. Atleast on the Notes it's in the center and smaller.

@@justsomepandawithinternet My Note 10+ has a almost see-thru film on the back so it gets a nice matte carbon look while still keeping the Aurora Glow color. But in a toned down way since it wont "glow" as much in the sun when matte. You can buy it on wish almost for free ;)

[@gerGoPrint3D]

I switched from Note 8 to Note 10 Plus after watching the Note 20 Ultra event and hearing the first impressions. The Note 10 Plus is actually better than the Note 20 Ultra: longer battery life (Exynos), better cameras (2x zoom and higher res ultra wide + dual aperture is better for my use), TOF sensor for 3D printing, lighter, smaller camera bump, more Storage and RAM (the Note 20 Ultra comes with 8GB only in my region) and half price convinced me quickly. Now that I received the same software (One UI 2.5 including wireless Dex, Pro video mode and same Notes app) and a promise for 2 more years of One UI update (I don't care about Android updates, Samsung beats Google in software), I couldn't be happier with this phone!

Great comparison review! Stepped up from Note 5 to Note 20 Ultra. Looked at previous Note models, but prices still too high for aging technology and expiring support. I made logical choice - no regrets. Fantastic! Thank you!

[@beerusthedestroyer1579]

When it's battery dies at some point. Just jet an Iphone11 or 12 or the pro ones if your wallet allows ... The note series is not what it was used to be anymore. Imo its better to buy a phone from industry leader than the ones that copy everything from them and you'll get better software support.in your case it's the least important thing cos you're rocking lineage on a ancient hardware so i think IT doesn't matter what you buy youll flash a custom firmware..i may be wrong tho

I disabled the 120Hz refresh rate on my Note 20 Ultra. I had it on for around 2 days and didn't really see any big difference.

[@beerusthedestroyer1579]

I feel you. The last exynos that was better than a SD was from 2014's Note 4 Exynos 5433. It was faster in cpu intensive tasks than SD805. But still SD805 had better GPU. The only time Exynos had a win was against a botched SD810 due to it's poor thermals.

They are doing a great job of giving everyone a chance to buy one of their phones. They have many phones at all different price points.

@Rads Maneuvers no .. 3 years is the full usefulness of a device ... its just nonsense after that..

I downgraded back to Note 9 from S20 Plus. Here's the problem with the entire S20 line. The battery life with 120hz and 5G cuts it down to about 1/2 the day with my usage. 5G is very handy when you upgrade and download stuff. Insanely fast. The other issue I have is the on-screen finger print sensor just blows. The front screen is not the quickest way to unlock the phone. My Note 9 can be unlocked just pulling out of my pocket. I trained the fingerprint sensor so many times on the S20 and its still slow. The phone also does get hotter. The camera on the S20 is really good, I can't say enough about it. But the Note 9 just so much easier to use with the back fingerprint sensor and the size is just right. I simply hate notch and punch hole camera.

I was considering getting a S10, S10+, or Note10+ used to revisit Android after having an iPhone again since 2018, & the Note20 Ultra is the other Note model I'd consider if the price for it used was more reasonable. I mean this comparison tips it in the favor of the Note10+ bc they have a similar camera system (wide, Ultrawide, & Telephoto lenses) on the rear. And the Note10+ had the better & more interesting colors if you put a clear case on it lol. Or I could get the 20 Ultra in the future when it drops more in price & slap a case on the black or white model although I'd probably get the matte black one

[@ScotHarkins]

S-Pen finally on the right side, being the left, just right for lefties like me...but I'm still on the 10+ until I get an even more compelling reason to move. We ALWAYS have the OtterBox Defender and a good screen protector. Nothing beats trading in a pristine handset. My wife might enjoy the 20U's camera though. Huh...

If the ultra has the best display money can buy, why can't it do QHD at 120hz like the OnePlus 8 pro?

[@theyoutuber273]

Exynos can't do it.

[@jesuscervantesj82]

@@theyoutuber273 the snapdragon can't do it either

[@LexaGamerSrb]

The both can do its just that they won't do it until s21.

[@michaelklym7043]

@@LexaGamerSrb Both Snapdragon and Exynos chips can support it, but Samsung's bridge between the chip and the display can't support the bandwidth needed for QHD 120. OnePlus used something like a dual bridge so the device could support the extra bandwidth needed for QHD 120.

[@LexaGamerSrb]

@@michaelklym7043 I mean more like that if Samsung wanted to they would have made it 120hz qhd+ easily but they didn't want to so it will be a selling point for the s21.

The note 20 Ultra uses DDR5 ram, the note 10+ uses DDR4X DDR5 is 50% faster and 30% more power efficient

[@zawlinnaing9906]

DDR 4x in note 10 plus and with lower 60 Refresh rate i think they have the same battery life yet note 20 ultra is faster. Note 20 ultra could take advantage using with 60 hz but imagine paying that much money for high refresh rate and end up using 60 hz to get long bettery life ( not to mention you cant switch WQHD when you are using 60 hz)

[@beerusthedestroyer1579]

I think note 10+ snapdragon is almost as fast as Exynos Note20 ultra No point in having a faster ram there.

[@Oystein87]

Nope.. Exynos variant of Note 20 Ultra bearly beats the Exynos Note 10+

[@Oystein87]

@@zawlinnaing9906 60Hz is better on a phone than 120Hz unless you game alot. Videos are normaly 24, 30 or 60fps anyway so the Note 20 Ultra will only run 30Hz when watching a 30Hz video since it has variable refreshrate UP TO 120Hz. And that is better than beeing locked to 120Hz all the time like the S20 Ultra. What do you mean you can't switch to WQHD when using 60Hz? The is when you CAN switch to WQHD.. Only in 120Hz mode you can'æt use that.

[@1ce2berg]

@@Oystein87 the higher refresh rate is mostly for scrolling and smoother animations, since alot of people don't game

[@Maximusgat]

I just made the switch from the note 10 plus to the note 20 ultra. Basically I like the 5g option, the 120hz screen, and the better camera. I wasn't feeling the loss of internal storage. I had the s20 ultra before and it was so big, it was uncomfortable (thats what she said). I thought the note 20 ultra would also be awkward to hold, but surprisingly it's almost as comfortable as the note 10 plus. I really like the screen size and screen to body ratio on the ultra, it seems to have more screen, smaller bezels and smaller camera cut out, than the 10 plus. The battery life also seems to last pretty long. I was afraid it would be a noticeable difference in battery life between the two, but I cannot see a substantial difference. The camera is definitely better on the ultra. Overall I thought I'd regret making the switch, but I don't. This is an amazing phone.

Greetings from Hong Kong. Just got my new Note 10+ yesterday (16-1-2022). It’s hard to find but still available if you dig deep. Apparently, only black and white ones are available. I chose the black one. It’s a 12G ROM 256G RAM, dual sim 4G version, not 5G. But who needs the 5G transmission? It’s US$533.3 (HK$4160). I traded in my 2-yr old A71 at US$179.5 (HK$1400). So, finally paid US$354. For a brand new Note 10+, I think my decision was right. The phone is great. I’ve got the latest software upgraded to One UI v3.1 which is the latest version. I can even link it to my PC wirelessly with Samsung Dex. That is great as well. In fact, if not because of the need to work under the windows environment, Note 10+ can replace a PC if hooked wirelessly to a monintor and then with mouse and Keyboard. The S-Pen is great and it’s the main reason I am buying the note series. Note 20 Ultra does not worth the price. A mere 128G for the 20 ultra compared to 256G is no brainer not-to-choose decision, even though the battery is 4500mh vs 4300. Probably, will only need to upgrade 2-3 years later.

I've owned every Note since the Note 3. Currently own a Note 10 Plus and Note 20 Ultra. Both are unlocked and direct from Samsung. The Note 10 Plus us beautiful, no doubt. However, the N20 Ultra is another level of beauty. I have the bronze color with matt finish. Main reason I purchased the phone was for the added camera hardware and louder speakers. I purposely keep my phone locked to LTE/LTE + and at 1440 QHD. I have found that this combination allows for battery life comparable to the my Note 10 Plus. Finally, I got this phone for a steal. $750 out the door, unlocked and with $200 in store credit while trading in my old Note 9. Cheers 🍻

[@gabrielhernandez3423]

Is the color more of a bronze 9r pink, just curious as im waiting for mine in the mail.

[@mrgadget4863]

First I decided to keep my 10+. In Germany the 5G coverage is good. This and the improved trade in options being the main reason why I finally switched. . Btw I would never consider using a clumsy cover. I think the Pitaka aramid cover is one of the only suitable ones that does not spoil the looks and provides protection.

[@ashishjoshi8525]

I traded my ever so awesome Note 10 + plus for the Note 20 Ultra exactly for the same reasons that you have given. The camera and the 120hz screen on the Note 20 Ultra are two very strong reasons for opting the Note 20 Ultra. Well said

Very fair comparison except I disagree about 120hz. Unless you're a gamer you will hardly notice a difference except for reduced battery life.
