Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra Review: ULTRA enough?

[@mastermejia2431]

I have the S20 ultra. And I love it. I haven't had any problems with with it. Love this phone

[@tommys2077]

After my trade in I payed $1100 and got their buds+ with a wireless charger for free... yeah the autofocus ain't all that great but its not a big issue for me. The S20 Ultra is an excellent phone.

[@lamar310]

I own the iPhone 11 Pro Max and the GS20 Ultra as my business phone. The Ultra is great phone when it comes to the core features...screen, battery life, speed, and camera (without the gimmicks). I took advantage of the $600 Best Buy deal to help ease the pain of the high price tag. So far I'm pleased with this phone because the great big screen and all day battery life are a great combination

[@batsywatsy]

The auto focus issue will be fixed through an update...it's already rolled out in south korea

[@andyH_England]

@@batsywatsy Yes and Korean KZbin reviews after the update confirm it is not fixed yet. Many pros say that it is a hardware issue as it is not dual-pixel like the s20+ (no issues). If you are into videos I would not buy the s20 Ultra until you know if it is fixable. $1400 for no AF in video, is a poor choice.l

[@HABO2210]

@@andyH_England one could forgive measly SQ on Ultra (if that happened), but having autofocus issues on a phone that's PRIMARILY made for photo/video is a dealbreaker IMO.

@@batsywatsy i just use the pro mode lol, its so much better then the auto mode.

[@lamar310]

I bought the GS20 Ultra on day 1 and I wasn't impressed with this phone initially. The auto focus issue and overhyped zoom features were a letdown on a $1,400 phone. By day 3 I fell in love because I went to go watch a Lakers game and then attended a birthday party. The battery lasted all day long, all my pics in the day and night came out great, and the screen impressed everyone when I showed a couple videos from KZbin. I then realized that once you focus on the great screen, great battery life, it's fast speed, and the regular front and rear cameras without the gimmicks...it's a great phone. Is it worth $1,400? That depends on your income and current financial stability

[@andyH_England]

Yeah, but there will be many phones coming in the next few months that match or better the s20 Ultra. Perspective is needed as the Ultra is the first release in the year and rarely is it the best, though probably will be the most expensive by far. The OPPO Find X2 Pro looks as good and the P40 Pro Ultra along with the Xperia 1 #2 and the OP8 Pro, etc. My choice may be the ROG Phone 3, that will have a better battery and are using the latest Samsung display.

[@1ce2berg]

@@andyH_England the difference with those phones and the Samsung (excluding the Sony) is that they use 2D biometrics (vs 3d - like google, apple, samsung and sony) and are not as secure (can't make payments or use banking apps).........

[@1ce2berg]

@@maratutebayev340 lmao I don't live in such a place where that is a concern. It's more for the convenience of using the biometrics for banking apps vs putting in Ur passwords and using it for google pay or whatever. The added bonus is that it is MORE secure than 2D that the cheaper Chinese companies use (oppo, xiomi, OnePlus, etc). Also the companies are less reliable and less responsible cause less liability cause smaller companies. That comes with worse customer service too (check the forums). You can't just say biometrics are not secure at all, they are still more secure than nothing. Look at how many people are getting knockout out and mugged for their cellphones vs hacked for info (like banking info and personal ID)......

Great review as always, I totally agree, mine went back as I feel for the money it should be Ultra out the box and this isn't it, who knows when the update will come out to fix the camera issues and I only had 30 days and I don't think the update will sort out all the camera issues.

Some of the reviews out there almost convinced me to return my Ultra. After really using the camera and the 10 optical zoom I'm definitely keeping it.

Currently running a Pro Max, thought about upgrading to this but I think it’s too expensive for what you’re getting. The 120hz screen is beautiful and battery life is good as well but it just doesn’t quite feel “Ultra”. Maybe I’ll go for one when the price drops or a OnePlus 8 Pro as it seems that will bring many of the features on a less expensive and slightly smaller device.

[@lavitra.]

But do you really need to switch already?

[@Azn_Light]

ur prob going to get iphone pro max 12 when they give out the 120hz and maybe 5g and you will pay more than what s20 is worth

[@jdaniels4898]

I doubt OP 8 Pro will be cheap. Last years model was just about 150£ cheaper in my country than s10+. It's still some bit of the money, but still closer to 1000, than to 500. After you reach certain psychological barrier, bit extra doesn't matter. Like, 500 or 550, 750 or 850. Difference of 10-13% only. If we speaking bout Apple, 11 pro max costs just about the same as new s20u. It' a bit cheaper...the most basic model with low storage.

[@skinkly]

The pro max when it came out was the same price so Apple pretty much is laughing at you

[@M2habibi]

Honestly if I got any phone from the S20 lineup it would be the Ultra purely because I'm not a fan of settling if there's better version than what I own. I'll be sticking to my 7 Pro till the 8 Pro releases.

[@JacksonWalter735]

If you have a Costco membership, they usually have the best deals after 2 months. A few months after the S10 lineup came out, you could get a S10 for $419 and S10+ for $519. Less than 2 months after the Note 10 lineup came out, the Note 10 was $469 and the Note 10+ was $619. You don't have to pay any additional fees at Costco and there are even better deals available if you change carriers or add an additional line. While this particular S20 deal from Costco is over now, if you pre-ordered the S20 Ultra, buy 2 S20 Ultras, and are fine with getting a gift card back, you could have technically gotten a S20 Ultra at $600 each ($500 if you include the $100 preorder Samsung Credit if you pre-ordered before March 5th).

[@mattcossey]

I could be wrong but from my time selling phones the only time you have that high of a down payment is when they think you’re committing fraud. Is it the same store you normally go to? And I last time i used jump on demand there was no down payment

[@tfahad2051]

I have been using this phone for 2 weeks and here's my review: Battery has been great. For an average phone user that spends a lot of time watching KZbin and Netflix, and lots of social media, the battery lasts me nearly a day. I get 8 hours of on screen time on the phone and I do not take my charger home after work on the weekdays. This is with 120 Refresh Rate on and the brightness above 50% for most of the part. When watching KZbin, obviously it's very close to 100%, if not at 100%. The fingerprint scanner is not that great. My Google Pixel 2 XL had the BEST fingerprint scanner I've ever used on a smart phone. A slight touch on it and my phone would look. With this phone, you have to REALLY hold down on it, and sometimes it does not work. The screen is gorgeous. It's Samsung so you expect the quality to be great and it is. The punch hole on top people cry about, I barely ever notice it's there until I look for it. The build feels very solid. You could knock someone out with it as it does weigh a lot, due to the glass on front and back and a beautiful, monster battery. It feels premium. I was expecting the camera to be the best. That's why I bought it. Samsung claims it'll make a you wanna take more photos/videos but THAT IS NOT THE CASE AT ALL. My LG V20 took better photos. I use Pixel 2 XL to take photos instead of this $1400 phone with new sensors/software. The video isn't that great because the focus is still a big issue, for videos and pictures. The pictures this phone takes, I could get that from a $400 phone. If you want to buy the phone with a camera, stick with Pixel lineup or the new iPhones. It makes me mad now that I'm writing about how bad the camera is. South Koreans have the latest update on the auto-focus but the quality is not that great either. My brother's S10+ takes much better photos than this Galaxy Ultra S20 I have! Definitely buy a protective case and screen protector. It's worth spending extra $50 for protection. It was water proof. It has been "toilet drop" tested, not on purpose of course. I wiped it with alcohol layers after layers with tissue and so far there has been no issues with speakers and touchscreen sensitivity. Is this worth $1400? Absolutely not. I DO love the big screen that looks incredible, and I DO love the powerful speakers, and the battery life is just simply amazing. You are able to customize it exactly to your liking, on the home screen, lock screen, and Always On Display. I have the Always On Display and the battery still doesn't go to 0% after 24 hours, idle or not. The $1400 price tag is there for the so-called the best camera on the back, which is beaten hands down by Pixel 2 XL that has an older processor/sensor. I could've had a similar experience with S20+ and not pay that much. I gave up on the camera/video and try to forget the phones can be used for camera. This phone will not make you enjoy photography. Again, I pull my Pixel 2 XL phone out to take pictures, so this phone is worth it if you want to enjoy a new phone experience.

[@avenuePad]

Yup. The days of stock Android offering the "best" experience with the "essential" features has been over for at least a few years now. One UI, EMUI 10, Oxygen OS are all better alternatives, IMO, than stock Android. Yeah, you wait a few more months for updates, but you get way more features. That said, there are things missing sometimes. For example, I have the P30 Pro with EMUI 10/Android 10 and it's butter smooth and has way more features, but it is missing one feature I really want - the ability to change accent colours. But that's literally the only thing I feel I'm missing and all the other extra features built into EMUI make up for it by a mile. The only other issue is that unless you have a Pixel, you are pretty much guaranteed only two years worth of major updates (security updates for longer normally). So, that's important if you want to keep your phone for more than two years.

As for the camera I like the zoom a lot but the rest of the picture quality is not night and day better compared to Note.

The camera is disappointing. The 120hz it on HD is disappointing. The fact that we in the UK get the exynos chip which has been proven to be significantly inferior to the snapdragon variant. Yet we pay the same amount of not more! Iv never before been tempted to return a Samsung phone. But I'm very much considering returning my ultra and waiting for the OnePlus 8 pro.

I see a lot of reviewers comparing the iPhone 11 Pro Max at the base model of 64 gb trying to make it seem Samsung is so much more expensive when it’s not. Samsung offers better trade in offers and promos through their website. Apple offers none of that, they don’t even give you the best value for your phone. Apple’s 11 pro max 512gb is $1449, no expandable storage with 4gb ram and it’s not 5G. Can you imagine what the price will be this year for the 5G capable iPhones?? This is supposed to be the year iPhone changes their design. The notch display is still up in the air. Ppl complain about updates but sometimes apple’s updates cause more harm than good. So to me I feel you can’t go wrong if you decide to go with Samsung at least their phones don’t slow down when a new one comes out. Apple makes amazing phones especially with their software but it has its down sides too.

[@s3atothemoon]

At first I was considering it, but it's simply not worth it at that price. 100mp won't make a difference if your photo is out of focus

[@torezgermy2]

Thank you for mentioning the whole software update thing Pixel fanboys always bring up. The latest version of Android is usually catching up to Samsung's UI when it comes to features and yes even though Samsung phones are only supported for two years, they get security updates way longer than that.

[@DarkSkinT]

Security updates are pointless give me the next UI

[@Jimmyageek]

Its selling New for $650 in HK, is it worth it ?

Xperia Z ultra was a good phone. I had the Honor media pad x2, Honor note 8 then Honor note 10. This phone is kinda small compared to them. Not sure why these crazy aspect ratios.

[@bencancio914]

I've read comments of youtubers crapping on this phone's camera but my main choices to get this phone are battery life ,speeds, storage,and hdr+ and 120hz refresh rates👍

[@ArrowStudios]

Samsung just fixed the Auto focusing issues on exynos models... I would reconsider whether it changes photography or not.

[@STVN20]

Hi Sir, I would like to ask why do you think Samsung used PDAF camera system on S20 Ultra if they already have Dual Pixel PDAF camera system available which far more superior than the normal Pdaf? I hope you can answer my question please.

[@salrodriguez536]

any one knows what is the middle hole in between the upper cameras?

[@stevewalker6396]

I was on the fence about this phone. But your review makes me wait and see what else pops up. Thanks.

[@cliffordhaines6495]

Had both note 10+ and this.... going back to note 10+. Cam is nice but it is noticeable you get bad pics. Note 10+ get it right 9 out 10 ultra I'm looking at 6-7 out of 10. It is tad being picky but after having a baby shower and bday party I missed some good pics and for this price of the phone this is not the best.... only only thing I like love you don't get from others is that 120hz screen. But... that pen is a better trade off. Don't get me wrong. Great phone. But it's has its problems which you shouldn't have not wait for a update to maybe come in a year to fix....

[@10tenman10]

I like the phone but will likely wait until the price drops before considering it

[@Fjsbdjdh]

1:20 rocking that naked phone like a goddamn gangsta,

[@dp5345]

Totally disagree about the battery life. I turned it back down to 60Hz in order to get through the day. I didn't use it nearly as much as you state you do and get nowhere near a whole days use with 40% remaining. Also, it crashes a lot. Scrolling locks up frequently and pics won't attach to text messages without crashing. Very disappointed in this phone.

[@rayg1022able]

I love Samsung current have a Note 8, the only thing I dont like with Samsung and I just found out is with each phone you only get 2 major updates then your done which I feel Samsung should extend this especially the money you pay for these devices...

[@simplesmith3704]

Everything is fine until you get the exynos version of it which once again is not even near the SD version in terms of performance and efficiency. Plus the exynos version uses the inferior Samsung camera sensors rather than the Sony ones the SD uses. Should be one version worldwide powered by SD cause I doubt exynos will even reach the SD ever.

[@theanomity3185]

Wow, that is some good photos 😍

[@tariq7408]

Samsung needs to change the approach of their flagship devices. I am a huge Samsung fan, and I have been since the Galaxy SII. Samsung used to create devices that were more advanced, priced more efficiently, and more feature packed than other smartphone markets (Google, Apple, etc.) It seems as of lately, they've rushed the production and release of their devices, pushing devices that will later receive an 'update', rather than perfecting the devices before they are released to the general public. For example, from 2012-2015, Samsung released their S line phones anywhere from April to June, and they were AMAZING. The S3 was feature packed and versatile, and the S4 drastically advanced on that theory. The S5 was more useful due to the better screen, battery life, and IP rating. The S6 was a huge reformation of the S-line, providing a gorgeous design, a multitude of usable features, and the best camera of 2015. Ever since the S7 in 2016, it seems as though Samsung is becoming complacent in their innovation. They produce phones with generally the same physical blueprint every year, similar cameras that no longer best Apple, Google, or Huawei, mid-ranged battery life, and devices that lost their edge in speed to Apple. Drab design and a small bevy of color options, removing stuff and charging extra to bring those features back. They're heading in the same direction as Apple, as well as the rest of Android devices, and frankly, I'm highly disappointed.

[@blackiceh1983]

So what would you recommend as an alternative if you don't want to spend a lot of money and your not a Samsung fan?

[@Pocketnow]

Next video coming up 😉

[@semirhuskic8028]

I was a Samsung fan i bought s10+the day one at full price, but now i am angry at them if they (they will) keep driving the price up next time i will buy one plus and be their fan

[@TechLidBull]

You should maybe be mad at yourself. You can find the s10 plus for less than $500 now. Always wait if you want to pay less

[@semirhuskic8028]

@@TechLidBull yes i was also mad at myself. But i can't wait when after 3 years the time has come to upgrade i don't have the nerves to wait a few months and watch the phone been reviewed and i don't have it

[@brianbell2176]

Great review. I'm loving the phone and have been off charge for 2 full days with somewhat light use. However, Samsung really needs to push that camera update. I have 3 days left in return window and this goes back if no update. I want to trust them, but they shouldn't have released the phone like this.

[@Pocketnow]

Yeah we’re still waiting for it

[@ShaKmaProductions]

Love your videos, try this...shoot 100X with flash on, it's a hack where it stops the post-processing and you will end up with a sharper image, let us know.

Amazing phone!!!!

[@bugattipenner]

It supports any flavor of 5G????? --> It lacks mmWave antennas in almost every country excerpt of the US and China and maybe some more. EU model definitely don´t have them

[@Pocketnow]

Well, that’s because no carrier in the EU has mmWave 🤷🏻‍♂️. Don’t the cell towers have to come first?

problem with quad bayer is focus.

[@christmg4682]

Definitely Ultra enough but that asking price should never be a price of a phone, never

[@rav004]

I think Samsung should improve the software support for this phone at least. And they definitely need to improve the camera issues and some other stuff with an update as soon as possible.

[@asuraborn]

Why does samsung still use exynos ? Why can't we get the good stuff?

[@premgaru8556]

Ananthan Simple. It works out cheaper for them to dish out the Exynos to UK and Asian customers.

[@andyH_England]

Their profitable market is the US where they have a large hardcore fanbase and influencers support so they sell the best to them. I think Samsung is investing a lot in improving Exynos and next year they will be on par with the Snapdragon. This year they have closed the gap and compared to their 2019 Exynos a big improvement. They cannot offer a choice as no one will choose the Exynos!

[@asuraborn]

@@andyH_England Huawei makes their own kirin chipsets which are just as powerful if not more than Qualcomm's processors. Samsung needs to step up.

[@c2g1980]

The HTC Ultra was actually kinda dope and the camera was phenomenal for that time period.
