Samsung Note 20 vs Note 20 Ultra Comparison: Everything That's Different & Which One You Should Buy

[@altierilopez8806]

I've been saving for the note 20 ultra, I've never used a note device before but om excited nevertheless.

If the regular Note 20 was $700, would you buy it? p.s. a note on battery life: 4500mah (Ultra) vs 4300mah (regular) but I'm still working on screen on time and longevity. Let's just say the Ultra seems...not great so far 👀 ------------------- Samsung Note20 & Note20 Ultra: techdaily.deals/Note20deals Note20 (Amazon): geni.us/WvtJI5 Note20 Ultra (Amazon): geni.us/qIo5U

[@PadmaDorjee]

I have literally search for days for a good comparison between these two phones. I have watched well over 30 different videos and none of them have come close to the precise details you have given in this, especially in regards to the camera screen and S pen. Thank you very much.

[@knightstemplar4274]

I like how people say from time to time that glass on phones are getting annoying. So they make two phones best for both worlds. And all I here is every person complain about a plastic back, when I actually miss it. Nevered asked for my phone to be glass back in the first place. Remember changing your batteries... the good old days honestly.

[@shaunmcfarlane4989]

Lol let me get a glass back phone to cover with a plastic case 🤦🏾‍♂️. My current note 10+ back glass is cracked. Note 20 Ultra on the way to do it all over again 😁

[@MohammedHassan-ft2ym]

i think samsung didn't make the regular note 20 to sell it, it was trap to make people see the note 20 ultra as "cheap" to sell more ultra than regular

[@Untilted_Tundra]

Note 20 is gd. People fotget tge camera quality, speakers, s-pen, battery, display, underdisplay ultrasonic fingerptint scanner, sd865+, or exynos 990,still a power house, productivity, charging speeds, and more. But people hate the note 20 cz of build quality only. Now i agree on this. Also i agree on putting at least a 90hz display. But still a good phone

[@simonjohnhinton1938]

the problem was the price gap between that and the ultra. it should have been at least 450 difference.

[@hot2handle66666667]

For what you get on both phones they are great phones. I did have both from when they were released and have kept both. My daughter is now using my note20 5g and i use the ultra but i do fluctuate between both as and when I choose. I can get on absolutely fine with either. They're great.

[@1adayla]

This is the best comparison of the two. I was giving a chance to puchasing note 20. But there is just too much compromising. An added expanded storage would have been perfect.

[@BornProfessional]

Pefer note 20 regular in 2022 dec,as most of the 80% users use case n prefer plastic for light weight, flat screen n camera which is similar as ultra,it depends different users opinion n perception as well!!!

If 60Hz and plastic back is not a big deal... Then go for a note 20. No curved edges 💯

[@zaimozairc]

Note 10+ is a better option

[@-Muhammad_Ali-]

I stubbornly sticked on getting the Ultra as I thought that was the top of the line. Now that I bought it yesterday I cannot stand its sharp corners and out of proportion long body. That together with silly curved screen edges gives a horrible video watching experience. Now i will change it to Note 20. As for plastic or glass back I will always go for plastic. It is light, cheap to replace and lastly will be covered by the protective cover anyways. The only downside I get with Note 20 is the lack of an SD card slot. Should I mention the gigantic camera bump on the ultra one?

Yes. Try eBay or Amazon. I just bought the Ultra from eBay, it's an "open box" meaning someone probably tried it & returned it. So it's practically brand new 👍 I have a Note 20 now, but I really need the extra storage. Mine is almost out.

[@harvestmoon1033]

Just got the Ultra. Honestly if theres not much of a difference in terms of performance, I'd switch it to a regular Note 20 as the Ultra is humongous almost like a tablet in my hands and it can't barely fit my pocket. Also I get wrist strains as its too heavy.

[@hunterrutz1412]

Not entirely correct on the storage specs there. The 256GB is for the Exynos model. The Snapdragon models start at 128GB. Samsung kind of backed themselves into a corner it seems like. Last year's Note 10 and Note 10 Plus both has 256GB regardelss of processor. So now, since Samsung decided not to uograde the Exynos chip for the Note 20, they're sacrificing storage on the Snapdragon models so the Exynos users feel like they get equal value for money. Still, now the Snapdragon users feel like we get shorted a little. Honestly, it's a lose-lose decision no matter how you stack the options and Samsung just had to make a call. I think the SD card slot in the Ultra saves it a little, but you have to pay $1300 for that hybrid sim/SD tray. They just cut too many features from the standard Note 20. And some of the cuts don't make any sense! It's like someone walked into the conference room one day and said "Spread put the Note 20 Ultra plans on the table. I'm gonna spill my coffee on them and whatever it lands on, we'll cut it out of the standard version."

[@b-nice9100]

[@stevencorbo1220]

Samsung doesn't bring back the MicroSD card slot for expansion I'm going to stop using Samsung products I'm sick and tired of Samsung copying apple and removing features.

[@karebear9128]

Couldn't agree more! I'll be sticking with the Ultra for as long as possible, that extra storage is very important. Where I live there are so many "dead areas" and there is no access to the cloud because of it.

[@brpixels]

@2:20 The problem with a lot of these youtubers taking a shit on note 20 because they took the price tag too literally. I bough this baby for 700$ after a bunch of coupons and deals. Its like bitching about a car's features based on the sticker price which no one literally pays. Even a dealer knows that he would end up selling a car way less than its sticker.... Also I'm tired about the crybabies judging glass=premium & plastic=cheap Guess what I had the cash for the ultra, but I CHOOSE to get a plastic back ? why I'm tired of seeing cobweb breaks on my note 9 and tired of rocking a bulky case to "protect" a fragile glass back. To me cheap and foolish is buying a 20$ plastic case to cover a glass back fragile bitch of a phone. It's like you ended up paying extra in the first place just so you can put in extra effort to protect it while deriving 0 functional value , all the while rocking a plastic case which you derided initially.

I have the note 20 ultra and I like the phone. However between the two I would try to get the note 20 ultra. Might as well get your money worth. The note 20 is NOT worth 1000. I lacks a micro SD card slot and some camera features. Really I have seen people selling the note 20 for 700 brand new. That is a bargain if you can get it for that price and trust the seller. But if money is the issues and staying within the budget, I would try to find the note 10 plus. If you look around it is going for around 400 to 500 dollar. It has better specs than the note 20. The processor isn't much different.

[@parthoomphy7214]

Please do s10 plus Vs note 20 ultra. I’m super confused should I upgrade or wait for S21. I want that 120hz, smaller holepunch & improved cameras but that exynos chip & no 120hz @ 1440p is stopping me from upgrading.

The plastic back and flatter screen of the Note 20 are a great, intelligent move by Samsung. Durability and lack of visual distortions are in favor of consumers. The problem for the price here is Samsung loading tons of bloatware on their expensive phones. At these prices, all bloatware is a bad joke.

Deeply disappointed in Samsung been a note user since note 2

[@ScrewTikTok]

I am also torn on whether to get note 20 or 20 ultra. I just went to the retail to compare these two phones myself. I was surprised that Note 20 Ultra Mystic Bronze in reality felt like plastic (despite the spec saying it is the newest gorilla glass victus). It really did not feel much better than Note 20's plastic. If anything, note 20 ultra felt and sounded harder upon tapping, and note 20 sounded more hollow. But I seriously wouldn't say Ultra felt any better upon tapping. Mildly disappointed. What's even more disappointing is that when I went home and tapped in my mom's S10, and even my own S7... Those old models FEEL SO MUCH MORE PREMIUM AND BETTER than the ultra note series. Even S21 series feel less premium than S10/S7.... BY A LOT.... I'm not even exaggerating..... Note 20 Ultra felt like normal plastic, and Note 20 felt like very slightly cheaper plastic than Ultra. The S10 felt like real premium glass, and S7 felt like a much more expensive and premium plastic. Also, just for reference, iPhone 12 pro (which I also tried tapping the same day just now) felt like very similar material as Note 20 Ultra, but iPhone's felt a bit harder (thus more premium) upon tapping. Although iPhone 12pro's feel beats Note 20 ultra, it severely loses to Samsung S10/S7. These are obviously subjective, but I can't express enough how unbiased I can possibly be....I bought my mom the S10, and I bought my dad the iPhone 12 pro. Right now I am leaning towards buying a new Samsung for my mom, and I just take over her S10... This is how much I was surprised how relatively premium S10 feels, compared to Note 20 series.
