What we like about Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Stunning 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a smooth 120Hz adaptive refresh rate
  • Excellent all-around performance with no lag, powered by the Snapdragon 865 Plus processor (US models) and 12GB of RAM
  • Highly capable and versatile camera system that produces excellent photos and videos, with useful features like 5x optical zoom and Pro Video mode
  • The S Pen is very responsive (9ms latency) and useful for note-taking, drawing, and remote control features (Air Actions)
  • Solid battery life that generally lasts a full day of moderate to heavy use, supported by fast wired and wireless charging options
  • Premium build quality with Gorilla Glass Victus and a sleek design, especially the Mystic Bronze color
  • Expandable storage via a microSD card slot (up to 1TB), a feature praised by users for its flexibility
  • Comprehensive 5G connectivity (mmWave and sub-6GHz) makes the device future-proof for network upgrades
  • Features like wireless DeX mode and Link to Windows integration enhance productivity and multitasking capabilities

What we don't like about Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • The camera module is large and protrudes significantly, causing the phone to wobble on a flat surface unless a case is used
  • The price is very high, which many users and reviewers cited as a major drawback
  • The curved display, while beautiful, can lead to accidental touches and make one-handed use difficult
  • Battery life takes a hit when the 120Hz refresh rate is continuously enabled, with some users reporting average endurance
  • The in-display fingerprint sensor can be inconsistent and slow, requiring multiple attempts to work reliably
  • Lack of a traditional 3.5mm headphone jack is a common complaint among users
  • The global Exynos processor version reportedly suffers from worse battery drain and heat issues compared to the US Snapdragon variant
  • The device has reached its end-of-life for major software and security updates, which is a concern for long-term use in 2025/2026

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G (12GB + 256GB model) is a premium, productivity-focused smartphone featuring a large 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate, powered by either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865+ or Samsung Exynos 990 processor (depending on region) and 12GB of RAM. Its main pros include an exceptional camera system with a 108MP main sensor and 5x optical zoom telephoto lens, an incredibly responsive, low-latency S Pen stylus for note-taking and remote control, and robust connectivity features including 5G and expandable storage (up to 1TB via microSD). Primary cons are its high launch price, a significant camera bump that makes the phone wobble on flat surfaces, and the inability to use the maximum QHD+ display resolution simultaneously with the 120Hz refresh rate. The device launched with Android 10 and has since reached its end of software support, capping at Android 13.
