About this deal
Samsung’s own One UI is overlaid, so it’ll look different to the software you may have used on other Android phones that aren’t made by Samsung, but the design is attractive and it’s easy to use. This is particularly pertinent when you’re mobile gaming as it allows for a more immersive experience and could even give you the edge over an opponent, but it makes everyday things like scrolling through your social media feeds look smoother too. It’s larger than the cell in the S10, and we’ve found the battery life to be strong with typical use – this phone isn’t going to last you much longer than one day of normal use, but what smartphone does? Of course, you'll be able to pick the S20 up at a discount now, and the older phone is actually better in some ways. On 18 August 2020, Samsung revealed that all variants of the S20 series would be supported for three generations of Android software updates, and 4 years of security updates.
You give up a bit of battery life and high-band 5G (except on Verizon), but you keep the screen, camera, and low-to-mid-band 5G capabilities.For example, if you have a pair of Samsung’s Galaxy Buds Plus wireless buds you’ll be able to charge these on the back of your phone, and you could also lend your juice to a friend’s compatible phone, although note that this will drain your own battery particularly quickly. We test in 10 different shooting environments to make sure the cameras are consistent and use mannequins with different skin tones. The Galaxy S20+ has the same 5G hardware as the Galaxy S20 Ultra, but I found that it performed slightly better on Verizon's 5G network than the Ultra did. You want a phone with a vivid, detailed and easily readable display, so we check how the screen looks in different light conditions and use microscopes to asses sharpness and resolution.
inch screen with a fast 120Hz refresh rate, 5G download speeds (where available), high-spec cameras on both sides of the phone, and a big battery to boot.On our GFXBench graphics benchmarks, the phone was able to hit 60 or 120fps depending on screen mode, as long as the scene being rendered wasn't too strenuous. It is the first smartphone lineup to receive USB fast-charger certification from the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF). The telephoto lens is even better than the one on the Galaxy S10 too, allowing you to shoot high-quality 3x optical zoom shots or stretch all the way to a 30x digital zoom. In addition to charts on the phone's specifications, marketing material and images of the phones themselves in real life were leaked.
