Editorial report
Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G technical sheet
The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G suits buyers looking for a versatile phone with a high-resolution display and a flexible camera setup. The trade-off is its 222 g weight: it is heavier than almost all phones of its time. That matters to anyone who puts a light design first, though the body has IP68 dust and water protection.
Its 6.9″ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display pairs a 120 Hz refresh rate, better than most phones of its time, with 1400 nits peak brightness and 511 ppi pixel density, both among the highest of the period. On the hardware side, 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage are among the best. The 514,485-point AnTuTu v8 result also places performance among the best. Storage is expandable.
The 108 MP main camera uses a 1/1.33″ sensor, among the largest of its time. A periscope telephoto camera adds 4x optical zoom, also among the highest. The 5000 mAh battery holds more than most phones of the period, and 45 W wired charging is among the fastest. It also supports 15 W wireless charging. Connectivity, including 5G, is among the best of its time.
With a NeoScore of 7.4, the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is a compelling all-round choice for buyers who prioritize the display, zoom and battery and can accept its substantial weight.
