Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra // The Best Phone for Windows Users! By Matthew Moniz

So today, you're, probably gonna, get bombarded by a ton of Galaxy Note: 20 ultra videos, specifically camera comparisons, where they'll like zoom in between two different cameras and be like. Oh my god, look very closely. I'm zooming in, can you see the shadows? Are 0.5 percent brighter in the right photo? Can you see it, and those are great if you're into cameras, and your stickler for those minor details that make no difference to your life watch those videos? But I want to talk about a few things that make this phone truly different, and the first thing is the windows.10 integration like this is something a lot of android users always wanted with Windows 10, because apple users have it so normally on their devices. This is something that's been working for them for years and, and it looks like Samsung and Microsoft's partnership is making that happen. Yes, the earphone app is there and some general features like text messaging. Moving photos are available to most android devices, but this year we have the ability to use apps on the phone using windows, 10 and like that is just so convenient like if you're sitting at your desk, you don't have to pick up your phone to post an Instagram picture.

You can do it on Windows 10. , if you're sitting at your desk- and you want to respond to an app that doesn't work with the text messaging, your phone app. You can just load the app in Windows 10. I know you can do this through DEX by loading up decks, but then that's another piece of software that you have to worry about. The second thing is the Xbox and Samsung partnership.

Technically, yes, you're going to be able to play project cloud across all android devices, but the big benefit of going with a Samsung device. Is that there's a lot of incentives to purchase the device because you get added on accessories like controllers and an Xbox game pass membership if you buy this device for three months, but I think the bigger takeaway from this is microtransactions. Microsoft doesn't want to use the Google Play Store because they have to use their fee structure, which is a lot higher than whatever deal that Samsung made with Microsoft. So if you're buying games, and you're purchasing virtual items, it's probably going to be cheaper using a galaxy device because it's going through the galaxy store, and the third thing is the s pen. This year, you can now write on the screen, and it's a lot faster, nine milliseconds.

This is iPad Pro territory and look for most people. This is not a big deal, because you're simply just pulling out your phone and writing down a quick note, but funny enough there's actually a community of users who buy notes specifically to use them as tools to draw and sketch I've met them. I've seen their artwork, I mean it's tougher to do on such a smaller screen. We have to remember a lot of people can't afford to buy an expensive phone buying an iPad and buying a computer with a Wacom tablet, depending on what time of type of work they're into but having it all on. One device with a nine millisecond response time allows those drawings to be done.

Fluidly. Now this design has become a classic for Samsung. It's still using that boxy look and if you look at the note, 10 plus they're very similar this year, you're, obviously getting more cameras, you're getting bigger cameras and a lot of people are complaining about the bump on the back of the phone. Yes, this is the biggest camera bump you're going to see on a smartphone. It's massive and trust me when you see it in person, you'll see what I'm talking about, but I think they did a good job of making it look.

Classy like these little rings around the camera, make this phone look so luxurious and when you combine that with the frosted back, it's its different like it's. It's its a much different, feel and look to the glossy flat back of the note, 10 plus now. That being said, you are going to want to put a case or a skin on this brand channel. Sponsor has a great selection, and what that will do is it will level out the camera? You want the camera to be leveled, because when this is sitting on your desk, you don't want it to get scratched and if you're using your phone on your desk, you don't want the phone to make this noise and kind of trample over when you're touching the screen. Now it does make a noise when you shake the camera.

This is normal, don't freak out and think you got a bad device. Even the s20 ultra. Does this it's just the periscope lens. It's a loose part. It's meant to be like that.

It's its working as intended photo quality has been improved this year, it's still using the same 108 megapixel sensor. The big difference, though, is that they swapped out the 48 megapixel sensor that was in the s20 ultra and installed a 12 megapixel sensor instead and left the 12 megapixel ultra-wide. Now what this does are, instead of getting 10 times, optical zoom you're going to get five, and instead of a hundred times, zoom you're getting 50. Quite frankly, 100 times zoom on the ultra was a pure gimmick. It looks like trash 50 times.

Zoom still doesn't look that great, but it is an improvement over a hundred times, zoom auto, focusing so much better than the galaxy s20 ultra. This thing is hit or miss nighttime mode. I don't know what Samsung's doing, but, oh my god so much better on the note.20 ultra they've definitely fine-tuned their computational photography to offer brighter and punchier photos and significantly better nighttime photos. Battery life. In the note 20 ultra is good, but it's not great and the reason being is that the battery is 500 William hours smaller than the battery inside the s20 ultra.

They had to do this because there's an s pen, and therefore they didn't have enough space to put a bigger battery. This also means you can't use 120 hertz at HD, for whatever reason Samsung still continues to omit this. They probably felt it doesn't meet up to their standards in terms of overall battery life, so they kept it disabled. So the big question becomes, should you buy the note 20 ultra and look? This is an expensive phone, it's thirteen hundred dollars, but the thing is it's actually cheaper than the s20 ultra and, quite frankly, now that this phone is on the market, the s20 ultra makes no sense anymore. It never made sense from the beginning, because you're getting a lot more value from the cheaper s20 and s20 plus.

So now that the note 20 is here, the s20 ultra is dead in the water. Now, if you are upgrading from a note, 9 a note 8, this is going to be a fantastic upgrade. But my recommendation to you is wait a couple of months because at the end of the day, Samsung tends to discount their smartphones around holiday seasons, and you can save yourself a couple of hundred bucks or have options to bundle it with great accessories so watch it wait for the price drop then buy it anyways that wraps up this review.
