Samsung Galaxy S21 vs S21+ Review:
• Samsung Galaxy S21 vs ...
The Galaxy S20 Ultra is a phone with insane specs on paper, and the only thing that’s perhaps more eye-catching, is the crazy $1400 starting price. Samsung have basically taken every spec from their S10 models and turned the dial up to 11...or 20...and considering this spec sheet, it’s easy to get excited about the new S20 lineup. But with reports of major camera bugs, is the S20+ actually a better phone overall?
In this review, we’ll be comparing all the differences in specs and features to see not only which of these phones offers the best value for money, but also answering the question: which of these phones is actually best?

InsideTech thank you. Camera was boring
Cool
Absolutely. Pretty misleading from Samsung...
I think is the best review of s20.. and i saw every one..because i am looking to buy or the ultra, s20+ or p40 pro! Great clip!!
Choco Loco n
This is the most meaningful, complete and useful comparison about these Samsung phones I have ever seen on CZcams . Keep up the good work.
Wow, thanks a lot!
I went with the S20 +. I just don't see spending the extra money on the ultra for a camera. I love my s20 + and I would totally recommend it over the ultra.
Absolutely not worth the extra money. Glad you’re enjoying it!
Same here as well
BTS Edition!
I went with the s20 plus b4 watching this video.i never go with the base model,I either go with the plus or the top.
@Inam khan Official If the S20 ultra was 100 dollars cheaper, would you still buy the ultra or would you buy S20 plus?
I don’t know who would dislike a quality video like this. Ignore him mate, you produce such quality videos and deserve so many more subscribers. Keep it up!
Wow, that's so nice to hear! Thank you!
They are Apple fans
Luca Nicolae I’d take Apple any day over an Android , but I’m still interested in the review videos.
@@iwantiguodala3798 So you take an Apple any day over an Android and you switch back to the Android when is night
@V P You are saying this because you had the wrong phones!
Just bought the S20 plus 👍👍🔥🔥🔥
how is experience now? still good buy?
Just the type of comparison i wanted! Thank you.
Honestly the best review on the two phones I've seen yet. Most reviewers nowadays give their reviews and speak about the phones without actually giving a solid answer and solid advice at the end. They're helpful at telling us the specs but their conclusions are always open ended and it's as if its just another phone in their cupboard. You actually tell us that you wouldn't buy the Ultra, and why we shouldn't - as if they're the £1000 investment they are. I was undecided on the two because although 100x is unusable, the 10x and maybe even 30x are useful on the Ultra, the focus and the depth of field issues are more important and bigger flaws than the perks of the Ultra, and you showed me that.
I'm still favouring the 20+ over the iPhone however as the 120Hz , fingerprint censor and smaller bezels are more useful to me than the slightly better camera reliability. And I still believe the camera is better on the 20+ than the Oneplus 8 Pro too.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it! I think the S20+ is a no brainer over the Ultra. As for the iPhone, i'm actually publishing my 11 Pro Max vs S20+ video (hopefully) this week. OnePlus 8 review coming soon too. Thanks a lot for watching though and for the nice comment!
@@insidetechltd I can't agree more with AM Tealdi... I'm a totally pedantic a hole and found your video exactly what I wanted to hear. Only thing I would like now is a comparison video of the S20+ (after possible update and fix for the cameras) and the OnePlus 8 Pro.
@@PokerMuppet sensor wise,the imx689 (used in op8pro) is just a true beast and beats the shit out of the s20+.
also it has a good uw and a real telephoto,unlike s20+
still,one.plus sw and cam engineering is pure garbage ,and their hdr and noise models are unreliable shit
you may want to use gcam,for what it's for,but as for customs roms,a third party application is never as optimized as stock.
don't look back
also one plus is taking the wrong path,and I fear their ui is gonna be terrible soon enough unfortunately.samsung Is much more mature
Very informative review. I was planning to upgrade from an S7 to either s20+ or ultra, so looks like either way am in for a treat. Had thought to splash out on the ultra just because, but now not so sure based on this review and other, less indepth reviews which drew the same conclusion. Size wise may be quite a jump from an older s7 handset to a device as large as the ultra... plenty of food for thought.
And a new subscriber to boot, good work!
S20 Ultra : Ultra hype machine with no real gain with a gimmicky camera, all for an ultra price tag.
S20 + : A good smartphone but don't buy the exynos version.
And to think...I spent hours making a video to say this...Haha, not a bad summary!
Exynos version is good, just not for heavy gamers. For your average person, it gets a full day of battery. Samsung are making updates to make the Exynos versions better.
I tested 4k60 in both low and good light! Also the updates haven't fixed everything, sadly - working on an update now!
Exynos is trash trust me.My s10 battery life with exynos is terrible not to mention the heating issues.I am Never buying samsung again with inferior exynos chipset
@MSD Only partially fixed with the AF issue. There are few more issues with the camera that can't be fixed with software updates.
Buying my s20+ tomorrow thanks so much for the in-depth comparison!
I hope you enjoy it!
Do u notice any issue with battery drain or overheating
Is it exynos or snapdragon?
Got my s20+ last week, i'm absolutely loving it, considering It was a massive upgrade for me going from the old S8 it's not that much of a surprise that I'd be happy with my new purchase, though what I mostly fell in love with was the 120hz refresh rate, and the camera quality. Perhaps may not be worth the £1k overall, but I certainly don't have regrets
Amazing video, you broke down everything to the tiniest detail, good work !
Thank you, glad you like it!
Did Samsung fix the focus issues or no bro?
I'm considering upgrading from the note9 to the s20+
@@user-fz9ms8vx3u yes they already fixed that, and of course not as bad as before
I got mine for £750 from samsung
2 years later how is it? I'm getting one soon in 2023
Such a high quality review. Well done. This would have taken a lot of time and patience. You're amazing!
That's so lovely to hear, thank you very much!
I have the ultra and my life has the Plus and you're right. I thought it what be a better phone. but I do like the largest screen and larger battery and I really don't do a lot of Zoom photography or video thanks for your video keep up the good work
Really interesting to hear from someone in your position! Thank you very much!
don't want to sound rude but please edit your comment.
@@rbdgr8370 lol your so funny he's typing from his ultra lol Auto correct is another flaw on this ultra phone .
So your saying the ultra still is great phone even tho you don't zoom in that close ? That's probably the only flaw on this phone . ?
Thank u so much for the review! Was debating with this 2 models for weeks now!
You're welcome!
Great review one off the best on here by far to look on specs on the S20 range.
Thank you for taking the time in doing this now I know what phone I want .
Switched from iphone to android and decided on the s20+ 5g thanks to this review. Keep it up and many thanks for this thorough review
Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy the phone!
I just got the s20+ I love it
Wow best review yet....
New Subscriber here 👍
Such a great detailed video.
Subscribed!
Appreciate it, thank you!
im upgrading from a note9 to possibly a s20 i wasn't sure if i wanted to go ultra or + . after watching this video, im pretty confident that i will go with the + if i decide to stay with samsung. the upcoming sony has me very intrigued as well as the oneplus 8pro. thank you for this in-depth but straight to the facts video.
I had to triple check that Sub count. This is perhaps one of the greatest reviews I have seen ever. I might call it a research/study while I'm at it. Subbed.
That’s really kind, thank you!
just got the s20+ and so glad i did
Awesome work, what a great review! Thanks
Thank you!
New to your channel and I have to say your video is very well prepared. Very detailed.
Thanks a lot!
Awesome video! Very high quality, a joy to watch.
That’s really kind of you, thank you!
Great video, starting to subscribe now because of the quality of your content. If you can I would appreciate a backwards look at previous phones from Samsung vs the two. Would definitely like to see a 10+ & Note 10+ comparison to the 20+ & 20 Ultra. I think a consumer would appreciate a view on if the older models as t the cheaper price points are better for them and their wallet. 😏
Really appreciate the sub, thank you! I tried to tie in a few references to upgrades/feature changes and whether or not you should upgrade - but I understand the desire for a dedicated comparison video to older devices. I've got a pretty hectic schedule at the moment but i've taken this on board!
@@insidetechltd Totally understandable. I myself still have a S10+ and only made the jump because of my S8+ having a video/screen issue (hard to explain, without going long). I have noticed that even the other Chinese phone makers are going more expensive. I was super pisses the base Ultra is $1400 here. I struggled to find reasons to justify my S10+ last year. I enjoy being on the edge of technology but maybe it just doesn't make sense to do this anymore. I mean for $2k I could get a nice used car for my kid, I'm sure they would love that more than me on a new toy. 🙄 Anyway i plan on watching the older videos. Again, great job. Keep it up and you'll be getting more subs. 👍
Oh it doesn't make sense at all. I literally only upgrade all the time for work - there's no need to upgrade every year though. The S10+ is still an amazing smartphone - i'd recommend it over any of the new S20s for anyone to buy this year. It's nice to always have the newest tech, but the cycle never stops. There's always something new! Hold on as long as you can, then make the upgrade - i'm sure your kid would appreciate it too, haha!
And thanks a lot, it really means a lot that people watch and comment on these videos. Have a lovely day!
great video thank you.
Thank you so much for this in-depth review of all three phones and especially of the cameras. I got the ultra and I've had it for two days now but I'm seriously considering swapping it for the Plus because I don't like how big it is. Might even go with the s20 for its smallest size
Thanks for watching!
If it's not too late, I would recommend you go for either the S20 or S20+. If you've got any doubts already, I think that shows that you won't be fully happy with the Ultra. The other two are better phones (and cheaper) so my recommendation would be to swap!
Thank you, and what a really neutral way of putting forward product reviews / comparisons. I salute you. Due for upgrade from the S9+. Will wait for the note 20, and if I cant then the S20+ seems a no brainer. Thanks again, and all the best to you 🤟
Glad it was helpful, thanks for watching!
This is beyond amazing! U deserve more recognition
Thank you so much! Means a lot!
I just switched from iPhone. I was an iPhone fanboy since 2011. I just got tired of the same phone coming out every year. But that's anothet conversation. I picked up the s20+, and overall I love it! I find it a little quirky at times and a few things aren't as smooth as iOS, but I find the experience much more enjoyable and personalized. My biggest complaint is there is no external volume switch to switch from silent to loud, and as great as these cameras are I still feel like the iPhone cameras might be a little better. I'm disappointed because that was one of the reasons I wanted to switch. I thought the galaxy line was supposed to be second to only the pixel. But it's still a great camera. I am coming from an iPhone XS Max so I'm a couple years behind on tech, but so far for an iPhone user, I have really enjoyed the switch. There are some things that need getting used to though. iOS has just mastered the user experience and overall is a much more refined OS, but it's too restrictive and boring. I may go back after this s20+, but for now, it's been an AWESOME experience!
Exactly I have the xr been with Apple forever and I’m about to switch I just don’t know what phone
It's funny since I'm actually probably doing the reverse. I've always been an android person besides having the iphone 4s. I really miss the iphones app polish as well as I like to play phone games and sometimes they just really lag and slow down in comparison to my experience with ios.
I currently have the Note 9 and been debating between getting the Iphone 12 in october or getting the S20/s20+/s..30? next year. Samsung has by far been my most polished and well rounded android experience. I'd consider the pixel 5 if it's any good and worth it. However, it just seems to me it's better to wait until october before deciding and not just getting the s20/+ now.
The s20+ just seems too large for me since it's one of my gripes with the Note 9. Besides that, I really love the personalization and what I can do. I added one hand operation + , great feature and I'm OCD with my organizing so I customize with Nova launcher. Which could kind've defeat the purpose of owning a pixel since it's purpose is to be a great stock phone and getting the features sooner. Then I have a reader app that i can't get on ios and a game emulator, so It's tilting me more towards sticking with android, I just wish I could use the apple watch and airpods since those to me are really great accessories that I'd love to try.
@@solarcj9313 hey I would recommend the s20 plus of note 20 ultra (Aug) if u want a cheaper phone note 10 plus from last August is still a beast. And I was apple fanboy also until I got the s20 plus 😍
The galaxy phone cameras are better the s20+ has 8K 108MP iphone 11 pro max has 4K 12MP
Awesome job man. Definitely gonna go with the plus model now... thanks 👍🏿
Enjoy it!
Nice in-depth review, keep up the great work👍🏻👍🏻

Awesome vid and great clean editing
Appreciate it, thank you!
A great review. Honest and to the point. A BIG thumbs up and thanks for making the review.
Thanks a lot!
Had the ultra for a few days...seen some video's on the ultra and the S20 plus and sent the ultra back and ordered the plus. So far I love the plus and loved your comparison between the two. Great detail.
Thanks a lot! You've made the right choice I think!
Yeah I'm super happy I chose the plus
is it the same size
What a great review!! Subscribed!
Thank you very much!
Watching this 2 years later on my S20 Ultra. Could finally afford one 2 years later 😩 .. Love it
lol yeah pricey how much you get it for ? and are you getting the s24 next year?
Excellent review. Thanks so much
Thank you!
Brilliant review. Very-very helpful!
Thank you!
Very great video! Thanks! I feel like I made the right decision with my S20 +
Thank you!
One of more sensible comparative reviews of S20+ and S20 Ultra, on CZcams. I have just bought S20+ (directly from Samsung), based on brief use of friends S20, S10+ and P30 Pro. Whilst P30 Pro had superior camera specification, the Huawei firmware tends to over-compensate exposures in normal light conditions .... and I don't usually use phone, to take shots in poor light conditions, or for telephoto shots. I have full frame camera for that. Considering the phone for phone sake, with capability of taking "reasonable" camera shots on the go ... as the bonus, S20+ seemed the best option here. With the memory card slot, 12 GB Ram on board and higher spec 5G, the only drawback as I see it, is Samsung's use of Exynos 990 chipset (in UK), instead of Snapdragon 865.
Thank you. Yes the Exynos chip is disappointing. The gap between the 990 and SD 865 is particularly large this year - especially with power efficiency. It's not so bad that it makes the phone unusable though
@@insidetechltd
I like the phone. More so, since Samsung pushed out the second firmware update (within 30 days, in UK). The close up shots in standard autofocus mode are now pin sharp, without having to resort to taking 5 shots, to find one that is acceptable.
@@rickj8859 how is The battery?
I was so confused abt these two phones, diz vdo helps. Now i ll go for s20+.
Its true we never shoot zoomed picture, 100x zoom is useless for me.
I have the Ultra. I agree about the focus issues, even after the first "update" but thats not a big deal to me. Overall I love how this phone functions.
Just switched from an S8 to the S20+. And wow. The 120hz is insanely good, and most everything else is the S8 but better, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Loved my S8, and I can already tell I'll feel the same about this phone. Also can still use it one handed, and the speakers are awesome. But I do miss the fingerprint scanner being on the back
Nice upgrade!
wonder why I find s8+ selfie camera much better compared to s20 and s20+. Do u have a similar opinion ?
⁹
Have you encountered any pink/green lines since you got the s20+?
after this review feel better going for the s20+ instead saved my self a few quid the only major differences are the ultra zoom maybe could be useful for perverts not me
jxda764 d 😂😂😂😂
Lol
Haha
@Adam really appreciate your in-depth coverage. I was in the dilemma whether to go for S21+ or S21 ultra, and your S20 series comparison has saved me a few 100 bucks.. Thanks
Glad to hear it, thanks a lot!
I just got the ultra. haven't even unboxed it yet. looking at your video has me doubting this purchase. I want a great camera and you shattered that thought in this phone...
I'd say to still give it a try first. A lot of people are happy with the camera as it is, and others have said they no longer experience these camera issues. You might find that you're happy with it anyway!
3 months later, how is your experience going with the Ultra?
Subbed based on this review,as now i finally know which of the S20s to get if or when i ever get the spare cash,as no one had made a comparison like yours before.Thank you very much for that.
That's great to hear, thanks a lot!
@@insidetechltd Anytime,stay safe whatever you do.
Thank you, you too!
Good video, congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Been using the S8+ for 3 years and have zero complaints and it's still better than the latest iPhone! :D
Using the Note 10 currently but interested in the next Note. Will have to wait and see.
Thank you for the review, it was very helpful. After years of Samsung ownership, I moved to the Pixel 4XL, but the battery life and really annoying screen size - ie the screen doesn't go right to the top of the phone!!!! and lack of finger print recognition, I will be coming back to Samsung and the S20+ not the Ultra after your review.
Thank you for watching! The S20+ definitely feels more modern, I think you'll be happier with it!
I have the S20 ultra 5g Snapdragon.Overall, I love this phone so far, especially the battery. I use android auto, so my phone charges during my rides to and from work, and yesterday, right before i went to bed, my battery was at 88%!
But I have also noticed the camera isn't that great. I take a lot of close pictures of receipts for business expenses, and they're all much less sharp than the pics from my previous S10+, some are even blurry. Also, i've noticed that at 120Hz, my google news feed in the Lawnchair launcher tends to freeze and lock up the phone after about 20 seconds of scrolling and reading. It doesn't happen at 60hz.
are these flaws still present? or has any update fixed them?
Capella Qwerty yes, I actually got rid of the phone because I was so disappointed with it.
Dantastic so you dont know whether it was fixed or not?
Capella Qwerty it wasn’t when I last used it about 6 weeks ago
Dantastic ok thanks
You have got yourself a new subscriber my friend.... Keep up the good work. Excellent video and great comparison. Coming from an s20+ user which is a much better value for money phone than the ultra. Kuddos
That's great to hear, thank you!
Very helpful, ty
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Thank you for the most detailed camera review of the S20 Ultra and S20+! I do hope you can have a side by side comparison of the iPhone 11 Pro Max and S20+. I consider the Ultra more inferior in camera quality than the S20+ and I don't really buy the zoom marketing gimmick as well.
That comparison is coming very soon!
@@insidetechltd and please iphone SE2020 VS iphone XR.
Sir, you are amazing and definitely deserve more subs than I can give.
Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for your very informative and in-depth video. I was actually debating between the S20 and the S20+, I don't think we have the Ultra in Australia (at least I haven't seen it)... I am leaning towards the S20+, like 99% ready to buy, but what I was actually wondering, is whether it's worth spending the extra on the S20+ or going for the cheaper A71... I've never spent so much on a phone, haha!! I'm going to buy the S20+ on pay day!! ^_^ Thanks again!!
If it's between the S20+ or A71 then definitely the S20+. You really will notice a big difference, so go for that one!
Cheers for saving me some money! Will get the plus over the ultra now!
Good choice!
Great Work Amigo, Subscribed
Awesome, thank you! 👊🏼
Thank you for such an in-depth review. Saved me a great deal of time on research. I buy a phone only every 4-5 years or so, so I think the 20+ will be the right phone for me. Upgrading from my ancient Galaxy will be amazing and I think I can hang onto this for another good 5 years.
Glad I could help!
Im curious what phone do you have now?
@orion1836 I would suggest the S10+, cheaper and a better device in terms of battery optimization
@@DoctorStrange489 S20+ is the ideal choice especially if he wants to keep it for 5 years, which am not too sure about that. however that will be more possible over the S10+ which is most likely to fall short of software updates within the next 5 years, I would keep it for the next 2-3 years and consider something like the S21+ or ultra or the S22+ until then this is a more realistic prospect to go with, hey this is just my opinion. you chose what you decide for yourself.
Great review and video very informational
Great Video as usual. I m using s20 ultra. For sure i m not happy with the camera😑. Do you think there will be some improvement or not and i hope you will make another video on s20 ultra after 3 or 4 month's.
Otherwise i probably sell it.
Thank you! Yes and no. There have been a few updates now and some things have improved, others haven't. I'm working on a follow up video to explain this in full - I don't think all of the issues will ever be eradicated though!
I'm planning on buying an s20 ultra,but you may have swayed my mind now. .
Can’t wait for these phones to hit $150 in 3 years.
I have the S20+ my first Samsung phone i really like this device know complete and Camera or battery life my previous device was the LG V30 of which i will say was a good phone for its time frame! Great review thanks...
Thanks for watching!
You got a new subscriber!
Awesome!
I actually want the s20+. Paying that much for the ultra with bugs is insane. I would hold out for the note but I've never had one. So personally I don't feel like I'm missing out. I could be wrong, but that's just my personal opinion.
I think the S series was better than the Note series last year. I think it comes down to whether or not you want the S Pen, that's the only major difference nowadays
Nice
Thanks for watching!
Great review. Subscribed.
Btw, fun fact. Though the Exynos SoC is inferior to the Snapdragon, the Exynos chip does process images better.
Silver linings I guess.
Thank you! Do you really think so? From a lot of the comparisons I saw, the Snapdragon chip also processed better images. I haven’t tested it myself though, sadly
@@insidetechltd Anandtech did an in-depth analysis of the photo quality between the two SoCs. The Snapdragon tended to over sharpen and saturate the image.
At first glance, it's more eye catching but detail/realism was lost as a result.
I believe it's because of the the Image signal processor (ISP) tech. Exynos uses Samsung's in-house version, Qualcomm uses Spectra.
Ah ok. Not seen that one myself, but sounds interesting!
18:00 You forgot to take away the photo at the back.
Brilliant and very effective review. I should have watched your review earlier! I got S20 Ultra two days back and it still has all the problems you have mentioned. I am not sure if this can be fixed! I wish Samsung makes it. One key interesting point: when I take pics of words with the very small font( like the small manual in the phone box), image is always blurred. The front-facing camera takes with great focus. I checked the Note20 Ultra too! It has the same problems. Kindly check this factor in your review. Thanks.
Thank you very much!
Really interesting to hear from someone who's still experiencing issues - i'm sorry that you are! I had suspected that some of (if not all) the issues could not be fixed through software alone, which is a real shame. I'll check out the problem you have mentioned and definitely mention it in future too. I have some more videos coming up featuring the S20 Ultra so i'll see how this compares to the Note 20 Ultra soon!
InsideTech thanks. That would be interesting.
@@insidetechltd Thanks. Can you kindly confirm the latest software update for the camera in S20 Ultra? My latest camera update is 10.0.03.31 is there any update that is latest? this will help me.
I'm so sorry for not seeing this sooner! My current version (latest) is 10.5.00.82
People always has complain on Samsung innovation, look how they respond now, 1080p screen, no Micro SD, no MST flagship with plastic back!
Thanks to all youtube reviewers 🔥🔥🔥
That Display mannnn 😍 It’s fire 🔥 If given a choice, I would trade my iPhone 11 Pro Max for the ultra in a heartbeat. I have really watched all the videos about it and man I want it real bad. The only problem is, my iPhone is just 4 months old and bought it for 1 lakh rupees here in India. So can’t really go for the ultra now. It is super expensive! But Now my iPhone screen is kind of looking small to me with big bezels and a notch 😭😭
Really is so good! Apple should have put the pro motion display in the 11 pros, they're falling behind now! You've got a great new phone though! There will always be new, exciting tech out. Maybe look again next year about upgrading, but for now you still have a great phone! Working on a full comparison with the Pro Max right now...
@@insidetechltd thanks for the reply!
Yeah you r right. I bought iPhone 11 pro coming from an iPhone X.
I think I should have waited for this year's launch as 11 pro's experience is same since 2017. So it's kind of getting boring at this point.
Well now that I have brought iPhone 11 pro max, I will have to use it for another 3 years before upgrading as it's a very expensive device and I can't upgrade even Very other year. Cheers!
It's inevitable that not much will change each year, but you still made a bigger upgrade than if you had gone for a XS! Keep it as long as you can, it makes so much more sense - plus it'll still be a great phone in a couple of years. I review the new phones each year for work, but 100% don't think people should upgrade each year.
InsideTech thanks man. Have to keep my iPhone as I have no choice. But I’m still happy with what I have and I know many who would like to have my iPhone in place of their phone. So one is never satisfied. I get that..
That hole is not good
Did you still have focus issues after the ATCH update aimed to fix (came out March 20th for Snapdragon version). What firmware version was this shot with?
Yes I do, but there is an improvement. I'm working on gathering my full thoughts and experience with this - but most of the video hasn't changed. I'll update everyone as soon as I can!
Don't worry it's load and clearer than my.skin. lol
Does anyone know if Samsung ever updated the phone to allow 120hz @ WQHD (as mentioned at 6:27)? I was looking at buying an S20+, but that's pretty disappointing that you can't run it at WQHD 120hz.
Im 13 years old and i have the s7 but im saving for the s21 in 2021 and im already on 240 pounds
That's the way to do it save for what you want and then when you get it ,it will mean so much more to you
Well done mate, keep it up!
2021 S30
Way to go bud.
@@tony-10 Nope. More likely S21 as they seem to be going by year. S20 =2020. S21=2021.
Great review
Thank you very much!
Wow Samsung s20+ has higher ppi than ultra (see display part)
Dude the smaller the screen the more pixels it has how do you not know this
And the regular s20 has it even higher
Great video, now I know what phone to buy for my wife.
I left a comment 19 hours ago and I got the Samsung 20+. I'm still gonna use my Samsung 10 + for travel phone because its now unlock. Again Mahalo for you video. 🤙
Awesome, enjoy it!
I'm all for S20 Ultra but I like the fine-tip S Pen for work. Can anyone advise if any fine-tip stylus can work on the S20 Ultra?
Best review 👏👏👏
Thank you!
Me too I just got one for replacement phone from s9+...great so far
Excellent review. You've helped me finalize choosing an s20+. Thanks
Thank you! I hope you enjoy it 😎
I'm looking for an S20+ too. It seems that they are not available anymore
i bought the ultra. and its an impressive phone. but i must say the camera has still left me a little confused, i came from a s9+ and we have a s10+ in the home as well and yet i struggle to get even as good pictures as i used to get with the old phones. but i hope it is a software issue that can be fixed. and there are cases where i see the potential.
the 100x zoom is completely useless. and to be honest the 108mp is in most cases as well, the focus has such a small window that i struggle to take pictures with the object not partly blurred.
but camera aside, the phone is mighty, and feels more impressive to me that my s9+ did when i got that 2 years ago.
I think a lot of people are experiencing the same thing as you. Like you said though, hopefully it’ll just keep improving with software updates!
The Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus is the camera I purchased about 2 months ago and I got it as a replacement for my old phone had almost played out after about 7 years of use. So far I am pleased with my phone as I only use it for making calls and answering them, and occasionally internet access when away from my computers.
Your phone can do so much more than that! But as long as you're happy with it, that's all that matters
excellent comparison.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for the video. You talked me out of an S20.
Glad I could help!
What are you gonna get now?
i feel like the .2" looks A LOT bigger and a lot more screen for some reason
would you recommend getting the s20+ or the s10+ at this point? ignoring price and cameras while taking (onscreen) battery life, speaker quality and phone functionality as priority. im still conflicted if I should get the s10+ or the s20+, wished there was an inbetween between the two but ofc samsung wont allow ..
If you ignore price, it has to be the S20+...but you really can't ignore it when it's such a huge difference
I still have and use my Note 10 Plus but now have both the Galaxy s20 Ultra and the Galaxy S20 Plus. I really love the S20 series especially the Ultra. I started with the S10e 2 years ago. I am definitely a Samsung Galaxy person.
I have a note 10 plus. Tried a pixel 6 but was disappointed. Is s20 ultra better in any way over s20 plus? Like battery in life or something?
Do you know when you'll be releasing the update? I've heard Samsung's update for the S20 Ultra improves some of the auto focusing issues, and the night mode timing. But there remain issues because of limitations with Phase Detection Auto Focus. Any chance future 'Ultra' models could return to Dual Pixel, or is that not possible?
Early next week hopefully. Some parts have improved but most issues still remain. I wouldn't be surprised to see dual pixel af return in the future
@@insidetechltd Great thanks. Not sure why Samsung changed in the first place!
