Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G 12GB 256GB
The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra might look like a smartphone, but there is so much power in it that it operates like a computer. And then, there's the magic pen!
The most powerful pen: One of the most obvious features of the Note 20 Ultra is the S Pen. Samsung says this is Galaxy's most powerful pen and with it comes "groundbreakingly low latency", Bluetooth, enhanced gesture control and more, for a more realistic pen experience. The S Pen is capable of transforming your scribble into text which you can copy and paste, and then you can export your notes as a PPT or Word file for easy sharing.
Some notable numbers: The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is 5G ready, with 256GB Storage (expandable to 1TB) and a highly-efficient 4500mAh Battery with more than 50% charge in 30 minutes thanks to the 25W Super Fast Charger.
An awesome display: As you'd expect, the display is something to behold. A 6.9" edge Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X Infinity-O Display with 120Hz refresh rate for perfectly seamless viewing.
World-leading cameras: The camera set up is another Samsung special: 12MP Ultra-Wide + 108MP Wide + 12MP Telephoto Cameras with Laser AF Sensor and up to 50x Super Resolution Zoom. On the front is a 10MP Selfie Camera
Highest resolution video: The 8K video recording at 24fps (7680x4320) is the highest-resolution video available in a smartphone. The pro-grade controls let you be super creative with your footage which you can edit in-camera.

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review
A fantastic all-rounder that boasts a stunning display and a versatile user experience, undermined by its size, longevity and high price
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review
There’s a sense of deja-vu around the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Samsung’s stylus-toting smartphone won’t get to be its 2020 flagship – that honor is reserved for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 2 – but with its combination of S Pen, big screen, big spec sheet, and big price tag, the newest Note is a...- Fantastic display with a smooth 120Hz mode
- S Pen remains the go-to tool for mobile notetakers
- Cameras capable of some great photography
- Powerhouse specs
- Expensive
- Can't have 120Hz with maximum screen resolution
- Occasional camera autofocus issues
- Battery might not satisfy power users
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review
Samsung has settled into a new routine for its Galaxy Note line of smartphones: take some of the major new features from the flagship Galaxy S updates from earlier in the year, improve on them slightly, and add a stylus.- Fast performance
- Samsung Notes with the S Pen is great
- Multiday battery life
- Selfie camera (the “Hamcam”) oversmooths faces
- Expensive compared to non-stylus competitors
- Ads in Samsung apps
- Gigantic with a gigantic camera bump
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic Bronze SM-N986BZNGNZO review

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review
The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is a great phone, but it should offer more storage while letting you max out the display for its maxed out price.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Review
The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra cements Samsung's place as one of the best phone makers in the world delivering a stunning display, great camera and a wealth of S Pen productivity perks- Bronze colour is really nice, and adds a matte finish
- S Pen even more responsive than ever
- Really good triple camera
- The best looking phone around
- Battery life, on Exynos version, isn’t good
- Screen resolution limits are annoying
The Note 20 Ultra Is the Ultimate Android Phone
This is the ultimate Android phone, but the price is steep.- Fantastic performance. Silky 120-Hz screen. More than a full day of battery life. Great cameras—even the one on the front. Helpful Windows integration. Robust video capabilities. S Pen is handy for select tasks. Comes with all the extras you'd want: wireless charging, MicroSD slot, water resistance.
- It's expensive! And huge. The stylus suffers from lackluster palm rejection. No headphone jack. Fingerprint sensor isn't reliable. The $1,000 Galaxy S20 gets you most of the same features.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review
After nearly 10 years at the cutting edge, the Samsung Galaxy Note series is still on top of its game. Yes, it's easy to see the Note 20 Ultra as "just another Note" - but that's because it's got so much right.- Integrated stylus delivers key point of difference
- Great handwriting and notes input
- Massive screen is a delight
- Powerful and fluid operation
- Big camera protrustion
- Battery struggles to last a full day
- Zoom camera is unimpressive
- 120Hz display unavailable at max res
- Gimmicky Air Gestures
- Pricey
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G Mystic White SM-N986BZWGNZO review

- gorgeous screen
- fast processor

- Extremely expensive with less storage than the Note 10+
- Might be too big for some pockets
- Can get hot during heavy loads
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G (256GB, Black) AU - Excellent review
While the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra isn’t a bad phone by any stretch of the imagination, it is lacking that very thing, something the Galaxy Note was once known for. Simply put, Samsung has lost its imagination in the Note range, and while these were once among the most exciting of Samsung’s smartphones,...- Beautiful screen, Supports WiFi 6 and 5G, Fast 120Hz screen, Camera can be very good, S-Pen supports more remote functionality, handy if you use your phone like a computer, Water resistance, Wireless charging
- Huge, Camera bump is thick and noticeable, Camera can also have some real misses, S-Pen upgrades are virtually nil, and largely irrelevant if you don't want to use it as a remote, Not a lot of differences to the S20 Ultra, and that's not necessarily a good thing, The first "Note" model that lacks...
