Samsung Galaxy S20 5G review
A few software foibles aside, the Galaxy S20 feels like the Goldilocks of flagship phones right now. Not too big. All the hardware you could want, but not too feature-packed. Just right. It delivers excellent battery life, a phenomenal display, blistering performance and superb image quality from a diverse set of cameras. It may not take the best photos, with the Pixel 4 and iPhone 11 claiming victory in certain scenarios, but it does a great job almost all of the time. Until someone else comes along and does it better, this is the Android handset to beat.- High refresh rate meets fantastic image quality
- Best hardware and build quality of any Android phone
- All-day battery life… usually
- 5G not worth it for many
- Camera image processing a bit strong
- RIP headphone socket

It has almost become sort of a tradition for Galaxy S smartphones to be excellent high-end devices that are unable to keep up with their competitors in all aspects of smartphone life.- slim and lightweight case, bleeding edge up-to-date software, wide LTE band support, support for 8K video, great and very bright 120 Hz display, 60 Hz gaming, decent battery life, 5G optional
- no aptX HD, location services not particularly accurate at times, many video features only up to FHD/30fps, Exynos SoC throttles noticeably, high temperatures under load, no real telephoto lens

- Gorgeous display with 120Hz refresh rate, solid battery life, 12GB of RAM, same camera as pricier S20+.
- Weird lag switching between camera modes, only works on sub-6 Ghz 5G spectrum.

The Galaxy S20 is so close to being the phone I’d tell everyone to buy for 2020. You won’t find a better display. You might not find a better in-hand feel. Battery life is solid. Performance is excellent. The software experience is smooth and feature-packed. There is so much good going on here.- Display, Hardware and Specs, Performance, Battery life, Design, Software, Camera, 5G, Price

The S20 series is Samsung’s first smartphones with multiple lenses and “Space Zoom” capability in a bid to match Huawei and OPPO’s camera system. The S20 and S20+ achieves respectable zoom quality for general use, but the S20 Ultra delivers better image quality.

Having used the Galaxy S20 as my daily driver for a little over a week now, and having previously tested the Galaxy S20 Ultra, I can safely say that the smallest, cheapest smartphone in the line up is absolutely the one to buy.- Compact feel, Subtle display curves, 120 Hz smoothness, Good multi-tasker, Fast charging
- Space Zoom is a gimmick, No 120 Hz at QHD+, Still expensive

“The Galaxy S20 may be the smallest S20, but it's not quite small enough to be a compact flagship phone.”
