Benchmark. Samsung should rename the Note 20 Ultra phone, the Benchmark 20 Ultra. It’s not that it’s absolutely perfect or that there is no other phone like it. It’s because every time the Note series has a new phone added to its portfolio, it becomes the phone against which every other flagship phone will be compared. And that’s exactly what I’m going to do here. Compare this one phone to the rest of the world.
THE NOTE 20 ULTRA
I’m going to be brief. As a package of good looks, premium design, incredible screen, great performance, super usable S pen, and fantastic camera and optics, the Note 20 Ultra is a winning combination. It carries forward the legacy of the Note series very well with an angular monolith design, great new colors (including the much-advertised Mystic Bronze), metal build and a very premium finish. Hold the phone and you know you’re holding luxury in your hand. The large camera bump at the back (it juts out like it has a life of its own) isn’t as off-putting when you realize that the rest of the phone is much slimmer than any other. It’s the world’s first phone with the new Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 6.9-inch Quad HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate – one of the best screens on any phone.
