Review on Get the Ultimate Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G - Factory Unlocked & Packed with Long-Lasting Battery, Facial Recognition, and 128GB Storage in Cosmic Gray US Version by Chasmod Ray ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Didn't quite buy it well, had a little trouble using it.

The smartphone does not correspond to the declared price and status - this is obvious. Most of the chips and bells and whistles are a marketing ploy. The buyer pays more for the brand than for the product. For the same money you can buy two decent Chinese smartphones. This is about the same as buying a Rolex: Casio quartz watches cost about 200 times less, while having better functionality, accuracy and reliability, but they do not have the same status as Rolex.

Pros
  • 1. Gorgeous screen: excellent color reproduction, maximum viewing angles, excellent readability in bright sunlight. 2. Fast LPDDR5 memory. 3. Ability to expand permanent memory using micro SD cards. 4. Extensive functionality. 5. Good performance. 6. Dust and moisture protection according to IP 68 standard. 7. Good stereo speakers. 8. Convenient interface.
Cons
  • 1. PWM that kills the eyes when using the screen for a long time. This is the disease of all Samsung phones. 2. Stupid rounded edges that do not carry any functional load (we are talking about the Edge panel) and because of which a protective glass cannot be used. They ostensibly give the phone a special premium look, but in fact, this is just marketing. The silicone film does not protect the screen, I already broke it by dropping the smartphone. 3. Terrible focus. Especially in low light. No firmware ates will fix it, it is technically impossible to do. 4. A hundredfold digital zoom is pure marketing, it is absolutely useless. 5. Why does a smartphone need 12 gigs of RAM, and even more so, 16? To cost more? 6. The under-screen unlock sensor is just disgusting! Sometimes it refuses to work at all, despite repeated attempts to unlock it. You have to enter the code manually. And this despite the lack of protective glass! 7. The same can be said about unlocking with the front camera. Doesn't work in low light, doesn't recognize when wearing sunglasses. 8. The phone is quite heavy and massive, it barely fits in a pocket. Although, this is rather not a minus, but a necessity with such a screen diagonal and battery size. 9. The camera block sticks out a lot, although this can be fixed by wearing a thick protective case, but then the phone, already large, becomes even more massive. If the cover is not used, there is a risk of damage to the unit. 10. Another big minus is low autonomy, despite a powerful 5000 mAh battery. And this is despite the fact that I never use a screen refresh rate of 120 Hz and I have the dimming mode enabled on a permanent basis, which, in theory, should save up to 40% of the energy consumed by the screen. But my phone barely lasts until the evening . What will happen to it if you turn on 120 Hz and a light theme? Enough for half a day of active use? Problem with optimization? 11. Exynos 990. 12. Price $1400. I think it is unreasonably high, considering all of the above.
