Samsung is considered one of the top three manufacturers and has a range that spans all specifications from basic handsets to top of the range smartphones that are capable of replacing a desktop computer as well as taking care of your mobile phone needs. The S20 series has been so named to coincide with the turn of the decade making 2020 a year to remember. 

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G Design and Screen

Sleek and well designed with curved edges to the waterfall Infinity-O Display screen the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G certainly has the wow factor. It is the biggest in the range and has a stunning 6.9-inch screen that is almost complete aside from the small punch hole housing for the front-facing camera. It is finished in glass and stainless steel for a premium look and feel and is Corning Gorilla Glass 6 with an IP68 rating for water and dust. 

The always on screen technology gives this handset an appeal of its own and the screen is a Dynamic AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with 16M colours. It has 1440 x 3200 pixels, a 20:9 aspect ratio, 511 PPI density and an 89.9% screen-to-body ratio. 

Turning the handset over the back is also well thought out and designed and features very little except for the rear-facing camera housing and the Samsung logo. The headset has four lenses, and these are arranged in a square, set inside the main fat rectangular casing, which also houses the LED flash. It is quite a dominant feature, but it works well and fits the overall look and feel of the handset well. 

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G Audio

Samsung is masters of the audio, and therefore you know you are going to get something special. With stereo speakers the sound quality on the loudspeaker is impressive, so if you want to stream music, watch television or make hands free calls, you will be able to do so with clarity. There is no standard 3.5mm headphone jack which is consistent with the rest of the handsets in the series. It is being ditched more and more by all manufacturers in favour of wireless headphones, and you have a great choice from Samsung and other providers. 

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G Camera

So, the camera technology on this handset has photography geeks in a total frenzy. We know that phone manufacturers are out to replace the high street camera, but nothing quite prepared us for this spectacle. Four lenses are impressive enough but to discover the primary lens is 108 MP is something else, no that is not a typo! The full spec of the four lenses is as follows: 108 MP, f/1.8, 26mm (wide), Dual Pixel PDAF, OIS, a Periscope 48 MP, f/3.6, 102mm (telephoto), 1/2", 0.8µm, PDAF, OIS, 10x hybrid optical zoom, a 12 MP, f/2.2, 13mm (ultrawide), 1.4µm, AF, Super Steady video and a 0.3 MP, TOF 3D, (depth). The front-facing camera is a stunning 40 MP which means this is some serious camera tech. 

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G Features and Performance

So when it comes to what is under the hood, you know there is going to be something seriously robust to cope with all the features Samsung has crammed in. It is indeed a meaty offering in the form of the Exynos 990 (7 nm+) with an Octa-core (2x2.73 GHz Mongoose M5 & 2x2.60 GHz Cortex-A76 & 4x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55) CPU and a Mali-G77 MP11 GPU. As you might expect, this is running Android 10.0 and to get the Samsung look and feel you have the One UI 2 skin over the top. 

Storage is an important factor, and you get two size options as standard, either the 128GB 12GB RAM or the 512GB 16GB RAM. If neither of these offers you enough space, then you also have the added advantage of the microSDXC card which give you the potential to expand things further. 

Reverse charging is another popular feature of high-end handsets, and this means you can use the phone to charge other devices by simply placing them on the rear of the unit. It also means this is a wireless charging phone, and although you only get the cable, which does offer fast charger, you can pick up a wireless charger quite cheaply if you fancy using this feature. The battery behind all of this is a massive 5000mAh which ensures you have the power you need to get through the day. 

Summary

If you are looking for a top of the range handset that is ready for the 5G rollout, then this could be the handset for you. The addition of such powerful camera tech makes this an appealing handset for many users.
