Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G product description

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is the most advanced model in the S20 series. With a specification list to make everyone jealous, including a 108 megapixel camera with 100x zoom, extremely fast charging and only the most premium materials. And, of course, that includes a price tag that reaches for the skies. Whether this is justified we will investigate here.

A bit boring appearance

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is a new addition to the Galaxy S family. One we have never seen before and which is even more over the top than the Plus version was at the time. For the best specifications, the most extensive features and the most beautiful and exclusive materials. For example, the Galaxy S20 Ultra is completely built from sturdy Gorilla Glass 6. The Galaxy S20 and S20+ only have it at the front. The less strong Gorilla Glass 5 is at the back. The rest of the housing looks, let's be honest, a bit boring. It's only available in grey and black when it comes out. The only thing that really stands out is the large camera module on the back.

108 megapixel shooter with Space Zoom

At first glance, that camera looks quote promising. And for good right. It's equipped with a 108 megapixel camera sensor. Far too much for normal use, but Samsung uses it cleverly. This time, 9 pixels are merged into 1 so that in most cases you shoot 12 megapixel photos. But with much more detail and sharpness. What it really excels at is its zoom possibilities. You can zoom in 10x optically, without loss of quality and an unprecedented high 100x digital. With this Super Resolution Zoom, also called Space Zoom, you not only humiliate other phones, you literally bring the invisible up close. Zoom in on the moon. Samsung has also improved the video possibilities. This time, for example, you can shoot video in up to 8K for when you have an 8K TV at home. All that content can be stored on the S20 Ultra 5G itself. The storage memory is 512 GB and can even be expanded by another 1 TB thanks to its memory slot.

Quick screen, large battery

This 5G version of the Galaxy S20 Ultra features a generous 16GB of RAM so you can quickly launch apps and switch between them. It's also the model with the largest battery available from Samsung: 5000 mAh. The largest of all S20 models. This is also necessary because with a screen diagonal of 6.9 inches, the S20 Ultra is no small guy. Samsung uses an AMOLED panel, which means nice and bright colours that can even be viewed in direct sunlight. The highest resolution is Quad HD+. That's 1440 pixels horizontally times 3200 lines. New this year is the higher refresh rate of 120Hz. This makes animations such as scrolling thru lists look smoother. It also feels a bit faster which is always nice for a phone costing this much.

Faster recharging

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is equipped with the most extensive specifications, the most beautiful materials and the best functions. We have discussed all of them but one, and that is the extra fast charging. The included quick charger goes up to 45 Watt, while the other S20 models use only 25 Watt. So you can get back to work faster when your battery runs dry. All this beauty is housed in a fairly large body. It is therefore not very compact and inconspicuous. Unfortunately, this also applies to its price tag. Do you want the best of the best then you have to pay the price that comes with that. So search and compare prices and contracts before you buy one.
