Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra review

Expensive but worth every penny, this is an excellent smartphone. The camera takes fantastic photos and has excellent battery life. The screen makes watching movies and TV shows a very pleasant experience.

As a package, the Galaxy S20 Ultra has everything and more you'd need from a phone. It has the looks, the gorgeous display, massive footprint, powerful cameras, and more. However, all this comes at a hefty price. If money isn't a bottleneck, then the Galaxy S20 Ultra is a brilliant option, one that should definitely be considered if you are in the market for a flagship from the premium end of the smartphone market.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is one of the best devices that Samsung has put out yet, and we hope that this camera technology trickles down to other models soon. The camera system on the device is excellent, and you are going to get a good shot pretty much irrespective of lighting conditions. We were also happy with the video recording performance of the Galaxy S20 Ultra.

Big, bold marketing claims about the 108 megapixel sensor, 8K video recording and 100x 'space zoom' may draw you in to look at the Samsung S20 Ultra and perhaps even convince you to choose it over others. While it's clear that the claims made in the high-profile advertisements you might have seen aren't quite as strong as they might have you believe, the S20 Ultra is still one of the best phones you can pick up today if the quality of the onboard camera is your main priority.

As it stands now, this big full-featured phone has a big camera system that just feels a little let down. Great phone all the way through, though that big camera needs some work. If slash when Samsung gets that work complete, it might just have the world’s best camera system for 2020. For now, it’s a big flagship that falls a little short, despite that impressive zoom range.

Its price is insanely high for a normal, conventional glass slab phone. Hell, the Galaxy Z Flip cost $20 less than the Galaxy S20 Ultra and it’s a more charming and fun device. Some people will argue there is no reason to spend over $500 on a phone, and maybe for some, that’s true. The cameras, performance, display, and battery life will all be good enough on those devices. The Galaxy S20 Ultra isn’t about good enough. It’s about the best phone a power user can get and it’s going to cost you a lot to get that.

Generally good exposure, wide dynamic range, pleasant bokeh shots, low noise, and reliable autofocus delivering sharp faces with the camera at different distances from the subject all help ensure excellent images. Add to that class-leading front camera video, and photographers will be more than happy with the results from the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra’s selfie camera.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is a multimedia powerhouse with an iconic design centred on a really capable set of high resolution cameras. It definitely delivers on the promises of the Samsung Brand, for which, we pay a price of Rs. 92,999/-

Its ultra-wide camera and bokeh effects in Portrait mode are particularly impressive; and with good video performance in 4K mode, together with a host of other resolution and slow-motion recording settings, there are plenty of possibilities for capturing moving images, too. Issues with close-range zoom, slow autofocus in low light, and slightly underwhelming night shots prevented the S20 Ultra from challenging the best devices at the top of our database, however.

Less

This is the most powerful phone Samsung has ever made and it had plenty going for it. Sadly, its ugly camera bump, huge design and high price means it won't be for everyone.
