The main differences from the S20 Plus are in the cameras (7.9x camera zoom) and the larger display. There is no 3.5mm jack. Display refresh rate 120 Hz. Unlike the younger models of the S20 series, there is a steel frame instead of aluminium.
It can have both 2 full-fledged nano-SIM slots, and nano + e-SIM. Available with Exynos 990 or Snapdragon 865 processor. FM receiver available on US and Canadian models only. Gorilla Glass 6 front and back.

The top smartphone in the Galaxy S20 series, with a focus on photography and video shooting. Unlike younger models, the phone received a 108 MP camera (against 12 MP). However, the module consists of several 12 MP matrices. In normal shooting, a 12 MP module is used, in zoom mode or other creative modes, the matrices are combined into one, with a total of 108 MP. This allows you to take high-resolution pictures, and thanks to this feature (according to the manufacturer), the smartphone received a significantly enhanced optical zoom, up to 10x (against 3x, for younger models).

Together with digital zoom, this gives a 100x zoom, which is a record among smartphones (at the beginning of 2020). It is worth noting that the camera zoom is up to 7.9x (the difference between a telephoto lens and an ultra-wide one). Also, the front camera has undergone changes, instead of 10 MP, a 40 MP module has been added. This model has the largest display in the S20 series — 6.9", versus 6.7 and 6.2 for the S20 Plus and S20.

The technical part also stands out, for example, the amount of RAM has grown from 12 GB to 16 GB (the model has 512 GB of memory). There is a fast charge of 45 W, instead of 25 W for younger models. The closest competitor at the beginning of 2020 is the Huawei Mate 30 Pro. But, Samsung is more technically savvy, although it loses in macro photo mode, because it simply does not have a separate module for this kind of filming.

Video reviews

The twentieth "Galaxy" on steroids for good reason received the official nickname Ultra — in the top-end configuration of the flagship from Samsung, the bet is made on maximalism.

real giant

First of all, a “perforated” screen with “curved” sidewalls, which has a gigantic size of 6.9" diagonally, enters the field of view. The hole in its upper lobe is made for the needs of a 40 MP selfie camera that shoots high-quality self-portraits and videos in resolutions up to 4K. On other fronts , the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra's display features a 120Hz frame rate (in FullHD+ down-res mode), vibrant and rich Dynamic AMOLED colour reproduction, and support for the advanced HDR10+ High Dynamic Range technology specification.

108 MP and "space" zoom

The glass back of the smartphone is decorated with a protruding die with a “five-eyed” camera. The reins of power in it are transferred to the sensor with a resolution of 108 MP. In normal mode, it produces photos at a resolution of 12 MP: adjacent pixels of the leading matrix can be grouped in 9 pcs. to reduce noise, increase light sensitivity and image dynamic range (Nonacell technology). Another “feature” of the rear camera is a 100x “space” zoom(a hybrid of optical and digital zoom). Separately, it is worth mentioning that the camera supports video recording in ultra-high resolution 8K.

Top grade

With speed, the smartphone should not have the slightest problem. The key to its quick response to any user actions is the most powerful hardware base with the homegrown Exynos 990 chipset at the head (in the American-style version of the device, the top-end Snapdragon 865 processor is installed under the hood). "RAM" on board the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra can be up to 16 GB (!) Including. We add here the ultra-fast charging of a 5000 mAh battery (45 W by wire), state-of-the-art equipment, high-quality stereo sound, dust and water protection according to the IP68 standard — as a result, we are presented with a top-class smartphone, the price for owning which is only an immodest price tag .

There is a modification with support for 5G communication. However, 5G does not work in the CIS countries, which at the beginning of 2020 makes this feature useless for residents of the CIS.
