Samsung have committed to 3 years of updates. To be fair it’s nice that they have done that.
Took this a couple nights ago handheld, so not even fully stabilized.

I got the update too. I was so excited that I went up to a random guy in the store and said "Hey. I'm on the September patch"
Dude, that's so ambiguous!!
Holy hell, it's crap! or holy hell, it's awesome?

I’m going with: holy expletive, followed by something positive!
BINGO
So cool. I'm highly considering ordering the Razer Kishi to go with it. We will see! Kind of amazing that console quality games can play on a device like this, and it makes me look over at my Switch with a loss of enthusiasm for it.
Battery life has been awesome on my N20U...I am getting 7 hours + on normal days.
I am impressed

I have a question, perhaps a strange one, but quite important. In the camera app on an iPhone you can click in any area of the picture in the viewfinder in order to change the focus, you can also adjust the exposure by swiping up or down. Just yesterday I had the possibility to take some pictures with an S10 and I noticed that you can't really do this there - so clicking on the viewfinder doesn't do anything and swiping up or down will change between the cameras. Hence, certain pictures ended up overexposed, e.g. with totally white sky even though it was perfectly blue with some nice clouds. How does this work on the Note? Taking into account that Samsungs cameras get constantly better reviews than Apple's, I assume there must be a way. Also, I found that bokeh on the S10 looked way more artificial than on my iPhone X. What are your impressions?
Strange. I've had the S10+ and now have a Note 10+ and can touch an area of the screen to adjust the focus. Particularly works well with skies.
Thanks, I'll take a look at the Note in a shop to see how the camera app works, then!
I've had my Exynos version of the Note 20 Ultra for a few weeks now, if it wasn't for the internet you would be hard pressed to tell the difference in day to day use between the Exynos 990 & Snapdragon 865+.
It's been running great no lag, no overheating & the battery life get me easily though the day in work with no signal due to the building design, which is one of the biggest killers of battery life.
I charge at 4am and i still have around 47% battery when i come home at 4pm.
I swap between my iPhone SE 2020 & Note 20 Ultra depending which phone got my sim in at the time, and the SE comes home with with around 32% battery after i finished work.

did yours improve over time?
it seems like it has. I have everything like Bluetooth turned on too. During the last week while on vacation I have absolutely abused the N20U with pictures and videos and it still got great battery life.
Here is a nice explanation
