I'm so impressed by that. Truly.
Great price point, great specs. I think I just read a 5g version is £100 more but for us in the UK still pointless for another year unless you're in a big city.

I was going to upgrade to a Note and give it a whirl but may plump for one of these if the cameras are ok. Although I imagine it's just a lift and drop of the S20 csmera. :)

This looks great. I particularly like the mint, lavender, and navy colors.

So like, why would the standard Note 20 exist now, at all?

S-Pen primarily. That’s always been the main point of the Note. Also: IP68 water/dustproof, wireless charging, Samsung DeX etc. The Note is primarily a productivity-focused phone.

EDIT: Scratch that - just read it has IP68, DeX and wireless charging. This thing is going to be a killer buy, especially with Samsung’s generous trade-ins.

Hmm I still think it's pricey compared to the OnePlus Nord.
I know it has lesser specs processor wise, but that still has 90hz and also has three cameras (4 including that dreadful macro lens), although likely that Samsung's snappers are better.

Same with the 4a. Great device for the price. :)

There's lots of competition in the mid-range market right now - it's actually more exciting than the flagship space these days!

Samsung literally just dropped the BOMB on everyone: Apple, OnePlus, Huawei, LG... Game over for the iPhone 12 series... RIP Apple... 😂

iPhone sales won’t even blink at this. There have been comparatively priced Galaxy S models with better specs in the past and they had no impact on iPhone sales. Most people buying iPhones aren’t even looking at Android devices.

Google, and their Pixel 5, on the other hand, just got bent over by Samsung.

I think you're right.....even if they are some defections to this phone....it won't be in enough numbers to be noticed.

Agreed on the Pixel 5 and even the OPO 8T being announce in the coming weeks. If the cameras are on par with the S20 or Note 20 then this phone disrupts things in the Android space....

Yeah and just like the iphone 12...Oh wait....no iPhone has 120hz either
Click to expand...

Yeah I know that. Only responding to the poster who said  would be charging 1100 for a phone with 60hz. Sʌᴍsᴜɴɢ is doing the same.

I’m mad  won’t be doing 120hz. That’s why I won’t be upgrading to the pro this time and eyeballing that 5.4” model for something different.
