I'm assuming that's the guy's camera, not the actual phone. Lol.
Got a tip for us?

That screen rolling you mentioned on white menu backgrounds is intefence from the camera setup he used.
Notice all the other videos posted of side side comparisons posted in this thread and there was nothing.
Then this guys comparison was pretty useless. These kind of speed tests make no sense. They are useless. The microsecond wins by either phone will not be noticed when using either phone.
Then he compares the top of the line 11 Pro Max to the S20+ why not the Ultra?
Then he launches social media internet accessing apps without letting us know if they were both on Wifi? Were they on cellular? What cellular service? So many questions
Any specific points in the video? Can't bear to watch 10 mins of pointless speed tests. Not to mention his voice makes me want to throw myself off a cliff. lol
I didn’t notice any flicker in person. I’m usually pretty sensitive to that sort of thing. However, I was kind of rushed because other people were around to see the phones, too. I was busy checking out the cameras and the size and feel of the phones. I didn’t even really get to check audio, dang it.
Grey didn’t look good under Best Buy lighting but I liked it anyway: Good solid neutral color. Lol, it was a phone colored phone! A nice Soviet era “We mean business, you soft capitalist pansy“ color.
I’m still going to party with pink, though! Unfortunately it was not there to see in person. There was only Fingerprint Black and Comrade Grey.

LOL! Love the descriptions. Also I love me some commie grey on a gadget, gives me them sweet manga/cyberpunk Ghost In The Shell sort of vibes. Hope they keep it for the Note!I didn’t notice any flicker in person. I’m usually pretty sensitive to that sort of thing.

My local Three and EE store has them on request. Was set on S20, then seen them and S20+ took my attention. Now wavering towards Ultra but I don’t want camera really so still thinking non ultra. Just can’t decide if I want pocketable and more usable S20 or the bigger (slightly) more cumbersome screen S20+!
I’ve only seen dummy units, my preorder won’t ship until the 10th of March

Da, da, da.
Hilarious. Looking forward to hearing about your party pink though. Thanks for sharing the PWM thoughts too.
My local O2 store has the regular and plus models but that was a couple of days ago, they may well have the ultra in by now though.
I’m off work for the next 3 days so I’ll pop into town and see if I can see the ultra. I’m not interested in the other 2 but I could have a look for size comparisons.
If I were interested it'd be for the regular size, I'm kind of going off larger phones these days and find the more pocketable size of the 11 Pro more to my liking.
The cameras on most modern smartphones take more than decent enough photos for me so the extra cost involved for the ultra would be a waste. I appreciate what Samsung has done but its overkill for most outside this forum.

I hope the cameras on the Ultra live up to all the hype!
I’d really only get to use a zoom like that on vacations. Since my husband is likely to get the Ultra I can use his phone if I see a dolphin swimming by. And I know from experience it’s hard to get those slippery dudes framed properly and photographed.
Most of my photography is indoors and is of family and friends and pets. That’s where my 11 Pro really does a nice job. My Pixel 2 and 3XL photos can come out a bit dark sometimes.
I have wanted the smaller Samsungs ever since the S8 series. But I always chickened out from S8-S10. Always veered off and got the plus Sized one. It was mostly due to battery life concerns mixed a little bit with not wanting a cramped display.
But the S20 looks workable and the battery life is finally one that is respectable for the smallest option. So I’ll go for it. If I don’t like it I’ll trade it in for the Note 20 or maybe a foldable or see what’s going on in the Pixels by then.
I think for me personally, the main fly in the ointment is going to be the in display fingerprint sensor. I would prefer to use a tempered glass protector (but not go through all the work and expense of the Whitestone Dome) and I have struggled with the ones on my S10+ and Note 10+. That FPS is the reason I’m not expecting to keep this phone more than a year. I fully expect to upgrade when Samsung moves to something better.

When I tested getting a portrait of my hand yesterday I got a very similar result on the S20 camera. And that’s on a phone missing the TOF sensor! My hand was in excellent focus and the background had a beautiful natural looking bokeh effect without any software manipulation that I could detect.I hope the cameras on the Ultra live up to all the hype!

So impressive
Is the TOF making this look so good with the depth sensors?

No it's just the lens having a large apeture and a natural shallow depth of field. No software required.
