I ordered a iPhone 11 Pro Max but returned it after a couple of days.

Night mode doesn’t work on the telephoto or the ultra wide or selfie camera etc, still only 2x zoom but takes great pics I admit.

Given the S11 cam with 48mp telephoto camera and 5x zoom, along with night mode on the ultra wide, selfie and telephoto camera, it seems like it will be superb and with lots of functionality.

These days to me most phones are similar so the camera is most important followed by battery.

Paying all that money for the iPhone 11 Pro Max doesn’t seem worth it when Samsung are going to bring out a phone with a camera like this one.

But the pro max was out last year, phones get updated every year so new devices are bound to be improved.

10x optical! 4K 120! Nice

I'll believe it when I see it though...

I'm loving 256GB basic storage, looking good from Samsung moving forward.

If those specs are true, I’ll be getting the Ultra on release. Samsung has killed it with hardware this past year, their software is the best it’s ever been, and they’ve improved updates tenfold. They are pulling far away from the pack when it comes to android devices. The stock feel and good software processing from the Pixels aren’t enough anymore when they get destroyed in every other category. Hopefully they step it up to match Samsung with the Pixel 5.

Pricing is still decent. So probably looking at £1,000 for the ultra in the U.K. as Samsung do not apply the $1=£1 conversion that Apple do.

10 X optical zoom sounds a bit much! Maybe 5x optical zoom and 10 x digital.

Even 5 x would be great. 10 x would be killing it.

If true about the 108mp camera only on the top tier phone, makes the picture with specs completely inaccurate. I can see why they'd keep it for their top of the range phone, before filtering it down to other versions next year. Need to make it as appealing as possible.

No idea why people would say Samsung are lying, they haven't said anything. It's all just rumours and speculation at this point!

Surely a phone as highly specced (spelling?!) as the Ultra would command a higher price tag than $999. $1100 minimum with a 512gb version even more.

Man...these phones are going to be beasts!
Cameras and batteries and that SD 865!
Can't wait for 2/11

Being first flagship phone of the new decade and 2020's it will certainly be a "special" so plenty of surprises predicted i guess.
