Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra N985F/DS, Dual SIM LTE, International Version (No US Warranty), 256GB, Mystic Bronze – GSM Unlocked

The best Phone that money can buy. The cameras, the S-pen, the AMOLED screen quality, the 120 Hz refresh rate, the 5G data connection, the build quality, etc. are all top notch. This phone will probably hold the crown for best Android phone for a good while, and it has key feature bumps that made me especially want this phone–namely the 5G and the 120 Hz screen.I would definitely recommend a solid case if you’re planning to spend this much money on a phone. I bought a Spigen case which effectively reduces the camera bump on the back to allow the phone to sit flat on a desk. The IP68 rating means that it will be fine with water and dust, but drop protection is still a must. I saw a stat recently that something like 2/3 of people report incurring drop damage to their phone (for all phones not specifically this phone).Other thoughts: I think it’s interesting that most middle class people can afford the best phone that you can possibly purchase for a product that is in your pocket, everyday, all the time. You can’t say that about cars, houses, clothes, but you could definitely swing buying the best phone that money can buy once every 3-4 years if it’s important enough to you. For me it is, and I’m very happy with this phone.Lastly: Google Pixel, 1+, Apple, etc. can only hope to match some of the features that this phone has to offer, but I highly doubt that they will exceed this phone’s specs on yet to be release products. Just my opinion as a phone guy, but the best that they could hope to do is give you a better value on specific features. If you’re somebody looking for the best value on a calling and texting machine, then this phone is not for you. This phone is for somebody that wants the best cameras, pocket computing power, & screen quality that money can buy you right now.

Buyer Beware! UPDATED May 26, 2021. Edited May 26, 2021:Updated Review: After having a new replacement handset (from Best Buy) Note 20 Ultra 128gb, Mystic Bronze for the last five months, I gotta say I love this phone! I’ve owned older gen Notes and now see all the improvements over the years. Too many cool things to say about this phone; I’m still learning new features, etc.! Also what I thought were scratches on the thin top and bottom of phone turned out to be protective plastic; meant to be discarded after purchase! Lol. Battery is fantastic! SD a amazing! Clear kickstand case is way to go for me. This will be your goto device for everything. Advise; learn the details to get the best performance. Although Macro photography could use some help on future Notes. Did I mention I love this phone?Nice price, but not as advertised. The handset couldn’t be used with Verizon in the northeastern USA. And the bottom and top edges where scratched. I’m assuming it was produced in the factory that way. Too bad I can’t get back all of the time I spent with this dud.

I am disappointed of the battery life for such a nice phone. The battery life is not what I expected. I am not a heavy phone user but so far I have to charge the phone twice or thrice a day. The note 10 I used to have, I would charge it once a day. I am very disappointed by the battery life of this note 20 ultra which supposed to be a better phone.

Samsung does well. Samsung and Apple have been having this rivalry for who has the better phone for a while. Between the two devices the Samsung note 20 ultra has better features, better design and less lag at least when i was using it. One thing it lacks is i message. However, the phone is much more fun to use. Especially the s pen. Over the many years, the devices have improved. Although I love the note 20 ultra, the box was missing a very important accessory. This accessory was the akg headphones that were supposed to come in the box considering how expensive the phones are in the present. Missing this piece is really frustrating and samsung did not give me the headphones so now I have to purchase new ones. I also did not get the galaxy buds which would have been a great addition. Overall having experience with both the top 2 flagship, I prefer Samsung. The biometrics are flawed when turning the screen on and it won’t turn on so I have to push the button on the side. The bottom only had one speaker grill and that is annoying as well. The hole in the top is also a defect that needs to be erased. The best parts of the Samsung note 20 ultra is the customizable features to the screen images and the s pen. The camera looks super premium and has very good quality. The front camera is also much better than previous models for selfies. I hope this helps. It gets tough to get used too if you owned an i phone.

It’s a great phone with flaws. This is my fourth Note with the last being the Note 8. The Note 20 Ultra 5g has a slightly better battery life and includes the 5g radios. The Note 20 Ultra also has a slightly better camera than the Note 8. Otherwise, the navigation speed despite all the hype is about the same. I use the Nova Prime Launcher, so my Note 8 and 20 look nearly identical. In fact, except for the Note 8’s notorious screen burn, I likely wouldn’t notice the difference when accidentally picking one up randomly over the other.The Note 20 Ultra is a great phone and my wife has the iPhine 12 Pro Max. There’s simply no comparison between the two, the Note 20 Ultra is simply the better phone in nearly all aspects (despite the paid report/reviews you read). If you’re in the iOS space, the iPhone 12 is snappy and has decent cameras. It also offers 5g, although I see no difference on Verizon’s version of 5g on the iPhone (my Note 20 Ultra is on T-Mobile).What I don’t like on the Note 20 Ultra are the buttons (now all on one side) and the fingerprint reader that has about a 30% success rate.Although I’ve had Samsung phones, I’m not a Samsung fan. Their bloatware is excessive and their constant sneakingly pushing you into Samsung’s account services that conflict with Google’s superior products are shameful. Samsung’s hardware is very good while the software and practices are unfortunate. I’ve only stuck with the Samsung line for one reason, the S-pen. I don’t use it often, but, when I do I like it. Now that Samsung calls this the end of the road for the Note line, my next phone won’t be a Samsung unit. Til then, I like this phone and mated with the right case makes it a nice daily driver.

Overall a good phone. It is actually an international model so you can’t expect any warranty on it. And Some carriers are not compatible for now.

Sharp looking phone and very functional. Beautiful machine all aspects run in top formSeller Breed delivered all they promised

Very Disappointed. Took forever to get here, then they deliver to wrong address. After I hooked up to my cell phone carrier, my 4G & 5G networks disappeared.This phone is defective, Samsung Pay, Visual Voicemail will not run on this phone. Trying to get help from Samsung. If Warrenty does not my phone to operate correctly, I’ll return for a replacement or refund.

Do not buy. The phone just stopped be compatible with my network, the only explanation i had that the merchandise may have been stolen. I would not recommend making this purchase.

decepcionado. regrese al Note 9, este nuevo teléfono ultra 20 de Samsung tiene mucho mejor cámara, pero se reinicia a cada momento, no tiene Samsung Pay, el teléfono un día desconoció mi patrón y se bloqueo, ya no sirvió

Finally got what I wished for a beautiful noteHardware and software are perfectly fine device is not rooted and carrier is unlockedJust love it

Buy it. I was so nervous at first but I have had this phone for over a year with no issues. I wanted to wait and use my phone before giving a honest review.Camera is amazing no glitches. Great quality. I would definitely buy from seller again.

Phone Overheats and Battery Dies. The phone overheats.The battery dies quicker than normal.The phone takes extremely long to charge even when using a fast charger.The back arrived unattached. There is a delay in response with the touch screen.The phone “looks” nice and it’s actually unlocked. But I would not purchase from this seller ever again. Very disappointed.
