Presenting Samsung Galaxy S20+ & S20 Ultra 5G Smartphone
In general, Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G still live up to expectations. In the beginning of the year, it has become the device that most consumers will consider when buying Android phones in 2020. If you are looking for a reasonable size and strong performance, Photographs are outstanding, and the appearance does not fall on the vulgar mobile phone, so don’t hesitate, S20+ 5G can definitely get all your needs; if you are full of pockets, you want to make a breakthrough in the experience of the traditional Samsung S series flagship. All-round top performance, or you are a professional image creator, if you are jealous of the camera performance of mobile phones, then perhaps only a real machine emperor with various attributes such as S20 Ultra 5G can withstand Such a harsh test. It's just that the new ceiling of this smartphone is still somewhat unsatisfactory, such as 2K+120Hz, such as UFS3.1, maybe the former will be opened to us in the subsequent system upgrade, and the latter will appear in the second half of this year Note series of new models, but in any case, the current performance of Samsung Galaxy S20 + 5G and S20 Ultra 5G is good enough, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, do not worry about it will depreciate in experience.

At the beginning of this review today, I would like to ask everyone a few questions: "Who is the world's top screen manufacturer?", "Who is the world's top semiconductor manufacturer?", "Who is the world's top memory manufacturer?" ", "Who is the manufacturer of the highest pixel lens currently sold in smartphones?", "Who is the world's top Android smartphone manufacturer?", friends familiar with the industry will blurt out: "Samsung! The answer is Samsung! "Yes, with a production line that covers almost all electronic components, today's Samsung Empire not only has the hardware lifeline of most smartphone manufacturers around the world, but it can easily sit in the smartphone industry with such a unique advantage. Top spot. I would like to ask, when Samsung, who has the dual status of "top mobile terminal manufacturer" and "most important and most important hardware supplier in the smartphone industry", starts to "stack" its own mobile phone, who can fight one? Don’t think about it, there is nothing, such as the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G/S20 Ultra 5G series that was just released not long ago, their various hardware configurations and overall performance, other manufacturers envy, except for envy, it is estimated that they only follow the shout "666" Too.

A "true flagship" and a "real machine emperor", Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G /S20 Ultra 5G has caused a "Tianhu" posture on the hardware since the debut of the conference. Strongly concerned, many friends around me have already been wiped out and eager to test by their greedy parameters on paper, and the highly anticipated National Bank version of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G/S20 Ultra 5G is finally officially released today. Next, the bottle brother will bring you, it is the national bank version of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G/S20 Ultra 5G hands-on evaluation. It was only in February, but this year's Android emperor has already arrived early.
2K and 120Hz wonderful "view" world, only need one hand to grasp firmly. Perforated screens are no longer a new thing in the screen shape of smartphones this year, but it is strange to say that in order to reduce the "presence" of front openings as much as possible, the location of the screen punching can be said There are both left-to-right, but just like "Straight" like Samsung, who opened the "hole" in the middle, but no second in the industry. That’s right, the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G abandon the opening design in the upper left corner of the previous S10 series in terms of screen styling, and choose to continue the mid-level openings that were well received on the Note 10 series last year. Of course, the number of front lenses has also returned from dual to single. Samsung's "one-of-a-kind" straight hole position is matched with a smaller hole diameter, but unexpectedly it makes people feel that the order is not in violation. The same is a "punch" screen, S20+ 5G, S20 Ultra 5G front It seems to have a different sense of neatness.

Not only the number of front lenses, Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G have also made "subtraction optimization" in terms of the curvature of the screen. Compared with S10+ and Note 10+, their screens do not look on the side Extend too much downwards, "point to stop" with a slightly curved curvature, which makes them look closer to the display effect of traditional bar machines from the front, and nowadays the "curved screen" is very popular. Under the trend of becoming the “high-end” synonymous with flagship phones, Samsung has done such a “reverse approach” to the screens of the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G. The intention is to avoid the more common “common” on screens with large curvature. "Green edge problem", the second is to take into account the user experience of as many users as possible, to reduce the occurrence of misuse. After all, curved screens are not suitable for everyone, but the "bar-type machine" can do it. At the same time, the matte effect of the outer layer of the screen also made the texture of the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G soared in the state of extinguishing the screen.
But the surprises brought to us by the screen are far more than that. In today’s “high-brush screen” has become the “essential single product” of the high-end flagship, Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G are more radical. The entire system is equipped with a Dynamic AMOLED Infinity-O display with a resolution of 2K (3200×1400 Quad HD+), a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz, and a touch sampling rate of 240Hz. It is not only the dynamic AMOLED display of Samsung’s highest quality specifications. At the same time, the "in-screen hole" technology it supports has further improved the screen quality control of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G/S20 Ultra 5G. At present, the problem of the "hulu screen" that everyone is more concerned about perforated screens is almost It cannot happen, of course, this screen also supports HDR10+.

It is worth mentioning that the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G are also the first models in the industry to achieve a 120Hz refresh rate on LED screens. To know that the previously released 120Hz refresh rate mobile phone, the screen panel is made of LCD material, which means that in addition to the two mobile phones can have a smoother screen experience than 90Hz, you can also have an under-screen fingerprint unlocking mode group. That's right, the Samsung Galaxy S20+ and S20 Ultra are still equipped with their own "under-screen ultrasonic fingerprint module" in fingerprint unlocking, and the unlocking position has been moved up. Due to different working principles, compared with optical screen fingerprints, the ultrasonic fingerprint module uses "sound waves" instead of "light waves" to realize fingerprint recognition. Therefore, under extreme conditions such as wet hands and finger peeling, the ultrasonic fingerprint is unlocked The performance is more trustworthy. After our actual experience, the unlock performance of Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G is still fast and stable.

But one thing to note is that the full range of Samsung Galaxy S20 does not support 2K resolution and 120Hz screen refresh rate simultaneously, that is to say 120Hz only supports running in FHD+ resolution mode, after switching to 2K resolution, the screen The refresh rate will return to 60Hz, but according to the latest news from Samsung, Samsung's internal R&D department is upgrading and optimizing here, and the refresh rate and resolution issues will be resolved within 1-3 months.

As the two models with different positioning, the two will naturally differ in the details of the screen. The Galaxy S20+ 5G is more in line with the status of "S10+ Orthodox follow-up model". Its screen size is 6.7 inches, with 525PPI, and the peak brightness can reach 1200nit; while the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is more inclined to "above the flagship", laying the machine style The product's screen size is 6.9 inches, with 511PPI, peak brightness can reach 1342nit. For the "color accuracy performance" that everyone began to emphasize this year, although the official did not mention too much, we found their special test data for the Galaxy S20 Ultra's screen from the official website data of the well-known foreign authority, DisplayMate. The final result shows that the screen color accuracy JNCD of the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is less than 0.5. Such a top-notch screen quality, the next plant should be greedy. With the narrowest screen bezel in the industry, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G turned on, and we couldn't help but blurted out the words "wow, awesome".

Speaking of this year's biggest change in the Samsung S series, undoubtedly comes from the change in the shape of the back camera module. The Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G both use a rear four-shot lens group, and the shape is also drastic. After changing the strip arrangement on the previous S10 series and Note 10 series, a more compact matrix design is adopted. Samsung also provides It takes the name of an image: "SPACE ZOOM (Super Visual Space Zoom)" miniature world. And the S20 Ultra 5G's telephoto lens is also printed with a large "100X" LOGO, which reminds us that it has once again refreshed the limit of smartphone photography-supporting up to 100 times digital zoom. 100 times! The "Hubble Telescope" in the mobile phone industry is a real hammer. Regarding the camera part, we will talk with you in detail later.
In terms of color matching, this time we got the S20+ 5G version of the floating oxygen blue and the S20 Ultra 5G version of the gray version. The overall body is still a familiar combination of "positive and negative double glass body + metal frame". This is from the Galaxy S6. The iconic design language of Samsung S series since. Oxygen blue is fresh, natural, and full of energy. With the change of light angle, it will vaguely reveal the laser texture similar to the previous Note10+5G Monet color color version. Just like the young people now, full of energy and no lack of care. It seems that Samsung has tasted a lot of sweetness from "Monet" before. And the daydream gray is more calm, but not rigid, looks more mature and full of content. Both are transparent and full of three-dimensionality against the glass backboard. The S20+ 5G is smart, and the S20 Ultra 5G has a deep business. The different color styles further illustrate Samsung's distinctive positioning for the two models.
If you want to keep the 3.5mm headphone jack on the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G this time, it is estimated that you will be disappointed, but Samsung randomly provided a set of AKG headphones with a USB Type-C interface, which is for us Some small compensation. Although there is no headphone jack, we were pleasantly surprised to find the microSD card expansion slot that has not been seen for a long time on the frame of the fuselage. It can continue to provide users with the template capacity of 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB today. "Expansion card support", I have to say that Samsung really considers it from the heart of users in certain details, which makes people feel intimate. According to official information, the Galaxy S20+ 5G /S20 Ultra 5G all support microSD card capacity expansion up to 1T, plus the phone's own capacity, reaching 1.5T of storage space is not a problem. The burst capacity is not enough? nonexistent! I watched the laptop with only half of its capacity around me swearing out of the live broadcast room...

In terms of grip, the Galaxy S20+ 5G weighs 186g, while the larger S20 Ultra 5G weighs 220g, which is nearly half a pound heavier than the S10+ and 13% thicker, but it is a "Huang Fan" after all. "Big mobile phone", the increase in volume is still understandable. However, although the latter is wider and thicker, it can still be used with one-handed ease of operation, perhaps because of the 20:9 ratio of the fuselage, its actual hands-on experience is quite magical.
"Not intentionally different from the others" is our overall impression of the appearance of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ and S20 Ultra. The curvature of the reduced screen is obviously to cater to the tastes of more consumers, and the change in the shape of the "matrix camera" has reactivated our eyes that have been a little bit fatigued by the distribution of the mainstream strip-type mobile phone camera lenses. Samsung This change in the Galaxy S20 series may bring new inspiration to designers. From the current news, some manufacturers have begun to "follow up". The stability is stable, and the change is changing. For the appearance of the squeeze, Samsung this time is still free, and targeted.
100x digital zoom, perceptible at long distances, a new generation of 108 million pixels, visible at the end. Although Samsung has already divided the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G models in different styles in terms of size and color matching, the "camera" is undoubtedly the highlight of this S20 series. The 5G era will inevitably usher in a social mode dominated by new streaming media such as short videos, and this will undoubtedly launch a new round of camera skills for everyone's shooting tool, mobile phones. Test. Samsung has clearly realized this for a long time. From the press conference, it can be seen that the "image" will be the top priority of this S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G products. Samsung even does not hesitate to weaken various " The hardware configuration of the "first launch" is just to highlight the breakthrough of the S20 series in smartphone images, especially the S20 Ultra 5G, 108 million pixels + 100 times digital zoom + professional zoom viewfinder, the smartphone shooting ceiling is just like Samsung The hand was born spontaneously.

As mentioned in the previous appearance, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G both use a matrix rear four-shot lens group. The former uses a 12-megapixel wide-angle main camera (f1.8 aperture) +1200 Megapixel 120° super wide-angle lens (f2.2 aperture) + 64-megapixel telephoto lens (f2.0 aperture) + ToF lens "Samsung classic camera combination", in which the telephoto lens will support 3× hybrid optical zoom, Up to 30× ultra-high resolution zoom. The latter, as a benchmark for the S20 series, uses a new generation of ISOCELL Bright HM1 (S5KHM1) 108 million pixel main camera (f1.8 aperture) + 48 million pixel periscope telephoto lens (f3.5 aperture) +12 megapixel 120° super wide-angle lens (f2.2 aperture) + ToF lens combination, its telephoto lens supports up to 10x periscope hybrid optical zoom, and incredible 100× ultra-high resolution zoom, true 2. Astronomical telescopes in the mobile phone industry, no wonder Samsung officials will call it "SPACE ZOOM". It seems that the goal of the S20 Ultra 5G is to conquer the "star sea" with the camera! Both main camera and telephoto lens support OIS optical image stabilization and PDAF phase focusing function. In addition, Samsung is aware of the previous camera's shortcomings in low light and shooting moving objects. Starting from the bottom, the S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G are equipped with a larger sensor, which is nearly three times the previous generation Galaxy S10, thanks to As a result, the S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G have gained greater light input and higher clarity in night shots.
From the daytime proofs of the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G, we can see that in the default mode, which is also 12 million pixels, the main camera of the two phones is very competitive in the daytime proofs. The film quality is clear, the details are preserved richly, the colors are colorful and pleasing, and the white balance has not deviated. When it came to the night shooting session, the performance of the two films was equally amazing. After turning on the "night mode", the overall brightness of the picture in the proofs has been significantly improved. After the large-size photosensitive element, Al multi-frame synthesis technology and multiple ISO synthesis, the overall expression of the picture is very strong, and the amount of light entering the lens is visible Sufficient. At the same time, the suppression of strong light sources is also in place, there is no phenomenon of overexposure, while ensuring the color of the picture and the clarity of the dark place, while maintaining a high degree of picture purity, noise and smearing phenomenon rarely occur; faster Shutter speed to avoid image blur caused by night movements, and these two phones also provide us with a more professional and night-time photography mode with artistic creation space.
Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G's ultra-wide-angle lens shots have a wider frame and field of view. In terms of perception, the subject will appear more magnificent. At the same time, we have not found distortion on the edge of the screen.
In the competition of zoom proofs, due to the different parameters of the telephoto lens, the difference in the focal length of the film began to appear. The perverted 100X ultra-high resolution zoom of the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is almost in a crushing posture, and it easily captures scenes farther than the Galaxy S20+ 5G. And due to the narrowing of the field of view of the framing frame at 100x ultra-high resolution zoom, in order to prevent us from getting lost when shooting, the S20 Ultra 5G also intimately added an auxiliary preview for us in the upper left corner of the interface in 100X zoom mode Window to facilitate the entire shooting process. Regardless of the focal length, whether it is the 1X, 3X, 30X proofs of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G, or the S20 Ultra 5G 1X, 10X, 100X proofs, their image quality in the hybrid zoom mode has hardly changed, and the high magnification In the ultra-high-resolution zoom mode, thanks to the OIS optical image stabilization and PDAF phase focusing function, the loss of image quality is further reduced, while ensuring the success rate of film output at high focal lengths. The zooming process of the whole shooting is extremely smooth and smooth, without the sense of lag when the traditional Android machine zooms. The change of each focal length is almost a seamless zero perception experience.

The Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G have added a more professional but less common ToF lens to the lens group, which allows the background blur photos of both to be processed more naturally, and the recognition between the subject and the background Accurate, the transition between the virtual and the real is more real.
In addition to the normal operation of these Samsung mobile phone cameras, what is really worth mentioning is the 108-megapixel main camera of the S20 Ultra 5G. Interestingly, the 108-megapixel main camera of the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G is not the ISOCELL Bright HMX that was previously supplied to Xiaomi, but a new ISOCELL Bright HM1 (S5KHM1), which Samsung called it in the official website's Newsroom announcement. "Next-generation 108-megapixel sensor."
The feature of this sensor is that it provides nonacell technology of nine-in-one pixel synthesis under the specification of 1/1.33 inch. Each pixel is 0.8μm in size, arranged in a 3×3 structure, and synthesizes a large pixel of 2.4μm, reaching Tetracell four. One pixel (1.6μm) twice the light input. Therefore, although the camera pixels of the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G are still 12 million, this is based on 12 million pixels with a large 2.4μm pixel. Compared with the 1.6μm HMX four-in-one, the dark light performance of the HM1 will be even better. Therefore, Samsung also emphasized the S20 Ultra's night photographing ability at the press conference many times, which is one of the best use cases of this CMOS large pixel high light input.
But at the same time, it also supports 108 million pixels of straight out photos, plus the maximum body capacity can be expanded to 1.5T, even if the photo is large, you can take as much as you want, save as long as you want.
In addition to photos, there are of course videos. Relying on the powerful image isp processing capabilities of the Snapdragon 865, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G all support 8K resolution video shooting, and can also be directly generated from the shooting. The 8K video extracts 33 million pixels of static pictures to share and upload to various streaming media.

At the same time, the upgraded "super anti-shake" mode, combined with AI algorithms and gyroscopes, further corrected the "left and right rotation jitter problem" in video shooting. The final effect of "staircase" becoming "elevator" can be said to be quite strong. . Unfortunately, as with the 120Hz screen refresh rate, the "Super Anti Shake" mode can only be turned on in 1080P video resolution mode.

Finally, the most impressive part of the entire S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G camera is this "AI one-click multi-shot mode". In this mode, the main camera and super wide-angle lens of the phone will take pictures at the same time.
Just need to press the "shoot button" and turn it for 3-10 seconds, S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G cameras can record all different types of photos and videos, you can easily select the best photos when shooting dynamic scenes, Portraits, standard photos and looping videos are all there.
In terms of selfies, the Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G is equipped with a 10-megapixel front lens, while the S20 Ultra 5G is 40 million. The film-making style is still Samsung's classic "Korean beauty". It can retain skin details such as pores while microdermabrasion and whitening, which will make many selfies adore, and when shooting video, front lens and rear lens It can be seamlessly switched in real time, which is a very practical experience for vlog creators.

From the "super vision shooting system" of the S10 series, to the now dazzling "SPACE ZOOM", it seems that seeking breakthroughs in imaging has become the "main story" that every generation of Samsung S series flagships must complete. According to the current camera performance of the S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G, Samsung has once again refreshed the industry's understanding of mobile phone shooting. For the tuning of its own mobile phone camera, Samsung has always been so confident, and its self-confidence has not been once. Let us down.
"Weakening" is not "weak", dormancy is the real gesture of performance monsters
After watching the camera performance, I don’t know if any friends will make the same conclusion as us: Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G, S20 Ultra 5G can shoot and process so many image materials in a short time, there is no strong hardware foundation support It is impossible to achieve such a "violent" operation.
However, the facts further support our conjecture. The National Bank version of Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G all launched Qualcomm's latest 5G flagship SoC Snapdragon 865, and the world's first LPDDR5 high-speed storage in terms of memory system. Regarding the advantages of both of them and paper parameters, we have already popularized science many times before. Interested friends can take a look at our previous evaluation, which is mentioned in detail.
In order to most intuitively show the powerful hardware performance of the two phones, we first conducted a comprehensive running test on the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G through the "Antutu" platform. The final results are as follows:
The two running scores properly led the flagship of the Snapdragon 865. "Stacking is the only way to improve performance." For this sentence, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G proved its rationality with practical actions. .
Immediately afterwards, we conducted a real game test on the two phones, and still used the two national-level mobile games of "Glory of the King" and "Peace Elite" as the test materials. Next, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G in our hands did not show any picture freeze during the running of the two games, but only slightly increased the temperature of the body, conveying that both of them are really down to earth. To mobilize performance to run the game. The large size screen, high screen ratio, smooth refresh rate of 120Hz high refresh rate and precise operation experience of 240Hz high sample rate, the whole game process is quite enjoyable.
With the help of the Snapdragon X55 5G modem, in terms of network standards, the Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G not only support the domestic mainstream SA/NSA dual-mode 5G, but also support WiFi 6 and millimeter wave band 5G networks. .
In terms of battery life, the S20+ 5G is equipped with a 4500mAh large-capacity battery, and the S20 Ultra 5G is equipped with a larger 5000mAh battery.
Both phones support 15WD wireless charging and reverse wireless charging, and are equipped with a 25W fast charging source as standard, compatible with QC2.0. The Galaxy S20 Ultra will also support 45W accelerated charging, but the 45W fast charging head needs to be purchased separately.

In terms of system experience, One UI provides S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G with a maximum of 5 APP background manual lock resident functions to prevent the occurrence of APP death. The new music sharing function can make these two phones become The intermediary for pairing Bluetooth speakers. If your friends want to play music, it can be directly paired to your mobile phone instead of the stereo, and you can freely choose the playback source from the stereo and the mobile phone.
In Conclusion
Although it is only February, we have already seen the two most important mobile phones this year. The master's martial arts are not revealed, and the "machine emperor" is invisible. The so-called "flagship" is to weaken hardware performance and highlight product features. For details, see the chapter. The powerful "image" performance of Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G and S20 Ultra 5G is the best evidence of its top performance. Compared with the tireless publicity on paper, this penetration is everywhere in the whole machine. Only the silent hardware performance can bring people the best impact on performance. After all, for Samsung, the "top match" has changed from "selling point" to "normal". Unlike last year's S10e, there is no so-called cheap version of S20 this year, but the price reduction of the entire series of S10, and the Lite version of S10 and Note 10 instead. After taking into account the "low-end flagship" market, Samsung can also turn its attention to launch a "flagship in the flagship", which is S20 Ultra 5G.
