About the Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G
The Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G is the version of Samsung's last flagship Note that most UK buyers actually bought, adding 5G to a phone that was already the most complete stylus device Samsung had made. The 6.9-inch 120Hz display is enormous and still looks superb, the stainless steel frame and Gorilla Glass Victus back have aged better than the glass-and-aluminium of most rivals, and the S Pen responds in 9ms, which is the difference between a stylus that feels like a tool and one that feels like a gimmick. The camera system pairs a 108MP main sensor with a 12MP periscope offering true 5x optical zoom, and it also kept the microSD slot that Samsung deleted from later flagships. The catches are worth stating plainly. Software support has ended at Android 13 with One UI 5.1, so no further security patches arrive, and UK units use the Exynos 990 chip, which runs hotter and less efficiently than the Snapdragon 865+ version sold in other regions. Buy it for the S Pen and the screen, knowing the software clock has stopped.

Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G Specifications
Spec Scores
£1000-£1499 Phones · 33 phones
- Exynos 990
- Octa-core (2x2.73 GHz Mongoose M5 & 2x2.50 GHz Cortex-A76 & 4x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55) - Global
Based on calibrated CPU benchmark rankings (60%) and GFXBench GPU scores (40%). Apple chipsets included via editorial calibration since AnTuTu under-represents Apple's architecture.
- 6.9 inches
- 1440 x 3088 pixels
- AMOLED, 120Hz
Based on panel type (LTPO is the modern flagship gold standard), resolution, refresh rate, peak brightness, screen size, and HDR10+ / Dolby Vision support. Marketing peak-brightness claims are capped at 3500 nits to prevent inflation.
- Single camera setup
- 108 MP main camera
- 8K video recording
Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.
- 10 MP front camera
- 4K selfie video
Based on selfie megapixels and max selfie-video resolution.
- 4,500 mAh
- 25W wired, PD3.0
Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
