I said the same thing. I keep thinking "well maybe when the S23 drops". But that isnt guaranteed still. As of now i really dont see any reason

Same thing for my Note 10+

All they are doing now is taking features away. No sd card slot, no charging brick in the box, no meaningfully faster processor or better cameras, no better ui or design features = no thanks ill keep my phone

@@andrewn924 Cameras are better, though I supposed if you added in "no meaningfully better" for the cameras as well then..... maybe yeah. But the s22ultra is a bit better in quite a few ways. ALTHOUGH I agree with you on that damn lack of an SD card. I can deal with no headphone jack and some things, but the SD card slot is the only thing - at this point though I might change my mind - that is stopping me from just getting the 22u right now. Not even the price, they have it "renewed/literal new condition" on amazon for under 800 right now. If it just had the f**king sd card slot they would have made a new customer.. but IDK I won't pay that much more for the 512 and thats the only way to ensure I DEFINITELY never run out of space. It is annoying really because they do it to save THEMSELVES money, and to ensure WE PAY MORE. That is why its f**ked up to me. not very "lifeblood focused" in my opinion. Lifeblood = Customers.

But u shouldn't buy it if ur looking 4 a phone just because of long javity of this phone is coming to an end

This! I love my note 20 ultra. Best phone I've ever owned. Haven't had any issues at all

S10 has been brilliant for me. My next phone is note 20 ultra 5g. I'm skipping the s23.

@@samwbh6951 have u got it? I'm thinking to get one too

@@samwbh6951 have you get it how does it work

Ditto 🤭

Hello yeah. Big facts

Time to move beyond MP3. Even with ultra quality, 1TB can still hold thousands of titles.

me too ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

What's new? Since day one Samsung is giving 4 years of software update

Actually at the time Samsung made a big deal about supporting the No20 for much longer... out of Nowhere they have walked it back to 3yrs. That's bs, but Typical of Samsung. They basically do Whatever they want, flouting our FTC laws. In this case, they want to Erase the Note name, and platform. They've realized that the only way to increase volume sales is to remove their Do All product. It's the exact same reason that you cannot get a regular Station Wagon from Toyota. -But at least Toyota respects their customers and plays by American trade rules ~

@@TechnicalUsama not the main Android updates though

To be honest, it doesn't really matter if they do or don't. Your Note20 Ultra won't do any new tricks even if it gets 5 new Android versions. It'll still have the same processor and camera. Nowadays new android version really only mean slight UI improvements, maybe some new navigational gestures. But let's face it, we already know how to use everything on our phones in the most efficient way so any new changes won't really improve our life or how we use our phones. Whatever UI or optimization improvement they bring, it won't even save you as much time as you spent writing that comment 🤔. The only single reason I like long software support is that I look forward to getting something new, like if I was a kid unwrapping a present 😀. And the joy is over the moment I install the update, because I already know the update won't really improve my life anyway, and now there's nothing to look forward to for another year until new Android version releases 😅.

If we are lucky, five years of security patches like they did for s7.

Note range has been good. Note 20 is the bomb 💣

Same to all of the above. Mine says refurbished, but its like new.

Yup for me especially when playing youtube or games, so I mitigate that by carrying a small power bank everytime.

@@rafe8826 Im on the same boat.

The Samsung Note 20 Ultra is truly timeless!

yeah, same,my only issue is battery,other than that its a great phone

@@rafe8826 Crazy to know I'm not alone! Thinking about having the battery replaced after 2 years, but I wonder if it makes sense because the batteries that Samsung still has will also be a year old.

I'm with you on this. The S22 Ultra was tempting, but without the SD card support it's a total deal breaker for me. And there's no way I'm spending hundreds more to add more native storage if I'm still unable to expand it later without plugging something in.

Do you think 525 is worth it for a sealed one?

@@jibnerjuarez4288 I wouldn’t pay over 500 personally but if you’re asking about the Note 20 Ultra and it’s unlocked then that’s not too ridiculously overpriced. Also depends where you’re buying from. I snagged mine on eBay for a little over 400 open box a few months back.

@@RirtyDascal the thing I see it’s that it’s unlocked and comes with everything and the phone has its plastic it’s basically untouched besides the box being opened it’s 128gb

@@jibnerjuarez4288 they’re great phones and I’m certainly happy with mine. I’d use it with the display at the FHD+ setting with the high refresh rate to help save ya some battery life. If you can’t find a better deal where you’re at then I’d probably buy it. It runs android 13 great and one ui 5.0 is a nice little upgrade to the software. If you need the sd card slot and prefer to have an s pen then this is the phone for you at the moment. If you can live without either, there are plenty of phone fishies in the electronics sea out there.

you won’t be able to install lineage on a snapdragon note 20 as they are all bootloader locked. Only on exynos can you unlock the bootloader

@@Paul-fo9fq 😢

@@Paul-fo9fq Couldn't you bypass that? Like, cracking the bootloader via another method (obviously voiding the warranty, but who cares)?

Lmao keep it lying around and its battery will pop

@@cameronbosch1213 Yes you can, but doing so breaks Knox and all the apps that use it. No Samsung Pay, Pass, Wallet, Secure Folder, no biometric logins, certain banking apps will be unusable, certain Google Play store apps too since they use some kind of SafetyNet software to check for OS integrity. If you don't use any of those, then yes LineageOS could save us one day. But in the meantime, some freelance developers at XDA-Developers have made a bunch of exploits to achieve bootloader unlocking.

Samsung surprisingly sent security and other updates to older devices and I always thought that they'll surprise us with extended os updates to the note 20 ultra as it's specs are close to s21 and s22. Hope they will do it.

The new Notes are s22 ultra & S23 ultra.🤑🤣

Run out of space?? U can put an SD card an expand your memory.

@theDRIPg0d only up to 1 tb.. I have a huge film collection, 512gb built in memory and 1tb extra gets filled up very quick with pictures, videos, and movies all put together. I have nearly 5 years' worth of stuff on my nearly 3 year old phone. Stuff carried over from my old device's, videos and pictures. The add another 3 years worth of videos, pics, and a massive movie selection, 1.5tb is not a lot.

Remember to charge it once in a while xd, so battery doesnt swell up

I'm willing to bet that you're not going to be returning it because you're gunna fall in love with it! Lmao. I did!

Got my s10 5g still last phone with a headphone jack lol and then upgraded to s22 ultra I'm loving the new 2x Dynamic Amoled 6.8" Screen have to say I love the 1750nitts of brightness my old one has 1200 I think

@@Dark-dx1kv I still use it on a daily when I'm at home.

U should've waited for black friday, boxing or s23 ultra release and gotten the s22 ultra because the note 20 is being obsolete in few months.

It does really feel like Samsung didn't really discontinue the Note. I mean, yes, they discontinued the Note name, but the S22 Ultra is basically a 2022 Note (I even call it as such).

The S22 ultra is the new NOTE. Good news.

I can see in the edges of the screen a weird green colour (in the dark is very visible), also a weird glow around the selfie camera

Yes I know that it's a very good phone for the price that you're getting it today but the American price and the Canadian price is still on the pricey side we are paying in Canada if we choose this phone $800 if you get it on the Amazon it should be around $500 but then there is the exchange rate if it's Canadian so it ends up costing you $650 to $700 that's my take on that thank you

Just use OTG

Hows the battery life since its new? How long does the battery last you with typical use in a day?

Set you charging to 85% under Battery management Advanced. You extend the life~

Ahhhh... I see we have a peeping Jane! I love my zoom too. 😉

Savage 😈🤣😈🤣😈

THAT WAS HARD. Lock your 👀 with them lol

True it is unbalanced on surfaces, but I wouldn't use it without a case. Its a gorgeous phone with quality materials all around.

How many Screen on time u can still get? I around 2-3 hours (exynos)

@KDBr04 I'm not sure how long i get.. i don't let it get too low (keep it between around 40-85%). But i would say i get at Least 5-6hrs. It's a very heavily used Snapdragon. But the battery has been well cared for, never let to get too hot, especially while charging in the summertime. If the battery is hot, Don't plug it in. Screen off and let it cool, Then plug it in. Hope that helps👍

@@georgehofgren6123 I never really paid attention to heat, only to battery %. Noticed the heat but still used it. That's why my battery is so degraded I guess

Yes, heat hurts your battery. At least now you know.... It takes even longer to feel it with a case on the phone. If it helps, in the summer, when the phone is already getting hot and i need to charge it, i put it under a fan. Also, there is a setting where you can have you phone stop charging @ 85%. When the phone attempts to get that last bit of charge into the battery, that also heats it up. Once it's @ 85%, I keep it plugged in. The phone generally will keep it there while I use it and not get warm ~

@@georgehofgren6123 I didn't know, thanks!

Just grabbed one in GOOD condition for $300. The cell phone market is legit these days. I refuse to shell out $1000. I'm hard on my phones, they never make it past 2 years. So a new phone is dumb

@@PeacefulPariah So you bought a hard used 2 year old phone & you think you'll get 2 more years of hard use out of it? Not likely. Battery, creen burn 1 more year security update.
