Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Green SM-N981BZGGNZO review
When looking at the specs sheets and comparing the Note20 and Note20 Ultra side by side the former seems to require quite a few compromises to be made. For example, 5G is not available in the lower-end model and the 60 Hz display is not befitting its class.
Pros:
- color-accurate display
- powerful S-pen
- spacious and fast USF 3.1 storage
- good cameras
- decent speakers
Cons:
- 5G not standard but optional
- no microSD support
- darker display than its predecessor
- only 60 Hz panel
- no aptX HD or Adaptive aptX

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Grey SM-N981BZAGNZO review
If you're looking for a phone with an integrated stylus then there's little better than the note-taking potential of this phone. Sure, its 'glasstic' rear and lack of higher refrsh-rate screen are little red marks against its specification, but you can buy the step-up Ultra model if you see that as...
Pros:
- Integrated stylus delivers key point of difference
- Great handwriting and notes input
- Powerful and fluid operation
- Neater design than Ultra version
- Versatile and capable camera system
Cons:
- Lacks a higher refresh-rate screen (it's 60Hz here)
- 'Glasstic' rear - surely this could be glass on such a flagship?
- Air Gestures still a gimmick
- Should really be a bigger battery in a phone this size

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Green SM-N981BZGGNZO review
The Galaxy Note20 5G is a more affordable option compared to its pricier sibling with much of the same aesthetics and gains access to the same processor, 5G connectivity and the full functionality of the series’ fabled SPen though if you are looking for better value and can live without the stylus,...

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Green SM-N981BZGGNZO review
The S Pen-equipped Galaxy Note 20 strips away some key features from the larger model in exchange for a lower price, but gets a bit lost in Samsung's crowded 2020 phone lineup in the process.
Pros:
- Excellent S Pen stylus
- Less expensive than the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and S20+
Cons:
- Middling value for the price
- Digital zoom isn't great

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Green SM-N981BZGGNZO review
The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 is the “cheaper” Note to buy this year. But it still has an MSRP of $999 and is lacking some pretty basic premium features to the point it’s insulting.
Pros:
- Powerful hardware
- Great overall camera performance
- Beautiful
- balanced design
- Samsung's AMOLED screen is still top-notch
- Enhanced productivity: multi-window
- S Pen
- DeX
Cons:
- $1,000 plastic phone
- Refresh rate stuck at 60 Hz
- Battery life is just OK

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Mint SM-N981BZGGNZO review
The Galaxy Note 20 is Samsung's new entry-level stylus-included smartphone for 2020, but it's one that doesn't seem particularly exciting for the usual Note-loving crowd. It highlights some more affordable features compared to its more exciting Ultra sibling but it may well be just as good for those...
Pros:
- Strong camera spec
- Improved S Pen
Cons:
- No curved edge
- Weirdly low-spec screen

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G Mystic Mint SM-N981BZGGNZO review
At least before the onset of the comet-like price decline, my first impression is that there is only one reason to buy the Galaxy Note 20 - if you really want that S-Pen badly and you're a huge Samsung fan anyway.
Pros:
- Great high-end hardware
- Sophisticated S-pen control
- Trendy design
Cons:
- Hefty launch price
- Space Zoom ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
