Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra Cosmic Grey 128GB 5G SM-G988BZADNZO review

There's definitely a uncouth, almost brutal way in which the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra assaults the Android phone market in my mind, with it wielding hyper premium hardware, connectivity and camera specs like a barbarian warlord in the midst of battle.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra has to prove a lot to justify its ultra-high price tag of PHP69,990 (12GB + 128GB). For PHP14,000 more than the S20+, you’re essentially getting a bigger screen, bigger battery, faster charging, a new set of cameras, and the vague possibility of 5G (here in the...

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra Review

The Galaxy S20 Ultra is too big, too heavy, too expensive, and its camera struggles with focus issues. The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is a true groundbreaker that defines what we'll be doing with our phones, and with 5G, for the next few years. But after looking at all three Samsung Galaxy S20 models, I've decided the Ultra is just too much. It's too expensive, it's too heavy, and its vaunted "100x" camera takes up to four seconds to lock in focus.

Available in black or gray and made of shiny yet surprisingly fingerprint-resistant glass, it's quite slippery, and trying to take pictures with it is a...

$1,400 is a huge amount of money for a phone, but the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G gives you a lot in return – figuratively and literally. Siping the rarified air at the very top of Samsung’s 2020 phone line-up, the biggest of the S20 trio has the most excessive camera, the largest screen, and the...

If you’re a Samsung fan, I don’t think I’ll have to convince you to buy this phone. It’s exceptional.
