Samsung S20 series.

Fortunately, we experienced three phones before the release of the national version of the Samsung S20 series. I believe that after reading the following content, you will also have a more comprehensive understanding of the three mobile phones this year.

Next, let”s get started.

Pride of flagship aircraft.

At first glance, the three phones in the Samsung S20 series give me a “medium cup, large cup and extra large cup” feeling. Because their design languages are almost the same. The same matrix camera module, the same double-sided glass, and no other elements on the back except the Samsung logo, bring simplicity to the extreme. Of course, the 100x zoom of the Samsung S20 Ultra still has to be displayed, which is Samsung’s pride after all.

Maybe you are not a member of the appearance Association, but a good appearance will always attract our attention. What we got this time is the “floating oxygen blue” color matching S20, the brightly colored glass shows a youthful atmosphere, coupled with the smooth transition of the glass back, the grip feel is also excellent.

All three phones in the Samsung S20 series use a central hole-digging design, which is the same as the Samsung Note10 and looks very symmetrical. The only difference is that the R angle of the S20 series is more rounded, which is also the consistent feature of the S series. In terms of size, the three phones have 6.2,6.7,6.9-inch screens, but the screen scale and resolution are very uniform, all at 20:9 and 3200 x 1440 pixels.

In 2020, the “high refresh rate” screen will become standard for flagship machines. Samsung S20 series of three phones all support the refresh rate of 120Hz and the touch sampling rate of 240Hz, and the animation effect is more delicate when sliding, making people can’t help but want to slide twice more. However, after testing, I found that the Samsung S20 series can not achieve both 120Hz and 2K resolution, which may be to provide more lasting battery life.

 
Samsung S20 series is equipped with 4000mAh, 4500mAh and 5000mAh batteries respectively.

When it comes to battery life, all three phones have great battery capacity. The largest Samsung S20 Ultra has a 5000mAh battery, the Samsung S20 + is a 4500mAh battery, and even the smallest Samsung S20 is equipped with a 4000mAh battery. And most importantly, the S20 weighs only 163g and 186g, which is undoubtedly laudable for a flagship 5G phone.

As for the Samsung S20 Ultra, although it weighs 221g and is half a kilogram thick with a mobile phone case, you will think that the weight sacrifice is worth it as long as you see its camera module.

New image benchmarking.

You want to take a clear picture? It has a 108 million pixel master shot and a 1.33inch outsole that crushes everything; do you want to go high and look far, or even take a picture of the moon? It has 48 million pixel periscope telephoto, up to 100x zoom band you can see in the distance. Coupled with a 12-megapixels ultra-wide-angle lens and a ToF lens to shoot scenery and portraits, the Samsung S20 Ultra has not only done a good job, but also done a complete job.

Before I started, I was worried that in 100 megapixel mode, the shooting speed and photo loading speed of Samsung S20 Ultra was not fast enough, but after the actual test, I found that it could be completed in the first time, whether it was taking pictures or loading photos. At the same time, after magnification and magnification of the sample, I could still see clearly, and the powerful performance of it also dispelled my doubts.

By default, the Samsung S20 Ultra master will output a 12-megapixels photo for us through nine-in-one pixels. This high-quality photo is not only full in color, but also less noisy, and the size of a photo is about 3 megabytes, so it doesn’t take up too much storage space.

Another secret weapon of the Samsung S20 Ultra is this 48 million-pixel periscope telephoto lens. Although this is the first show of a periscope lens on a Samsung phone, I was pleasantly surprised by its completion. The lens supports up to 10x optical zoom and 100x digital zoom, and officials have thoughtfully designed options such as 1x, 10x and 100x for us in the camera interface. And after more than 20 times zoom, the phone will actively prompt us to zoom area, making it easier for us to capture the picture more accurately.

By comparison, the Samsung S20 and S20 + upgrades are like regular upgrades to the S10 series. The newly upgraded 12 megapixels main camera fully demonstrates Samsung’s determination to hammer myself, with a 1.76-inch outsole, 1.65 times larger than the Samsung S10, and a significant increase in light intake. The 64 million-pixel telephoto lens, which supports 3x optical zoom and 30x digital zoom, can be photographed by PPT in the back row of the classroom. As for the 12-megapixels ultra-wide-angle lens, needless to say, it would be impossible to shoot the scenery without it.

Of course, there are some slight differences between Samsung S20 and S20 +. S20 + has one more ToF lens than S20, so matting will be more accurate when shooting portraits.

Video is also an improvement of Samsung’s S20 series. The Samsung S20 series all support shooting 8K video, and while shooting video, we can also get 33 million pixel pictures in the video. However, 8K video has high requirements for picture brightness, there will be obvious noise when the picture is darker, and the phone will turn off the anti-shake function when shooting, so I think 8K video is still a “just play” function. In addition, in terms of innovative play, Samsung S20 series has added a “single shot” function, which can use different cameras and filters with the help of AI to show different effects and make taking pictures more interesting.

Top performance.

Finally, let’s take a look at the performance of the three mobile phones. The national version of Samsung S20 series are equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon865 mobile platform, support dual-mode 5G, with LPDDR5 memory and UFS 3.0flash memory, properly located in the first echelon of performance.

And the Samsung S20 series also has the necessary elements of flagship phones such as dual speakers. The effect of stereo also makes the S20 series become a brand-new entertainment artifact in our hands.

Write at the end.

This year’s Samsung S20 and Samsung S20 may be missing some eye-catching elements, but the strong overall performance, as well as Samsung’s consistent good software experience, can also prompt many consumers to switch to new phones. With powerful hardware such as 100 million pixel camera and 48 million pixel periscope telephoto, the newly added Samsung S20 Ultra, can be said to have successfully set the benchmark of the flagship image in 2020. If you are a person who loves to use a mobile phone to record your life and share things with others, I think this mobile phone will be the best choice for you.
