About this deal

One improvement Samsung has made with this S20 range is the punch-hole camera on the front of the phone. And 8K is limited to 24fps, so you’re not going to get all the bells and whistles you do with 4K and Full HD video.

The processor is fast, but was not energy-saving in any application scenario for me; even with energy-saving mode turned on, the battery unfortunately drained very quickly and generated a lot of heat during somewhat more demanding tasks. When first launched, Samsung has proudly labelled the Galaxy S20 Ultra as the “smartphone camera to end all cameras".As a result, I was concerned that this extra connectivity would drain the battery of the S20 Ultra but so far its 5,000 mAh battery has stood up rather well, lasting around two days. We spent two weeks with the largest of the new S20 range, the S20 Ultra, and though Samsung has refined some elements of its smartphone offering, there are some aspects of the device that we’re questioning. The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra has a host of excellent deals available but right now, this offer on Three is the best choice. The colours are cooler than the iPhone image which feels more atmospheric, whilst there is some nice blurring of the background to make the colours of the drink stand out more. Whether that be with the latest iPhones and Android handsets, breaking down how broadband works or revealing the cheapest SIM plans, he's in the know, and will help you land a bargain.

If anything is going to be competing with Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra deals, it will be the iPhone 11 Pro Max. Using 5G hogs battery life, and in part to counter this the Galaxy S20 Ultra has a 5,000mAh battery capacity, while the S20 Plus has a 4,500mAh battery. Sadly, that doesn't mean fewer accidental presses of the nearly bezel-less screen – Samsung still doesn't have excellent palm rejection software, so when we touched the edges with our grip and tried to press the shutter button in the camera app, the phone constantly thought we were trying to activate multi-touch and zoom in, instead of performing single press of a button. Too many times, camera team leads from various phone makers have told TechRadar “we would’ve fit in a better camera, but the design team won”– that’s a direct quote from one of them. The Ultra lasted 12 hours and 13 minutes in our battery drain test that ran through web pages on the T-Mobile LTE network.Yes, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is ready for use with 5G, so providing you’re signed up to a 5G plan, you can make the most of Samsung’s brilliant tech with incredible superfast speeds that will download movies in moments and load HD streams in seconds. g. where a defect is caused by misuse or unauthorised repair of the product) which must be checked before requesting service under the warranty.

As well, the chunky rear camera layout means it doesn’t sit flat on a surface so if you’re charging it on a desk, you have to be careful the phone doesn’t slide off onto the floor.

Luckily, we were able to trim the large 8K video files using the phone's built-in video trimmer, which we found handy. It's the 10x hybrid optical zoom that appeared most impressive in side-by-side photo comparisons with the iPhone and Pixel. Really, this device is more about the camera than anything else, with Samsung saying that this device can easily replace a DSLR. You’ve got plenty of options with the freedom to customise colour, sharpness and saturation to get that display picture perfect.

With a resolution that’s 4 times bigger than UHD and 16 times bigger than FHD, this smartphone’s 8K mobile resolution enhances your viewing experience like never before. The lower resolution saves battery life and – spoiler – it’s the only resolution at which you can experience the 120Hz screen refresh rate; that’s not QuadHD-compatible yet. The S20 Ultra has a monster spec list: 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 128GB or 512GB of internal storage kick things off. The telephoto lens on the smaller phones isn’t as good as the Ultra's but the wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses remain the same.The rest of the internal specs are all top-of-the-line: a 7nm chipset (Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 in the US, or Samsung’s Exynos 990 in the UK and Europe), 12GB or 16GB or RAM, 128GB or 512GB of internal storage, and a microSD card slot for expandable storage.
