  • - Hey guys this is Austin,

  • and these are 10 things you need to know

  • about the brand new Galaxy S20.

  • Number one is a big one, the price.

  • So the brand new Galaxy S20 starts at $1,000,

  • and that's for the base model.

  • So the Galaxy S20 starts at that $1,000 price point.

  • If you want to go up to the S20 Plus it's $1,200,

  • although it can go higher

  • based on if you want more storage

  • and then to top it all off you have the S20 Ultra at $1,400.

  • And then it also has a higher end model.

  • Now to help counteract this

  • they do actually have the standard S10e, S10,

  • and S10 Plus from last year still around,

  • and they are all getting a $150 price cut.

  • But when you put all this together,

  • there's certainly nothing wrong with an expensive phone.

  • I mean the iPhone 11 Pro is a great example of that,

  • but when we're talking about $1,000 plus

  • for these new flagships,

  • they had better bring some serious features.

  • Thankfully they do, but I mean,

  • you better be prepared to pay (laughs).

  • Number two is actually a legitimate feature

  • that does help justify the price,

  • and that is the 120 hertz display.

  • Now by default, all three of the Galaxy S20's

  • will run at full HD resolution and 60 frames per second,

  • very much like last year.

  • However, you do have the option of bumping all of them up

  • to that full 120 frames per second.

  • After spending a lot of time

  • with the OnePlus phones of last year

  • with their 90 hertz displays,

  • it does make a big difference.

  • Now, yes I will completely admit

  • that going from 90 to 120 frames per second's

  • probably not gonna be a big deal,

  • but considering that pretty much everyone

  • who's going to be upgrading to these S20's

  • is coming from a a standard 60 frames per second display,

  • it is so much smoother.

  • Although, it's not necessarily that straightforward.

  • The issue is that you can't have your resolution

  • and your frame rate at the same time.

  • So all three devices have QHD displays, which look great,

  • but if you want to run it all full resolution

  • you have to run it at only 60 frames per second.

  • The 120 option only exists

  • when you're running at full high definition.

  • Now 1080p is not bad on say the S20,

  • which has actually a fairly nice 6.2 inch display.

  • Once you jump up to the S20 Plus, and specifically the Ultra

  • with it's ridiculous 6.9 inch display,

  • HD just doesn't quite cut it.

  • It is noticeably softer,

  • and while I personally love that super smooth

  • 120 frames per second action,

  • you're actually making a legitimate sacrifice with that.

  • Now is it something that I will personally do?

  • Yeah, probably,

  • but it really shouldn't be the way it is

  • on a $1,400 phone.

  • Now if I can just shamelessly plug something for a second.

  • My brand new podcast went live this morning

  • called The Test Drivers.

  • In it we talk a lot more in depth

  • about the Galaxy S20 as well as lot of the things

  • such as the screen which are slightly nefarious trade offs.

  • So it's co-hosted by my good friend Mike Hurley,

  • and on The Test Drivers, what I really want to do

  • is go much more in depth than I can

  • in a 10 minute YouTube video, right?

  • So the podcast is really there

  • to not only talk much more in depth about technology,

  • but also about what it means

  • to actually daily drive something, right?

  • 'Cause these S20's seems very interesting,

  • and as you'll see later in the video

  • there's a lot of really cool features.

  • But at the end of the day,

  • it's one thing to do a hands-on

  • it's another thing to actually spend time

  • really living with these devices.

  • So if that sounds interesting to you

  • or you just want to be a supporter,

  • please go give The Test Drivers a try.

  • It's available at the link in the description,

  • Spotify, Pocket Casts, Apple Podcasts, wherever,

  • or you can just go check it out at relay.fm/TheTestDrivers.

  • Reason number three is 5G.

  • So well this is technically not new this year

  • there was an S10 model with 5G last year.

  • However, it was very limited

  • and only a few people actually bought it.

  • However, this time every single Galaxy S20 you can buy

  • has 5G built in.

  • Well, technically.

  • So right now there are a couple of competing 5G standards.

  • There's one known as Sub-6

  • as well as there's mmWave.

  • So Sub-6 is becoming fairly popular

  • specifically here in the United States thanks to T-Mobile.

  • So they've actually already turned on their full 5G network

  • and this is essentially an evolution

  • of the 4G speeds that we have today.

  • Coverage is very similar,

  • and the speeds are better

  • but say it's the difference between like

  • 40 and 80 megabits per second.

  • It's good but it's nothing completely revolutionary.

  • Other carriers such as AT&T and Verizon here in the States

  • are focusing on their mmWave 5G.

  • Now this is where you get those crazy speed tests

  • of a gigabit per second or more,

  • however it comes with a major downside.

  • The coverage is incredibly limited.

  • Like literally, you can walk around a corner

  • and go from a gigabit down to like nothing with this.

  • So really the best case scenario for 5G

  • it to have a phone which supports

  • both mmWave and Sub-6.

  • Sort of the best of all words,

  • and that is what you get

  • except not on the standard S20.

  • So the way it breaks down is like this,

  • the standard Galaxy S20

  • only supports Sub-6 5G, which is fine,

  • and it's really enough for most people.

  • However, when you go up to the S20 Plus

  • as well as the Ultra,

  • they support not only Sub-6

  • but also that mmWave

  • which means that you can get way, way faster speeds

  • but in very limited situations.

  • It's really a future proof play,

  • but that's I think a legitimately really big selling point

  • for that new S20 Plus and S20 Ultra.

  • Really what you're getting here

  • is something which should look much better into the future,

  • but you also have to deal with the fact that

  • well you spend $1,000 you get 5G

  • but it's not full 5G,

  • 'cause that's not confusing right?

  • Now with a 120 hertz display and standard 5G

  • my next favorite point

  • is a really obvious one, battery life.

  • So while, yes the S10 had decent battery life,

  • the S20 bumps it up in a big way.

  • At least on the battery size of the equation.

  • So the S20 has a 4000 mAh battery.

  • The S20 Plus has 4500 mAh.

  • If you go up to the S20 Ultra it's a thick boy

  • with 5000 mAh of battery capacity.

  • Now that sounds really impressive.

  • It's much better than what we got last year,

  • but the issue is is that with that power hungry screen,

  • and a 5G radio inside,

  • you're probably gonna need that.

  • So while I haven't had enough time

  • to actually do any kind of real battery life tests,

  • I will be surprised if the battery life

  • is actually anything all that impressive.

  • I really do feel like these bigger batteries

  • are probably purely there just to power

  • all these new features,

  • but we'll have to wait and see on that one.

  • That said though,

  • I'm glad they at least decided to increase the battery size

  • and not just throw these fancy new things at you and go,

  • "Oh yeah, charge it in three hours."

  • Ah, what a beautiful fountain

  • to go onto our number five point, the zoom.

  • So cameras of course are a huge component

  • of every modern smartphone.

  • When it comes to the S20 things get a lot closer,

  • a lot more zoomed, we're zooming in on the truth.

  • So the standard S20 as well as the S20 Plus

  • have a three times telephoto zoom

  • which is much better than the two times of last year.

  • However, what really takes the cake is the S20 Ultra,

  • with a massive 10 times optical zoom.

  • Yes, 10 times.

  • That's a lot of times.

  • Now funnily enough,

  • Samsung actually claims this to be 100 times space zoom

  • on the back of the camera.

  • Now this is a slight exaggeration,

  • as to get to 100 times zoom

  • they're making a combination of that 10 times optical zoom

  • as well as a lot of digital zoom.

  • It's not exactly as great as it sounds.

  • However, you can get some super, super tight shots with it.

  • Now unfortunately, I can't actually show you

  • any of these shots

  • because the phone I was testing

  • was using pre-released software

  • so I can't actually pull any images off of it.

  • The results were good,

  • certainly not as good as a full 100 times zoom camera,

  • but this is hands down

  • as far as like standard flagships of today

  • the best looking zoom lens I've ever seen.

  • A big reason for that is actually because

  • they flip the entire thing on its side.

  • So when you look at this zoom camera,

  • it's actually looking through a prism

  • so the camera lens is actually sideways in the phone.

  • This actually has some other sort of effects

  • that I'll talk about a little bit later.

  • But essentially what you're getting here

  • is a zoom which is pretty much unmatched by any iPhone

  • or Pixel, or LG,

  • or Asus, or wait no Asus actually has the Zenfone Zoom.

  • It's a really good zoom.

  • Number six is a big one.

  • It is 8K video

  • which Is standard across the board for the S20.

  • Now there's actually something really impressive about this.

  • While yes it is certainly not as good

  • as the 8K video that you would get on say a Red camera,

  • but what it is is a major step up

  • at least in actual real pixels.

  • When you consider that 4K is eight megapixels

  • and 8K is 33 megapixels

  • that is a lot of data to process on a phone video camera.

  • Now there are some limitations.

  • So the 8K video only records

  • at a maximum of 24 frames per second,

  • which is the correct frame rate anyway

  • but that is a little bit of a downside for some people.

  • But I think the bigger downside

  • is the fact that you can only record on certain cameras,

  • because you'd have to have enough megapixels

  • to do it in the first place.

  • So, on the S20 and the S20 Plus,

  • you have to use the three times optical zoom lens,

  • the telephoto camera to actually be able to record

  • since those are the only cameras

  • with more than 33 megapixels.

  • That's fine, although honestly it's a little bit

  • of a major downside

  • just because when you're trying to record 8K video

  • you are very, very zoomed in.

  • However, when you go up to the S20 Ultra

  • the main wide-angle camera has a ridiculous 108 megapixels

  • and I'll talk about that in a second.

  • But you can use that main wide-angle camera

  • to record 8K video,

  • which personally I think looks a lot better.

  • The downside here though

  • is that when it comes to recording 8K video,

  • you really have major limitations.

  • It's a nice thing to have, it looks decent,

  • but at the end of the day

  • based on at least my initial first impressions,

  • it's still probably not as good

  • as say like the 4K on an iPhone.

  • The number seven might not sound like a big deal,

  • but just hear me out here.

  • It is the camera sensor size.

  • Now we all know at this point

  • when it comes to buying a new smart phone,

  • camera is one of, if not the top priority.

  • Not only if it means you're upgrading from your last phone,

  • or even if you're just shopping between the like Pixels

  • and the iPhones of the world.

  • The camera matters a lot.

  • Now well a lot of the advances that we've seen

  • over the last couple of years really come down to software,

  • at a certain point there's no sort of substitute

  • for just a bigger, better camera sensor,

  • and that's exactly what Samsung have done this year.

  • So, the standard camera on the S20 and S20 Plus

  • is 1.6 times bigger,

  • which to be clear was already pretty big last year.

  • However, what really takes the cake is the S20 Ultra.

  • It's main 108 megapixel camera

  • is almost a full one inch sensor

  • or 1.33 inch sensor to be specific,

  • but it's really approaching something like a compact camera

  • like the Sony RX100.

  • Now this means that the image quality should

  • not only be better across the board,

  • now I know that they use a weird like

  • nine times pixel binning process.

  • So, even though you have 108 megapixels,

  • it's taking all of that information

  • and putting it into a very sharp looking 12 megapixel photo.

  • But put that side and what you should have here

  • is what I think is a real candidate

  • for the best phone of the year.

  • Best camera on a phone of the year.

  • That.

  • Number eight is a big one, literally.

  • The S20 Ultra is a thick boy

  • in the truest sense of the word.

  • Not only is it significantly thicker

  • thanks to that huge battery compared to the standard S20,

  • but on top of that it is heavy

  • and the camera bump is really, really tall

  • mostly because of that 10 times optical zoom camera.

  • Now come on, we've all been there,

  • we've all had a thick boy in our lives.

  • But the real issue with the S20 Ultra

  • is that all of this thickness is combined

  • with a 6.9 inch screen.

  • - [Ken] Nice.

  • - (laughs) Look, look, this is a big phone.

  • It's a big phone in every sense of the word.

  • It is also a big phone in the sense that

  • it is a very powerful, very battery hungry,

  • like it's a monster right?

  • It's really a step above

  • anything like the S20 or the S20 Plus,

  • but the downside though is that like, for me,

  • I can't really handle 6.9 inches in my hand (Austin grunts).

  • Number nine is simply the fact that these phones

  • are significantly more powerful than last generation.

  • So while we don't actually have,

  • as I'm recording this video,

  • the official spec of what's inside

  • beyond a seven nanometer next generation processor,

  • but it is almost certainly going to be

  • the Snapdragon 865 here in America in North America,

  • and the Exynos 990 in other parts of the world.

  • So really what you're getting here

  • is not only a very powerful processor,

  • but also a lot of RAM.

  • These guys all have 12 gigs of RAM across the board.

  • However, on the Ultra you can opt it up

  • to 16 gigabytes of RAM.

  • Yes, that's more than most people's laptops.

  • Now there are a couple

  • of actually legitimately really nice uses for this.

  • So even on the 12 gig of RAM phones,

  • you have an option to lock up to three apps of memory

  • so that it will not close them off in the background

  • and on the 16 gigabyte of RAM option

  • you've got five apps that you can keep open at once.

  • Which is, now is that actually, is that a lot,

  • or should you have more than five apps

  • that are like permanently open in RAM?

  • I guess it's kind of a nice thing to have.

  • But anyway, when you're charging $1,000

  • they got to find a way to justify it somehow right?

  • Meanwhile, the iPhone still has four gigs of RAM,

  • and Samsung's shipping 12 and 16 gigs.

  • Just saying, actually I don't know what I'm saying

  • 'cause it's not really relevant.

  • Android just eats up memory, it's fine.

  • And number ten we have good and bad news.

  • As this time around we still have the micro SD card slot

  • which can support up to an additional

  • one terabyte of storage.

  • But sadly the headphone jack is no more.

  • Can you see it?

  • Can you get really close there?

  • Goodbye Jack, it was nice knowing you.

  • - [Ken] He's been gone.

  • - No, he was on the S10 last year.

  • - [Ken] Oh, you're right.

  • - Yeah, feels like it was a long time ago right?

  • - Yeah - It's okay.

  • He's moved on to greener pastures.

  • Like Unbox Therapy's channel.

  • And again, definitely don't forget to go check out

  • The Test Drivers at the link in the description.

  • And if you enjoyed this video

  • make sure to subscribe to the channel,

  • because of course this is not the only

  • Samsung news of today.

  • Well maybe it is, but I don't think so.

  • I think there's something else

  • we might be able to talk about.

  • This is the universal sign for flip phone, right?

  • (rhythmic music)
