Here’s how much the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra 5G could cost in the U.S.

Like the local The Yonhap news agency claims the Note 20 may be the company’s “cheapest 5G mobile device in recent years” when it finally goes on sale, which is supposed to happen on August 21.

Of course, Samsung hasn’t been selling 5G-enabled phones for so many years, so this new rumor simply suggests that the Galaxy Note 20 will be cheaper than its predecessor, as well as the Galaxy S10 5G and Galaxy S20 family released in early 2020. You’re also not exactly looking for a price cut that breaks the ground, but any kind of cut is better than a hike.

That’s a difficult question to answer based solely on Korean labels, but since Note 10 generally costs $ 950 in the United States, it’s definitely possible. Apparently the 6.7 inches or so Galaxy Note 20 5G will go for 1,199 million won in its manufacturer’s homeland, which is roughly equivalent to $ 995 at the time of this writing.

That doesn’t sound particularly encouraging, but you should be aware of the 6.3 inches. The Note 10 variant was released nationwide at a recommended price of 1,248 million won last fall, while the 6.2-inch version The S20 5G started at exactly the same price about six months ago.

The worst case scenario right now seems to require a MSRP of $ 950 for the Note 20 5G, which sounds fair. After all, the phone is expected to settle for a plastic construction and A flat panel display with a traditional 60Hz refresh rate limit, but such a display will be much larger than that offered by the Note 10, which also lacked 5G connectivity in the U.S.

Compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy Note 20 5G should also upgrade the 12-64 megapixel rear-facing telephoto lens, as well as obviously replacing the outdated Snapdragon 855 processor with an 865 silicon.

With a dual-curved 120Hz display, premium design made of glass and aluminum, a rear-facing 108MP primary shooter, and 12 gigs of RAM as standard, the The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G is predictably not going to be cheap.

But at 1,452 million won ($ 1,205), this 6.9-inch absolute beast should only be a little more expensive than an entry level Note 10+ setup and significantly cheaper than a Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G. The latest model launched at 1.595 billion won in Korea, which means the Note 20 Ultra could be 10 percent more affordable.

Extrapolating that gap to the US makes us hope that Samsung’s next big thing will start at $ 1,250, though there’s even a chance the company could round that number up to $ 1,200. Considering all the ultra-high-end specs and cutting-edge technologies mentioned above, that’s really the best price we can hope for, though whether Samsung will be able to trade things for its remains to be seen. Sick flagship phones with those numbers.

Scheduled to be formally introduced along with the undoubtedly most expensive Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G on August 5, Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra 5G expected pre-order shortly after that highly anticipated unpacked virtual event and start shipping a couple of weeks later, at least in key markets like South Korea and the US.
