PSA: Galaxy Note 20 Ultra LTE model has only 8GB RAM


Depending on where exactly you are in the world, you may find the idea of ​​paying for 5G unnecessary, and Samsung has already confirmed both the Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will be available in LTE configurations. However, this “entry-level” configuration of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will only be offered with 8GB of RAM. Not that 8GB is not enough yet, but it has to be assumed that every detail is important when you spend $ 1,299 on a smartphone. Especially so if you can get an argument better deal by going with the Galaxy Note 10+.

For while Samsung’s annual flagships are essentially never better because of their successors that offer more efficient processing, 2020 really delivered an early mix of unfortunate circumstances that saw the new Exynos 990 chip perform at very unremarkable levels for such ‘ n high-end silicon.

This is probably the model that makes the least sense to buy

Combined with the fact that both LTE-only variants of the Galaxy Note 10+ ship come with 12GB of RAM and that the base one is now permanently discounted to $ 949.99, you really should find out why exactly it is that you are buying a new smartphone before deciding to pay about one-third higher price for the luxury of taking an inverted proportional compromise over RAM.

That is not to say that this lowest Galaxy Note 20 Ultra configuration offers nothing over its prequel, but most people will find the camera difference and other differences between the two not to be heated compared to a raw boost for multitasking 4GB extra RAM can add. The Galaxy Note 20 series will be released on August 21st, and you can still pre-order it almost anywhere.
