- The detailed images and specs of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra have spilled into the most definitive leak yet.
- The 108MP camera is set to go back but without the S20 Ultra’s Space Zoom.
- Also prepare for closer integration with Microsoft gaming properties.
The most definitive leak so far has spilled a long list of features for the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Courtesy of WinFutureNow we have a very good idea of what to expect from Samsung’s mid-year flagship. Let’s start with the specifications.
Galaxy Note 20 Ultra: rumored specifications
The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra reportedly features a 6.9-inch AMOLED display with 3,200 x 1,440 resolution and variable refresh rates that can scale to 120Hz when needed. This should allow the phone to conserve battery power, but also reduce visual fluctuations while playing or recording video.
The pixel density of the screen is 508 PPI and that screen is also smeared in Gorilla Glass 7, which curves slightly towards the edges of the phone. Notably, it may be the first phone to offer the latest scratch-resistant coating from the American company.
Internally, WinFuture It only provided specs of the European version configured to receive the Exynos 990. That is the same silicon found in the Galaxy S20 series, so it may be disappointing for those looking to upgrade. North American versions could still see the Snapdragon 865 at its heart, but this has yet to be confirmed.
In terms of RAM, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will see a 12GB base paired with either 256GB or 512GB of internal storage. Samsung is also set up to add the microSD card slot back to its phablet as well. It will also have 5G support.
As for the set of rear cameras we’ve seen in previous leaks, we will reportedly see the return of the Galaxy S20 Ultra’s 108MP sensor, but in a “reworked” camera complete with laser autofocus and dual-pixel autofocus. The other two rear cameras have 12MP sensors. One will be attached to a wide-angle lens with an f / 2.2 aperture, the other to a telephoto lens that allows 5x zoom. This means that Samsung’s 100x Space Zoom experiment, at least in the Note series, is dead for now.

There is a 10MP selfie camera with f / 2.2 aperture mounted in an Infinity-O hole, the report added.
Other notable numbers include a 4,500 mAh battery that will take 30 minutes to charge from 0% to 50%. That’s definitely late compared to the fast charging standards set by Oppo and Realme. The aforementioned 120Hz refresh rate and 5G support make us wonder what kind of resistance we can expect as well.
The phone is said to be offered in Mystic Black or Mystic Bronze colors as previously rumored.
The smartphone for taking notes and playing games?
Now that the numbers are out of the way, what about the other features of the Note 20 Ultra?
For gamers, that 120Hz refresh rate could very well combine with Samsung’s collaboration with Microsoft and its Project xCloud game streaming service. The phone appears to be Samsung’s new leverage in the mobile gaming market, and users also gain access to Xbox Game Pass and its library.
WinFuture He also believes that Wireless Dex is coming to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, allowing users to project their smartphone’s desktop mode onto televisions and other compatible displays.
The S-Pen has also been redesigned to reduce its latency and add a “real feel” for those who frequently take notes. Writing with the S-Pen on this device is reportedly intended to mimic the feel of paper. Aesthetically, the stylus pen now features sleeker curves, but the only button remains. OneNote automatic integration is also on the way. There is no news of previous rumors about the S-Pen’s digital pointer functionality.
And that is. Samsung is set to announce the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, along with four other “key” devices, at its Unpacked event on August 5. Read more about the following.
