It looks like the new Samsung Galaxy Note 20+ smartphone has popped up on Geekbench, the handset is listed with the model number SM-N986U.
We are expecting to see a number of different models in the Galaxy Note 20 range, this device is listed with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, it is also listed with 8GB of RAM.
The 8GB of RAM is a little strange as the Galaxy S20 comes with 12GB of RAM as standard and the top model comes with 16GB of RAM, so we would expect the Galaxy Note 20 range of handsets to be the same.
The device is also listed running Android 10 and it is expected to come with One UI 2.5 when it launches later this year.
Expected Features and Specifications
The Samsung Galaxy Note 20+ is anticipated to come with a host of impressive features that will set it apart from its predecessors. Apart from the Snapdragon 865 processor and 8GB of RAM, the device is likely to feature a high-resolution display, possibly a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. This would make it ideal for gaming and media consumption, offering vibrant colors and smooth performance.
In terms of storage, we might see options starting from 128GB, with higher-end models offering up to 512GB. The device is also expected to support expandable storage via a microSD card, which is a feature many users appreciate.
Camera and Battery Life
When it comes to the camera setup, the Galaxy Note 20+ is rumored to feature a quad-camera system. This could include a 108MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, a 12MP periscope telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom, and a ToF (Time of Flight) sensor for depth sensing. This advanced camera setup would make the Galaxy Note 20+ one of the best smartphones for photography and videography.
Battery life is another crucial aspect, and the Galaxy Note 20+ is expected to come with a substantial 4,500mAh battery. Coupled with fast charging and wireless charging capabilities, this would ensure that the device can easily last a full day of heavy usage.
Samsung normally launches their new Galaxy Note range of smartphones in August, it is not clear as yet on whether this year’s handsets are still on track for an August launch or whether they will be delayed slightly due to the coronavirus.
Software and Additional Features
The Galaxy Note 20+ will run on Android 10 out of the box, with Samsung’s One UI 2.5 layered on top. One UI 2.5 is expected to bring several new features and improvements, including enhanced multitasking capabilities, improved gesture navigation, and more customization options.
Another highlight of the Galaxy Note series is the S Pen, and the Note 20+ is expected to come with an upgraded version of this iconic stylus. The new S Pen might offer lower latency, making it feel more like writing on paper, and could include new features such as air gestures and enhanced note-taking capabilities.
Connectivity and Pricing
In terms of connectivity, the Galaxy Note 20+ will support 5G, ensuring that users can take advantage of the fastest mobile data speeds available. Other connectivity options will likely include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and NFC for mobile payments.
As for pricing, the Galaxy Note 20+ is expected to be a premium device, with prices likely starting around $1,200 and going up for higher storage variants. While this is on the higher end of the spectrum, the advanced features and capabilities of the device justify the cost.
