   Like the Galaxy S20, Samsung is going all "ultra" with its new Galaxy Note for 2020. Say hello to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Not only is the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra the most powerful phone in Samsung's portfolio right now, it is also officially its first 5G phone in India. There is also a vanilla Galaxy Note 20 for someone looking to get the "new" Note experience at a lower price. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G price in India is Rs 1,04,999. The Galaxy Note 20 meanwhile has been launched at Rs 77,999. We will have more to say about the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy Note 20 in our full reviews coming soon. For now, let us quickly unbox Samsung's new flagship Note for 2020 and see what is new - and what is exciting. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

   The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's design is largely inspired from the Galaxy S20 Ultra, though this is the first time Samsung is using a textured haze finish on any of its flagship device. This feels smooth - think, matte frosted glass-like - to the touch, not to mention extremely premium. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

   As is usually the case, the new Note is also getting brand new colours, and the showstopper version this year is mystic bronze. Samsung has done gold/bronze colourways before, but the one on the Note 20 Ultra paired with satin finish looks and feels something else entirely. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra in India also comes in a more conventional mystic black. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

   An important differentiator between the new Note and the S20 phones is its boxier design. That is just a Note thing. Samsung is also upgrading the build materials in the new Note. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is the first commercial smartphone to feature Corning's latest Gorilla Glass Victus (or Corning Gorilla Glass 7). The new Note uses it on the front as well as on the back. The outer frame is made of metal. Although the new Note has the same rectangular camera housing as the Galaxy S20 Ultra, the individual cameras themselves have bold outlines that make them stand out. Also, learning from the Galaxy S20 Ultra's idiosyncrasies, Samsung has put in laser autofocus in the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, that again makes the camera module stand out.

   Completing the package is a USB Type-C, stereo speakers, dual-SIM/micro-SD card hybrid tray, S-Pen silo, and stereo speakers. The new Note, like most Galaxy flagship phones is also IP68-certified. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

   The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra has the same screen size, panel, resolution, and refresh rate as the Galaxy S20 Ultra. We are looking at a 6.9-inch QHD+ display with a 1440 x 3088-pixel resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. Like the Galaxy S20 Ultra, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra also supports 120Hz at Full-HD resolution only. The panel is further certified to view HDR10+ content.

   Despite being 5G-ready, the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra in India is still powered by Samsung's Exynos 990 processor. In the US, Samsung has launched the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 865+ processor. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra in India comes with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. This is expandable.

   The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's S-Pen offers the most true-to-life note-taking experience yet, according to Samsung. This starts with the latency. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's latency has been reduced by nearly 80% compared to last year's model - it is 9ms now. This year's new S-Pen feature is "anywhere" actions allowing users to use gestures to control as many as five functions on their phones. Samsung Notes app is also getting updates including exporting handwritten notes into PowerPoint slides and ability to make handwritten notes and annotations on imported PDFs.

   Samsung is also extending its partnership with Microsoft to allow Note 20 Ultra users to sync notes directly to OneDrive and/or Outlook. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will also be one of the first few devices in the market to get Xbox Game Pass and subsequently Project xCloud access from September 15, though the latter will not be available in India at launch.
