Samsung took the wraps off its newest pair of premium phones, the Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra, during its virtual Unpacked press event today. Priced at $999 and $1,299, respectively, the phones are one of the most expensive Galaxy phones in Samsung's lineup - despite the COVID-19 outbreak causing an economic downturn - and they join the ranks of other premium phones that are available as well. (In the UK the Note 20 costs £849 and the Note 20 Ultra starts at £1,179. Australian prices aren't yet available, but that converts to about AU$1,390 and AU$1,800.)
These phones include the iPhone 11 Pro, the OnePlus 8 Pro and the Pixel 4 XL, all of which start at $900 (£799, AU$1,279) and above. Compared to its rivals, the Note 20 stands out in a few ways. It has 5G connectivity (a feature it shares with only the OnePlus 8 Pro), it can record 8K video and it has the signature S Pen stylus that Galaxy Note phones are known for.
