The phone itself is decent, but the battery is endurance quite bad, especially if you use it intensely. It charges fast however so that's a boon.
The headphones are very good. AKG (the buds it comes with in some countries) will always be my go to in terms to audio-hardware, in any shape or form.
In my opinion, it's way overpriced for what it brings to the table and there are other options out there who are less pricey so unless you are forced by other circumstances look around a bit, because you might find better phones cheaper from other brands.

Im curious, is it possible to add "5mp macro" to these phone cameras, then I hope they are gonna do it soon : )
I used M51 macro and loved it.. was superb performance.. I think...
I'll be waiting for a new phone model with 8K video, IP68 and "5mp macro"... ; )

The Samsung Note20, like all devices from Samsung, is loaded with apps that you cannot deny permissions to or remove. My devices (Note20, Galaxy 10, Tab A) were all hacked and I physically had to wrestle control of my phone back from someone connected on the backend. It took several minutes before they gave up and I was able to disconnect from the network and restart. Samsung Customer Support told me, on a recorded line, that I "agreed to the terms" and "nobody made (me) buy the phone".
The Contacts app does not sync, will not import, and says in the "About Contacts" that it is not connected to a network. Samsung Technical Support went through deleting cache with me, but that did not work. I was told the only other option is to do a hard reset. I'm not interested in spending hours resetting up my device and going back in to dozens of apps to remove permissions that Samsung gives themselves. Most of them are greyed out anyway where I have no choice in what they have access to.
I will never buy another Samsung device as long as these spy, data theft, and control tactics continue. I've been using Galaxy devices for more than a decade. It's a shame.

I really find this phone a missed opportunity. I'm still okay with having a plastic back panel because I use a phone casing anyway. But the screen is not significantly smaller than the Note20 Ultra, which is rather ironic because the Note10 has a much smaller 6.3" screen compared to the Note10+'s 6.8" screen. At 6.7", it is exactly the same screen size as the S20+ and that phone has a 120Hz screen refresh rate albeit at 1080p and microSD card support. Unless if I care about having a stylus on a smartphone, it's hard to see the appeal of buying this smartphone.

Battery endurance is pathetic for a phone of this sort. I somewhat regret having bought it. I am not a gamer nor use the phone to watch movies, yet it barely makes the day. On the other side, it is very heavy for having such a horrible battery. And it DOES feel heavy and uncomfortable in the hand. My Galaxy Note8 and Galaxy Note10, both with significantly smaller batteries give better results and feel solo much better in the hands. Unusable expensive excrement, which is a pity because I'm not too happy about having just Chinese phones in the market.

For how expensive the phone is. It feels cheap, and the usbc come out so easily when using it while cable charging.

I have found it to be a very frustrating phone, battery does not last, charging is a problem constantly giving warning about moisture detected and can't charge. Therefore my overall rating is that this is a useless but expensive piece of work....

Samsung is top notch build quality.
