Note 10 or Note 20?

[technutcounselor]

I am returning the N20 Ultra due to getting my trade rejected and not wanting to spend the full $1300. Anyway, which would you buy, the N10 or N20 instead? I don't see a ton of difference other than more storage in the N10 and a newer chip in the N20 and it has a plastic back (WTF?). Any thoughts?

Really don't blame you !

Me personally would choose the Note 10+
If you referring to regular models the Note 20

N10+ with sd card support, qhd display, tof sensor (if you use), glass body, no camera bump, 256gb base storage. Anytime over N20.

I traded my 10+ for the note 20 and couldn't be happier the size is better for me. I don't care how it's built the phone is sweet and smooth as butter much better than the 10+ was.

For me, the Note 10+ will likely be my last slab phone.

My next phone will be a foldable. #duo?

As much as I like my Note 20, I think you're getting more for your money with the Note 10+ unless having the 865+ is really a big deal for you. The Note 20 does have this "it goes good in the hands" size and the cameras are indeed good bit the lack of SD card support and QHD resolution make it hard to recommend over the 10+. However, you will get longer software updates with the Note 20.

I want that too. I haven't been this interested in a phone since probably the note 7

Even though, the Note 20 has less storage, I would recommend it. I have the regular Note10, kept it, traded in my Note9 for the Note20, so I have the best of both worlds in my opinion. At least with the Note 20, will get longer updates. Just wish I had gotten the green one instead of the "copper" one.

The Note 10+ is giving you more base storage, expandable storage, qhd display, gorilla glass 6, 12gb RAM, super fast charging and a more premium build quality over the Note 20.

Note 20 gives you slightly better telephoto camera, reduced latency on s-spen, faster processor and 1 year longer updates.

I think you get a much better and future proofed device with the Note 10+.

The Note 20 reduced latency Spen is exclusive to the Ultra model.

The Note 20 reduced latency Spen is exclusive to the Ultra model.

It was reported that the latency was reduced from 45ms on the Note10 to 9ms on the Ultra. The Note 20 was also improved over the Note 10 to 26ms.

Yes and it's barely a perceivable difference.

Yup, agree. I had the Note 20 Ultra and didn't notice any difference. I guess someone who does more artistic things with the s-pen might see the lower latency as a valuable upgrade. For the majority, the higher latency on the Note 10 is just fine.

I was referring to the regular Note 20. I could feel the difference between the Note10+ and the Note 20 Ultra. I could see it not mattering to some but the Ultra feels about as close as you can get to normal writing and it's actually improved my writing on the screen.

I'm not a heavy S-Pen user but can see if you use it often that you will notice the difference between the Note10+ and the Ultra, maybe even on the regular Note 20 too. I don't notice a huge difference with a 120hz screen either, so it just might be that my old eyes can't distinguish the improvements anymore lol

 

[srgonu]

I use Spen decently and I have Tab S7+. Though I see difference in user experience with 120hz display from my Note 10+, I don't see much difference in Spen experience.

I want the smaller Note 10 for the size. Would like to get the Snapdragon dual-sim version but it seems to be priced the same as the Note 20! Why? Demand or lack of supply?
