Anyone else returning their Note 20 Ultras?

[bandofbrothers2112]

Screen time was on about 1 hour, 40 mins when i plugged it in so my usage has been very light but still was draining a lot in standby.

My phone was draining 1% every 15 mins it seems when looking at the AOD. Maybe I have too many widgets that are consistently using battery.

Yep widgets can be a culprit.

My AOD is always set to tap to wake.

Yeah might change mine to that as well. Gone full dark mode too

Absolutely not, this Note 20 Ultra is a good bit more of an upgrade than I expected, I'm loving it.

I own a note 10+ and after using the Note 20 ultra for two days, I didn't see enough to convince me to ditch the 10+.

The 20 ultra is a great phone but it was little things that bothered me.

- No pre-installed screen protector. I don't want to deal with this especially on a curve display. The dome glass seems to be the only really good solution but its a huge pain to install and get it right. Then i usually end up getting webbing on the side and have to do it again

- The pen on the left side. Its weird and bothers me.

- Camera makes noises when i move phone sometimes. Sounds cheap and annoys me on such a expensive device.

- The camera bump is ok but I wonder about exposure to damages because its a big surface area.

Still have Note 10 Plus (now wife). So far, I'm loving my N20U. Traded S8Plus (wife) with AT&T Promo deal.

If you don't want feel like you're in this alone I'll say that I'm returning mine.

The S-pen on the left side makes me not want to use it at all (the S-pen). If that's the case I mine as well keep what I have and throw the Note up for sale.

S20U camera makes the same noise, not an issue

 

[svtcobra]

I'm not understanding the s-pen placement complaints. Being a breaker and all. Maybe I missed Samsungs ads and the zillion reports about its new location before it went on sale. Somebody didn't do their homework... As far as any camera problems, that I understand, hate them, never use them. IMO I would remove them from and fill in the holes with the silly putty.. Lol

It's the image stabilization, even expensive mirrorless cameras that make the Note 20 look cheap will do it.

I appreciate the Info as well. Sets my mind at ease.

Someone will shoot me for saying this, but I will only think about that when I have to fight the urge to go back to an iPhone. I switched just for this phone and... I don't want to go back. old habits die hard but this is a fantastic device. Well worth the switch.

Although I am happy with my choice, I will say flagship phones like this are too expensive for most of us to keep if we're not thrilled with it.

You can get Ringke or others that make a plastic film protector if you don't like Whitestone.

Lol , I dealt with the spen on right and never complained about, now its on left which is more Comfortable for me.

At least not until the Note 21 Ultra comes out

Exactly!

Same here. To me if feels like a worthy upgrade.

 

[BrwnSuga3]

Nope! I love mine, I sold my 10+ awhile ago and got the S20 Ultra, I hated that phone so I'm glad I sold it and got the Note 20 Ultra

 

[evohicks]

I have had little time on my Note 20 Ultra but what time I have had its been good. I need to give the camera some good usage for sure. The S Pen makes no difference to me if its on left or right as I will soon remember, the power button on most phones is on the right and used to be on the Note phones before the 10+ so no issue there. I've found nothing to warrant a return as yet.

I did do my homework and knew ahead of time but its wasn't until I actually used it that i knew it was a no go for me. Like another poster said, its like I dont want to use it anymore
