Note 20/Note 20 Ultra accessories discussion.

[mozman]

Are the left right sides of the case flat or pointed edged ?

The sides are a bit tapered towards the rear of the case. I'll show pictures when I get a chance.

Pics of the side, showing slight tapering towards the back.

I was interested in buying this case then noticed in the amazon pictures that the back edge the area behind the USB port etc is raised. I think this will fatigue my pinky finger when using the device.

Hello!

I have this cable, (www.amazon.com/dp/B01LNA0XCU?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) but it does NOT do fast charging with my note 20 ultra. Which stinks cuz it worked on my pixel 2xl and it's not like, a junky cable.

I have tried a bunch of things, and it does not work with either the wall charger or car charger, but using my one that came with my phone makes everything with correctly.

Does anybody have any recommendations of a good cable I can get off of Amazon that will definitely work with fast and super fast charging on the note 20 ultra?

Thanks!

That's really attractive for a phone holder.

I have three AiBOCN metal easels, that I have had since my Samsung Galaxy s5. I guess I haven't looked at many phone holders over the years but yours looks very nice to me.

Are headphones considered accessories?

The Grado SR 80 and 325 work well with the phone, so one can assume the whole SR lineup would. The Ultrasone Pro 900, although not designed for this use, works very well.

Which better-protecting Note 20 Ultra cases are also belt clip compatible? (aside from the Otterbox Defender?) Yes, not many people wear a belt clip, probably because it looks dorky, but one doesn't exactly look like a fashion plate wearing huge headphones, so it's a moot point for me. The belt clip just works for me; when one looks at the phone fairly often to either change the playlist order or switch to the next program when it nears the conclusion, it's pretty ideal. It also protects the most vulnerable part of the headphones; where the cord meets the phone. I've worn a belt clip since at least 2005, when it came with the Creative's mp3 player.

The only downside; 95% of my S5 drops came from the phone popping out of the holster, especially if I left it in the holster while on the go. I'm careful to put the S20 back in the pocket when I'm on the move (with no headphones in).

Check out this place https://www.encased.com/attribute/device-model/galaxy-note-20-ultra/. I have been using their belt clip holsters for many years. Prefer them to any other brands. Their cases are average, but holsters are very good, not bulky, hold securely and easy to take the phone out and put it back. The customer service is good. They also make holsters for other popular cases. Advice, check their Amazon store, usually cheaper compare to their own site.

If it's "Better Protecting" that you want, you can always get my (Ford Super Duty) Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro! I've been using them on all my Notes since my Note 4 because I'd rather protect my phone than have it look pretty! Have dropped every one of them at least once and NEVER had any damage - that's a Note 4, two Note 5's, two Note 7's a Note 8, a Note 9 and my current Note 20U! (and it does come with the Belt Clip holster - read the text)

Anyone have the Samsung Pro ear buds? How is the call quality and the music, along with the noise canceling. Are they significantly better than the Plus buds?

Anyone have the Samsung Pro ear buds? How is the call quality and the music, along with the noise canceling. Are they significantly better than the Plus buds?

The call quality seems to be decent, nobody complains to me when I use them, I mostly use my earbuds for music. They sound better then the buds plus, but it's not a huge difference, but noticable. I myself would pick them over the plus, they do sound better. Noise canceling works about as expected and better if you get a good fit which leads me to the negative.

People are having fit issues with the included tips. They don't fit in ear as snug, can lose the seal and in turn effects the noise canceling and ambient sound. The buds+ fit in the ear better and from watching the reviews on youtube I agree it's because samsung removed the wing tip the buds+ have on the outer edge of the bud that helped hold the bud in place in the ear. There is suppose to be a fix for it, I have ordered some and according to the reviews looks promising. It's a expensive fix, $20. You need to apparently according to several reviews replace the tips.. several reviews say finally the pros fit right. I'll find out next week sometime.

With that said, I still prefer the pros. The ambient sound works awesome. I can listen to music at a reasonable volume and talk to people no problem. If I want to cancel the outside noise, that can be changed also to noise cancelation. That of course depends on the tips sealing in your ear correctly. I had a couple sets of plus buds sitting around so I was able to take advantage of the $50 trade in for the buds+ thru samsung, plus I added the education discount that I don't qualify for and got another $20 off, but samsungs high quality internet let it go thru, so be it. I paid $129 for them after trade in and education discount.

Here's link for the tips, you can see the reviews yourself. Hope they are right, as they are expensive for tips IMO.

Edit.. Using for talking on phone is like other ear buds, it will pick up background noise. Works good in car or quiet environment

Are those tips like the comply foam ones ? I bought those because it was said those fit better, but I don't like that you have to squeeze the tips and then put them in your ears. Feels weird.lol

Samsung protective standing cover here (rugged) always get that one and in silver, looks cool, bit bulky but I need the protection.

Both kickstands busted the day I used this case. Just do t Bend them too far back. I like the silicone grips on the rugged case.

The sound is actually slightly better compared to the the plus and live buds. The ANC feature is pretty good and block out quite a bit of sound. I also found the Bluetooth connection with the pros the best and most stable.Hiwever keep in mind the firm factor of the pros may be problematic with the fit with some people. The buds plus stay in the best due to the wings. All three galaxy buds: plus, pros, and live all offer great call quality and music is really clear. Lastly, due to the way all three fit a bit differently you may prefer one over the other. Passive noise cancellation is also dependant on how tightly they fit in yer ear.
