Note 20 Ultra pre-order thread!

[Nostromo79]

The S20 Ultra has a 16GB/512GB option where, so far as I've seen, the Note20 Ultra does not. When I'm using the Note10 Plus and the S20 Ultra within the same hour, the S20 Ultra feels (subjectively speaking) more agile than the six-months older Note10 Plus.

 

[Nostromo79]

But I didn't. I am sticking with my S10+ 512GB ceramic.

Wise choice from everything I've seen.

I couldn't wait!! Got the watch 3 for 50% off too!

Your screenshot shows a $150 discount on the Watch 3. But if you preregistered, it should have been a $200 discount.

Yea between the gear S3 and the active 2 I have I really don't need anymore smartwatches. I'm a sucker for tech and a good deal. Combine the two and it's hard for me to resist

I think I may hold off on the watch a sec. We don't have support for its full functionality yet...if I heard correctly through a failed multi tasking attempt at work.

I have to agree that's a major pet peeve. Don't give mediocre space and then limit the color options. I think that this hurts some of their sells. You shouldn't have to decide between color options and storage unless of course it's oos.

Is the 128 GB really enough storage? My Note 10 plus is a 256, and my Note 9 is 512 GB. All my photos are on SD card, apps only on Internal storage. I wish they would drop the 128 & just did the 256 and 515 if they were going to limit color options!

Honestly this is the first I'm even hearing that 128Gb on the Note was a thing.

Was the Note10+ available with only 128Gb in the States too?

PSA for Verizon customers. Just chatted with them and the unlocked version is a go. I guess time will tell if it is a major, major go.

It's certainly a counterintuitive strategy, especially as they relentlessly flog the Mighty Note20 Ultra and that pinkish-Mystic Bronze color, to not make colors more widely available. As for this year's color palette, I wouldn't commission Samsung to build a rainbow.

Yeah no option for 128gb over here.
Well 4 weeks ago I said I'm sticking with the Note 10+ for another year and now look at me, A 256gb Note 20 Ultra in white with Buds live (hope they're in white too) are on their way on the 21st!
The Note really does know how to pull my strings (and my wallet)

I'm jealous. Seriously sticking with my Note 10+.

Was hoping to save some money with a trade in, but it doesn't look like they accept dead pixels...

Ooooo you said seriously, I said that and look where it got me, you can't say 'seriously' then tab out to some other web page, it grinds on you lol.

 

[screwhead728]

Note 10+ was 256GB/512GB

 

[Francisco328]

Are there going to be 4g note 20 ultras?

 

[Nostromo79]

Are there going to be 4g note 20 ultras?

If you are really counting on there being one, probably not.

 

[buzzy3970]

No. If so it can't really be considered an ultra.

Are there going to be 4g note 20 ultras?

 

[Gary02468]

Is the 128 GB really enough storage?

I'm only using 96GB of my 256GB N10+. I also have a 256GB SD card that I use for media; it's a little over half full. So I think I'll be ok with only 128GB on the N20U.

 

[buzzy3970]

Unlocked S and Note phones have been working for years now with Verizon. The only feature you use is native video calling from Verizon, but with duo integration no one really cares lol.

Ordered mine today, US unlocked Note 20 Ultra 512GB, mystic black.....excited for this new device. Keeping my Note 10+ 256GB and traded in my Note 9. A ton of free goodies too.

 

[DaBlackman619]

Question I'm going back and forth with getting unlocked or getting Tmobile through samsung. How long does it take for unlocked to receive updates?

 

[evohicks]

No. If so it can't really be considered an ultra.

What's the point in having a 5g phone if your carrier/network does not support it, and probably won't for the foreseeable future?
I would have bought the Ultra 4g if it was available for sure, would have been around £100 less.
