Now that Samsung has officially announced , the rumor mill can officially go into overdrive. Samsung is expected to launch a slew of new hardware, including an extra-large version of the Note 20, called the Note 20 Ultra, the , a (in bronze!) and the

Following in the footsteps of Huawei, OnePlus and Apple, the unveiling will take place completely online. 

It’s been a strange year for Samsung and other phone-makers, whose plans to go big into 5G and foldable phones have been largely torpedoed by the . Despite as a result of COVID-19 and the , Samsung reported on July 6 that its as a whole — just likely not due to phone sales.

New video hands-on leak: Galaxy Note 20 Ultra

A short  shows a device purported to be the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. We see a large-screen device, in black, with squared corners and a large camera module consistent with previous leaks. There’s also an S-Pen stylus to indicate this is part of the Note series.

The video demonstrates a few things:

  • S-Pen software includes using the (tweet below).
  • Android 10 operating system (which is expected, since ).
  • The S-Pen and speaker grille may move to the left side.
  • Large, raised camera module on the left with the appearance of substantially larger sensors compared to the Galaxy Note 10.

Samsung’s own website leaks show the Note 20 in sultry copper

On July 1, photos of a phone said to be the , captured from a Samsung website in Russia. Samsung seems to have accidentally leaked the image itself, and not just on one site. 

On Twitter, journalists and phone fans also chimed in that it appeared on Samsung Ukraine and Samsung China as well. Engadget’s Richard Lai suggested it might have been an error in the Asia Pacific region.

Is it copper? Is it bronze? A July 10 tweet from frequent Twitter leaker Evan Blass suggests that the color, Mystic Bronze, will come to the , too. Either way, the renders look beautiful so far. Seeing the play of light on the actual finish, in person, will make all the difference.

Aug. 20 sale date for the Note 20?

Now that one rumor has been confirmed — that the new phone will launch on Aug. 5 — there’s more credence now than ever that the Note 20 phones will go on sale Aug. 20. The rumored dates came early in June.

An Aug. 20 sale date also makes sense according to Samsung’s historical pattern. The annual August unveiling of nearly every Note phone is strategic, timed to predate Apple’s fall iPhone launch and set Samsung up for the holiday rush. It’s rumored that Apple may  as a result of the coronavirus.

What we know about the Note 20 specs

Twitter leaker Ice Universe dropped some spec details June 18 for the variant that could be known as the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. While the image is of the Note 10 Plus and not the suspected Ultra as some outlets (including this one) originally reported, it’s expected that the variant will have two curved screens, whisper-thin bezels to free up maximum screen space, and a slightly thinner body overall compared to the .

Confirmed: Yes, we know the ‘Galaxy Note 20’ exists

Without revealing the device name, Samsung announced in April that the company is . What we don’t officially know… is everything else. The company hasn’t announced the name — we’re going with Galaxy Note 20 in this article — price, announcement date, camera configuration or any new stylus tricks.

Two new Note 20 phones or three?

Last year, Samsung unleashed the and . It would be unusual not to see two new Notes this year. Numerous rumors support the expectation of a Note 20, Note 20 Plus and Note 20 Ultra, though the latest chatter is that there may just be the Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra. 

Rumors suggested that the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra would be a whopper, with a screen over 7 inches at the diagonal. 

Here are some possible Note 20 screen sizes promoted over the weeks, with details from ,  and , citing additional tweets from  that are no longer available (SamMobile ):

  • Galaxy Note 20: 6.4 to 6.7 inches (From Young: 6.42 inches tall, 2,345×1,084-pixel resolution)
  • Galaxy Note 20 Plus: 6.9 inches (From Pigtou: 165 millimeters tall, 77.2mm wide and 7.6mm thick)
  • Galaxy Note 20 Ultra: Over 7 inches (QHD Plus screen and 120Hz option can be on at the same time.)

Samsung is rumored to be working on an under-the-screen front-facing camera. Some think the Galaxy Note 20 could be the first phone to use it. Then again, maybe not.

Ultrafast 120Hz screen could save more battery than the S20 Ultra

If the high-end Galaxy S20 phones got a 120Hz screen, it’s a smart bet that the Note 20 phones will have it, too. Phones with high screen refresh rates are a trend in the premium market. Any screen with an option to refresh each pixel more often than the standard 60Hz (i.e., 60 times a second) promises liquid-smooth scrolling and gameplay.

Frequent phone leaker suggests a more «fine-tuned» version of the feature. Danish blog goes a little deeper, suggesting that the update will use 15% to 20% less energy than the Galaxy S20 Ultra, a phone whose review unit guzzled battery in 120Hz mode rather than sipped it. Here’s more information about the battery-saving 120Hz display technology, called .

5G is practically a given 

We scarcely need a rumor to feel certain that the Galaxy Note 20 line will support 5G speeds. The Galaxy S20 phones do, with a caveat. There are some variants of the standard S20 that are 4G LTE-only in certain regions, such as Australia. 

It may be that some carriers in some regions will also sell a 4G LTE version of the standard Galaxy Note 20, such as if the region is still building out its 5G networks, or if the carrier prefers a cheaper 4G version for its portfolio. Globally, we strongly suspect these will be known and marketed as 5G devices.

Here’s , and pointers on how to pick the best 5G carrier for you.
